But still, would people have been so much more happy if naniwa done a 4 gate that was bad executed?
Tbh NAniwa took a bad decision probably due to him being angry and tired from the game and gom not letting him forefit the game. He has gone out and apologized for it and said that he did not want to offend anybody.
Still people seem to think its no biggy that GOMTV punish him for being disrespectful and unprofessional but then themself going out and outrigt call him an amateur and that is even more disrespectful and unprofessional. I mean cant people see what a doublestandard it is to punish someone for something that you then do yourself?
Also all the koreans that go out on twitter etc and bm him, is that showing respect? Koreans do not live up to their own standard.
Naniwa did a misstake that he apologized for, koreans and gom just show how freaking bm they are.

There is a GIF someone made in the other thread. Dont exactly know which page but it was around 220 i think. Naniwa is playing one handed, only with his mouse, resting his head in the other hand. He clearly didnt try to win. Noone can seriously question that.
edit: @everyone who doesnt get the problem: GOMTV ofc is interested in showing matches to get the audience pleased. If naniwa had played a half hearted 4 gate they had one game more to stream. Essentially.
This is ofc understandable. In the end they have a product to sell.
Thing is, GOMTV reacted as unprofessional as naniwa in the first place. This is where, at least my, hate comes from.
edit: And ofc they can deny a player his place, since its their "product" and they can do whatever the fuck they like with it.

GOMTV wrote in their terms that they have the rights to revoke a players seed. No matter which angle you look at it, no matter how much the game didnt seem to matter to anyone, they have the right to do it. This have nothing to do with rules, but everything to do with what GOM have the rights to do. Some say why not ban mule dropping or bitbybit? Well at least they dont attack at 1mins 24 secs. Guys he wasted people's time to watch a 1min game when everyone thought it was gonna be a nice rematch. I support GOMs decision because A they can do it. and B nani did smth wrong and thats that.
We dont like what you do, we drop you. Simple. Stop trying to say as if not banning him will be a good idea. Can you come out with a better punishment? I doubt it.

Because the fact that he selected his probes at the beginning of the game and a-moved them to nestea's base wasnt enought to show that lol?

You have watched American Football right? Most games? Players, ALL THE PLAYERS, leave the field BEFORE THE GAME IS OVER. When the results of the match are final, they END THE GAME. Simple as that. To say NaNiwa did something wrong is like telling someone who points out your mistake they are retarded. GOM messed up, NaNiwa called them on it, and GOM lashed out like a child. What about proxy 2-gate? It has a ~0% winrate in GSL, but players still use it. Isn't this the same as preventing interesting games? When I see someone going for this strat I turn the vod off and either watch the next game, or the next match. Guess what? I've never been wrong about guessing who loses, its the proxy-gater. By this same ruling, GOM needs to revoke the seed of each player who has proxy-gated their opponent because it offends the audience. Yes, I watch NFL games every Sunday/Monday/Thursday. Players don't leave the field in the middle of the 4th quarter when they are losing 45-0 (which is what Naniwa did). They play the game out. They only leave the field when the game actually is over (team which is losing has no opportunity to run more plays before time expires). And anyone who doesn't play with their full effort during those last minutes will surely get benched for the next game(s), if not released from the team. And worker rush + a-move with hands on chin and not using keyboard =/= proxy 2-gate. About as unprofessional as you can get when it comes to playing SC2 at a live, televised tournament. You don't make any sense, and the last part of your first paragraph is just lies. One of the most succesful and talented players in the NFL of all time is notorious for his lack of effort, with no consequence to his starting job. Also in the NFL it's frowned upon if the winning team keeps trying in the 4th while being ahead 45-0. It's "running up the score", "unsportsmanlike" and "unprofessional". I find it silly, but it still is the reaction it gets. If you follow the NFL you should know that. Also if a team is too far behind even the losing team is seen taking a knee to end the game. LOL NO. EVERYTHING YOU SAID IS FALSE INFORMATION. How the hell can you be so stupid... When a team is winning 45-0, it's not frowned upon at all for them to keep trying. THAT'S THEIR ******* JOB YOU *****. They get paid MILLIONS to play a game. and NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO when a team is losing 0-45, they NEVER just take a knee and give up. Do you know why? BECAUSE THEY ARE GETTING PAID MILLIONS TO PLAY THE ******* GAME!!!! When players or teams stop trying, THAT'S when they get criticized. Don't be such an ignorant person ffs...
Yeah, sure, it's not common knowledge for any NFL-fan at all, I made it all up.
I probably wrote this wikipedia-page too right?: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Running_up_the_score

Congrats Sen and Idra. Can't wait!!!

Wow this is more like thievery than a punishment imo

What about dropping mules during the GSL november finals Jakji vs Leenock? That is offending the opponent, no? Winners and losers alike drop mules. When a player loses a game, they drop all of their mules in their enemies army then types gg and leaves.
When the winner has like 8 orbitals just sitting because he's so far ahead, he drops mules because it doesn't hurt him strategically or economically. In many cases if the person who got owned doesn't leave, the winner will set the mules to auto repair and use them.
It's neither abusing the game nor the opponent. Dropping mules for no reason is like dancing your units. It's a part of the game, and you can do it if you want to, considering it won't affect the outcome of the game. If you're an idiot and drop 9 mules then lose because you don't have enough income, or if you dance your army when your opponent has 2 hidden bases and then he kills you, then you are a fkin' idiot and deserve to lose. You are then forced to lose fair and square, and accept your ridiculous loss.
If you see a terran player make a million command centers across the map against a zerg that wins with only t1 units, just to force the zerg player to tech to t2 and build a spire and waste time killing a million command centers across the map, THAT is considered abusive behavior and offensive.

