when you can't afford to pay a player, which I'm assuming that naniwa wants the big $, then its not really a decision you can debate.
I'm a gooner.

You know it might have been Naniwa's choice or a mutual one? Maybe they couldn't afford to keep him in Korea for as long as he wanted (just an example).

I'm curious, what do you mean by this? Naniwa appeared to act in a mature fashion in all the interviews I've seen..


That depends on your point of view. For example, I for one don't like it when a player consistently talks down on the European scene from which he originates.

But it's true? I'm pretty sure most progamers would agree that the korean ladder is the hardest ladder.


There's a difference between saying "The korean ladder is the best ladder" and saying "I haven't learned anything from Europeans in a long time, because they suck".

AFAIK, NaNiwa insulted the European scene during a HomeStoryCup 3 interview because he Koreans were dominating Europeans left and right during the period. NaNiwa said something along the lines of "There isn't anymore I can learn from the Europeans" and stated he had plans on going to Korea.

"We agreed" implies it was mutual. It was probably too expensive to send everyone between Korea and NA and Dreamhack so often.

Regardless, Naniwa probably doesn't give a damn when it comes to salary. A team that can send him overseas and provides him good practise is all he would care about.

Sad for Dignitas. I definitely see Nani joining a Korean team.

Saw this coming because Sjow and Select weren't with him in Korea and he's an ambitious fellow. Hope to see some Korea team be clever and pick him up, he's one of the top 3 foreigners probably, def top 5.

Another drama...

Blizz will have to put some kind of player transfer tool on bnet 2.0, cos it's more popular than the actual game.

for everyone saying EG...

they havent made an announcement to announce the forewarned announcement. If they do make a announcement of an announcement, they will have to announce their intention to do so.

I guess when he said that he couldn't learn from the EU anymore, the truth hurts sometimes.

Naniwa and Sase have no teams... I can see where this one is going.
If you never try you never know. Sase - Mana - TLO - WhiteRa - Naniwa - Sheth - HuK

They agreed to not extend it. They didnt drop him so its probably him asking for them to let him go.
Although I'm sad that this happened to dignitas who supported him so long ago, I take solace in that they have other amazing players like Sjow and Select, as well as up and coming players like Merz.
