I had no doubt in my mind that Korea would win this; the first 10 pages of comments were the usual "foreigners can do it this time!" comments.

But I'm actually rooting for Naniwa - it would definitely make for a ridiculously entertaining game 5!

LOL! That was pathetic Nerchio. Going carriers is going full retard. I guess going full foreigner is even stronger/worse than that...


What are you talking about? Squirtle used that build against Lucky in a do-or-die match in the GSTL and won.


Yeah, somebody needs to tell Tasteless (and Spacekyod) that carriers are kind of good in PvZ and have been a thing for awhile now...

The problem is surviving so you have the necessary critical mass of carriers to make the strategy work. The amount of DPS that comes out of this kind of late-game build is insane though, esp. when the Zerg goes for standard infestor/bl.

losing to carriers is more embarassing than Naniwa losing to tanks


Not at all...a lot of Protoss players are now turning to Carriers in lategame PvZ (Creator vs Hyun in Code S Ro8). Nobody goes mech vs toss, though, so Naniwa has egg all over his face.

Actually because nobody goes mech that's why he lost...he didn't practice against it so therefor didn't know how to react!


He made stalker/colossus instead of immortal/zealot...any Plat-Diamond player could tell you not to do what Naniwa did. That was just sheer stupidity on his part.

Tasteless has no idea what he's talking about and it's painful to listen to, carriers have been used in pvz lategame for a while now, just read the TL guide to pvz...

Tasteless should put a modicum of effort into his casting if he wants to remain relevant.

So if NaNiwa loses to Life, I guess it's already a wrap? Or will they have Stephano and MC play nonetheless?

Not getting that 4th base meant he could get all the upgrades and infestors he needed. Carriers are very gas efficient and Squirtle won the gas attrition war.


Not getting at least level 2 armor was just stupid to be honest. How can he hope to win air battle against 3-0-3 army with 0-0 air? Just wont happen, no way the gas cost is any where near to justifying not getting air armor upgrade.

that's because Scarlett is the one north american player that is clearly worthy of being in this tournament.

imagine if it was an all north american team. it would probably look something like this:

Scarlett
Idra
Huk
Suppy
Vibe


would that be better than/as good as the current team world?
