EPTNaNiwa not invited to Code S - Page 191
| Forum Index > Closed |
While I understand that there's a need to discuss this matter, this thread has way too many trash posts in it. Please think carefully about what you want to say. Ad hominem attacks on Swedish people in general, calling you fellow Starcraft fans idiots etc etc will be dealt with with harsher punishment from here on out. Keep it civil people. Page 230: Here's some more stuff that'll get you banned! - Conspiracy theory mongering about MLG and GOM - Comparing people to Hitler - Posting useless one liners of arguments that have already been repeated ad nauseum. | ||

In no way was I saying that he should do THIS EXACT SITUATION. He just needed to not do what he did. Literally. He could have proxy 2 gated, cannoned, mass void ray, Mothership rush, anything. He could have played it like a ladder game. | ||

Anyone who is against this decision needs to think again carefully, because they're looking like fools right now. Isn't it more like 2 months now with the new format? That is a lot. | ||

I agree, but i still think Naniwa could have Cannon rushed, proxy gates, fast DT, or something. What he did had 0 % of winning, and even worse he didn't even micro the probes. | ||

He got banned cause he threw the game. It was apparent and can be deduced by anyone with a semblance of human intelligence. So stop using probe rushing and trying to compare it to other strategies because you have missed the whole fucking point and your not helping anything by arguing on this. Naniwa got punished for giving up a game that he was obliged to play. That is unprofessional. I'm not gonna talk about the severity of the punishment, but anyone who thinks that Naniwa did the right thing is wrong. If he tried any other strat that might have worked, that would have at least hidden his intention to throw away the game completely. Its not about the action itself, its about what his actions conveyed. So stop missing the point and stop trying to argue about something that dosen't fucking matter at all. It breaks my brain to see some of the posts here trying to compare strategies now. | ||

When he stops behaving like a child, he will stop being treated like one. Simple and easy. Thank you for speaking on my behalf, although I am a fan, I was not offended about what Naniwa did. Disappointed? Sure, but more so because of his behavior then anything else. | ||

anyone who has ever competed in sports knows that you don't play to your potential in a meaningless match and often don't make a real effort. naniwa made it pretty obvious given that, but i as the audience can't blame him for that. | ||

Is isn't, but at least there should be a strategy.. to do something... sitting there propped up on one arm and right clicking your probes to the enemy base really isn't much of a strategy.. | ||

There was no Code A spot to gain as has been stated millions of times before. And even so CoCa got the worst punishment of the two so shouldn't even be complaining. | ||

Not playing seriously and throwing a game are two different things. 3. Hero just got owned tbh lol..I'm pretty sure no one wants to go 0-4. 1. Ladder stats was a requirement for Code S at the time. 2. Really? So GSL would have been cool with a 12 probe rush then? After all it has about the same chance of winning yet could be construed as "not playing seriously" by anyone with half a brain. 3. He went with a cannon strategy that completely relies on killing off the Zerg's Overlords with an air opener. Only he didn't go air. | ||

Which is the sad thing in the whole situation. Nobody would of complained if it was a stupid 4 gate or... useless cannons at a watch tower but they whine and punish when a player comes out and openly gives up a game rather than deceiving them because it is a useless game. You change the rules, not punish the player on made up rules. That's what ESWC(i think) did when Stephano+bratok both forfeited their games. A player plays to WIN. Despite people's popular belief that a player owes the fans something, he doesn't. He plays a game he loves and plays it to win. period. | ||
