However, Naniwa is definitely a Code S level player. He is for sure in the top ten players of the world right now, maybe even top five. I'm not really a super Naniwa fan or anything; this is just the way I see it.

Anyway this is really exciting. Season 2 is gonna be sick.

Can't tell if serious...


Lets name some players who beat Mvp and Nestea in box series multiple times! See if you can name 5

Let's name some players who have a worse record in GSL than Naniwa.


Before you say that's irrelevant, it has alot more to do with whether he is top 5 or not than how many times he beat Nestea.(nothing, btw)

second chance for Nani, time to see what he makes of it. Last time he was code S level, we'll see how he is now.

Hopefully Nani doesn't get stuck in a group of death for his Code S debut.

Every player has a low point, MC, Mvp, DRG, essentially ALL champions were once Code A or Code B, so your point is moot.

naniwa is probably the best foreigner at the moment, he is without a doubt the best foreigner in korea.. so if a foreigner should get a seed.. it should be him. i dont see why it matters that he has lacked success in past attempts. to give the seed to a worse player like haypro, desrow or diestar wouldnt exactly be better

no, ofcourse you can argue that there shouldnt be international seeds at all, but thats a different question, and if thats what youre getting at say that so theres no confusion

Only just thought if this now, but I guess this is the reason why he didn't participate in the Prelims...

Well I think a lot of people think Nestea isn't even top 5 in the world right now. And the BoX series Naniwa won against Mvp we all can agree Mvp didn't really care AND TvP is Mvp's worst matchup. While Nani is great and everything...top 5 in the world is the biggest lie anyone can tell. Hell Mvp might not even be top 5 right now. Nani MAY be the best foreigner, but he and Stephano have a while to go before they are DRG and MMA level. A lot of people believe Nani isn't even top 5 Toss right now...MC, PartinG, Oz, Genius, Puzzle? idk but the point is...Nani isn't top 5 or top 10 in the world right now. His style is very scary though, I will give him that.

Niceee, love seeing Polt finally get some recognition for his achievements recently. Hmmm, not too sure about the Naniwa choice, seeing as he does have an eight percent win-rate in GSL, but he has been doing pretty well recently, so I guess it is pretty justified. But in general, I do have a gripe with sending players straight to Code S, I prefer seeing them work their way through Code A, then showing off their abilities and gradually go into Code S.

I can't for the life of me figure out why so many foreigners want to see as few non-koreans in the GSL as possible. I'm not a big fan of Idra or Huk normally, but in the GSL I've always been their biggest fan, The same people never say much when Koreans get seeded into code S for some reason.

Who deserves Code S of the foreign players if Naniwa doesn't? Seriously, Naniwa is more than deserving of a Code-S spot. Now its up to him to keep it or show good results even. Gl there!

But Naniwa isn't a champion and has never had a high point comparable to Mvp, MC or DRG. He's a guy who did well in one tournament, MLG Providence, where he had a ridiculous seed and didn't actually win. Aside from that he's just been consistently good for a foreigner but mediocre overall with some wins over good players but a lot more losses to good players and plenty of losses to weaker players at tournaments where he should have done better.
Mvp, Nestea, Leenock, MC, Oz, Jjakji!

True hes not a champion, but this code S seed is his chance to breakout and become that champion. He definitely has the ability to beat anyone, but also lose to lower players. That being said its entirely possible for him to do well and maybe even win. Nani first GSL foreigner champion? gogo Nani
