Doesnt Nani get Code S after MLG or did i miss something? I haven't been the biggest Naniwa fan, but I love Quantic and they are starting to looks really great! | ||

Best of luck to Nani on his new team. Col is so stacked it's likely some of their acquisitions were intended to be speculations for the short term. | ||

The team organization can put whatever they want in the contract, as long as the player signs to get that money/free paid trips they have to follow the agreement. You're the type of person that hears sixjaxMajor getting sent to multiple trips, then thinks its no big deal when he doesn't even wear the team's t-shirt. There's North American managers right now that work real jobs, send players to events with out of pocket money, and all they expect in return is some exposure with a t-shirt. If the player gives them shit, okay lol see yeah later... The only difference here is that Naniwa is a top 20-30 player in the world. Do you want your number 1 player in the finals of a tournament watched by 100k people calling the tournament a joke? Think about it, however no offense, I just don't think you get it with your opinion on the matter. No offense, I have thought about it, that is why I posted. Just because I don't see the team as all-important as you do doesn't mean I haven thought about it. The team only 'cares' because they expect 'their' player to get good RESULTS and thus exposure for their 'team' and 'sponsors'. The players are human beings/individuals. Teams need to accommodate this, a team manager getting on a high-horse and ignorning individual player personalities to me is childish. Players win tournaments not teams, teams HELP players GET TO events not win them. PLayers are the real bosses, whether a team wants to acknowledge that or not. | ||

That's your misunderstanding, there's no reason why they can't have more than one player in Korea. At no point does anyone anywhere suggest that they wished to sell Naniwa's contract so that TriMaster could go to Korea. I don't know where you're pulling that from. A lot of people seem to be pulling shit out of thin air in this thread. | ||

As for the reasons why, well... even without hands-on experience I'm still pretty sure every announcement such as this is sugar coated, and of course we don't have the whole truth. It doesn't however have to be something as bad as Naniwa being impossible to work with. I think Nani's reasons seem pretty reasonable, so maybe it's not a lot more than that? From what SaSe has said QxG really caters to what their players need, and my gut feeling is that this move is great for Naniwa's career. | ||

The IM coach isn't that BM  Cant tell if your being sarcastic but the words he used when speaking about Naniwa after the whole MLG incident would most likely get me banned from TL if i were to repeat some of them =p (assuming the translation was accurate) | ||

"an anonymous staffer at the white house..." etc. I think ESFI should at least publish the source's organization, or at the very least make clear how the source is credible in the matter, ie how has the source interacted with naniwa in the past? It's like reading "An anonymous source tells us X is an idiot" in some article. If that's all the source says I would tell my source I need something with substance since an anonymous opinion that "X is an idiot" is unfortunately not something I will publish. | ||

Naniwa might be awkward in public, but he has done NOTHING that would disgrace Complexity. You try living in a small space filled with people you cannot comunicate with. Its not hard for me to understand why the move to live and practice with Sase and Destiny and Startale, who he apparantly has a good relationship with, is better for him. Its motivating to be with friends. Pretty simple? I would move to practice with Destiny in an instant ffs. How awesome is that? | ||
