I find it rare to watch a Nani game where he isn't embarrassing his sponsor with his comments or frustrating opponents by 10 minute AFKs between games to fix some stuff with his mouse.
This was such an unnecessary thing to happen.

that system seems really unprofessional, 75% of the players have penatly points

I think it's a way for them to just save some money instead of to enforce good rules. although I've never been a fan of these tiny 'impromptu' tournament things anyways. rather have more proffesional ones like GSL, I don't even see how this "EPS" thing is even alive.

Seriously, you write a match statement, upload replays, and show up once a week to play sc2 if you get disqualified its your own fault really. As a professional player there are really no excuses. 5 minutes total time spent this season and he would have been fine, even with the no-show. (Wasn't it vs goody as well? suspicious looking at his 100% win rate )

@ attackfighter. yeah... right .... EPS is run by Turtle Entertainment. Biggest E-Sport Company outside Korea. Same people who run Intel Extreme Masters... just a heads up.

I've enjoyed every one of his losses since seeing him lose that craftcup finals to Dimaga in the beta. He raged pretty hard, BMed dimaga pretty hard, and even blamed not walling off with his zealot properly on a "bug" and ragequit without gging one game.

Since then I have seen him constantly BM people in tourneys, and always blame his losses on "lag" etc. How do people like this even retain sponsorships ? He is a joke to the competitive community.

I think "taking away money" is pretty much the best way to enforce the players to follow the rules.

Terrible player with a terrible attitude. Remember him BMing Lucifron during a tournament after Lucifron won with early agression. He said that people like Lucifron are ruining the game yaddayadda and that he can't stay in a game when it gets longer than 5 minutes. After that Lucifron won in straight up macro games.

I remember a ZOTAC cup match he was going to get casted my GLHF.tv. Both GLHF streamers were in the lobby, and as the countdown started or just before he kicked one of the streamers. He must have noticed the other streamer was in the game still, because when the game started he wrote "suck pä dig" and left.

Then they should follow the rules, as guys like Hasu show it is possible.

EPS is going on for so many years now(started 2002 or something like that), it is one of the most stable and professional tournaments out there. You should really inform yourself :p This sc2-season is quite stupid, but WC3-EPS was extremely entertaining, especially due to enforced statements.

I like Naniwa, I dont get why you're all hating on him.

Anyway, this sucks... I think he could have won too, hes great from what I've seen of him.
Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.

it's not like there are a lot of esports companies outside of korea, in fact before now I had only heard of MLG (and it's also terrible). i wouldn't even call them an esport company, thats more of a buzzword to get support

the intel extreme thing sucked, it's only claim to fame was that it was one of the first SC2 tournaments

they don't save the money by taking it from players with penalty points. its split between the players who dont have any PPs at the end of the season as a bonus.

i can't say that im sorry for naniwa. even if its hard to do everything right for someone from foreign country to get no PPs, there were plenty of guys who could and even tried to help him with that (Miou, one of the EPS players, told so on a german community site).
i mean, MYM is sponsoring him, even paying him his stay in germany. if not for himself, he should at least feel responsible to pay them back with professionalism and good results.
he's a kid.

its not a way for the esl to save money.
the % of pricemoney that gets taken away from players due to pp is distributed evenly among the other eps players.
