Its more than likely that its for some emberassing reason.

All i get from this is that "only real men macro and doing anything besides that makes you a little girl or a kid and it's embarassing to everyone you've ever met". Really that almost 100% sums up your view point. Clearly you dont know how to read then. Where did i say anything about a macro game, he could have cannon rushed for as much as i cared. IT doesnt make him look like a little girl because he probe rushed, it makes him look like a little girl because after talking shit to nestea at the press conference and saying how he already beat him twice and it shouldnt be a problem he gets scared after losing his first 3 games and throws the game because he knows how emberasssing it would be to lose to nestea after talking all that crap and telling nestea to relax.

Don't hide in your vagina and cry cause you had poor games. Think of other people other than yourself for a second. PPL wanted to see nestea vs naniwa. not that rubbish. Just wondering if u saw his other games? Wow, lashing out on naniwa like that :O Maybe u don't know this, but naniwa plays to win tournaments, not for money or fans. He isn't there to please you or me. Some find that bad (like urself) and others find that refreshing (me). The game wouldn't have been "real", it would have been kinda half assed from both players (they aren't gonna fish out their new BO's/Strats etc.) Nani apologised for his behaviour, and I think that's the end of it. As if others never ragequit, GG or play some weird strat cos they don't care (And if u ladder sir, I'm sure u know what I am talking about).
Clean ur mouth with soap!

I get where he's coming at, I would probably do it myself as well if I was in his position.
Grow big or go home (or however you say it).

I find it interesting that the entirely of the korean scene does not appear to approve of what Naniwa did while the foreign scene seem to be split. While not outright condoning it, Tyler, Idra and Morrow ( that's all I've seen so far) seem to be of the same mind regarding not making players play pointless matches. There also seems to be a general consensus on the forums that even if they did play neither of them was going to give the epic game we were waiting for ( I still want that game so bad) because they would want to hide their strategies for a match that really mattered. That this has happened before ( with varying degrees of subtlety according to tyler ) with other players and some specific examples given ( which garnered far less outrage ) tells me this is as much about Naniwa as it is about the the principle of the issue.
I'm personally not sure how I feel about the whole situation right now but I will admit that if he'd just gone lol 4gate or canon rush I'd have been fine with that. I think I'm trying to come to terms with the minumum effort required for a match to not be a total waste of time for everyone involved.

Chin up Naniwa. You played great those other 3 games. Sadly people are focusing on the one game which didn't matter one bit. So true. Go naniwa :D
Word Keep fighting nani! Don't listen to the haters

Go Big or Go Home. It has the intention of being 100% committed (being big) or not even try at all (going home)

I wouldn't have had the balls to do it frankly.... 9999/10000 people would have chickened out and 4 gated or something else half hearted. Naniwa is all heart and emotion that can't be contained.

i love naniwa, we need drama, and he delivers

I find it funny that you go around acting like someone acting like a girl is a bad thing. I find it even funnier that you think Nani threw the game. He probe rushed, it's not an amazing all-in but it's still cheese and he lost. Part of me wonders what the outcry would be like if Nani won, or if Nestea 6 pooled. Like i said at this point you're just bitching because you're unhappy that Nani chose to do x cheese instead of y cheese, and then furthermore implying that x cheese was a result of him just throwing the game when him just GG'ing out would have been much quicker.

I think you are referring to games where teams are eliminated from playoff contention (NBA, NFL, etc.). I'd have to disagree with you because in those cases the results of the games affect other teams (playoff positioning, draft positioning, etc.) while in this case the game was 100% meaningless and had no effect on other players. yeah, with regards to NBA/NFL and draft picks it does matter. However, I was talking more specifically about professional tournaments where a round robin format is in use. Most notably, UEFA Cup or the World Cup. I would love to see Sweden make it to the World Cup, field a team of 7 players, score an own goal and then say "well we went 0-3 in our group, we no longer had anything to play for." Well in those cases then the game shouldn't even be played. If a game is played without meaning then it just isn't fun to watch as a spectator (IPL3 "group stage" added $1000 for the winner of the group since the games would have been near meaningless otherwise) so I don't really feel cheated out of anything, personally. I can understand why some people would be upset though.

He plays to win and be the best, as he has stated and proved time and again. Winning the game vs nestea is not going to help any of those two as none of them would play to their full ability.

If he was Zerg, he would have 6pooled. But he's Protoss, and they don't have a all-in you can do that quickly. If a Zerg 6pooled, no one would have bitched. So in a way, it was his race that caused this ruckus.

So you actually think that sending 7 probes to a players base and taking your hands off your keyboard is a legitmate strategy? He straight up said he threw the game in the interview, are you having trouble reading again?
If nestea had 6 pooled people would have been dissapointed im sure, but its still a legit strategy, moon 6 pooled Huk in the finals game 5 in dreamhack summer and he almost won with it. Tons of people have won games with 6 pools in tournaments. Show me where a player has won a game with a 7 probe rush in a lan. Oh wait you cant.
