I'm sad cuz nani isn't going to make it out of this group alive. his zvp is abysmal and hero's got his number in pvp historically.

Short of a large upset, Naniwa and HerO are going to advance, not that excited except to see how well they play.
Well, Forsen is able to upset Naniwa because Naniwa didn't practice PvZ for weeks.

Enlighten me please A GSL ro8 is harder to get to/a better result than outright winning any foreign tournament besides MLGs/IPL4 but doesn't give even close to the prize money.
I believe it is. Stephano will being going to korea soon unless something has changed. So can't really go by that until he does. Its all about what we hold as more value when determining skill. If they got to GSL ro8 then by that logic they should roll every other tournament but we all know thats not the case.

Again, im not saying he is the best zerg in the world or stuff like that, but hes awesome, hes the best foreigner and a top 10 zerg in the world period.
Every korean progamer would agree with this statement, im pretty sure. I don't disagree with that statement either, he's a top 5 Zerg imo. But I disagree with them constantly acting like he's a top 1 Zerg and a top 1 player when his results do not back that up one bit. Really nobody is constantly acting like he is the top1 Zerg. People see him as one of the best foreigner zerg, and probably one of the top-x in the world. Thats all. Let it go man. lol wut? People always act like Stephano is the best Zerg in the world. Luckily with DRG winning MLG, people have settled down a bit.
Didn't he beat DRG in that blizzard championship tournament? he's at least as good I'd say.. except he has a life.. I think people hates him because of that.. he's the Capablanca of SC2

Symbol has yet to prove himself in GSL but a lot of people think he is the best zerg. Symbol overrated by alot. He dont even got a fraction of Stephano achievement he didnt look good at all at MLG while Stephano went 5-0 in his group. Once again Symbol is Korean and thats the only reason why people would even say that. He all-killed IM and took second at Iron Squid (a tournament Stephano was in and failed to get out of the group stages) He allkillled so what so did QXC? His Korean and thats the only reason why he is even spoken in the same sentence as Stephano And you talk about Iron Squid? Online means nothing.. All that matters is lan QXC all-killed IM when they sent out 3 code b players and the team leagues were only bo7. Symbol all killed them when they sent out all their best players besides Seed. It was also a reverse all-kill which is even more impressive. The last few rounds of Iron Squid were lan and online does mean something. The only reason people say online doesn't mean anything is because of latency but in this case the latency would have favored Stephano and he was the one who lost... So that just makes him look even worse.
ah so online now means something, when it's stephano winning online it means absolutely nothing, get your shit together when you're hating

Actually you were saying just a few weeks before MLG than Stephano had better ZvP than DRG.
Luckily Sase shut you up this weekend.

That's not true at all. Naniwa beat Virus, Puzzle, Ryung and Genius to get to the round of 8.
A lot of foreign tournaments show better runs than that. For example Stephano beating Ganzi,Illusion,Violet,Squirtle and Parting to get only 3d place at Redbull is at least as hard as what Naniwa did.

I'll admit...that was a good burn.

So err why is nobody talking about Protosser? Guy hasn't dropped a game yet and he beat QXC already.
|
Wuhuu Protosser. 
Buhuu Elfi.
|
Anyone know when and where Nani will play?
|
Wow Protessor is doing well in his group, beating QXC and Merz, and will likely beat Mana since Mana is weak in PvZ.
Also ToD lost to a zerg by the name of Mini, but still has to go through Seiplo. He might not even make it out of his group if Mini beats the terran.

I think Nani would have at least practiced some PvZ considering Nestea was in his GSL group, despite that we all know of his weakness in the matchup.
