He is quite BM. Not gg'ing in the GSL is a big no-no. People have lost much worse games and still gg'ed.

Because he said Nestea doesn't have the best ZvP in Korea? I would agree with that. He has the best ZvZ by far, a great ZvP and a good ZvT but not the "best" in the those last 2.


Not just that, but Nani acts like a brat and is bad mannered in general, has always been, apparently since WC3 also. So he has a point.

He used to be like that, not so much any more, but apparently that was caused by a lot of personal problems he used to have.

Naniwa gets a lot of hate for how blunt he is sometimes, and I can't help but think that's partly to do with the language barrier, his English is good but its not great by any means.


his english isn't that bad that it could lead to him calling nestea an idiot out of lack of vocabulary.

Naniwa acts the exact same way towards himself, so I'm not sure if it was an insult or just Naniwa being his regular self.

He called NesTea an idiot because he pulled the drones to attack, he didn't call him an idiot in general

I'm fairly certain that naniwa who is playing several hours in korea every single day has a better understanding on who has the better ZvP than you do

Look at who Naniwa lost to.

HE said what he said to stroke his own ego.

I kind of agree, he also dissed the entire wc3 community despite trying hard to be good at it and never achieving nothing more than being a complete nobody, he even called Grubby, a much smarter player than he will ever be, a mediocre player.


it was a joke against orc players (because he played ud)

you have to play wc3 to understand lol

He's clearly wrong though. It's pretty much uncontestable now that CoCa has the best ZvP out there, Lucky isn't even that good, and say nothing about Check. They're just the players that beat him.

To be honest, it's probably more that Lucky and Check are good vs. Nani more than anything else. It's really hard to get a perspective on who is the "best" player in a match-up if you beat player X easier than you do Y, and it does feel like Y is better than X in that case.

Maybe he has gotten "better" as well as Idra has, but the match versus Lucky didn't really show anything new, instead the "same old" Naniwa IMO. Yeah definitely, language barrier might have something to do it.

But anyway, no one is forcing anyone to like someone so.. :-)

Lost all respect for Naniwa. Why would you call someone an idiot when you beat them once?

There is a difference in saying pulling drones was idiotic and saying Nestea is an actual idiot.


what is the exact wording? the quote above says he called him an idiot for doing that

Also I'm surprised, Check having the best ZvP? hes not even in GSL lol

Sure but to say, as a spectator who's probably in gold, that a pro player is full of shit when someone asks him who he thinks is the best ZvPer is ridiculous. What the fuck makes spectators think they know all about balance and the players so well just from watching a tiny sample of games played?


Well, given that there are mutually exclusive opinions among pros in Korea (Oz says coca has best ZvP, nani says Lucky has best ZvP), some of them have to be wrong. "full of shit" is way to harsh a way to put it, but I would say it is probably Naniwa is wrong here. But then, I'm plat, so what do I know?

If NesTea doesn't play in the dark like he did before and skip the brain farts then yeah, I don't like Nani's chances of beating him back-to-back in Bo3's.

The last Bo3 was very unorthodox and both played incredibly risky.

Check with the strongest...HAHAHAHAHAHA. But that's not what he said.


I believe Check has always had quite strong ZvP, though I don't think I would say it is the strongest. So while I'm not sure I would agree (because I obviously don't have first hand experience, or seen enough games) I don't think it is too far out there... especially since Check dropped down from ZvT and ZvZ from what I remember.

Just me who is really annoyed about how unproffesional MLG is on their streams etc. ?? I means.. they must have like almost 10 games to choose from atm and it's the same 2 matches on the 2 main streams.. so unproffesional. They did so many mistakes and they admitted it before, but when are they going to correct things like this? (


I'm actually glad they are only have 1 match on both streams. Each one of these games are so awesome, I would hate to have to pick between them. Although...ya atm both main streams are crowd shots but violet vs jinro is pretty damn sick on beta2

Then how about the Koreans like Oz who say CoCa is the best. I'm sure the Koreans know better than Naniwa.

CoCa has a 100% winrate vP in GSL for a reason.


He was clearly struggling with remember the names when answering that question. He never said anything about Coca so it's very possible he either haven't watch/played him much or just didn't remember to mention him. People act like Naniwa has wrote an essay on the matter.

Not sure, you make jokes if you are talking to a friend or a team mate, but not to somebody you have no ties to.
