I hope you all can take a step back and think about what the TL writers have done this week. An unprecedented number of articles and previews have gone out to hype one of the greatest tournaments of all time. I don't mean to go all Tasteless, "esports history" on you but it is what it is. But the amount of people who have the audacity to jump on Zealously for this article is astounding. Now I've read some complaints which range from the article simply not having a title to the fact that it is not entirely positive. And my answer to that is: SO WHAT? The article may not be positive, but it is honest. I happen to know that Zealously actually likes Naniwa, but he does what a writer should do and looks at the player objectively. Feel free to try to point out factual inaccuracies in the article, because I have not found any. Maybe people expected a 6 page dissertation on why Naniwa is the greatest thing since sliced bread, just because he is the only foreigner. But isn't that the same bias that you all so self-righteously condemn because the article is "negative"? The writers are there to objectively evaluate the player and create hype for the tournament, and I think this article did just that. Anyway that about wraps it up, sorry for ranting. But seriously, take some time to appreciate the work the writers did this week hyping ALL of the players, and cut them a little slack. Just because you did not think this article adequately hyped Naniwa does not mean you can sit behind your computer bashing the writing without making a contribution of your own. In conclusion, "This is the tournament where all the odds are stacked against NaNiwa, where no reasonable person would believe in him to win the championship. Two years we saw the best of NaNiwa, even as he fell just short of being crowned champion of the world. This time around, he can make that final step." Get ready for Blizzcon. | ||

For what it's worth, I enjoyed it quite a bit. Delusional Fanboys can't stand it when there isn't excessive foreign hope in any article. Delusional Fanboys also love to take no accountability and don't have a thread of class. Delusional Fanboys also never contribute and are stuck in wood league. TL volunteers are so awesome they keep eSports alive. TL volunteers are VOLUNTEERS, that work hard to produce content. TL volunteers, thank you. | ||

No matter how much I like him and dislike Soulkey, I still don't think he'll win. I expect a 3-1 maybe a 3-2 for Soulkey. The games will be good though that's for sure. Especially after the PvZ he's shown against Hyun, Life and Revival, all very good Zergs. Go NaNiwa! | ||

(the only thing i have to say about it is that it could have had more epic forcefields in it, thats all.) Ohwell as a fellow swed im biased as hell but if he didnt make it i would probably not even watch the finals, His presence has set fire to this tournament. Gogo Nani!!

As for the article. Its well written but I do think it somehow feels different to the others though I'm not quite sure why. Don't feel quite as hyped as I did after reading the others. Regardless of that, shame on those saying its "bad". Its a perfectly well written article. | ||
