If you remember, that's exactly how Idra gained his popularity. People just forget things like that when something new happens. Lol.

There's no source that says Naniwa knew this would be considered massively disrespectful to koreans and did it anyways, yet many people are working under that assumption. so basically you put words into GOM's mouth when you don't know if they actually said anything 100%?

Yeah and starcraft is a game and only the result counts, so culture does not play a role in here. There is no rule that prohibits performing strategies with low win percentages, so your argument is invalid. | ||

Like saying he knew it would be disrespectful, which was pulled 100 percent out of their ass based on what they thought, just like I did. That's all anyone is doing here. | ||

Why not just play another match of the game you love against an opponent that people think very highly of and just try to make a good game out of it? Instead Naniwa was very childish (as he has tended to show in the past) and now this has exploded in his face. He didn't overreact, he wanted it over with quickly, worker rushed, and then moved on. Overreacting would of been one of those bitch fits he normally pulls. He didnt' think it was a big deal, it just so happens he was wrong. | ||

Yea.. sure they paid money.. but they got to see other games.. so if one game doesnt meet their expectations.. why get so upset.. i rly think those ppl are the ones that are being childish | ||

A progame team pays a player in exchange for him working to improve their image, through result or otherwise. Seeing as Quantic Gaming were hyping the match up minutes before game start, and having the match ending this way, you can't really say that they didnt take a hit in the face. I feel that many people are underestimating what being a "professional" means. Maybe a good look at the SC:BW scene would help you see things better. | ||

Professional sports teams still play games after they know they aren't going to make the playoffs. Why not just man up and play the game when you know there's going to be this big of a backlash if you don't? | ||

I lost a lot of respect for MVP and Choya for their tweets as well. Nanis decision was plain stupid but these reactions are even worse. You're kidding, right? They're spending a huge amount of time, money, and effort to make the GSL as professional as possible and Naniwa basically spit in their face and you're disappointed in THEM? That's ridiculous. And for everyone saying "there was no rule against this!" Are you guys serious? There shouldn't HAVE to be a rule against something like this, you should be able to use your brain and figure out that it's a terrible idea. On December 14 2011 03:00 dsousa wrote: I LOL'd at the "Naniwa does not have qualifications to be a pro gamer". Naniwa must scare the crap out of Korean society, they are weak to BM. The reaction he provoked is priceless. No, he doesn't scare them in the slightest. He probably disgusts them like he disgusts half of the foreign community. There is a difference between BM (Idra, FBH, etc. that all have a good number of Korean fans) and just being a prick. | ||
