I don't particularly think JYP is very good, relative to the other players in the tourney, but wasn't he noted to have a good PvP? He has a fairly decent chance vs Nani, no? How's Nani's PvP?

It was always awful in WoL, every game he'd be hyped as having great PvP and "amazing blink micro" by Wolf or someone and then get crushed. Still, it could be better now, and Nani hates Pvp!

I understand the need to hype foreigners but this is honestly hilarious. Getting kicked out in the ro8 and having to play a ton of loser bracket matches is being called prevail?
And nowhere any mention whatsoever how Life roflstomped his way to Taeja at all?

Can't wait to see Naniwa get knocked out, maybe Taeja will breach 2400 elo on TLPD

omg! Taeja only 8 points from breaking his previous record lol His old record is tied with Polt's record so Taeja will break his elo record and make first if he gets 8 more points!

He's already smashed the aligulac record, maybe he's the flash of TLPD

Oh man, it's good times to be a TaeJa fan =D

I kind of hope he stops participating in so many tournaments soon though. I would be a sad panda if his wrists went bad again, and he can always come back next summer and remind everyone how dangerous he is.

And poor HerO... he's got to get through Polt *and* (most likely) sOs to move on. I think if he gets past those two he'll meet TaeJa in the finals.

Nani hasn't lost a single game yet when he went mass voids I think. He needs to stick with that.

I can seriously not decide who I think is the favorite between JYP and NaNi in PvP since both of them seem to play kinda worse than usual in it.

I'm guessing JYP, considering Naniwa's tendency to go on tilt when things annoy him. PvP annoys the shit out of him.

I hope I am not the only one who thinks that this is one of the worst map pools, I was sure it was going to change after the ladder season ended. Are tournaments map pools locked for a year/season? If yes, its terrible XP. If not, why the hell didnt they change it?!
Derelict and Akilon are outdated for 2 months now right? They could have picked other maps from crux that I am sure going to be official for the newish GSL or just, I dont know, gamble on high rated maps from other teams.
They have to do something serious about map pools for next year, if they do a season for map pools, they have to make sure these are the best maps possible from Blizzard and the community mappers, if they just pick ladder maps, it will be annoying.
Anyway, I wish naniwa best of luck in the next matches to hopefully seeing him playing vs Taeja and winning, but, looking at the braket I just cant skip rooting for herO, Taeja vs herO finals will be explosive (not going to be 4-0 like last time).

Here's a better way to put how NaNiwa's PvP is these days, taken from yesterday:

Naniwa needs to take lessons from elfi and Welmu :D
Another thing is will they help?:D NaNiwa is after all a swede even tho he so hard wants to be korean.
