Why choose him?

[Dylan Hunt]

I wonder, for human rush-n-burn, what does Nish have that Elad doesn't?

[FDL]

Anti-Human board wipe that doesn't damage you and allows you to play an ally on the same turn. Great synergy with Portal.

I still like Elad a little more, but Nish is not that far behind. Good thing he was brought into the spot light.

Anti Human? But PotLs are going to kill Nish half-dead before he can wipe once.

If someone managed to get tier 2 hero in the tournament doesn't makes him better, it may change the meta around and make him more popular, yes but not better.

I feel like Eladwen is still a bit better than Nish because Elad has less weaknesses. Nish can simply die to PoL but Nish is better than Elad when going first (PoL simply dies doing practically nothing) and when going against non-PoL decks.

Nish is T1 hero. He has equal power of Eladwen
advantages of Nish over Eladwen:
1: you can always kill your own TO, this is especially important vs warrior. Nish deck always have 4TO. Eladwen need nova to achieve that.
2: Nish combo with nova means super board wipe and normally can constantly clean board for multiple turns. Quite important vs priest and rogue.
3: Nish's style can be extremely extremely deceive!!!!! This play style really separate him with Eladwen (Hint: skill,nova,TO,DOU,portal)

if you can't master the deceive style of Nish, then you just play Nish the same way as Eladwen (in this case Eladwen is of course stronger than him)

I am glad that the Regionals brought poster boy Nish into the spotlight. Props to Monomax, Geckt and other Nish-players.
