As for him being the top foreigner toss - that's just your bias speaking. Abuse? Lol... He didn't just demand those invites. He WON them... It's part of his PRIZE - it's what happens when a player does well in a tournament, they get prizes. So who is the more deserving player, who would do so much better than Naniwa, even though Naniwa was the player who was highest non GSL player? How hard is it to "win" an invite when you're seeded in the pools and barely any other foreigners can/want to accept one? Naniwa could almost lose every game and still get one like SelecT who got his for finishing 18th. I'm fine with inviting foreigners that managed to achieve good results to Code A once in a while to counterweight the commitments they need to do to compete in Korea. But inviting the same people over and over again even if they keep failing is just abusive.
Yeah the Koreans really get the short end of the stick. Naniwa plays two Code-A games while the Koreans get free flights to the US to pick up, for them, easy prize money over a weekend. Poor them.
Select didn't get one for his finish at #18 btw

Yay! So happy for Naniwa. A huge team that not only can ship him to all important events, but also have connections in Korea to make sure he's able to get the best possible practice. For all I know Complexity pays their players well too. Hopefully this will motivate him and help him through the rough times he seems to be having.

Well, this was pretty expected. GRATTIS NANIWA!

Good luck to nani in korea.

This is great news. coL.MVP must be a great house to stay practice in.

unexpected... really hoped for smth better for Nani! ;(

Gratz to Naniwa. CoL probably has the money to keep Naniwa growing.
@Artosis, do we need to keep buying Naniwa support Tshirts?

Very cool, and a great pickup from Complexity.
|
grats to both sides, hope Naniwa will stay for a long time in the MVP house, and actualy stay there not half half like many others.
|
Complexity making some big moves in SC2...
I admit I'm surprised to see him leave Dignitas, which seemed like a pretty solid team.
|
Haha fits in perfect with that conspiracy theory. I wish Naniwa the best of luck with his new team and am hoping that complexity won't be screwed over by a third player.

HOLY SHIT! think this comes true!
Gratz Naniwa! He was never my favorit player, but he is very good and belongs to a good team. With the partnership to MVP, coL seems to be the best desicion.
|
Sweeeeet Naniwa! =) Kick alot of ass!
|
Dang, fast switch, haven't seen Naniwa in a while!
|
I honestly cannot believe that this happened. This is even a better pickup than Stephano would have been in my honest opinion, just for publicity and tournament consistency. Absolutely wonderful pickup - him and CatZ will for sure be developing some sick new zvp play, I can bet :p
