That said, if he wasn't interested in competing, he should never have come to the event to start with - it's not that people don't like him (some people do) but he doesn't make it easy when he just decides to quit after one game. I think it's safe to retire Naniwa as the "foreigner hope" now. If he has no hope why should we? | ||

if you are in that booth and you can't bring your A game to the table you just don't want to play and get demolished in 10 minutes. I think Naniwa realised he just couldn't bring himself to the required level and forfeited. The best decision...probably not. But we have to understand it and not go fucking apeshit on a guy. | ||

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. I'd honestly be surprised if we see a foreigner winning a premier tournament, getting second place, or make it to blizzcon. Hasu and snute are beasts but sadly Koreans dominate sc2 and LoL too hard. | ||

If he had a shred of class he would have realized, "Hey I don't even like this game and I'm not even going to try at this tournament guess I shouldn't go". | ||

All my respect for Naniwa you must be brave to forfeit in such an event. forfeiting was fine IMO. it's very sad that his spot didn't go to another player, but i think it's clear that naniwa was in the booth trying to make it work and it just didn't work. you're right, if he felt it was time to go, forfeiting was the right thing to do however, his commentary during the game and on twitter is really pointless and reflects terribly on him | ||

To me Naniwa is the most succesful foreign protoss player in Starcraft 2. People can hate him as much as they want but I do respect him as a player. No one can take his success away from him. Success doesn´t always include pleasing others. | ||
