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.

Win-Win Situation tbh. Naniwa got his Code S Spot and still 25k.

I understand that Leenock's aggressive builds were a valid strategy. However, if I was in Naniwa's shoes, I would want to murder everyone in the building. He's feeling like, for the most part, he never got to execute his strategies. That's got to be unbelievably frustrating for him.

I haven't watched any GSL finals but this was probably the most dissapointing final I've ever seen. But yeah, well played by leenock I guess.


It was quite similar to GSL May's final.
Protoss has only one build, zerg counters it and wins 4-0.

I kinda like leenock looks like a nice and happy fellow but i hate his strategy early game, maybe it's the only way to win against naniwa at this mlg!

What else do you do against protoss Forge FE? Just let him have it? You have to be like that in the early game to punish it severely.

Congrats Leenock, well fought by Naniwa. Too bad Leenock was able to figure out Naniwa's build.


And Naniwa wasn't able to adapt to his 1base timings.. weird choice of maps, imho

Fuck beautiful macro matches, if these are the tactics to win the tournament (and 50.000 dollars) I'd do it too.

Also; It's not called 'cheese', it's called seriously clever early pressure.
Starcraft is a mix between chess, poker and a Michael Bay movie.

Fuck. Would have loved to see Naniwa take another MLG. You know how hard he takes second place...would also have loved to see two foreigner MLG wins in a row, and a foreigner win at a tournament SO stacked with koreans would have been sick sick good.


leenock's zvp is just sick good though, haha.

naniwa shouldn't be disappointed with his performance...second place at MLG over people like MMA, MVP, Nestea, Huk, Idra, all the other code S koreans here? He played really well :O
