Please make sure to read the statement from Naniwa that is linked in the full article before commenting. |
Well on one hand, I have to say that after everything I've seen/read recently, I'm even more glad that the Complexity's plan of building a superteam overnight failed hard.
Nani obviously isn't easy to work with, but he's a champion and he doesn't need to be easy. Complexity decided to pick him up even though they really had no personal relationship and connections with him beforehand, and they KNEW his personality before they picked him up. They didn't care much about "core Complexity values" then, they just wanted top players so they can compete with EG or whatever.
This is why I'm pretty convinced that Nani left because Nani chose to leave, not because of anything Complexity PR says. It's not surprising they would spin it like that given that they had to deal with the 2 top tier players rejecting them in a short period of time.
Although Quantic seems like another team of the same breed from what I can see.

Using anonymous sources in the news is pretty common

Edit: We're talking like NYTimes, CNN type of common. I think some of you guys are just interested in killing the messenger.
Edit 2: The fact that ESFI is pissing people off with its coverage is actually a good sign. They have to be comfortable releasing stories that they know people won't like.

I don't understand how Complexity has such a weak team overall. I guess you could say they are strong if you include the partnership, since they gain players like DRG. However, prior to SC2, you could think of coL being an EG rival in most if not all competitive games. I'll never forget coL vs EG CS, yet coL's non korean partnership roster is basically what? catz? He's a popular player and gets attention I suppose, almost like a destiny but he's never shown any tournament success to note. Drewbie? He's performed 'OK' at some MLG's but nothing that stands out. Cruncher? I know he's inactive but his claim to fame is a ' ' and win against IdrA. I suppose trimaster is an exciting up and comer but I'm really kind of diasapointed with complexity's overall lineup. As a fan of esports since the days of CPL and shitty online leagues that you play for nothing but pride (tfl/sta/igl) who recognizes these big teams and has followed them for a decade, they are kind of a let down.

Did you even read the wiki you linked? Anonymous sourcing has rarely ended well for journalism and it's practice is in steep decline. Also, when it's reputably used it needs to be corroborated with a second source. ESFI did not corroborate with a second source here.
They just let someone sling some mud at a player.

Since Naniwa was in Korea for most of the time they can't have much contact except maybe skype and so forth. So the team relation wasn't really there to start with so I honestly doubt it had to do something with Naniwa's behaviour. And even then they knew pretty much exactly what they were getting into if they had done any homework on Naniwa.

Everything I'm seeing on reddit and esfi world is making me pretty depressed. Everything i've seen from esfi world seems like pure drama mongering. The guy that was interviewed on fuck slasher was saying random, unfounded, and incredibly unspecific shit that sounded like it was made up on the spot. It was ridiculous and apparently everyone is taking it seriously.
I haven't seen a single quote or piece of information that is specific and has an actual source except for the quotes from the teams and naniwa that don't say anything negative. There hasn't been an ounce of actual content added to this discussion from the "reporters". It's just random opinions of uninvolved people and subjective "quotes" that aren't actually sourced to anyone involved.
This is worse than TMZ.
Edit: The guy below me gets it.

The last line is the only part of it that is slander.. Saying someone needs mental help.
The rest to be honest a lot of people are thinking it, but no one is saying it.
Naniwa is a great person as a friend. But he is very difficult to deal with.

You conveniently ignored the main point of those critizing the anonymous quote, which is that the "source" was not a source of information but rather just someone giving their personal opinion. It's not at all standard practice in journalism to let people vent their opinions anonymously when no valuable information is divulged.
|
Am I really the only one that thought it was Artosis that said it (damn, I read it with his voice LOL)? When he talked about players being dicks to casters, I thought he was talking about NaNiwa.
He is a third part not affiliated with any of those companies - and he's pretty vocal about players being bad mannered. He's also very protective about his image - thus justifying the anonymity.
|
I sometimes feel Naniwa is a bit understood. I'm a massive fan.
“ I was not a good fit in Complexity because I was all alone in Korea, and they had no plans to send any more of their players here for a long time. I may come off as a cold person in interviews and with the way I act in general, but I get lonely quite easily. Living with other people who speak English and being around StarTale (who embraced me with open arms when I first came to Korea) is an exciting prospect for me. If my time within Quantic goes as well as I think it will, then you can bet I won’t be moving teams again. Thanks to all my fans! Continue to support me in the future please!”
I can relate to him.

I have just openly stated what the source has said, and confirmed it. Does that mean that there is now valuable information divulged?
I wouldnt doubt that the source is someone who is reliable and respectable...... I know ESFI well enough that they wouldnt publish such a comment without the source meaning something.
Its 1:20 am.. Nothing was done with convenience in my post. The fact remains that even if the source is anonymous, and you choose to believe what they say or not (minus the mental help crap), the subject at large has a proven history of being difficult to deal with.
I respect Naniwa as a person, but if this witch hunting jargon continues to go on e-sports is going to look like trash.
Naniwa is a professional player, his contract was bought by an organisation. The reason behind his sale is because complexity had an issue, and it was dealt with.
Naniwa's career is still in tact, he has the ability to prove the negative comments wrong in the future. WE should be focusing on that. Rather than turning this into a media 90210.
This goes hand in hand with a question news strait times asked me this morning. "Why should the mainstream media get involved in e-sports"... If they publish 1 thing and you dont agree with it, do you think they will stick around to accept this type of witch hunting crap. The subject at hand has been completely ignored and this topic is no longer about Naniwa, its about ESFI. Albeit great for ESFI traffic, its not an over all good result for the industry that many, including myself, are trying to grow.
|
I mean almost anyone who watches Starcraft 2 knows enough about Nani's personality to know that he can be difficult. So that fact alone is not news to anyone.
However, having this anonymous source phrasing his opinion of Naniwa like that (including the professional help thing) and then putting that in an article is horrible journalism, and the intent to cause additional damage to Nani's image is blatantly obvious.

It's more about proportionality and significance, and has been mentioned by many more level headed contributors within this thread -let aside the usual pitchfork folks. Does the matter really warrant a public platform for a personal attack?
Personal insults, unneeded stabs is what gawker and fox media successfully do- as tabloids. I have experienced more conservative articles from ESFI and would be glad if they stick to their guns

See, from my point of view- and the same of other reasonable critics- that is exactly the part that should have been left out. No big deal. If all they wrote was "Naniwa is tough to deal with", that takes no genius to realize.

Wrong! Obviously it's between NaNiwa and "Anonymous source".
However i reserve the right for me to choose wich sites i wish to support, and I base my decision on what content they make. And seeing as they are just as good as any gossip journal, I don't really find anything they produce interesting, since it's not genuine anyway.
EDIT: FXOpen going into this argument totally biased really helpes. Lost all high thoughts of FXO... What the hell do you know about Naniwa? See him much? Talk to him alot?
Holy shit, have some dignity, this is pathetic... Hitting on someone who's obviously already lying down...

At first I thought he was talking about nani too, but I didn't remember any games of nani starting really fast and apparently artosis was talking about huk for the most part

Well if it's slander then it really shouldn't be in the article in the first place... if it's legit then it should be checked into carefully and not conjoined with statements about how he is a pain to deal with. The anonymity is not really the issue as much as the validity of the statement itself.
