alicia did have a sick run that tourny, but inside Korea hes not done much. Call me an elitist but nothing really matters outside of Korean scene.


So Naniwa is the 7th or 8th best player in the world?

He is consistent in code S for now, I wouldnt say he is 8th best player no, but he is top 20.

You're 100% correct.
You can't be considered the best of anything SC2 related unless you prove yourself in GSL
Stephano will get fucking raped in GSL, he has one zvp build and give any GSL level player 1-2 weeks to study his build and its done.

He's definitely code s quality, if you can't even admit that, you are just bias.
He's beaten mc, hero, ryung, am I forgeting any other dominant Koreans he's beaten lately?

He can't beat them when they have a week+ to prepare for him, he's a solid player yes, but he's pretty predictable. He would get 4-0'd in round 1 of code S if he was in it, depending on his group.

don't forget that the people he beat dont have time to prepare for him, they are used to a completely different style of play from korea zergs, other than say DRG. It's not really fair to say he's code S level when he's not getting builds tailor made to snipe him.

I'm 100% sure stephano is #1, or atleast #2 foreigner studied by Koreans. Are you saying Koreans don't study one of the strongest player in the foreign tournament? They've already studied him and still lose.
