EPTNaNiwa not invited to Code S - Page 70
| 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. | ||

They didn't permanently ban him, but revoked his Code S spot and gave it to Sen. 2. They said it was because he offended the audience by throwing away a (meaningless) game against Nestea at the recent Blizzard Cup, and that breaks a rule. With the amount of BM that already exists in the GSL matches inside the game and out (with celebrations), that rule that Naniwa got hit by is bullshit. | ||

Naniwa makes a probe rush and looses on purpose but gets revoked by biased judges. Its pathetic and i hope more people boycott GSL. totally forgot about this!! there are so many other examples of pretty obvious game throwing too why pick on nani? the only difference is that his match is one of the few that actually MEAN NOTHING | ||

It's just a name. Just like, you know, NASL doesn't stick to players from North America? It's still a tournament in Korea, run by a Korean company, with almost nothing but korean players. If you're in rome, act like the romans. | ||

And it has nothing to do with Naniwa as a person. Coca and Choya also got smacked down hard for silly stuff. | ||

If Naniwa had decided not to say that, things might have been different Only because of people like you that just have to have that lip service... | ||

Because it would have been entertaining for the audience. What he did was nothing of the sort and no he did not have the intent to entertain if somehow you find 6 probes rush entertaining. | ||

Even HuK says on twitter: LorangerChris Chris Loranger "As much as everyone likes to overuse "killing esports", noone actually uses in the example when it actually is. Things like this kil esports" From a player that went mothership after it was scouted in a series he still could have won because his spirit had been crushed. Consensus from the pro community was that he intentionally threw that, and he pretty much said the same. | ||

I guess you haven't seen alot of sport! Games that mean nothing are constantly "thrown" in professional sports and no one really cares about it. Does it really matter how you throw the game? In my eyes Naniwa was just honest instead of pretending to play a decent game. | ||

He is. He got many very solid titles to his name and put up really good games in the Blizzard Cup. I don't even know where to start. | ||