I just became a huge fan of Naniwa today and lost a lot of respect for GOM TV. He's a professional player, not a puppet to dance for money and ratings.
Why was this game even played? It's GOM's fault for setting up the tournament the way they did. Taking Nani's invite away is just a low blow and pretty hypocritical on their part.
|
This is absolutely disgraceful by GOM.
To get someone to play a meaningless match and then get angry when he simply gives it up. What exactly is the difference between this and Naniwa just going for some stupid timing push that he knows will fail?
|
I don't think you understand! This is more than just a ban, this is GOM saying anything you do against us we can punish. By not playing and speaking out against the bad quality of the tournament Nani was punished. This is clearly East Asian authority ruling what is logical, and in essence analogous to corrupt capitalism. If you actually take your premises to be that Naniwa for acting out against the bad structure of GOM's tourn. set-up then is correct, then you say this and a heck of a lot more than this that if I a Canadian was to go to Parliament and ''peacefully protest'' against, lets say the introduction of a Farmers Board or Farmer's Tax which nobody really wants I should be locked up or banned from protesting even though it does not DIRECTLY hurt anyone. That is just nonsensical!
If people in the world really want Democracy they should learn how it really works and live with the consequences, under any Liberal or Conservative statute the government should act to limit the personal freedoms on individuals when their actions ''Directly'' harm or ''Excessively'' harm other individuals or entities. Naniwa clearly would reduce the profits of GOM but GOM would get these profits through illegitimate means otherwise, so although direct harm is done he is a player playing for himself not GOM, and thus GOM has no claims to making him work for no gain. He also had never dealt any excessive harm to GOM. However GOM revoking Naniwa clearly reduces his direct chance or ''opportunity'' to win, thus they are directly hurting his
To everyone making these absurd accusations that Naniwa was at fault, I suggest you learn some more about this and other subjects because you are clearly on the wrong side of the coin.

NaNiWa was going to very nicely be given a free Code S spot, just because GOM thought it would be awesome to have a NaNi vs NesTea rivalry, plus NaNiWa is a really good player. NaNiWa fucked up and completely disgraced himself, his team, and his fans by showing a ridiculously horrible showing, and refusing to play a game against NesTea on live Television.
imo he should be banned from GSL for several months, not just stripped of the Code S gift he was going to be given.

This situation has effect my emotional state for the last day. I really hope that it doesn't just stay like this, or I will end up pretty depressed.

Im sorry, but you clearly dont know how professional sports work. Don't call someone else ignorant when you clearly don't have any clue about what happens at the end of a sports game. If a team is down 0-45 they stop trying. The game is over. The winning team stops trying and, like he said, they are criticized for running up the score if they dont. It's their job to play a game, they lost the game already because its 0-45. Its naniwa's job to play the tournament, he lost the tournament already and trying has no effect on either naniwa or anyone else just like trying has no effect on the 0-45 game. A round robin is comparable to a single game or match, not a season, and there's a point where you stop trying because you know you cant do anything anymore.
Do you know what's ruining esports? Shit like this. Not what naniwa did, because that's understandable and shouldnt even have happened because there shouldnt have been a game, but what GOM did. I don't want to try and be a progamer when the main organization can do whatever the fuck they want and punish people that didn't break the rules.

Coca throws a game that doesn't matter in a way that is completely obvious.
Coca loses his Code S spot.
Naniwa throws a game that doesn't matter in a way that is completely obvious.
Naniwa loses his Code S spot.
Bottom line is, if you're going to throw a game, don't announce it to the world.

Well, i deeply apologise for my try to more or less deliver what a fellow TL'er requested.
There are plently of people who claim it was a legitimate try from naniwa.
If im not mistaken, naniwa himself twittered something along the lines of: "I practiced that probe rush, i was sure i could win". Note: This is not exactly what he said.

Both Naniwa and Coca should be given their Code S back. Of course, that's very unlikely to happen now. But luckily, for both of them I'm very sure they are capable of winning it back quite quickly, as long as they are allowed to play. For relatively young players, who are full time progamers with serious long term goals, eventually these accidents will not matter that much. Their personal growth is likely to reach far higher, and such silly setbacks can't stop that. But to me personally, the punishments have been very unjustified and unreasonable. More the sign of fear and insecurity than maturity.

gom pulling a kespa, what a shame.
stop asking players to play games for nothing so you can hype up and profit from some meaningless rivalry game (naniwa and nestea).
gom just showing their true colors here, and its about greed.

We wanted Naniwa to try. This was actually a pretty anticipated grudgematch and at least I was looking forward to see some more high level PvZs. As I said earlier, GOM is paying Naniwa, what like 900 dollars? To play out all his matches. The least he can do is act like a professional and play out the game in a proper way.
As for GOM calling him an amatuer, I thought it was pretty obvious that he acted pretty amateurishly, even by foreign standards. If they call someone someone a amateur for acting like an amatuer, how is that double standard? Also, people need to learn to differentiate between people making official statements and personal ones on Twitter.
