July and Leenock will only try harder now to get first in the group just to not face nani. Good games comming up! Don't know man . Naniwa's PvZ has been shaky in the past and July and Leenock could bring some mean ZvP with the amount of practise they will be puting in the Ro8 .
My favorite thing about July is that he's always a wildcard... you can't really ever say he's in a "slump". It's like playing against a coin-flip... sometimes he will just roll over and die, other times he will obliterate you  Not necessarily great for his career, but it sure is entertaining as a fan!!
Kind of reminds me of one of those slot-machine limit breaks from Final Fantasy games.

I kinda agree with him, PvP is the only matchup foreigners can take on koreans evenly and PvT seems to be favoring toss at the moment. That's really helped his run so far, obviously he's earned it too.

So naniwa will now play the guy who gets in second place in group B, which consists of July, MVP, Leenock and Hero.
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. Don't know if July is that easy for Naniwa. Naniwa could get thrown off by Julys playstyle. But I agree, Naniwa could make RO4.
I don't know what to predict any more. July is certainly capable of beating Naniwa and vice versa.

I'm still a bit baffled that NaNi is 8-1 in Code S this season. Wasn't he like 0-10 before?

"Who is more impressive to you: Naniwa or Genius?"
That was a weird question seeing as Naniwa just 4-0'ed his group and beat Genius.

Yeah i know, but he has simply achived the most and he is not what he used to be, but all hope isnt lost yet so he might keep the spot. tbh place 1-4 are extremly hard to predict at this moment, but considering all year(s) of sc2, he is my nr 1 still.

I dunno, but Nani making Ro8 feels bigger than Idra/Jinro because the game was so new back then and way less refined.
I kinda disagree, what Jinro did two seasons in a row was simply magic!

Has he? How many koreans has he beaten recently?

That was in Code A, not even Code S. Pretty baffing, I agree. But nice to see a foreigner actually making good on their seed.
