God I hate PVP.

Pretty sloppy on White-Ra's part though. Naniwa is feeble and predictable.

Why didn't he pull his probes!

Massive stream lag during the last game of Nani and Ra. Awesome play by Nani though.

It was all probes if anything that makes it even less surprising considering its PvP

Wow, what a game, back and forth. If White-Ra had held that counterattack it would have been an epic game with an uncertain result.

Naniwa just has much better PvP than any other foreigner, I think. Maybe Huk, but he isn't looking so hot any more.

Yeah but that's why I guess he doesn't do so hot in korea. He is using this build every pvp, right? We saw how that panned out vs leenock.


PvP... Leenock?

Don't you remember MLG? He went nexus first everytime vs leenock and because of that lost. My point has nothing to do with the matchup he's playing, the point I'm trying to make is that naniwa's achilles heel is usually his predictability. If he had more builds he probably could do very well in korea.

Is white-ra 100% advancing to the next round or there is a chance he might not advance?

Nani had 3 and all of them targeted units while white ras randomly fired. Also he constantly blinked away the damaged stalker.

In other words...micro.

Tournaments need to publish their tie breakers rules with big bold letters somewhere. It's been like this for over a year now, when will they learn...

Hard to get hyped for a PvP, and WhiteRa kinda botched the engagement on his side.

If it's head to head then map score is irrelevant, and if Strelok beats TiTan then it's a 3-way tie so they will have to place tie-breakers.....someone correct me if im wrong

That as well. The forcefield donut that crunched two immortals on top of eachother really did it though, both of them were effectively doing nothing at all. So good.
