GOM doesn't want to look like a When Cheese Fails episode and decided to punish a player who intentionally threw a game. Like I said before, I didn't say I agree or disagree with it. I think GOM is at fault for their tournament to have games that have little to no meaning for the players, and I think Naniwa is at fault for throwing a broadcasted game intentionally instead of either A. Forfeiting or B. Playing it out/Doing a half assed cheese build. | ||

Name any other professional league in any sport where trying to lose as fast as possible is not punishable? Nani didn't broke any rules. GOM just bends their wishy-washy-you-can-interpret-it-as-you-want rules to have a basis to punish nani. If you relaly think it was against the rules why did it took them so long to figure that out? | ||

Also a lot of people were offended by his behaviour (some of them paying customers, who pay good money to see people play ,not throw). Gom maybe thought they had to do something to keep their "product" up to high standards. Sad for Naniwa, but then again maybe he needed to have this expensive lesson in life by seeing what the results are of, in my view, abnormal and disrespectfull behaviour at several events. edit: And to all those people whining about rules being broken. It's not the legal system or anything nor does it say in their rules they can't revoke an invite to a player. | ||

You might not win straight-up with 6pooling, but you can follow it up and win. That is the difference between these. Do you think you can win a GSL match with Nexus first in PvP? I'm quite certain that the chances to succeed with nexus first is about as high as the 7 probe rush. Does anyone think HerO should be punished? I don't think so. | ||

Everyone talking about boycotting Gom is liar because you know they'll tune in to watch IdrA battle it out in Code-S. Pretty muich this. As much as I'd like to protest about naniwa's treatment by boycotting GSL, I want to watch GSL.  | ||

Entertainment. Buisness. And revoking an invite does not equal banning, just as getting thrown out for misbehaving on a party (invited) does not equal an eviction from your flat (getting thrown out of something you earned for breaking law/rules). Edit: I guess that means CoL are smarter than Quantic. | ||

I don't think I'd mind the punishment if they had provided even remotely accurate reasoning. | ||

If he gets punished in any sort of significant way because GOM had a stupid format I might stop watching GSL. If you can't see that what NaNiwa did was at the very least cowardly and inappropriate then you are just ignorant. The excuse that it didn't matter is irrelevant when his opponent at least had the guts to give the game a go. | ||

Naniwa has got away with disrespecting too many tournaments and having a horrible attitude about a profession most people can only dream about doing. It's about time someone showed him he needs to shape up a bit. There were many other players who would have loved that spot and would have gave their best in all their games, even if they can't advance, just to show their appreciation for being given the opportunity. You do know that this was the BlizzCup and not GSL Code S? And Naniwa moved to Korea to practice in first place. I love it how ppl try to shift the facts so that the can bash naniwa | ||

If they'd follow their rules, mule drops, manner nexus is all pretty damn offensive to the opponent. To be fair most tournaments and companies in general have vague rules that they can bend however they want to kick out people who they don't like. It is always comes down to if they want to enforce the rules or not. | ||
