Naniwa was always subpar in PvZ. Beating Nestea, Leenock, and DRG never changed that fact because those were the only zergs he actually defeated.

That's a very bold and too generalizing statement considering how there are half of the current Code S players participating in leagues like MLG and IPL

Nani has been traditionally weak against top z compared to his other matchups, lucky consistantly knocked him out of gsl. And on his stream he lost consistently v brood/infestor in the late game. So in this case I agree with monster

I like how he doesn't even mention the eventual winner. Especially considering the beating Thorzain gave both him and Polt.

this guy is such a dick lol. Before he played Thorzain he was like '' Theres an 80% chance that I will win''
Don't think he should be talking down other players or skill levels when he hasn't accomplished anything

Okay, so Nani only had to practice PvP and PvT, that naturally means he doesn't practice PvZ as much. Doesn't that automatically make him weaker in PvZ because he hasn't been practicing it...which is exactly what Monster said?

He's also... statistically weaker in PvZ.

So it's not dumb for monster to say Naniwa is weak at PvZ when.... HE'S WEAKEST AT PVZ!
HOLY CHECK!

Lol @ monster for saying this. He has barely played any foreign tournaments. Pretty cocky for saying this. I guess he just wants some attention. Players like this plummet pretty quick. Just look at Idra.

Considering what he is used to, Dreamhack probably seems like a cakewalk. And remember Sound? 2nd at Homestory Cup, never made a dent in the Korean scene.

I agree with the sentiments of many of the posters here; he attended one of the easiest (major) foreign tournaments in the past 6 months (or more).

This nobody seems pretty confident. Tell him to try MLG or IPL
