Understandable thought..

Trying to catch up what happened, reading this on my cell phone. Can someone recap? Did people really boo?

Lost to polt after a failed cheese. blamed lack of soundproofness. Retired from the tournament. Got boo'd off the stage.

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.


He could have at least Probe rushed two more times.

Or done one base carrier.

Something.

But whatever. Hero and Dear will provide wonderful protoss play.
Yes, I email sponsors... to thank them. Don't post drunk, kids. My king, what has become of you?

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.

In SC2 General forum there is even a post saying thank you to Naniwa, made before the tournament started

It's not. In fact, I would go as far as to say that the Swedish fans may be the angriest right now.

The sad thing is, 14 other players will get exactly the same compensation as this clown.

Yeah in Sweden we do this stuff all the time x)) No, Naniwa is definitely not the average swede, or average anything I would imagine. Swedes might have an easier time tolerating the behavior but I would not stretch it further then that...

Its just that this time, he overstped the line so far not even his common defenders steps up anymore.
