I think it's better if they lose potential money and stick by their decision. GSL is legit.

I think that from now on all koreans should be disqualified from Foreign tournaments unless they're prepared to fully answer interviews in English.


Hey nice point there, too bad it makes absolutely no sense at all.



Except it does. Koreans get preferential treatment. They get to have a translator standing there, they can bring their own translator and he can save them from saying stupid things from a PR standpoint.

Plus all foreigners regardless of their country of origin are pretty much expected to answer interviews in English, Koreans should too, and if they can't it's obviously they're not fit to participate in the Foreign leagues.

Good decision from GOM. Imagine that every gamer started throwing away games just because they can and it isn't important for them. Of course their primary concern is money, but the second should always be to please their fans. (showmatches are meaningless too, right?)

Why does it bother you guys that NaNiwa is being tossed from GSL January?

It isn't like NaNiwa has any respect for GOM or their tournaments.


That's really ignorant, he's been wanting to play in Code S for a long time, there's an interview about it way back. He's the most passionate player right now, he doesn't like wasting time on interviews or any of the extra stuff. he just wants to play the game, it's like denying his right to.


Then maybe he shouldn't have disrespected GOM and the GSL by basically walking out and not giving a shit about their competition. Just saying. Seems like a stupid idea to me.


Except he did give a shit about their competition. His entire point was that at that stage there was no competition so he didn't bother either

He kinda put Gom in a hard position. Punish Naniwa, foreign fans get butthurt. Don't punish him, Koreans get butthurt. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

Not if they properly justified their decision, then no one has an actual reason to complain. Booting a player for the integrity of the competition and then fathering in two players without proper qualification is probably the dumbest thing GOM could have done.

I like how they make the rule so vague that it basically becomes a catch-all for any behavior they might not like (Same with the insulting "unfit to be a pro-gamer" nonsense). Or maybe there is a way you can contact GOM if you feel offended by a certain play/strat, etc - I hate 1/1/1 for example ;p


Wouldn't Manner Mules be considered Disrespect and insulting to the other player? I guess I am happy that this will get out of the way. Since worker rushing is a great offense.


The difference is that for the audience it is fun to watch people drop mules and /dance (pros outweigh the cons)...Naniwa didn't give the audience a game and should of just said he forfeited or something instead of blatantly throwing the match. Obviously the rule is there so they can easily get rid of actions that they don't want to see while still having a rule to stand behind.

I'm not agreeing that what they did was right, but trying to find other things that are disrespectful isn't really meaningful for the discussion. The discussion is worker rushing against the rules and punishable, not what else is disrepectful and insulting that gom doesn't punish.

Some of you guys are ridiculous with your 'arguments'
Use some common sense.

That's just the thing, they are using something in their rules and bending it to just kick out whoever they want. If they'd follow their rules, mule drops, manner nexus is all pretty damn offensive to the opponent.

They are just bending their rules to act like they would have a basis to punish naniwa for stating his opinion on a live-show.
Imo such action just hardens the stereotype of censoring-asian-countries. Thanks GOM, it makes me hate you

While I disagree with the decision, it doesn't bother me that much. What DOES bother me is them labeling Naniwa as a prize money hunter when he CLEARLY is not. Maybe they can get past their KR arrogance and actually research the players.
When I say Korean, I mean plays on the Korean server. I don't care what you think it is, that's what I mean when I say it.

I assume you mean Korea? Yup, thats why Korea is miles ahead compared to everyone else when it comes to E-sports. "Amateurish" is not the best word to describe Korea and E-sports.


And Naniwa's mind set is miles ahead compared to many progamers. He is not here for the money at all. He stays in Korea not because he likes it, not because his life is better there. No, he plays there to be the best. He is one of the most dedidacted player out there.

And still GOM stated, he is an amateur prize hunter...

I watched the game live and I was laughing the entire 1 minute 23 seconds or whatever it was one of the most entertaining games I have seen. It was so bad it was hilarious...

Im happy with this decision. Anyone in any other sport would have been punished for this action. There are tons of players that would kill someone to get a chance to play a game on that grand of a stage vs. a player like Nestea. Im a fan of Hero, and it was breaking my heart watching him not play his best. But he still tried. You could see how upset he was, but he handled it like a pro, took his lumps, and still PLAYED the game, because thats what he signed up for. We pay money to watch the tournament, not to watch someone not give a shit. If this happened at a pro sporting event, fans would be outraged. The fact that people support his behaviour is completely mind boggling.

I think the punishment is very fit for what he did.

Serious? I thought the Coca situation was bad enough already, but to kick another code S player like that...Nestea could've very well been sixpooling, and a probe rush would hard counter that.
Cheese :D

Well, I kinda expected it.
Koreans (me being one of them) have a high expectation of 'pros'
the 'pro mindset' is one of the thing that is expected.
And one part of being pro is to give one's best in every matches.

Some might argue, Nani 4 gating is the same thing as this probe rush.
However, as a Korean, I dont see it that way.
Nani's 7probe rush cant even win. And he was playing with one hand as well.
This shows extreme disrespect for the league and the audience.

If he had 4 gated, he might have got some flak for that. But not this much.

Anyways, he is not 'banned'. His seed is merely revoked. I hope Nani does well in other tourneys

Face it, the punishment was so severe because of the fact that the community was so outrated and vocal about it... You guys have yourselves to blame, and now you feel sorry that this happened to Nani and blame GOM...

Quite Pathetic actually, how the community always looks for small to exaggerate and blame organizations because the community can never be held responsible.

The Coca and this incident are to appease the community because the fact is, if its not done, there is outrage, and if there is something done, there is still outrage


Really? So a judging body (which GOM made itself) should just listen to whoever shouts loudest and therefor not be responsible for misjudgements?

Who cares? GOM is an amateur TV-production if nani is an amateur prize-hunt which throws us back about 5-10 years in the developtment of eSports.
