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.

Le sigh.


Naniwa didn't adapt at all. Leenock was the better player.


Do the same build 6 games in a row expecting Leenock not to cheese, lose $25,000.

Right?

lol. Leenock actually is destroying TL. I'm impressed.

This puts Nani in an interesting position. An awful, awful lot of people are going to claim he doesn't deserve the code S he gets from this. The Nestea drama, getting bounced from code A a billion times, and his compete failure to adapt in the final games there... none of that looks good.

I think he has one shot, and one shot only when he walks into code S. If he proves himself, he deserves it. If he's bounced again, I think that's just about it for him in the court of public opinion, especially to the netizens.

How can people cry about cheese when Nani literally FFE'd every single game? rofl.


Whats so odd about using a standard build every single game? I could scream cheese at nani if he would have proxied gateways every single game

its not really that he ff'e'd its that he went Nexus First ffe..... Why should he be able to expand first every game? Even zergs now a days get punished for hatch firsts. Their is no reason to not punish Naniwa for going nexus first almost every game. I mean nexus first on XNC?? Really? he deserved to get roach rushed that game...

Sidenote I say all of this as a toss player who was rooting for Naniwa.

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.


I'd rather see a foreigner win from the open bracket like leenock did, makes him more legit(not to take anything away from Naniwa, he did great).

why are people QQ about cheese, leenock had a different opening every game, and 3 out of 4 wins he transitioned into a macro game from his opening

if anything you should QQ about naniwa doing the exact same opening every single game and fail

Almost every person calling leenock "cheesy" must have forgotten that leenock is better at macro than naniwa...
This entire thread is QQ a mod should probably close it.

wasnt there some controversy involving Naniwa pausing on Nestea, other weird shit happening, and then calling Nestea an idiot in an interview after beating him?

Oh man, so horrible games. hopefully we get some better maps so carp like this doesn't happen.
But yeah being a Korean gamer is very imba. If you're a non-korean gamer you have to balance your game playing with earning money and your real life. If you're Korean you just sit around playing games all day eating 2 cent ramyun and becoming gosu.

both have good micro (naniwa the better) but those retarded strategies keep them down. gg I guess.

Now I understand how he beat MMA. Leenock is exeptional in punishing greedy players.
So, a 16 years old wins a major tournament utilizing cheesing(in the good way) against great players. That reminds of a certain someone.


you dont need to hide the comparison people have made it already forever.
