White-ra is sponsored by duckload, and naniwa said he couldnt practise with people on empire in an interview somewhere so this is a good move for him ontop of the funding diginitas can give him.

they just picked up beastyqt as a more than adequate replacement for DieStar. beasty is one of the best euro terrans right now.


I saw beasty play haypro in the XMG tournament. He was pretty impressive though he lost.

hahaha no hes not lets be realistic here.. he just will be not saying what hes thinking like any normal angry person should automatically have graspd how to do... just some people have the urge too bad .. see "greg fields"

Still there beasts so np!


To me that sounds like he is more mature. You can be angry but you shouldn't cry and insult people like a little kid.

I had hoped he would join Team Liquid or EG so he could go to Korea and play there.

But Team Dignitas is now definitely the best Europe based team together with mouz.

Both of those are quite unlikely given his previous manner and attitude


unlikely to join EG because of bad manner? really?

Naniwa changing team for the 6 time

That was the first thing I thought about when I read the title. I'm glad they picked him up, although I wouldn't call them the scariest team, they are scary though.

These are all that play way better then him. I've watched a lot of his games, and a ton of the other toss's i named games, and they impress me way more then Nanawi has ever done.

Well, according to Diestar, Empire is "not enough professional"

I'm not sure if this means the management is bad or it means that they does not have enough money to send the players to lans and give them "professional salary"

KInda sad though , they had a very strong roster but are getting picked apart by teams with bigger budget it seems. Empire also picked up Naniwa immediately after he was dropped from MYM so they deserve a little credit.

Nani's performace has been beastly though. Probably will see him trying for GSL or MLG sooner or later.

It should be :
Huk
Kiwi
White-Ra
Socke
Tyler. (In case of strength)
HuK is leading them all by far and Kiwi with White-Ra are very close to each other, it is very arguable. Althou, I go with the Kiwi.

I would actually go with White-Ra in a match between the two, but I think Kiwi's vZ is better, though white-ra perhaps has better vT macro.
Can you ever argue in favor of something without first proving it?

I took Kiwi over Ra after seeing White-Ra's games versus Ret They looked kinda weak :/ ( and not because Ret is a beast).

My thoughts on it are I'm wondering why Naniwa doesn't just stay on one team. Not in a critical way, just it doesn't seem good for his career.
