EPTI assume he left his hand on the keyboard
NaNiwa not invited to Code S - Page 206
| 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. | ||

I mean he played under the games rules, if the games were entertaining or not is based on opinions of the viewers and people don't share the same opinions so basing it on that is flawed in it's own right. | ||

He has NO results from any of these tournaments. I'm not sure he even deserves Code S in the first place. Stop handing out opportunities to the SAME person to flop. I like Naniwa but I also like this decision regardless of this week's drama. Are you somehow suggesting Idra deserves it more? Wow. | ||

If a foreigner wants to participate, fine. BUT play the rules and the cultural norms! There is nothing wrong with what Naniwa did by some of your standards, yes. BUT THIS IS GSL we are talking about. And this is the exact same reason why "foreigners" are frowned upon or simply "aren't good" enough. Because there is a simple lack of professionalism or etiquettes! You don go around doing your jolly business visiting other people's work place. You play by the rules and live by them if you wanna a piece of it. Frowning upon "foreigners" just because their culture is different? Not very professional! | ||

They are pissed that he gave up on the game. Gonna say it one last time. Please stop talking about strategies, that is not the point. Stop kidding yourself. GOM didn't care if Naniwa wanted to win or not. They were pissed because he didn't give them the show they wanted. If they played it like the showmatch GOM wouldn't have complained. They were annoyed about the lack of entertainment not that Naniwa "didn't want to win". | ||

But Naniwa was not raised in a culture where you're not supposed to show any emotions. He was very disappointed about losing the first three games so close - and they all all-inned him - what led to him showing emotions. I've seen someone win a GSL match after 6pooling (I think it was July). Have you ever seen anyone win with a probe rush in GSL, or even in a league higher than bronze? Nope, so it doesn't have the same chance of winning. | ||

Because Nestea would have shown a completely new level of inspiring play never before seen in that match, right? And what does his birthday have to do with anything? Naniwa gave him a birthday present -- a free win so he didn't have to go home 0-4. Really, he was being kind. (Sarcastic, of course, but the point is that Nestea's birthday is irrelevant and therefore hilarious.) | ||

Gom doesn't give 2 shits about the integrity of the game. They care about the purity of the image and the entertainment of the fans. | ||

Just because you're an idiot and can't realize the justifications GOM has for doing this, you and the other senseless idiots who will protest against GOM are nothing compared to the protests that would have happened and actually made a huge impact against GOM if GOM hadn't punished NaNiWa. | ||

Naniwa's Probe all-in wasn't even effective, PLUS he didn't even bother microing the probes for their shields to generate. He had his FUCKING HAND on his chin FFS. | ||
