I'm kinda suprised people are praising Naniwa for this condescending remark. In any other serious sport players would be heavily criticized when they voice such an opinion.


Part of me wants to yell 'ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?' but then I realized that his name backwards is phoenetically:

Awinan ~~ I Winning

So, is the rematch of NightEnd and Zenio being played on day 2 of the event? Liquipedia is not updated, just 1-1 for both players.

Just remember that if you're not entertaining someone, you're not going to make any money.


You'd be surprised by how much a man can entertain by winning. The Yankees built their dynasty on it.

Yeah, that was the original intent of the post and then I got distracted by random coincidence.

Also you Romanians still can't get sarcasm. :\

It's not us that started the 'You hurt my feelings', you guys did. And why would we care about the "diabetic version of Tasteless" \end quote.

And you getting distracted remands me of the Simpsons episode where Homer finds his identical twin. An a second after he sees a fluffy dog and his attention shifts instantly to the fluffy dog. "You are my identical twin. Hey fluffy dog.... aaaa"

He could be bad mannered all the way to the finals and still make 6500$. So what are you talking about?You must confuse players with clowns or comedians.

Lol I see Naniwa hurt the kids again. I cant belive how touchy som people are. Buhu naniwa said he play to win and not to entertain and we feel so hurt now and attacked, and raped.

Whats wrong with people? This happens in EVERY other sport aswell. Greec won the European championship in fotball in the most boring way ever. alot of whiner complained that it was boring as shit but guess what they said?

I can bring out teams who won championship by being so boring that it was more fun to watch paint dry and they all say the same thing. And of course the fans love it but the haters hate it.

SC2 is a huge esport not because people entertain like destiny or incontrol. Its huge because its a competative exiting game. So even though entertainment often comes as a bonus, in the end it is all about the winning.

The thing is that his 2 gate + blink play build is actually very entertaining to see.

And Carmac about Naniwa :

"The situation with naniwa happened later on (naniwa having lag issues that affected the outcome of his game). His instant emotional reaction was to want to discontinue playing, but he came back to finish his games on another PC and won the group. Throughout the entire situation - from the start until after all of his games, he was considerate and understanding and his behaviour was very professional. No bullshit."

So all the haters from yesterday crawl in a hole and die.

I'm anti naniwa, but making your players play under these stupid conditions is absolutely mind blowing. It'd be like if they told tennis players to play when it's raining nonstop. Of course the players don't have to stand by that shit.

NightEnD gets another chance
In today's last StarCraft II match between Zenio and NightEnD the Romanian Protoss player experienced major lag issues during an important fight on Dual Sight, the third and final map. After two hours players and admins reached the following conclusion: There will be a regame between Zenio and NightEnD. As the disadvantaged player, Zenio is entitled to decide if he wants to rerun only the third map or the whole best of three. The match will be played tomorrow and broadcasted by Apollo and TLO after Group C is finished.
