I NEVER saw this coming, this is an excellent pickup for complexity gaming! Hopefully Naniwa will help them post some more good results in coming tournaments!

There is a spelling error in the topic title. It should read "Fuck You, Stephano"

I am terribly sorry for naniwa, would have loved to see him in a real TOP team,


people need to really think before they post. naniwa IS on a top team in addition to practicing with a top korean team. i honestly don't see how it could get better for him

practicing with mvp is quite good, no doubt

but seeing "coL"(in the meaning of complexity's roster shown on their page) as top - sry man, maybe in the us - but from a worldwide perspective it is mediocre at best


lol, yes because SC2 is quite the team game. Complexity is a "TOP" team because they can not only afford to pay their players well, but they also have a practice house set up for them with other players of tremendous talent.

Seems like a really great pick. A korean practice house, with a foreigner salary and the opportunity to travel for events.

it was either gonna be complexity (cause of MVP house) or liquid (cause of oGs house)

foreign FXO is malasya based and not quite there yet (fOu aside), and Naniwa is obviously serious about Korea so i applaud him for his bravery and determination. i dont think money played huge role in this, naniwa is not huk, i think he would've went with sixjax if they had parners in korea lol

either way, props to naniwa for the sacrifice, may he reap the rewards very soon


He is the only guy I have heard express that, he doesnt like the "loose" training schedule of TL. No, man, I wonna sleep in bunk with 10 other guys in the room, and have strict forced 10-12 hours a day training.

Holy fuck, talk about dedication


hehe

yeah, he's kinda first foreigner in a while to say "fuck everything im staying in korea till i get insane good" and its kinda depressing (foreigner dedication that is). he made this decision purely because of korean training house (MVP) that coL will provide him to stay in, so i really dont understand people saying that coL is not his caliber and/or that cruncher and complexity guys will get better... no they wont, he's in korea, coL is not, so he might as well joined MVP, considering

this way he gets flown out to big tourneys and does korean training at the same time. its brilliant.

what does "...no longer fits into our team" even mean? In what way?

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

I'm guessing they wanted him to represent them at international tourneys, but he wanted to stay in Korea to train and become a better SC2 player, which would be much more difficult if he were jet-setting from this tourney to that and back again. This is purely speculation, but seems logical.

Absolutely.

Huge win for Naniwa and Complexity. Super glad for both of them

HOLY SHIT. Good luck to the both of them. I did not think that compLexity had this much money after the death of CGS. Nice to see that their status from the Counter-Strike days still lives.

Hmmmm not really. It was made public about a week ago that dignitas wouldn't be resigining him because he already stated that he wanted to leave. So they used those funds that would have been used to re-sign nani to sign Sase.
