yah total deal breaker, just like pointy elbows
Or small wrists.
Dude. The guy has fur on half on his arms which just look messed against his paaaalee skin. He's basically two colours.
So he's a little hairy. It's a side-effect of manliness. MAN MODE! I'M A MAAAAAAAAAAAN~
Having some hair is fine. But maybe he should start doing some of his dailies outdoors once spring rolls around and get some colour on his skin. Think of the extra 'viewers' he'd get :D

What's funny is that people say that GSL > foreign tournaments because they involve a lot of player specific preparation, yet bash a player because he can't get into Code A. Do people realize what kind of tournament the Code A qualifier is...?

Bomber, MMA, MVP, Ganzi, Taeja. More that I'm forgetting.
Puma is good, but not easily top 5.
ganzi and taeja havent won shieeet
skill isn't based on the amount of tournaments one has won, sorry. pumas wins are in international tourneys too, while he can't qualify for Code A
MMA couldn't qualify for Code A either, that's an incredibly stupid argument
so is your statement of skill equating to number of international tournament wins.
Yet people are calling Naniwa a top 5 protoss.
Why can we ignore puma achievements yet praise Naniwa?
To be fair, Naniwa has received a lot of hype that probably wont hold.
Won an MLG, second place in an MLG, TSL 3 and HSC 3 (in which both he "should" have won). What is this "hype" you are talking about? :p
That's wonderful and all, but I doubt he's going to post results as he goes on. Most of his builds have been figured out. If he doesn't innovate he'll be destroyed. He also had a rough time with the GSL, and will probably continue to have one. The hype is the amount of blown out of reality statements regarding his skill. For example, this top 5 protoss business. Seeing as you're the only one to reply to this, part of my statement is already true. If I had said that a couple weeks ago there would've been a shitstorm. Not any more.
Hype is for what to come and he has been fairly solid and delivering for some time now. Calling hype now is just wrong by my definition of the word.

game 1 huk went for fost Dt which was countered by fast robo by Seplo. there was a midgame enagagement, seiplo wins but takes tons of damage. Seiplo macros up to even worker counts and then just goes and kills huk with a better army.
game 2, Bot players go for blink with oberserves into expand builds. Seiplo wins due to some better engagements and superior macro.
It wasn't so much an upset as an example of a time when banking on micro can fail. Huk still played solidly but chose to sacrifice his economy both games which turned out to be the wrong choice.

Yeah well, that's true, but pretty much every good player has managed to qualify. It's hell in that qualifier, but good players have managed to consistently overcome hell.
