Would be a good match no doubt, but I feel like results speak louder than a 1v1 showmatch. First foreigner to win Code S will be the king. Stephano needs to go back to Korea before he quits sc2 to give it another shot. | ||

Also I don't think Naniwa/MvP have the best relationship after he basically said they barely practice, don't work as hard, etc. he said they barely practiced with him not that they didn't practice at all. | ||

The problem is NOT though that Naniwa easily dies to cheese, because as we all know his builds and style are solid as fuck. In that regard he's not more in danger of losing to cheese than any other player. And tilting is also not a problem for him. He keeps his cool quite well, most of the time. NaNiwa doesnt cheese? Why don't you ask NesTea at MLG Winter Arena :D? Nani went nexus first 2 games in a row, and then double proxy gate, and nestea did hatch first, the mindgames... I could easily see NaNiwa making it to Ro4, Mvps TvP has never been impressive, and NaNiwa have beaten every top korean zerg, and another PvP? foreigners always win PvP, thats just how the world works, i'm sorry. | ||

I dont know about you guys, but im feeling a ro4 here, when we swedes go GSL we go ro4 aight? July is probably the easiest for Naniwa, followed by MVP and Leenock but I'll never count players of their caliber out. Naniwa probably has the edge in a PvP with Hero as well but it's very hard to predict. | ||

But the GSL was a lot less tough when they made their runs, compared to what it is now. I think this run gives Naniwa a decent argument for best foreigner ever. Not by itself, but in combination with his other achievements. For what it is worth, I would still put HuK's achievements a little ahead of Nani's. All Nani needs to do is win a Ace match for Startale to catch up, or a 1-2 more seasons in GSL. | ||

Very wp by Naniwa. He did do a ceremony against Genius, just it was mostly missed by the cameras. | ||

Glad to see Naniwa overcame his mental block and is now doing great, following in the footsteps of Jinro, IdrA and HuK. Hopefully all his days of probe rushing are now firmly behind him. Yet people call MKP the "Best player in the world" when he hasn't been past the round of 16 in a Code S season in a year. | ||

I agree that the level of play is way better now and the gap is bigger, but they were still massive achievements in their own context. Still, it wasn't unheard of at that time, that a foreigner did so well against koreans. It is now. | ||
