Stephano an advanced version of Idra! So says Naniwa.


Good interview.



He is completely right. I've been saying this for a while now, with Stephano's current play he will get nowhere in the GSL. If you are a Stephano fan you don't have to believe me, just wait.

Going to bed thinking about the game, dreamin about it, then waking up and playing 3 games before you eat. Serious, focused training too. This is how Koreans LIVE, and he was loving it! Awesome. I hope Naniwa gets really into this, seems to have a great attitude and real natural talent- very inspiring.

That was touching when he was talking about Sase. Best bros for life.

No offense but I think Johan and Kim are gay. Nothing wrong with that but isn't gay marriage banned (or at least frowned upon) in Korea?

As far as I know they've both openly joked about it but have stated that they are straight, and even if same sex marriage is banned that doesn't mean you can't reside there...

I love Naniwa and this interview is great, but "unprecedented run through GSL Code S" is kind of false isn't it? Jinro has made Ro4, right?


with the new format and the increase of good players i think its quite unprecedented

That was a really fantastic interview with Naniwa, much more open and chatty than he normally is. He really dishes quite a bit of information, like discussion on his pairing with Sase and how it plays into his looking around for another team. How they practise in the GSTL and that he might be in a place to do something for his team this season. A really great interview.
