I'm so happy he got to round of 4. This is where he was last November, and his wrists have only gotten worse since then. So damn impressive.

Seeing all of the disrespect for MVP is appalling. First, considering MVP's condition, Naniwa must've expected that the longer the series went, the more likely MVP was going to try to end the games early. A comeback would have been considerably easier for Nani in this series than almost any other circumstance because MVP is probably going to be hurting by a Game 5.

That being said, he should be scouting for cheese more than normal, which he seemingly did. He spotted the proxies in the last game and should know exactly how to react. He just didn't get away with only having 1 gate. Also, in Game 2, he saw the 3rd early marine, which I think would tip off something suspicious, and he only built a second cannon. I don't know if Nani was giving MVP too much credit as far as expecting him not to cheese or just thought he could get away with greedier play or just didn't know how to react properly. MVP, regardless of builds, outplayed Naniwa.

I personally will like to think that MVP cheesed because he was trying to humiliate Naniwa/retaliate for the probe rush against his teammate, but logically I would think it's indicative of his condition. I doubt that he wins in the semifinals because his opponent will expect it more and react better than Naniwa did. Either way, good luck to MVP and congrats on the win.

That was not the epic series I was hoping for
My feelings are all jumbled now, I'm frustrated by the games, sad for Nani and yet kinda happy for MVP because he refuses to die. I think I kinda want MVP to take this whole season now even if he cheeses every game just to prove that nothing can stop him , not injury or sickness or his worst matchup etc.

Also gogo parting ^-^

I think the phrase "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me" applies here.

Nexus first is risky. Doing it so predictably is stupid.

lol at the people who thought naniwa had a chance.... koreans are still eons ahead. he only beat mediocre koreans this gsl run this far


Well at least he has secured a spot for next season. I'm not a fan of NaNi but you can't deny that he is one of the few foreigners who truly deserves and wants to compete in the GSL. I'm very interested to see how much he will improve between now and next season.

while the last game was cheesy, it was really entertaining. naniwa scouted it and some would have thought he'll win because of that. however i think he didn't play it perfectly and so it went to an exciting rush which MVP won.

had to stop that first bunker at all costs...

this is why all progamers compare MVP to Flash ~.~


I dont think all progamers do this...

Furthermore, making a bunker, wow so impressed with that skill. Must be nice to be able to pull scvs to buffer super high dps units. Not that naniwa could do the same mind you, as protoss actually need to have workers mining, mules are pretty funny.

wish i could chronoboost cannons into terrans base or other such absurd cheeses...

3 out of 4 games in Ro8...

Proxies and cheese...

I'm so disappointed... And the smile on his smug face afterwords like he had done something exceptional...

Sickening.


smile isn't b/c he thinks he did something exceptional,

smile is there b/c he's laughing at how easy it was for him to get to the RO4 of the muthafucking gsl haha

3 games. He also pulled SCVs on Antiga

He "pulled" scvs in Game 1 as well - but both games 1 and 3 were for repair ...

To repair his marines that's why you pull SCVs..... smart.

any toss lose to proxy 2 rax in ladder? i really don't get it. I thought only work vs zerg.


2rax no gas is probably the opener I have the most difficulty against in PvT. 3rax is pretty hard too.

60 games a day and it def looked like naniwa had no clue what to do against that 2rax even when he scouted it. i really want nani to go far, but that was such a poor game from him...so sad


....he nearly held it, he just didnt know mvp was pulling more scvs.
If he pulled too many probes he stands to fall behind in economy. Its not that easy...

Daaaamn. Such a fitting quote!
Remember not only to say the right thing in the right place, but far more difficult still, to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.

GUARANTEED if Naniwa won his games with cheese, it would be "outclassing and outplaying" Mvp up to the max.
