Based on InC analysis of the situation hes probably not going to EG. So we know that EG and FXO are not options. IMO i dont think a korean team is an option either since they cant provide him a salary or the ability to travel.

I didn't read every post, but I'm really surprised that nobody mentioned Fnatic.

I could see Fnatic looking toward a Team House in Korea, especially with their Korean "B-Team" and NaNiWa could stay there as well.

Naniwa was already in fnatic but was kicked due to disputes. So it is highly unlikely they would recruit him again.

Judging from the Code A match that Naniwa played today, the MVP coach was there to coach him. Suggesting he is at least taking an interest and helping Naniwa (Naniwa also plays with them).
I can no longer rest under the tree of wisdom, since you have axed down the roots feeding it.

Just thinking... isn't Socke without a team right now?

Could quite easily be the new Dignitas signing.

Dignitas stated on their twitter that they're not announcing a sc2 player.

Great move on Dignitas. Decide to not sign their only player whose put out any results. Maybe they will make xeris captain next.

Unless, you know, Nani was the one who made the decision or Dignitas didn't have the money.

Plus, Nani is not the only Dignitas player with results. Come on.


The only mentionable players in Dignitas next to Nani are Select and Sjow and Nani's results pretty much run theirs through the dirt.


SeleCT and Sjow are mentionable?

Hahahaha Good one bro.


Uhhh Select is definitely on par with Naniwa in terms of performance/achievements. Not to mention Select actually made it to Code A Ro 16?


Sorry if I was unclear : I agree 100% with you.
They are MORE than mentionable.
Not to say Sjow was the most cash winning player in europe only couple months ago.


he actualy has like the most winning in sc2 out of every foreigner or maybe he's second

Maybe they did talk and quickly found that they wouldn't be able to offer a contract that would meet Naniwa's desires so there was no point in offering him one? He seems to be set on staying in Korea for a long time and maybe Dignitas couldn't offer an appropriate solution. This is purely speculations on my part but I can think of multiple scenarious where Naniwa finding a new team would be better for both parties.

Truth is Naniwa likely have a higher value than most of the top Korean players. Why? Because SC2 just isn't that large over in Korea compared to the west as of now, and Naniwa is probably top 5 when it comes exposure & marketing opportunities. I'd say the player which can demand the highest salary at the moment is probably Idra. His stream have more viewers than some of the competitions, and he's always in the spotlight getting interviewed no matter what. That's the stuff that matters to the people which actually provides the $$$. Therefor I can definitively see Korean teams picking him up & sending him to DH/MLG etc, simply because associating the team name with Naniwa in the west has a higher value than for example sending a better Korean player over.

Socke still plays for alternate and I don't think he's going to switch teams, maybe you meant SaSe he's atm teamless.
