I would love to see Stephano get put in his place. Granted I'd rather someone other than Naniwa do it...beggar can't be choosers.

It's amazing how much hype Stephano can get behind him by being very good but never having to play S-tier Koreans.

as far as i know, he played against Polt and recently against Alive. the games were pretty close. About S-tier protoss, he had a few chances to play with MC, he also played a game with Crank, but he lost to both.
I am really curious to see how he plays against good protoss like Oz or Genius, but Naniwa also has top PvZ, so it would be more even than the showmatch against White-ra.

lolol Stephan hasn't won shit in prize money compared to nani. nani to sweep stephano.

edit: ok I take that back. stephano has won more money. still nani has accomplished way more.


lol No.

Naniwa havent won a tournament since MLG before the koreans arrived. While Stephano have won many

Plus Naniwa 0-14 in GSL while Stephano is 2-2

Naniwa should instead think about winning a televised GSL match

How is Naniwa better than Stephano?

Isn't Naniwa the guy who never won a single match in GSL and won nothing since MLG?

He is the person who beat Sheth, NesTea, then Leenock less than 3 weeks ago a an MLG.

Are you one of those idiots who only consider people who actually win a major tournament good?

You don't have to fight big fish to be the king in a fish pond.

In the Ocean, where you find Naniwa on the other hand...

stephano will do it anyway...like MC said, only stephano and DRG are able to beat him, if the boss protoss are saying something like that, for sure naniwa will lose...

Idra are also in Korea and he is pretty bad...nothing to say, stephanos skill are just > naniwa^^

+ Zerg imba ;>

but i love stephano and naniwa, would be an epic match to see.

Provpro.org never took off was one regret I had. Fan-funded showmatches would be a lot of fun.
Thank God and gunrun.

This is Smuft v Idra all over again. It'll never happen, unfortunately

Where did he say that? The only thing I remember sounding like this was that drg and stephano had similar styles

MC is 5-0 against stephano if you take his games in korea and foreign events

Blizzcup numbers are diluded. Look at the games. Naniwa played extremely well every single game. He is one of if not the best foreigner. This match is good because these two are prolly top3 forigners.


About OP.

Naniwa is very good if not best foreigner pvz as of late, (even if statstics show its not his best overall, hes improved lately tons), and Stephano has best foreigner pvz EZ. The only thing that may happen is they both play styles that would allow one to potentially have the upper hand, in this case the upper hand to Naniwa. Stephano plays a style built to delay the third generally and starve the opponent. Naniwa plays a 2 bases with late third style and uses a variety of tactics/harrass/cheese/strats to punish the opponent while he takes his third. The match would be good. Please be a bo5+though. Also, GO Naniwa!

No he didn't...he just said that they have similar styles. I've never seen MC drop a game to Stephano, even on ladder. Please don't just make up stuff if your not going to provide sources.
