Wow this is a major acquisition for complexity gaming. It is also slightly curious that Dignitas asserted that "Naniwa no longer fit into the team" or whatever the exact wording was. Dignitas picked up Naniwa during his rebellious phase, and they allowed him to mature into a very strong gamer and individual. We have seen this effect in Naniwa's maturation, who is now one of the top competitors in the european scene. I just think that this was a bad move on Dignitas' part because they invested so much into Naniwa when he was a "risky" asset because of his attitude. And then complexity just comes in and sweeps him up now that he is a strong player and he no longer has that "risky" stigma associated with him. Seems like a bad time to drop a major investment on Dignitas' part. Interesting.

Regardless, congratulations to Naniwa and complexity, I am eagerly awaiting some good things out of them.

I just wish that Naniwa had done better in Code A recently

Agree with this.
But perhaps it was time to renew his contract, and now he's worth a much better contract than one year ago, which Dignitas didn't want to pay for ? (just speculation)
Anyway, I really would like to know the rationale of not keeping Nani for dignitas, looks like a mistake. (or perhaps there was a bidding war between dignitas and col)

if you happen to like average players, then ya, i can see why you would like this team. truth be told, 95% of this roster has won ZERO significant events. they are only popular due to their streaming accessibility and not talent.

Best of luck to Naniwa in his new team, however I will always remember him in the Dignitas Jersey .

Great to see complexity doing so well, and that's terrific for Naniwa. I'm loving Complexity more and more as time goes on.
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

I guess this is true. He wanted more money, but Dignitas' offer was not good enough.
So he went to coL.
Still like Naniwa

What he surely wanted to say is that from the list of those players only DRG and Naniwa are actually good (as even you confirm it by listing the accomplishments of only these two players). The rest are mediocre players.
