I get it that that it was meaningless for him at least he could have given a good game and make his statement elsewhere.

I think it's a tad bit hypocritical of Choya since he is one of very few who have actually been banned from GSL in the past for cheating the system


Seriously... he was "banned" for a season (i think) because he played some games on ladder with rock paper scissors, it had nothing to do with gsl.

You used to need X amount of ladder points to get to qualify for GSL, and Choya had figured out it was more beneficial to mass games than to actually win a higher percentage of games while playing fewer. He was cheating the system.

Throwing games is legal now


There's no rule about worker rushing. So he didn't throw the game he tried something and it failed.

Sure it's somewhat of a statement, but it's well within the rules.


yes sending all his probes and didn't bother to micro


They shouldn't have made him play the game. Worker rushing is still in rules. He lost by losing all his workers.

he is the person who agreed to play in the tournament. he is not forced to play in the blizzard cup. he knew or he should've known that he would have to play all the games.

it's on him in every way. he agreed to it and what he did is despicable because it's blatantly throwing a game.

He probably knew he had to play it, that doesn't make it any less stupid. He's angry at himself for losing the 3 previous games that were finished 15 min ago, he hasn't cooled down yet and is forced to play a game that doesn't matter. He's obviously not going to try his best.

Naniwa is obviously an emotional person, you don't make good decisions when you're angry.

gj on Naniwa's part, pissing off the whole korean scene it seems ...

let's see how long he will actually stay in the StarTale house before something comes up.

Don't think IdrA even gets this butthurt.

I think when he completely threw the series against Nerchio, as in he didn't even play the last game, when the games still mattered and he could still have won, is a bit higher up on the scale actually.

He cheesed and it failed. You can say that's throwing the game but it's in the rules.

if you honestly think he was legitimately cheesing and not thinking "fuck this im going to throw this game and go home" then i dont know what to say.

As an avid fan of GSL and paying supporter of esports I really have no problems with this. It was funny. It was entertaining. I enjoyed watching every second of it.

Naniwa VS Korea just got way more interesting. Get em Nani!!!!!!


While I would've like to have seen them play (obviously) I can understand nani's decision to not want to play his big rematch against Nestea with such a low level of confidence and just being overall pissed about being out of the tourney 0-3.

Koreans are just flaming cause they cant handle having a "white dude" crush their starcraft2 god's MVP and Nestea TWICE at MLG and now they won't get their chance for revenge against naniwa. At least until next time. Cry more Korea!

Sorry, but naniwa is a god damn moron. Not just for this, but the fact that he did it after he comes off just less than a month of like 5 controversial things. It's so fucking stupid to put yourself into a position like this and have any more shit on your record. I can't believe people are still defending him when he has a long, long history of this kind of stuff and this wasn't just a "1 time" or even "few time" thing. He really needs to learn to control himself and just suck it up for the same of his career.

Ok,so it took a game(that ment nothing) of him worker rushing Nestea for people to realize Naniwa is a selfish player that only cares about if he wins,everything else comes second.
Well guess what man,that is who he is.He wasn't a different person 3 months ago,he forfeited games before this,he refused to play games that mean nothing to him.
This is who he is and it is nothing new.
If anyone is to blame here its GOM or who ever is in charge of the game scheduling,to have forced them to play this game in the first place,because I'm pretty sure that Naniwa wanted to forfeit the game and they told him he must play his game out(I have no evidence of this just speculation).
It's their own fault that this happened if the don't like it,but hey,at least now they know.
