I doubt its going to be EG. They have a lot of money, but not infinite money. If nani joined they would be paying 4 high salaries, a handful of presumably decent salaries, and maintaining 2 houses, and that is just their SC2 division. I don't see that working out for them. I think it will probably be a Korean team or MAYBE mouz. The only other team that could really pay him what he should be asking for is complexity, but I think Dignitas is arguably a 'better' team than col.

Wow. Do some people really think Dignitas is dropping Naniwa because of his personality, or because Naniwa wants too much money? Naniwa wants to settle in Korea, and the best way to do that is to join a Korean team, or a team with a partnership (coL or Liquid).

If NaNiwa joins EG, I'm gonna be really really really REALLY mad. Hope he joins a Korean team instead. I feel the same way. It would just suck if he joined EG  Contradicting most of his previous statements about how he only cares about being the best.
LOL he would not be contradicing himself if he joins EG. puma huk idra nani in korean house on korean ladder.

Im sure he's joining the Korean team he said he's moving into a team house with. that's very exciting for him. Congrats
|
Hopefully this is because Naniwa is already set to join a Korean team not because he fcked up something... you know, AGAIN. He lives now at which house? IM?
|
I don't think naniwas main motivation is money, I think it's being the best in the world.
|
Nani is going to join a Korean team, calling it right now.
Actually, I wouldn't be surprised if Nani went to EG.
And whoever said Koreans won't take him because of his BM, where have you been for the past 6 months?

He's an exceptional player but that doesn't mean he's a good fit for TL.
people CHANGE, he was bm a long time ago when he was hitting a very rough patch in his life, he said in an interview that he was angry and depressed at life and took it out on his opponents and that he realized that that was the wrong thing to do and that he would behave properly now because of the chances he was given by both Empire and Dignitas

Look, the point I was trying to make was that TL would be the best deal for Naniwa in terms of practice conditions, however I don't think TL wants to pick him up. You don't need to break a sweat over your wishful thinking, I too would like to see Naniwa in Liquid the most but I just don't see it happen.

For the most part, he's just really really really passionate about winning. And he gets access to MC and HerO if he joins~ I imagine Nazgul looks for strong players with good personality. And Naniwa is just to volitile in terms of personality. As mentioned before i felt that naniwa fit in in Dignitas, its too bad really. I really don't think Nani is all that volatile as far as his public personality goes. Maybe he's nuts behind the scenes but that's impossible to say. I still don't think Liquid is looking to sign more players at the moment and that this whole conversation is kind of moot, but I don't think Nani's personality is particularly against Liquid's principles.
You are right, about liquid not wanting to pick up at this point... but to add to the argument maybe volatile is the wrong word, it comes down to team dynamic, and i feel that liquid wants a good one...

You really don't understand the point. The fact is he has a history that precedes him. You're crazy if you think TL would want to pick up an expensive player like Naniwa, when they just let a better player (who also isn't nearly as BM) go.
I could see him going to other teams but not TL.

Am I really the first one? ZENEXNani?

Team Reign? They have a team house on the way, and ign(?) backing I believe. Might be too big a salary for them though. Assuming he wants money similar to players of his calibre, that kind of limits his team options to the big guys with money. EG, FXO(already said no), TL(?), coL, fnatic, mouz, mill(?).
