Did you have to be RO8 to stay in Code S before? I feel like it was much easier to retain your code S spot in the past, or am I wrong? | ||

I think huk has been code S longer then naniwa as I feel like I remember huk being in code S for like 5-6 or so but I could be wrong. Huk was in there for a LONG time, but keep in mind that its harder to remain in Code S now. You have to place higher and win more games than you had to last year. | ||

I think the verb he should have used is respect. | ||

DRG is just too good to let it happen. Single most deciding moment of the game 5 (thus the whole series) IMO. There was some luck involved in that Naniwa was indecisive with the Warp prism for a half second and DRG did not let it go. Had Naniwa sent it straight out then the game would have looked different. | ||
