Sad. Clearly Nani's 'new leaf' isn't any different from the leaf he had at AoL.

Agreed, thats not gonna happen though..

Nani haters are foaming as always, who cares about circumstances, the way certain people want any kind of human traits removed from players to make them 'pro enough' spells a future where SC3 will be played by robots that types 'GG' in the end of their games, only. =P

the "good job" was obviously sarcastic - Naniwa's team need to tell him to just NOT TYPE during games, it makes him look so bad


They don't need to tell him anything, we don't like players acting fake. That's his personality and his fans are ok with it.

i agree on IEM being rly, rly bad sadly enough.

the reason is them having so many different locations in foreign countries. why dont they make every tournament in germany --> no technical difficulties and probably even cheaper -,-

Considering they both had the same circumstances i fail to see why. If only one lagged i would agree.

He said his computer freezes from 10 to 10 seconds. That may be from the computer not the internet.

why does every thread devolve into balance whining

Because Terran won! :D


Oh come on there's more reasons. Sometimes it's because Protoss won, others it's because zerg won.

I think we should just nerf blink, charge, forcefields, colossi, storm, carriers, void rays, motherships, lings, banelings, mutas, infestors, broodlords, roaches, marines, marauders, tanks, ghosts, medivacs, vikings and hellions.

Because as we can see from an extremely sample size for each of those units, they are all clearly completely and utterly broken.

edit: Naniwa being Naniwa. I hoped he had matured since hte probe rush thing, but what can you do.

What does Strelok have to do with this? NaNi has every right to forfeit a tournament if he thinks the playing conditions are not good enough. I don't necessarily agree with his choice, but hey, not my call to make.

Is he fucking serious? What a lack of professionalism from Nani. Sorry to say Nani, But your all drama and no gain. Lost a fan. Why fly 20 hours if your not even going to compete? I bet QxG is proud of you. I've been a fan since you first entered the scene, a really big fan infact, But all this crap is unbearable!
Also, You took a spot away from a good toss / or any race who I'm sure would have played all they got even with lag if they got a invite. shame on you!
This is where we begin. Show your true self, Battosai.
