So much bullshit here, there is literally nobody in this thread at all, who would of given up the chance of playing in a 100k tournament that you qualified for.

I'm not saying his actions weren't shitty, but this is just so pathetic you all saying 'he should of just given up or given his spot to someone else' there is every chance he believed he could of had a great first game and then rediscovered some of the passion (since I don't think it's tournaments as the reason why he doesnt want to play anymore).

Let's stop bullshitting here, you would all of done the same thing, even if you didn't care for the game anymore.

I would have gone to the tournament you are correct. But I would have at least played three fucking games. I would have NEVER forfeited or not tried to win in that situation. That's just bullshit and if he planned to do something like that he should have given up the spot.


Yea, he should of, and that's something he'll regret eventually, but come on, most of the people in this thread are being incredibly retarded, sitting there as if they have some kind of moral high-ground when there is no doubt that most would of done the same thing.

That bullshit is boring. He earned the place, it was his, that's it.


Speaking of moral high grounds, how does the supreme being that is you even bother talking to the degenerate bullshitting retards we all are ?


Oh shut up. Jesus.

I really want to focus on the next game and forget this whole fiasco, can we try doing that?

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.

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

It really isn't fine, every other player hasn't had an issue so far. It's too much of a coincidence with his recent announcement. Just looks like he wanted an excuse.

well no one can prove what was in his mind so of course i can't counter your argument. to me, i think he realized he was in a bad emotional state after the first game and didn't think he could play any more games without embarrassing himself and IEM.

Agreed with most of what you said but I can't believe he gave a shit about IEM or anyone for that matter.

i guess. obviously i agree that he has attitude problems, no one can dispute that. but it's hard to say with people like him. i've heard him say that he "says stupid things" and i've seen him show regret for his outbursts. that doesn't excuse it, but i do think in his heart he's just a person who has issues with frustration, and i don't think it's impossible that he thought "ok, i can't do this, this isn't good for anyone"

but yeah. he should address his issues so he can be more respectful and positive toward others

I wish Naniwa hadn't even shown up. What a waste of a spot. Watching him punk out like that was not surprising at all, but it still made me sad and disappointed. I'm glad he's retiring. Good riddance. I'd love to see a count of how many tournaments he's forfeited or pulled out of at the last second. He's been pulling this shit for years, and I'm glad he's gone.

That's the part that gets me. That's the last I'll be seeing of him!

I feel bad for whoever paid for his ticket...

Can someone explain exactly what happened with Nani? I think I get the jist of it but I didn't watch so still not sure what to make of it.


First off: Hello bw wunder kid. How is life treating you?
NaNi wasn't feeling it. Then the first game went to shit (scouted proxy with followed wall-off) and then he really wasn't feeling it, called it a day and packed his stuff.
