Why would EG even recruit a Protoss player lol?

I was so bummed the dignitas hoodies were sold out in my size, and I now realize Naniwa was pretty much the reason I wanted one anyway.

GL to dignitas and Naniwa, can't wait to see awesome things out of both.

I hope he gets in with a Korean team, but before long it'll be him that's whipping Korean toss into shape.

I love EG, but if they picked up Naniwa it would feel like they had more than their fair share of the strong players outside of Korean teams. coL/MVP seems intuitive, IM would make his PvZ unstoppable...+ Show Spoiler +
not that it matters in the GSL

EG probably exhausted its new players budget on HuK. If not, I would be really surprised.

EG not gonna have no house they been saying they gonna have a teamhouse in Korea since the start of SCII and instead they invest on one in America.

If Naniwa is smart, he'll go to coL instead of EG. In EG he'll have to do commentary, visit all the shows do many more interviews and just be a market puppy in coL I think he can focus on becoming the best player which is what he seems to want. MVP house helps.



FXOBoss already stated that they won't be signing Naniwa. And EG will have a house in Korea, the 1st three players there will be Idra, Huk and Puma I believe.

I imagine the whole MVP house will be a far better for practice than Huk, Puma and temporarily Idra. I also can't see Idra and Naniwa getting along too well, but who knows.

They all practice with each other regardless of what team they are on or where they stay. The main difference between people in your house is who you get to talk to for advice in person. It would be a lot easier for naniwa if he were with HuK because they both speak english for example, and therefore would get a lot out of working together.

Colmvp makes the most sense but I really think he should go to startale to become their star Protoss user.
If a foreigner can win in Korea it's Naniwa

Good Luck to Naniwa. Though I think he will be fine wherever he goes.

Would be funny for col to just dump the whole Stephano mess and pick up Naniwa instead... in fact it may even be preferable.

What's your living situation at the moment? You had been staying at the Startale house for a while...

I've been staying in GomTV house for about a week now, but I'm going to the MVP team house when I come back from Valencia


Hmmmm....So he really might be going to coL.

The message was so strong simple and in your face with 0 emotion..this makes me feel like Dignitas couldn't be happier to kick out Naniwa... To me the message sounded like "Contract expired..he's out..glhfgg bro we don't need ya, waste of money" No remorse no tears...no nothing. They were practically waiting for his contract to be finished so they can get rid of him.

Anyway...i see him as a bad investment also. He has been some time in Korea now...and yet...in every tournament i see him go out in first round...so..were does the money go? chicken wings?
U MAD BRO?
