Did their site crash? Maybe just me but not loading lol.. Epic news really.

I wonder who he will join. Seems like it would be a Korean team but it could be anyone i guess.

WAIT WHAT! I hope Naniwa joins a Korean team, or make a Sweden house in Korea.

I think CoL would be an intelligent guess considering the have the money to give him a decent contract and he's already at the MVP house I think?

I rather see Sjow go (not that I hate him, I think it's better for him to go to another team)

Mill.Naniwa !!

:p

More seriously, I don't see Dignitas leaving such a player behind, so I guess we can expect him in a 'better' team ... korean is a good posisbility.

Dignitas probably saw the patch notes for 1.4 and was like, "eh... protoss is still going to suck for a while, isn't it?"

Epic typo indeed. If even FXO is not contracting Naniwa, then it is probably either EG or colmvp.

Another slayers acquisition? They seem to have gotten a lot of promising players of late.

We have spoken to NaNiWa and we will not be recruiting him.

Given the financial requirements for a player such as Naniwa, the only korean team who 'may' purchase him would be coL.MvP, but it would be a big investment for them.

My guess would be another foreign team.


Hm, interesting. Looks like col.MvP has the most money out of any of the Korean teams if they're the only one who can sign Naniwa. I thought possibly Slayers as well with all their sponsors but guess not.

MvPNaniwa coming right up.

I'm certain that NaniWa will join a Korean team, he wants to train in Korea full time like Huk with a Korean team to be the best.

Can't say its surprising either, he hasn't really done anything significant recently and hasn't been competing in team leagues either.

I don't like him as a player, or his attitude, but I like his dedication to the game. If he wants to unleash his full potential he needs to stop being so negative when it comes to balance. I always see him complaining about how weak Protoss is to him.

We'll probably be seeing Nani on MVP, or possibly Startale.

I don't wanna pull the "Liquid`[newly_released_player]" meme, but if Naniwa wants to stay in Korea and if he doesn't want to join a Korean team I think Liquid really is the best deal for him. The oGs partnership practically shuts down the need to join an actual Korean team.

Wow, I have no idea why a team would let Naniwa go unless they are with financial problems.
