I really love Naniwa's ambitiousness and attitude. He isn't afraid of anyone!

Good luck in the finals(both).

Great interviews!
I would expected Naniwa's response to

Great interviews, thanks! I've decided to stick true to my former votes, where I've always voted on the other than Thorzain player, so go Naniwa, my liquibet depends on you! Also Naniwa is such a baller in interviews.
really?

I'm hoping for a really close series so that neither player feels terrible at the party afterwards, I mean Thorzain can't even drink it off if he loses really bad. Plus close series between two great players is always awesome to watch

The TvTs were soooo much longer on average than the PvPs. I wonder if Naniwa can keep up with the best of 'em in a longer macro struggle. I think Thorzain will win given that he's shown us a lot of solid TvPs here in the TSL and without a major tournament win already, he'll want this one more. In contrast, we haven't seen much of Naniwa's PvT since Dallas, except for his match vs Goody. As a protoss player, I hope Naniwa takes it but I'm predicting ThorZain.

Naniwa will have Sjow and Select to practice with to train for ThorZaIN. It'll be tough though. If he beats ThorZaIN, it will be cool to see how MC responds.

Thanks again for another great summary
Now, the problem I have is that I have no idea whom to vote for - I picked Naniwa based on a randomized selection, just so that I did place a bet.
In reality though ? No idea - I'd love to see either of them suceed, really hard to decide.
Either way, best of luck to both finalists and here's hope for an amazing final.
TSL3 was great so far, I am sure the combatants will deliver.

I gotta admit the TSL has been sort of a bittersweet experience. I'm glad the foreigners brought it to the koreans but a little upset the supposed underdogs also brought it to ALL of my favorite players (how dare you knock out Tyler!). However, Thorzain I think has finally grown on me and I'll be rooting for him in the finals. And who better to root against than Naniwa, a new villain (in an Idra way)?

Should be a great finals.

My feelings exactly (except for NaNiwa being a villain). I was upset that Tyler was knocked out by someone I didn't know then. But man do I know him now. ThorZaIN has slowly converted me to his fandom and I'm certainly going to be cheering for him in the finals.

Good luck to both players! Enjoy your time in NY!
