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.


?? lol he's not talking down on it, he's just telling the absolute truth, which is that korean scene/ladder/etc is miles better than europe, which I'm pretty sure is a common knowledge fact

Naniwa has been extremely manner and mature for quite some time now, no need to be a hater. Also as for this situation, my best guess would be that naniwa wanted to stay in korea permanently for the foreseeable future, and dignitas wasn't willing to pay for him to do that while still paying him to fly around to foreign tournaments, which the team would obviously want.

Conflict of interest I guess, and I wouldn't be surprised at all (in fact, I would be surprised if it didn't happen) if naniwa got picked up by a korean team or a foreign team with a korean partnership (FXO Liquid or coL) to get his wish of staying in korea.

Didn't EG say they had more announcements to make when they aquired HuK? This might be one of them, NaNi withh get to stay in Korea and go to foreign tournaments and the EG announcement would've been made like a month ago.

Irrelevant. He isn't going MLG because he is in Code A, just like Select and Sjow who funnily enough are also Dignitas players.

This is really surprising news... one of my favorite European players by far.

Logic points to Team coL or a Korean team.

Fanvote goes to: Liquid`NaNiWeR

Wildcard: TT.Naniwa or Grubby.Naniwa

GL TO NANIWA!

coL.MVP is the only move that makes sense. They've got the cash, the opportunity and the motive. The perfect crime signing the perfect criminal.

Does it seriously determine whether or not you like someone based on what team they're on? Players are players, and they always will be. Huk is still Huk, Sheth is still Sheth. Quit whining about EG.

EG will throw him money.
Three things can happen when you throw the ball, and only one of them is good.

Or Inside the game.

IF EG is involved, they will be doing some kind of statement on that show


I honestly have never watched that show... Is it better than SotG?


nope but still good

My money is on "SlayerS`Naniwa"

But possibly Incredible Miracle might have an interest too.
