Naniwa and MC have been greatly benefiting from 4 gate I feel. What will happen when they will be forced to play macro games more often? That's the question I wonder about these days.
They'll win with different builds. Or did you forget that Naniwa invented the anti-4gate 3gate? :/

Axslav played risky because he was up against a superior player and knew he needed some sort of build order advantage to win

..and just for clarification, I haven't missed Gretorp's accidental "that's what she said" moment of the day, right? Just now tuning in..

Well PvP is also their best MU, and if you watched his stream recently you knew Axlasv didnt have much chance from the start.

Are u kidding me ? Naniwa is the BEST macro protoss by far, hes known for going nexus first in any match up other than PvP, and lately hes even going nexus first in PvP... not that it ever works in PvP.

It's not like they don't macro in other matchups.
Also, watch Hasuobs vs. MC.

Partake in our ways? He's doing this on purpose now.

Nani seems so humble in NASL interviews an dalso n SOTG. Maybe he has really changed for the better now.

Oh wow. I left for a few min and this series is already over? I guess it wasn't completely unexpected. Naniwa has been in beast mode lately

Gretorp is the king of malapropisms.

Because he knew that Naniwa would beat him in for example 4gate vs 4gate.

If Naniwa went blink stalkers Axlsav would have had enough sentries and immortals to stop it. Unfortunately he just assumed that Naniwa would be going blink stalker again.

I get that the match-up just got changed significantly, but it's still PvP and you have to be able to defend yourself in the early game. Axslav just seemed completely unprepared.
