Naniwa coming from 0-2 to 3-2 advancing to the finals in a nearly all korean finish has got to be the most impressive thing a foreigner has ever done, regardless of winning or losing the grand finals.

So will Curious and Naniwa fight for the second place after Life wins the finals, is that what you're saying?

Read comment above.


Do you need me to add an "/s" tag to my posts?

Not really, i understand well that you know Life won't win this match :D

Also has balls of steel?

For sure, but Koreans are expected to have balls of steel, foreigners are supposed to just play scared all the time

I was excited to see IEM has like 60k+ viewers then looked at the Dota2 numbers...

Go figure the game that takes 10 people per game has more viewers

how does that have anything to do with viewership?

It doesn't actually.


Unless you count the players as viewers ... then Dota has an 8 viewer advantage inbuilt!

No fair!!!

The obvious solution is to make SC tournaments 5v5.

I would watch a 5v5 SC tournament

So, can anyone explain to me how the 2 wins by Hyun get largely not worth viewing votes and Game 5 gets 63% saying it's the best game ever?

And people wonder why Naniwa fans are viewed as so obnoxious.


It's not the game itself, but the situation surrounding it obviously(Hyun 3hatching every game and it being the deciding match). Quite easy to understand I would say.


This is wrong. It says nothing about the quality of the game as the poll should.
The last game was awesome for the fans but it was crap as it was decided by hyun not scouting and going 3 hatch.


It says everything about the game and if you can't understand then I can't help you.


It says nothing out of context. I know you are happy but the last game was nothing great since it was a BO win.
There were better games to deserve 5 stars.

Saying "it was just a build order win the end" is the definition of taking it out of context. It was the deciding game in a big series, and doing something like that with that much on the line makes it more exciting than if he had done it in game 1 in a group stage map. Context matters a lot.

So the tournament comes down to the 3 people I least wanted to win. So who do I most prefer of these 3? Life I think. Curious killed both of my favorites and naniwa is a foreigner so naturally I want him gone. Life will do.

If nani would have played nexus first in every game, 6 pooling (or perhaps rather 10 pooling) him would have been an adequate reaction.

wait this sounds familiar.

hasn't this happened?

Bomber winning a tournament in Europe? Pretty sure Europe is not Korea.
