So the question is, which Hero shows up?
The good championship winning Hero, or the nervous "im getting stomped today" Hero

Got to realise that pro gaming is fucking stressful,

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.

well said and agreed. be the bigger person and remember that he's human even if he doesn't show that respect to others. lowering yourself to his level doesn't fix anything, nor is it "justice"

at the same time, still ridiculous, still childish, still deserves scorn

You cant force a player to play maybe he had a bad day, maybe he didnt sleep well and there was to many noice. All my respect for Naniwa you must be brave to forfeit in such an event.

If you are going to a huge exclusive tournament you play no matter what. THAT is brave. Walking out on it isn't.

Naniwa such a childish behaviour. He should have given the spot to some other players like Hasuobs who would have deserved the spot 1000x more.

Now imagine how much EG are paying Naniwa to pull an exit like that.

holy subtle troll


This guy isn't actually a troll he's just a really bad poster with weird ideas. He likes to defend protoss against whiners which is good and then cry about terran in his next post.

Troll or not he has a point that you can agree with or not.
If I was Naniwa I would have done pretty much something similar (probably I would have been way smarter that this, but heh).
Probably that makes me a bad person, but I guess that my reason would be bashed by anyone here...

In any case, like Naniwa pointed out

ive given my life and soul to starcraft 3 years and then the second i dont like it at the moment i get so much flak, LOL this communtiy <3

Not really defending him, but sometimes this community feels too self entitled.



We would've sent him off with cheers had he played the series legitimately and lost. Or even if he forfeited the tournament and retired quietly, though less so. This was hugely irresponsible though.

You cant judge Naniwa maybe in his land (Sweden) what he did is common. Another culture and another perspective

Yes, naniwa was the only talented foreigner ever


Pretty much the only one left. I can't name any others. IEM and other tournaments will drop SC 2 anyway with its lacking viewer numbers so it doesn't really matter either way.

Naniwa forfeited after a scouted proxy gate citing soundproof booth issues. Crowd booed Naniwa as he walked off the stage.
