Here we go again. This weekend is about good games and good fun. Don't rain on that parade. Play nice guys. Here's the very standard and friendly:

- NO Balance Whine.
- NO Player Bashing.
- NO Caster Bashing.
- NO BM whatsoever.

Breaking these rules (from pg 166 forward) will be met with severe punishment.

Not trying to be racist at all here, but I have several friends from Stockholm and they all kinda act like that. Theyre great dudes but they come off as very weird/awkward until you get to know them(some even after you know them). From my experience at least, Swedes like Jinro seem to be the minority.


Haha wow... I can say that your are completly wrong. Do you also find SaSe, SjoW, ThorZaiN, HayprO and MorroW wierd too?


Morrow and Haypro seem to comepletely reserved in public and are never talking(although i've read that Haypro is a ridiculously funny guy). For the others I can't speak much on, and I'm obviously not talking about the Sweedish people as a whole, just all the swedes i know.

Another 2 base all-in from NaNiwa.



Seriously, people saying that he is allin on 2 base. I don't get it :p. 2base allin doesn't exist.


Nah this is definitively an all in.

To really identify an all in just ask yourself something.

If he loses the battle will be be behind or in an unwinnable position? If its the later its is an all in

Unless you play zerg, that statement holds true at any given point in any game. So I guess every P and T are all in in every mid/late game scenario.


?? Please explain yourself. If you do a push while you expand, lose the battle, youa re not in an unwinnable position. if you cut probes, not expand, and use all your income for army while a Zerg is on 3 base economy if you lose you are in a terrible position.

Well I suppose I equated losing a battle, to losing a sizable amount of army, which might not be entirely accurate.

Either way, 90% of the time I see someone call all in, it tends to be a scenario where the push is designed to do a certain amount of damage but not necessarily outright kill the opponent. The way people use all in, it's just a timing push with a bigger emphasis on being able to destroy shit and lesser emphasis on having an immediate follow up. They both look to achieve just about the same thing, so I guess I'm fine with people calling it all in only it's sad that people do that to try and take away from great players achievements, when they clearly have no idea what they're on about.

Yes swedes maybe tend to be shy.

But man not like that!? If i was Naniwa there i would be brave in front of the crowd after a awesome 2-0 victory!

He never seems happy =/

at all people saying 2 base naniwa you see him play global invitational he take more bases there be quiet plz you play to win it's a tournament and many moneys if 2 base wins you 2 base.

also people love mc when all he do was 2 base with 6 gateway mass sentry long ago, show nani love he play good game 1 base 2 base 3 base etc it dun matter.


also I dont think naniwa can show true personality in interview cause team america col will smite him if he might say something bad cause all they care is image they dun care personality.


People are like this: "Oh, all he does is one base all in" , "Oh, all he does is two bases all in"

If naniwa made 3 bases every game they would be like "Oh, all he does is three bases all in".

There is no inherently bad thing about doing a strat over another except the win factor.
Mess with the best, die like the rest.

what's wrong with 2 base? if it exploits a hole in the other player's strat who cares? a win is a win.


Some people like watching good games, and a lot of people don't think 8 minute games are good.


I would LOVE to see you go up there and force a 40 minute game on 5-6 bases. Against DRG. At MLG. For $50,000.

Would you risk that amount of money, just to prove that you can go up to 5 bases and play a long game?



I never said it's not a good strategy, I said I don't think it's fun to watch.

Sure if I'm playing I'll do whatever to win, but as a viewer I don't like watching games like that.


Why continue to watch then? If you don't like it you have every right to turn off the stream and do something else, rather than complain about it.

hm.i don't get the interview bashing towards naniwa. the guy obviously thinks being rude and short is the best way to keep his mindset right in tournaments. fe. in SOTGs and interviews where he has the time he's always been more informative and mannered. allthough i like people who do sports or profession better if they always are mannered and informative, i can't blame them for not being it if it doesn't bring them the mindset to win games in a sport/profession they beforehand spent 6 to 12 hours a day practicing.

PS. i do think it's different for football, american football, basketball and any other major sport, because players got several millions behind them in sponsorship deals; in eSports that is far from being reality. but it also differs a lot between players of these sports being aproachable, mannered and talkative if there's no camera around.

I think Naniwa being unlikeable and awkward will actually build him a cult following that enjoy his deadpan style.


IMO there needs to be a show, like state of the game, except made with Naniwa, Idra, Destiny, and Incontrol, and they just troll everyone in the sc2 community.

So crazy. I think its plausible that Naniwa is the best player in the world right now, I don't know what else to conclude from these results.

One tourney doesn't make you the best player?


Come now Dystopia, getting ragdolled for a couple of months doesn't matter, all that counts is one good weekend!

Extended series sucks a lot of the excitement out of these last games, unless someone is actually able to overturn it.
