Polt valiantly provides us with more games... efforts are overshadowed by Naniwa trolling lol

Wow you guys are fucking morons, it's not "disgusting" behaviour, it's not even disrespectful, put yourself in his shoes for a moment and stop being cuntbags. He went 0-3 in a huge tournament and gets eliminated and is then forced to play a game that doesn't matter. He does not play this game to entertain you so stop being spastics.

A few pages back someone actually said they hope it's the end of his Starcraft career.. like seriously?

Actually, he does play games to entertain us. That's what eSports is. Advertisers and sponsors financially support professional SC2 players, teams and tournaments because of viewers like us. There are viewers because we are entertained by the games. See how this eSports thing works?

Wrong.

You have described why "esports" exists... but your entertainment is not what is motivating the players to compete and win.

Indirectly it is, no viewer=no money=no motivation to play

What strickes me the most is that Nani rages about how people see and bitch about him...
And then threw a game in 45 seconds just because he was down 3 - 0 and wanted to leave.

The thing is, this tournament was supposed to be the most epic in terms of players and games because they are all in their best gaming shape... Nani I'm sorry you lost your three first games, but how can you disappoint all the viewers, especially the ones who were cheering for you just because you were so pissed ?

Yesterday HerO didn't play well, he did apologies to his fans, HuK did this too already. When I see them like that, it makes me feel bad because they feel that they owe us something, and they don't, I'm not bitching about them when they lose because I know how it feels. but Nani isn't even trying, he rages about the haters, and then gives them a reason.


I know this is unorganized but that how my brain is at the moment, so I guess it's okay

yea he totally was saying in that interview the other day that he was misunderstood etc. Then he does this lol.

I dont see any other players doing this hardly ever, why is it okay for naniwa to do this, wouldnt you respect a player more who played out all of his games regardless? Tons of players play out their group stages when they know they wont advance and they try their hardest anyways, for their fans and for their team.


I respect players that actually do what they wan't to instead of trying to please others. It's downright retarded to have to act like something you are not just because some people don't approve of you. I would say both of the foreigners in this tournament has that personality.

I just sent an e-mail to gom expressing my dissapointment with Naniwa's unprofessional behavior, and encourage others who share my dissapointment to do the same.

Oh yea, aren't you special. Disrespecting people for expressing disappointment with Naniwa's unprofessionalism in an otherwise professional produciton.

Is there any Korean in the GSL that would do what Naniwa did? no. Did people pay to watch Naniwa vs Nestea, the most hyped up match in the group stages? Yes. What Naniwa did suggests that he believes he's bigger than the GSL. If that's how he feels he doesn't belong there.

I'll be emailing Gom too. Looks like I'm a reddit hero

... go report the 6 pools too... especially those after they lost a game...
In the future people will report every cheeser as they are disappointed and the player is unprofessional for not playing a "proper" game

Would've been funny if it went that way:

Naniwa and NesteA spawn ingame.

Not really, then Nestea would have had to kill the nexus.

Oh dude, don't kill my dreams

Yeah, you're obv right :D

When it matters, which is where winning a tournament comes into play.
The game should not have been played in the first place.

Eh no, it isn't. He had nothing to gain from that match, he's there to win tournaments, not entertain you.. he was already knocked out of the tournament therefor he had no reason to play it out.

If people whine about naniwa not finishing a useless game, then players should be forced to never gg in a game but play it out until the last building is destroyed. Because otherwise I will complain to their teams beause I want to see long games played to the end yada yada yada.

What naniwa did was about as serious as type gg prematurely. and that happens alot. People need to stop be so damn dramatic about this. Its like Naniwa comitted a crime and that you feel violated or something.

Get over it!!

Think of Blizzard Cup as the biggest invite tournament of this year. Only winners (orin case of Naniwa 2nd place) of various high profile tournament in this year got invited. People expect great games... and now we got a probe rush vs zerg ... To be honest it couldn't be even called probe rush. Naniwa didn't utilise the faster shield regeneration compared to drone hp regen.
It was basically a big i dont care. Lets finish it.


I expect great games not cheesy Terran all in's??? so that ruined my day... they ruined it by doing best of 1 as well.. that ruined my eperience???

Everyone has different opinions, best of one is just full of cheese and makes for boring ass games. Cannot wait for the next satge as this whole group stage was pretty much one big bore fest with the odd great game inbeetween. Then again do what you have to do... Nani's own fault that he was in this situation but I would of bothered trying in the alst game eithier... not like he earns anything extra from winning that one game...

Live and Let Die!

Naniwa did it becouse he had no chance of advancing, when he plays in a tournament he plays to win. He had no reason to put effort into that game. I don't really understand why you are mad at him, to me he didn't do anything wrong.

Idra 6pools MC in MLG because he doesn't want to play, and doesn't get anywhere NEAR as much shit as Naniwa for worker rushing in a game that doesn't mean anything. Complete fucking joke.

yea but 6 pools actually win games, probe rushes dont.

MOON fucking 6 pooled in the finals of a dreamhack, was he trying to lose???

I think you will find Tyson was heavily punished and ridiculed for that
