If he's already out, don't see the point in it being played. | ||

How could you even argue that what Naniwa did wasn't wrong? You do it in your own country, fine. You don't step into a neighbour's house and take a dump on his carpet, say "nice of you to have me" and walk out. Seriously, it's quite exasperating to see how people could argue for Naniwa. First of all, i'm not your bro. Did he break any rules? no. You don't know a damn thing about how me or other swedes do things here, so stop with the nonsense. And what the FUCK does that parable have to do with anything? it's not even remotely similar to this situation. | ||

For the people who claimed that it was as bad as match fixing, how do you figure that? I'd love to know how your mind works, or doesn't. Please check your own mind before questioning those of others. If this is behaviour is condoned, what if people just place huge bets against themselves, and go on to lose a match on purpose? Please put some thought before making such posts. | ||

It won't change the tournament, it won't change our life. If you bet money on this match, remember that betting is a gamble, you should take into account that nani is sometimes angry like this, and think "hm, betting for nestea". .. | ||

If your boss told you to work an extra hour today for no extra pay and no added benefits but you can skip it if you want. What would you do? | ||

This is the difference between a professional gamer/sportsman/worker and a child, you get the job done no matter what. I pay you to do something? You better do it and you better do it well. Pro players need to cut this shit. It's not the first time stuff like this happens. | ||

Hell some people might have stayed up all night just to watch this game or even only bought their ticket for this rivalry? And now they feel cheated because naniwa basically gave them a middle finger. did naniwa ask you to stay up late at night ? No he doesn't care, so shouldn't you . | ||

Yes, you can say that it was same amount of prize money regardless, but as professional players, you don't play simply for money. Therefore, that ranking involved does count as "something" they are playing for. Just like the NBA and NHL regular seasons, teams that know they aren't advancing to the playoffs still play their full games. Just as any professional sports would. Naniwa just simply showed a lack of professionalism and integrity for the sport in general tbh, I cannot for the world of me understand how any sane person could be of a different opinion no professional athlete WHAT-SO-EVER could ever afford to do something like that....ever. Football, Basketball, Tennis, Hockey, it really doesn't matter. If you "throw" a game then all your fans will hate you and your sponsors will leave or even sue you. why would any serious business company invest in something like that? | ||

I completed a project planning a new system and I will start working to make it one of the best systems in the world. ... Some boss decided to cut the budget and I didn't get to do it. Then someone came and asked me to start on a new project. Face it, if you're doing something PROFESSIONALLY. You have to be PROFESSIONAL about it. Nani is his own boss. He doesn't owe you or anyone anything else. He plays SC2 for a living and he decides when he feels like playing since it will in the long run affect no one but him. He doesn't hurt or kill e-sport. He doesn't ruin the Blizzard Cup. He chose not to play the last game, end of story. No need to get all worked up about it. | ||
