Don't lose hope, fans of players who aren't Korean. What looked like might be a second foreigner-less GSL Code S Ro16 in a row now includes one of the biggest stars in the international scene. 
Quantic.NaNiwa made the best of his seeded Code S debut and advanced out of his group with aplomb, taking out both SlayerS_Puzzle and 
SlayerS_Ryung to finish first place in a tight group. Far from being outmatched, NaNiwa looked on par, or even better than two of the best pro-gamers SlayerS had to offer. It may not be much of a surprise to some, as NaNiwa has been able to defeat numerous Code S Koreans in international tournaments. With his victories, NaNiwa becomes the fourth non-Korean player to make it past the RO32 in Code S, and he will now look to tie EG's HuK and IdrA by making it through the RO16 to the quarter-finals.
Slightly overshadowed by NaNiwa's rallying cry for foreign hope was the revival of three time GSL championIMMvp, who had fallen on a patch of poor results in 2012. His RO16 elimination in the previous Code S came as a shock to many, and Mvp had been forced to work his way back up from Code A. Mvp was halfway to another early exit when he lost his first series to Ryung in two lackluster games, but he made up for the disappointment by rallying back to defeat both Puzzle and Ryung while looking very strong in the process.
