I think the Korean players are finally getting it. This type of minor trash talk while still truly discussing the game and their play is what we need. PERSONALITY.

I was bored and the fans don't like turtle games, so I decided to attack. I felt confident I could win, I was wrong, he did well"

I mean, just in general, showing confidence and a little witty banter back and forth, truly makes these players rememberable. Even players who are relatively unknown to the majority are creating stories.

I honestly want to thank Naniwa for a lot of this. I'm slowly becoming a fan, if for no other reason than he's making the Koreans cocky and in some cases crapping all over them. It's really giving them a sense of personality. I love it, absolutely love it.

I think the reason the Koreans are smack talking Naniwa is not that they got cocky, but because they just don't like him. I just get the feeling from Korean interviews that this isn't really the friendly rivalry kind of cocky.

Umm no. Koreans just straight up dislike naniwa. There's no secret personailty shift going on here.

Seed just became my favorite player behind MVP/Nestea. Also I like that he holds Nestea in such high regard. He considers him the best Zerg apparently. I guess he is biased since he is on his team but like 99% of other pros have been saying DRG/Symbol in recent interviews.

Yeah he did. I mean I can't blame him at all personally as a lot of pros seem to really dislike naniwa from what I have seen so far.
When I think of something else, something will go here

Yeah, MC is just one of the more outspoken pros I think. Many of them feel similarly.

most of the startale players seem to like him a bit but that has to do with living with him i think

MC kill NANIWA if he somehow makes it past DRG which is already doubtful. But i dont think everyone in korea hates him, or maybe they do as a person but they know he is a good player. But basically they all want to take him down for what he said to nestea and then for calling them bad.

MC vs Nestea finals for me would be epic.

he said he didn't have the mindset of a progamer back when he probe rushed. Not that he wasn't a progamer. As said in the interview, he has respect for Naniwa's skill.
