Naniwa has just been crazy lately, hope this turns into the next mc. If he keeps winning and going like this, who's going to stop him ? Whoever it is, I wanna see it :D
Yes I am

Agreed Naniwa is insane, but let's not get too crazy with the talk about being better than Koreans until he actually walks on their turf and takes home their tournaments.


Well, he probably won't do that, but it doesn't really matter. MC himself said that the European ladder is as hard as the Korean, and when was the last time a Korean came to Naniwa's turf and beat him in a tournament? Naniwa has pwned all Koreans he has faced - and everyone else too.

Didn't I just said he got beaten by sen in Bo5. You sound like he beat alot of korean and walk to any big lan tournaments and win. Take away MLG WTF DID HE Achieve.

What has Naniwa won excluding MLG?

He's in great form no doubt but let's not go overboard. He still isn't as good as the Koreans until he goes over to Korea and does really well, KR is still the homeland of the best players in the world.

You raise an interesting point, taking away achievements of players leaves them with fewer achievements. If you take away all their achievements, it's as if they've never even played the game. And why would we waste our time discussing people who don't even play SC2?

]WTH ace's iem win is more impressive then naniwa's.


Why?
As I remember there was a lot of poor play at the IEM World.
The only foreigner I remember recembling himself was Moonglade.
Qxc and Fenix was way way out of it.
Sjow was on his slump.
MorroW, White-Ra, Idra did not seem to be in remotely their best form.
Tarson struggled and Socke was so-so(His pvp was good though or better than Squirtles at least).

Squirtle went 2-3 in his group, Moon and Ace seemed more impressive than they were due to their opponents playing sub-par.


My pick is definitely Naniwa.
If you're not getting better faster than everybody else, you're getting worse.

Haha, suppose you think Jinro is second, & Morrow a close third

Joking,
Yea, I'd say Naniwa..

And you base that on so few tourney wins eh? Overhyping in progress.

The koreans who get those stats with the latency is most impressive to me.

Uh personally, from all the games I've watched from them in the NASL and the other various leagues I'd probably rank the 3-1 players something like this:

July > Squirtle > Naniwa = Moon = WhiteRa > DarkForce > Morrow = Incontrol > Slush

Not to take anything away from Slush but I feel if he was to play any of the other 3-1ers he'd probably lose. Slush is still an awesome player.

July first and foremost, and then Squirtle. Moon is somewhere up there too, but I feel he's not as consistent.

Naniwa never beat or never had the chance to beat a Korean player under fair conditions. Sure he is in great form but without any games to compare you really can't make him the favourite over all koreans. If July makes it in top16, I think he has a chance to win it all, as there are no more disadvantages for koreans at that point. Not only lag is a factor but also the very late hours the games are played at. So I would rank the top three in that group July, Naniwa and Squirtle
