He doesn't just Attack-Move , he spreads his Units ALOT . There's a reason he can break big contains and others can't . He has incredible micro thats his strong-suit . You gotta play to your strenghs to win.

And of the one game MMA won, MMA BARELY won that.

Idra and Naniwa have very similar mentalities... yet people hate naniwa and love idra?


I don't know. IdrA has forfeited several matches as well, did stupid and worthless all-ins as well, yet people love him. Don't understand either.


IdrA isn't awkward and weird. That's why.


His mental state in regards to the game is awkward and weird, but still loved.


Its different from Naniwas though, in an almost indescribable way.


Idra comes off as being sane. Naniwa comes off as being kind a pychopathish imo. Just the way he looks and his mannerisms

Polt, Leenock and MMA all played very well today.

Sadly, what we will remember is the guy who went 0-4.

You know why naniwa has a job playing the game he loves? Because we watch him. He's not our slave, he doesn't need to do what we tell him, but he could atleast show us some respect, and if he doesn't want to play, that's cool, just do a 2 proxy gate or some kind of cheese. Not a worker rush. A lot of people expected to see him play vs nestea. He doesn't give a fuck, that's cool for him. But you can't expect to have that kind of disrespectful atitute and not suffer backlash.

Dude he worker rushed it's not like he left the game right away, he could've just proxygated or proxy stargated and the odds would've been the same...



lol no unmicrod probe rush is just a loss....... proxy gates /stargate etc has a much higher odd of winning ...

Love him or hate him, Polt has made a habit of beating players who are mechanically and strategically better than him. And straight up too, not by cheesing.
Don't hate the player, hate the game

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.

I guess Stephano should be banned from tournaments too, he threw his games vs ClouD @ DH which almost made ClouD advance


Wasnt it bratok? Hehe, those games were funny.


He threw his games vs bratok too, but that was at assembly not DH

I suspect that QuanticGaming is going to release an official statement regarding Naniwa's questionable behavior in Blizzard Cup soon....

Idra actually played a game. Naniwa sent his probes to Nestea and took him hands off the keyboard.

No competitive player would ever want to play a game with no meaning at all.


You know, usually at the end of a soccer/basketball/your-favourite-sport season, there are some games that dont matter at all. The champion is clear, the relegated teams are clear (if it is not NBA), etc etc. Are the remaining games played? Yes, of course.

Was Naniwa tilted after such a bad run? Yes, of course. But you know what - professionalism means that you do what your obligations are, no matter how do you feel, no matter what you you want to do. What he did was basically throwing the game, which was not professional and he should not have done that, this is why so many people are pissed off.

Am I personally pissed off? Hell no, I don't care about Nani and I didn't watch the game, although I'm mildly entertained by the whole drama. But still, what he did was wrong.
