Heard about naniwa forfeiting. What happened? Was it a scout to his cheese, followed by an appropriate follow up action that is not commonly seen in the matchup? Doesn't sound like a good/rage enough reason to forfeit. Any explanation for a sc2 dummy?

Stephano vs BratOk will always be the pinnacle of unsportmanship in my heart, and that's why the proberush or this Nani bollock does not faze me.
At least these were out of annoyance or something like that, BratOk vs Stephano was purely vicious and opportunistic.
And people here were laughing

Fuck that

I don't know man

you have to say though that since he's peak when he won the WCS he's never looked like a top contender. In fact, I would call his games in GSL sloppy

Did he forfeit in the middle of the series tho?

Remember when Demuslim and Major forfeited in Shoutcraft America? That was in the middle of the series as well and people didn't rage this much.

They had decent reasons, one was playing a LAN with a high ping and Demu was sick.

It wasn't a rage quit with previous history of rage quitting. (agreeing with aeromi)

Can we start up a Zealously Mental Health fund after they showed this series, and not only did they show it but they showed it over Rogue vs Life?


I know I'm late to the party, but pretty much this. This is shittier for the fans of Naniwa than anyone else. What a disgrace Naniwa is today. He's played some good games and great series in his time, and he's no doubt earned respect for his gameplay, but in the end he chose to follow in the footsteps of Idra rather than Stephano it seems like. It's a damn shame. Least we still have Scarlett.

Idra was never that bad, even though I'm not too sympathetic towards him either.

People were plenty pissed off with demuslim, reddit threads abound, and plenty of people pretty pissed off that he was complaining about an na scene before getting drunk as fuck the night before

Was it confirmed that he was trashed the night before? I remember there was a picture of him at a bar or something.
