is this the kind of sensationalism that we can expect from "up close gamers". id be insulted if i were teamliquid to have this TMZ style header when the actual comment was far far far less nefarious

wtf is nefarious about the title? It's a quote and it's an interesting one, that's what you generally put before interviews, if you want people to listen to them.


no i didnt say the title was i said that what naniwa said wasnt

please read.... its a shame to post shock value title to get hits really it is


I'm guessing you never watch any news? Everyone does it. There is no point not writing a sensationalist title if the only thing its going to do is bring a couple of extra people to watch it. Not very many people care about it, because it isn't an issue.

Yup, everyone does it and its crap. I wish people would be confident enough in their content to present it without resorting to such low level tactics. Wishful thinking.

wow that quote was misleading. Really makes naniwa seem like a douche. It makes the reader go in thinking negatively towards him. *rolls eyes* This is what esports journalism is going to be? I hate this type of journalism.

It said on the side "Naniwa tells nestea to r"

and I was really hoping that final word was going to be "retire"

eSports journalism isn't really a set-in-stone thing yet. Most people outside of TL Staff (which I wouldn't consider freelance) are still dabbling in writing about eSports. If you provide OP with constructive criticism instead of rolling your e-eyes at him and telling him you hate his piece, he can take it and come back with a better model for future journalism.

What's the big deal with the thread title? People get so upset over such trivial things. What's it like to live life so stressed out and upset over every little thing all the time? It's for entertainment.. calm down.

I can't believe Nestea is making the excuse that a pause screwed up his build in a game vs. Nani. It seems like that is the first Nani heard of that and his expression is priceless. I really do wonder what he was thinking at that moment.

Yea, if the title worries people so much, take Naniwa's advice and... relax.

I'm sure it was something along the lines of "Yeah sure, that's why you lost lol"

For the record Nestea is known for coming up with this kind of post-game explanations after a loss. You can remember him blaming his loss in non-gsl korean tournaments over the quality of the computer on which he had to play. Now the question is wether the script is made up by himself or by his coach (that we know for being very active on twitter for this kind of matters).

I like the ongoing Naniwa-NesTea rivalry, but if Nestea just stomps him tomorrow he's going to look foolish.


I'm hoping for this

honestly who does naniwa think he is? he's won a MLG event (and a very easy one at that) nestea has won THREE GSL championships, just because nani beat nestea at MLG providence doesn't mean he is on the same level as nestea

as much as I understand why he's shittalking nestea, other than his recent performance, he's next to nothing compared to nestea

Who is shittalking? He already cleared everything up with him and both players are cool with one and other.
As for the top portion of your comment, it is your opinion that nani is not on the same level of nestea. If we take recent results nani is 4-2 against nestea from the invitational and mlg providence, where both players had to fly out from korea to america.
the thing to consider is, a player's level isn't constant. fruitdealer won a GSL as well, does that make him better than the players that haven't? no not really, nestea's prime level could be better than naniwa's prime but we're talking about current levels here.
just wait till tonight.


nestea really went into detail on the mlg incident/why he wanted to play naniwa. pretty clear from his tone/facial expression that he's not cool with it at all
