EXACTLY. If Naniwa isn't putting his heart into it, then there's no point in playing. I don't know why everyone is so angry. This is to be expected, considering he already has plans for retiring.

He's giving up a chance at 100000$, how is that anything but stupid?

He has no chance, why even try?


Yeah, that is a great mindset to be successful in life.

P.S. does this mean we get to see Life play?

Dont talk shit, when you really dont know why he forfited... He didnt want to play cause he could hear the commentators to much... and thats not good... its like playing poker, and someone tells the other players what cards you have.. is it still fun to play then?


Don't even try to defend this bullshit Naniwa pulled. I've been cheering for him to but this was just embarassing. Last series of his career (maybe) and he wants to go out like this? Embarrasing himself and disrespectful to the viewers and the players that could have taken his spot instead.

Woah, I've always defended Naniwa. Liked his way of doing things. But this, to do this against his fans and the truly AMAZING audience at Katowice.. it's just not fair.

Nah, Naniwa. I'm just glad if you quit today, if that's how you wish to manage things you have nothing to do in the lovely StarCraft II-scene.
No Surprises.

It's unfortunate that it's his birthday, but it's still his behaviour that led to this
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

Well this is disappointing but let's be real. Someone like Hasuobs isn't here because he's not good enough to be here. Once again Naniwa is the only foreigner to make it to a world's finals. He's not the hero the foreigner scene needs but he is the one it deserves because honestly foreigners suck shit. You were stuck with Naniwa solely because he was the only one good enough to make it to the big stage. Now he's gone and you can cheer for that, but I doubt we will ever see a ro16 at world's that isn't fully Korean ever again.

He should have forfeited his spot if he was going there to not put any effort in.

This is the first time I heard you need soundproofing in Lol.

I doubt you watch LoL then because it really could use soundproofing booths.


fucking every game that has imperfect information needs soundproofing.

I hope this is the last we see of Naniwa.
Curious that we spend more time congratulating people who have succeeded than encouraging people who have not. 파이팅! ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ"

At least Naniwa can fall back on his people skills.
