Depends if BO5/BO7/BO9. It will be really hard for Naniwa anyway as he relies on two base all ins a lot and Stephano can defend those pretty easy, especially if its more than BO3.

But Stephano doesn't go mutas much so idk


he doesn"t because it's imba, if it's to crush a little cocky swedish nerd, you will see lots of mutas :p



Stephano proposes the showmatch but Naniwas the cocky one? okay...


it's naniwa who wants to add personal money acting like he is sure to win, and I'm jokingly saying it anyway.... Why so serious guys?

If I had a little extra bank, I'd consider staking Nani.

Stephano is kind of a tool. I hope Nani tunes him up. I doubt this goes down though to be honest.



lolwhat

out of nani and stephano, you name stephano as a tool? You can't be serious.

Two roughly equal players (Naniwa's probably slightly better overall), but with Stephano's best match-up and Naniwa's worst match-up? Doesn't seem entirely smart, but I have faith that Naniwa could win.

Its naniwas best match-up I think, PvT is his worst atm


http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/sc2-international/players/1614_NaNiwa

It's his worst match-up by percentages and he's stated that in interviews before on numerous occasions. Whether he thinks that's changed or not I don't know, but historically it has always been his worst match up and he hasn't really been dropping that many games to terran, particularly compared to how many he's dropped to zerg. When he's been beating zergs, it's always been 2-1. When he's been beating Terrans it's usually 2-0.

I said atm ^^
he is 6-4 vZ (vs top korean zergs) and 3-7 vT (vs mkp and foreigners) and I think he said in his latest interview that he has gotten the hang of PvZ (not sure tho).
His PvP is sicker tho 9-1...

No need to label it as a showmatch, they can name it whatever they want.

I think NaNiWa has a good shot if this goes down. Stephano's a monster, but think of all the ridiculous experience NaNi's getting in Korea.


Yeah man, he's farming those Koreans hardcore for megadrops.

Predictability is pretty bad. Naniwa will forge expand like no other. And then he'll get "idra'd".

Uh, Forge expand is standard and hard to abuse with an all-in because of wall offs and Forcefields. Besides, you can choose any tech route behind said forge expand to stay hard to predict.

So basically, no.



Thank for your explaining the forge expand to me. Surely no zerg will ever do an all-in against it, then.

If you could all in and instantly win vs a standard strategy it wouldn't be standard.

i find it funny that stephano offers 5k for a showmatch and hes playing white-ra right now for 5k. Seems to me that he thinks he can take the series ez.

Nani has better PvZ than any foreigner and probably any Korean. Like, this is a guy specifically known for his PvZ. As is repeatedly beating Nestea, beating Leenock, etc...

its crazy to think people would favor stephano by saying that you're implying he has a better zvp than sheth leenock and nestea.
