Genius played the way he did against MC in the GSL where he was the runner-up to DRG. Super intelligent play.

Well, if that wasn't revenge for GSL, I don't know what is.

Can someone describe the games for me were they good, bad etc? Sad to see Naniwa going down like this but it sounds like Genius is playing better than he did during gsl & dreamhack.


I only caught the last game but it was pretty good. Genius got really ahead by using blink to jump in Naniwa's base and do some damage. Then he used the threat of blink to keep Naniwa from moving his army out to protect his natural, and so he couldn't expand. Naniwa got a pretty big army on his one base and then attacked, and Genius tried to defend but Naniwa had good forcefields (and broke down Genius' forcefields with his Colossus) and managed to cut off Genius and go into his base. Genius pulled his probes and attacked and it was really close, with about 3 stalkers and an Immortal left for Genius at the end of the engagement. Naniwa was mined out in his main and only base while Genius transferred probes to his natural and so Naniwa decided to surrender.

Ty, sounds like at least that game had good play from both but Genius was clearly one step ahead.

Does Genius look kinda like Joseph-Gordon Levitt? He does to me but I might just be crazy.

I guess you could say his opponent was....a Genius?

The twitch vods are really glitching out, I'll check them again later, or maybe when they go up on youtube. Naniwa wasn't confident going into the match, I guess with good reason

One thing, despite how he may come across Naniwa doesn't see himself as an ass, Introducing him as king of the trolls and asking him if he's trolling after answering questions seems a little harsh to your guest.

Woohoo go Genius! Really glad he was able to take this so convincingly. Was just thinking about him and wondering how he will perform in GSTL this season.
