I don't think Naniwa cares that much about the money if he would get an offer from a team like SlayerS or IM. I can understand if he wanted more money to join a team like FXO who isn't such a good team compared to some other teams out there.

I think in the long run him joining IM or SlayerS would make him the most money anyway, I mean he would have access to all the best players for practicing...so in theory after 1-2 months he would turn into sup beast megaman mode like Thorzain did and then Foreign teams would be offering him MUCH more.

All my personal opinion though o.o

What why -.-!? Dignitas gave Naniwa a chance when no one else would...

I guess they weren't giving him enough money and he wanted more...

The most obvious choice seems to be coL. They have money and he can train in the MVP house, where he is moving to anyway (or already is there).

At least it still looks nice.

Where he goes no doubt depends on the reason they mutually agreed to terminate the contract. If he doesn't care about money, then he basically could join any team there is. He's definitely in the top 10 as far as foreigners go; it's not like he isn't a desirable addition.

Oh no! Less people wearing my favorite jersey in esports.

It will be interesting to see where he ends up.

holy... didnt expect that.
So he a) wanted more money or b) stay in Korea with a team (and therefore has to join the team)?^^

Will be really interesting, who's gonna pick him up. But I'm sure it has to be a Korean team or a team with connections to Korea (so not mouz etc), cuz he stated that he wanted to stay there for as long as possible

Another one of these threads where everyone just lists random teams that he could go to, huh.

I dont think he will care too much about salary, my guess is Slayers or Liquid.

Wow, I wish the OP stated that that excerpt was the entire thing (I spent about 10 minutes F5ing the source >-<'' ). Whatever team Naniwa goes to, I'll still be cheering for him. A shame though, considering the success of Sjow and Select in Code A at the moment.

ST_Naniwa. I want to see him wear that star, actually...

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.


If liquid can't keep huk I highly doubt they can take on Naniwa. He's prob asking for similar deals as Huk.

Maybe that's true, and I don't wanna talk for him, but I don't think money is Naniwa's biggest concern, considering how he's always so focused on winning and winning alone. I think he wants to train in Korea in the best practicing conditions he can get, and that doesn't depend solely on the money he will earn.
