Complexity making some big moves in SC2...

I admit I'm surprised to see him leave Dignitas, which seemed like a pretty solid team.

Dignitas didn't want to resign him according to Jason Bass on Live on Three

Solid pickup by Complexity! The dude needs to work on his PvZ though..

They mean that Naniwa's attitude was very bad and was not good for the image of the team overall. Atleast that was hinted in yesterday's Live On Three.

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

I think it is more him and DRG that could develop the sick zvp play.

Wow, CoL keeps improving!
They have the capital to make a super awesome team, I just feel that they are over-filled. They should clean house and keep the stars, as those seem to be a wiser investement

Uhm, Naniwa's attitude (at least outward) is a thousand times better than when Dignitas signed him in the first place. I'm sure there are reasons we don't know about but I'm pretty sure the "not good for the teams image" is bullshit.

Meh, so disappointing.

coL taking up EG's "buy everything" approach, and Nani not opting for a Korean team. -_-

There have been a lot of rumblings about Naniwa being difficult to handle for Dignitas. This was brought up on the most SotG and with Dignitas not wanting to resign him, it makes sense. Yes Naniwa is much better than he was a year ago, but it seems like he still has some work to do. Hopefully now that he is in Korea like he wants to be, he will be much easier for Complexity to manage.

Ummm coL has a lot of undeveloped talent. Sure they pursue big names, but every big team does. I don't get why people don't like when teams try to sign the best players. Should they let their rivals just do it with ease? No. You sign who you can to make your team as best as it can be.

And also, for Naniwa, this is better than signing with just a Korean team. Not only does he have complete access to a Korean team house due to the coL-MVP partnership, but he also will have full support in getting to foreign tournaments, something that would be less likely if he were on a Korean team.
