I think that the upcoming match with thorzain vs kas is going to be amazing. People are counting thorzain out because his 'TvT is not that good'.. Sorry guys, but people counted him out PvT vs Tyler and he proved us all wrong. I'm looking forward to him proving the haters wrong.

It's nice to see Naniwa control himself more in Interview.
He used to be quite wild. :<

I hate to announce myself as a fan of ThorZaiN since the TSL is going on, i wouldn't want to jinx him (i sometimes can have that affect cheering for people like wheat cheers on ret), but i'm secretly a fan of him now :D

And I guess this concludes any possibilities of "Koreans Beat White Guys" happening again.

Thorzain vs MC was the highlight of my weekend.

I'm betting money on a Thorzain vs. Naniwa finals from what I have seen so far, but these match ups look so good.

Its not hate, its statistics...
And its Kas...
I myself hope for a Thorzain win, but he has to go like no-life practice to do that imho
/answer

Its so cool that no matter what the finals wont be a mirror match
Also, I'm happy that europeans are owning^^

From watching Day9, I became a huge (P)Adelscott fan. Can't wait to see him after this new patch. Hopefully we see his macro style play change up as the update comes out.

Ummm, you do realize he lost his series, right?


On topic, A PvT finals guaranteed is awesome. I want (T)ThorZaIN to beat (T)Kas, but it seems unlikely. Then again, I've said that about every other (T)ThorZaIN TSL game, and I've been wrong every time, so who

I think (P)NaNiwa's PvP is really good, but so is (P)HasuObs, so I can't really predict who will win. Anything can happen in a PvP.

Also, (P)NaNiwa's interview was a few words away from being as BM as (Z)IdrA's, for a second I was worried. It's nice to see him being so mature.

(I really like the TLPD button)
For he is the Oystermeister, lord of all the oysters.

Not only are all four semifinalists former War3 players, but they're also all players who qualified by winning TLOpens. Overall it seems like people who won the qualifiers have done much better than invitees or those who qualified on points. I suppose that this sort of makes sense: people who won online qualifiers are better prepared to compete in a mostly online tournament.

That said, TSL3 has been awesome so far, with excellent games from established players as well as nobodies. I'm sad that all my favorite players have been eliminated by now, but the remaining players are obviously really good. Lots of great interviews (both in the questions and in the answers) -- glad to see NaNiWa's very mannered response to the CrunCher question, haha.

PvT was still his strongest MU by miles before he faced Tyler. It's not the same, especially because the upset you predict to happen hasn't happened yet. He "proved us wrong" vs Tyler because PvT was and still is his best.

Am I the only one who finds it odd, yet cool, that Naniwa has gone from being a BMer and rager on par with Idra, to a calm, collected, gracious winner? I'm glad he sorted whatever it was that was eating him because it's turned him into an incredible player.

Congrats to Hasu, Kas, and Thorzain as well. Their wins are well deserved...especially Thorzain's.

Yeah it's a cool story (for real, heh). From what I've heard he's had it pretty rough, so seeing him rise above all that and end up being one of the very best SC2 players (bet he won't rest until he's the without doubt very best though) is pretty legendary.

Was good of Nani to show Cruncher some respect on the interview. Making it to the RO8 and drawing the series out to 5 games, Cruncher deserved it since being dragged through the mud for his win against Idra.

Looking forward to a Nani/Thor final

I was expecting Naniwa to say to question 1 would be: "It was okay."
Good interviews!
