Thanks for translating! I feel the article was written in haste with a hot head but I was really bummed out too so I understand it. If it weren't for my habit of deleting 8/10 posts I write I probably might have come off as super pissed at first too, haha.

Glad the Koreans are taking this a lot more serious than the majority of the foreign fan-base seems to be.

The Koreans did the same/ worse things in BW foreign tournaments so them getting pissed about this seems quite ironic.

lol like what? ROFLSTOMPING through everyone and making them look like a fool? That's ok in my book.

Lol this is such an overreaction. Someone who was in the GOM studio even posted in the LR thread that they didn't care.

Also lost respect for the MVP team. When he was there they didn't even bother to play 1 serious game with Naniwa and now they blame him!?


I agree with what you said there,

I'd be really surprised if Naniwa gets to keep his code S spot after this.


Even if he doesn't lose it as punishment. He's 0-10 in the GSL overall. Chances are, he won't keep it for long anyway.

Seems like people have already forgotten the Nestea/MVP match fixing at Blizzcon. The 13k/6k/200 larva saved up by Nestea and he lets MVP get a pity win after his loss earlier that day. Double standard. Where was all the drama over that? Why dose the Korean scene love the illusion of competition?


Excuse me, that was not a match-fix. Nestea was maxed out but running into tanks and PFs line would kill him without doing anything that if Nestea did attack, he would be counter attacked. Since then Nestea said he does not like Shakuras Plataue. Please don't bring any other shit about other players.

I'm sorry but who the hell cares..
I was watching the whole tournament bought a ticket and everything but I still turned off the stream when Nani vs Nestea started, why watch a game that carries no weight at all.

Thus I can completely understand why Nani wouldn't want to play a game that meant nothing.

So much drama over nothing, get a grip people!

Guys how can you defend him AGAIN. I mean this guy proved many times he's a joke, all this drama and hate toward him iw what he deserves, i hope GomTv will disqualify him from every competitions made by them and eject him out of Korea, he's the shame of the foreigner players.

Thanks for the super fast translation, would be cool if you could trans some of the comments? I wonder if the Korean netizens share the same feelings.

Something ridiculous happened. This may sound very emotional but Naniwa does not have qualifications to be a pro gamer.

On 13th December, one participant of Blizzcup, Naniwa, made everyone upset at the studio. Some staff members were not only panicked but outraged about what Naniwa did. In the 9th game where Naniwa was facing Nestea, Naniwa pulled all his probes and attacked Nestea's base then lost then called out GG.

huh? from what what i know, the production team didnt care,implied by torch's gf

Let's just see how this plays out, I am for that Naniwa should be punished in some way but not banned or kicked from the team, just some way that steers Naniwa on a better path without ruining his career wholly.

I am not really a fan of Naniwa and certainly not of this behavior but I am for leniency and understanding if it was just a emotional overload and not a evil thought behind it.

It can't be easy when everyone is against you.

Same here. Sure, it's not exactly the most professional thing to do but the game didn't matter anyway so I really can't get upset about what happened in it.

So stupid how much drama there is in him just throwing away a game. Go and watch State of the game ep 24 i think it was when Nony (liquid`Tyler) said that sc2 is a game stop being so serious .


That's what the foreign scene thinks. In Korea, this is a sport to them, and this stuff is taken seriously as messing around.


Then make rules so things like this dont happen , So like if there was a rule to not be allowed to throw away games like that , naniwa would of played that game normally

I Disagree. Nestea broke MVPS defense, and at this point still had the 13k/6k/200+ larva and just plain turned around without streaming in endless units. He then let himself get nuked over and over. The entire community seemed to disagree with your analysis of the game on that day. Anyways, I had no intention of discussing that game. I thought it was very obvious what happened there to everyone, I guess not.

Holy shit people, can't you actually look at this whole thing outside of your own culture?! When you're in a foreign country with completely different culture, you behave yourself accordingly. I completely understand the reactions by the Korean fans/press/players/staff.

I hope he gets banned from GSL and MLG, as these are the only events I watch and he ruined both of them for me, by being so bm,

I was about to say the same thing as well. Seltzer said the production did not care. Someone from GOM posted in the forums it was not a big deal. This seems to be made up by the articles writer.
