ahhhhhh this is hard to watch...Naniwa just sits there for 30 mins and ends up winning. terrible feeling.


unfortunately that's how you play protoss properly. just defend until your deathball's unkillable


Calling it "just defending" is selling what Naniwa did there very, very short. His unit control and the intelligence of his positioning was a level above MMA.

Are people really bitching about PvT because of that game?

It may not be balanced, but MMA played like shit that game once he took the lead - you can't base any balance complaints off of what we just watched there.

Probably 6 Protoss from Europe, 2 from Korea, and possibly 3-4 from America.

Not too surprised that naniwa won tbh. He's legit, probably best foreigner atm and MMA just isn't a top tier Korean.

6 Protoss. WTF. At least I can learn something about PvP. It seems that Protoss doesn't need the sad zealot fanclub anymore.

Blizzard usually allows a maximum of 2 months of tosses doing well before the nerfdozer comes out. The zealot will probably be sad once more.

I don't know how the rest of you feel about PvP, but I personally don't love it enough to watch 6-7/8 players in the Ro8.


well, at least it's the best mirror matchup in HotS. But yeah, it's still only a mirror MU

I guess this means already 4 Protosses representing Europe in the season finals.

Was it all because of hellbat nerf?


Mothership core makes mid-game much easier to defend for Protoss.

Hopefully Nani plays a more interesting style in future PvTs; I really dislike the Rain style of just sitting in your base all game.

Still, Nani fighting! Hoping for you to win this season! :D

I'm not even a naniwa fan, but that was incredibly impressive defensive play. Fabulous micro.


I'm a MMA fan, and he pretty much threw a good lead by engaging sloppily and doing shameful mistakes, while Nani just watched and laughed at him... (and played solidly of course).

A protoss on 3 base is defending against a terran on 4 base with 3/3 upgrades? What the heck?


TBH the storms were MUCH better placed than the EMPs.


if you hold something like this with only one spell it's just like fungal in end of wol and should not be possible and is potentially game breaking

There was pretty much not one storm that game that I felt whiffed or missed. Every storm was a money storm thanks to good micro by Naniwa and nonexistent micro from MMA.
