Naniwa strikes me as a player, even unlike IdrA, that has a totally callous attitude towards the community as a whole, and I could see such an attitude leaking into his interactions with other players/management and his own team. I highly doubt a team like EG or Liquid would pick him up for these reasons alone, and if I had to guess if he doesn't sign with a team like coL or Fnatic, he will likely go teamless for a short period of time before being picked up by another European team (maybe mouz or mym.)

I have tremendous respect for Naniwa as a player, but he just doesn't seem to care about much of anything besides winning tournaments. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that, but it will certainly effect his surroundings and future opportunities. Best of luck to him either way.

Naniwa always felt synonymous with Dignitas, gonna feel wierd calling him under a different team's tag.

Hopefully he goes to a KR team to get the practice he wants though, gonna miss Dignitas' killer lineup of Nani Select Sjow

Woah, this makes the situation with SaSe really awesome !


What do you mean?


with HuK signing a big deal and Naniwa not far behind, it makes Sase's future deal that much bigger.

Ah... The thing is that i believe in Sase has well but ......he is yet to show good results


he wont make HuK/Naniwa money, but if he were to make 15k a year before this, he may make 20k now.

If he is picked up by EG that would just be too funny due to his rivalry w/ HuK xD

Wonder if thorzain maybe put in a good word for him in the slayers house. The teams im thinking of are definitely Slayers, IM or coL.MVP. He said he didn't like the way ST was ran. I just really hope it isn't EG.

If he joins SlayerS he will never play Protoss again, lol.

Man, I'm already feeling bad for SlayerSNani.

Good luck to both Naniwa and Dignitas.

Dignitas certainly has a wealth of great players, Sjow's a brilliant tactician and SeleCT has insane control. They will certainly be one of the strongest foreigner lineups.

Naniwa has the heart and resolve of a champion. Hopefully he finds a team that best suits his goals/methods.

Will be looking forward for news about both in the future.

Didn't see that coming really, Naniwa seemed to fit well in Dignitas.

Could be that he might join a Korean team?

Sad news, I thought Naniwa had finally fit in with Dignitas. Oh well, good luck to him and lucky is the next team who picks him up (*cough* IM *cough*)

I don't think this about the money at all. Naniwa has said over and over again that only thing he cares about is becoming the best, and to become that he needs best practice possible. I can see him going to TL, FXO, maybe EG with the future EG-korea house or join korean team.

I hope he is joining a korean team cause leaving Dignitas (arguably one of the best non kr) wouldn't really make sense if it wasn't for a way to support his stay at South Korea.

I don't see him joining any korean team except coL.mvp simply because they wouldn't provide him with a salary. Fxoboss said that only few people actually get paid.
