I think IEM will turn out to be the first tournament that has once been big and meaningful and will just vanish, because this is just disappointing and can barely be called professional.


You are an idiot, sry. There are 3 Games, and the only one that has problems is Starcraft2.

League of Legends even has over 80.000+ Viewers...


Im watching LoL in the SC2 downtime, its a fun game that I would like to learn for when I get mad at sc2 and start tilting,


If you get on tilt by SC2, DO NOT TRY LOL, you will tilt even harder trough failure of teammates.


I don't care -_- i have some friends who play and I usually play with them. Also - I have no goals for LoL. I have goals for SC2. I want to be masters in SC2. In LoL I would be elated to be the equivalent of Gold league and I would be happy there.

I;ve played a lot of team games competitively and I can handle idiot team mates better than my own tilt and my own shortcomings in SC2.

Oi this is just painful. To the people saying this only happens with sc2 you missed last year where an entire day of LoL had to be canceled because of issues that lasted for hours.

Indeed, but 90% of the people were just saying naniwa was whining, everybody had same lag etc etc. I hate when people state shit without having all the facts. The point still is, if someone like grubby complains it must certainly be true, but if naniwa complains he just a whiny kid. And I think this is sad.


Well, sad as it may be this is a attitude Naniwa has brought upon himself from years (and literally years) of simply acting like a whiny bad mannered brat. Now he reaps what he has sown. He might not care though.

Grubby seemed pretty angry and frustrated from the things he was typing in chat. Naniwa could have handled the situation identically and people wouldn't give his complaints anywhere near as much weight.

They would pass it off as Naniwa being Naniwa


so? how can u blame them when naniwa repeatedly showed lack of respect, sportmanship and so on, starting VERY early in his wc3 days and never stopping. Rly who would take him srsly?

but thats not the issure here so lets stop the naniwadebate at this point

What is sad?
The fact that Naniwa earned that reputation and now everyone assumes that?

Yes assumptions are stupid. Judge on facts.

Naniwa had a few incidents in the past that were BM or controversial or whatever you wanna call it.
Grubby has a history of being good mannered about everything.

Who would you take more serious in a situation where tempers might flare?


That's my point. It's fortunate that this happened to Grubby rather than Naniwa for a second time because now the issue will actually be taken seriously.

In any case regardless of the reputation of the player in question if there are such serious lag issues then it's something IEM has to address and fix.

Personal attitude should not influence how you are treated by admins in the event of technical difficulties. Rules should be evenly applied. Bad attitude should only influence your fanbase (or lack thereof) and your options regarding teams, who rely on sponsorship and a good public image

He can be correct and that description will be just as applicable. It's not just what and why, but how

Yeah true, but it's not like people hate nani for no reason. He brought it on himself during the course of many years and it doesn't seem like he's trying to manner up at all. Anyway, enough drama. Game's back on :>
you're wrong

Lol. I was bored and looking at the TLPD for Zenio. ZvP is his "worst matchup"
Korea: vP: 9-18 (33.33%)
International: vP:14-2 (87.50%) (by far his best)
lol. I know it doesn't really mean anything but I found it comical

Not looking good so far. The worst problem is with the airports, that need to be "upgraded" in order to be able to handle the massive amount of flights that brazil is going to receive.

Edit: But it is not as bad as some people are trying to make it sound. There's a bunch of people who are hating because the world cup is being held here with no good reason.
