Pretty painfull to see a honest guy like Naniwa have to do this ceromonial dance to please the community. All he wants to do is play his game, when he loses he wants to gtfo and prepare for the next competition. The world is what it is, ppl need their drama, acting, and fake games.

I'm glad Naniwa is able to come out with such a graceful public apology as it speaks volume of not just his character, but the character of his team as well. Now that he has politely apologized, as a community we should learn from these errors and see that such a debacle doesn't happen in the future.
Do not worry if you have built your castles in the air. They are where they should be. Now put the foundations under them.

Excellent statement. Quantic proving to be an extremely professional team and Naniwa showing great maturity in his statement. This is definitely a learning experience for BOTH parties. I'm sure if Naniwa is really Code S class, I expect to see him in Code S fairly soon .

This whole story is pathetic Naniwa did nothing wrong by probe rushing it's the tournament format that is fucked up. I'm disapointed that Naniwa apologized though he should assume his acts proudly not surrendering to those silly pieces of shit.

Hope this words are true from Nani. If so, here is for his return to Code S as soon as possible.

He apologized because that is what the Koreans expected for sure. As I said before, let´s hope the apologies were sincere.

I respect the team, but have lost any respect to Naniwa or his cut & paste apology.

Because Naniwa is the first player to ever cheese in a tournament. Good point.

A good move by Quantic.

It will be interesting to see if Naniwa's future actions are in line with his words! GL Quantic and Naniwa!

Naniwa didnt do anything wrong. This statement just represents what he needs to say to appease the community. He has nothing to appologize for. imo, people are just getting their panties bunched up for nothing.


Indeed. It leaves a bitter taste in the mouth.

I suppose Naniwa had better jump through there hoops for now. Learn how to throw games the Korean way, 4-gating or cannon rushing and learn to lie when hes interviewed afterwards on the strategy to maintain some level of plausible deniability.

Even if it is too late to fix the situation I think that it is good that Naniwa realizes that he is not just playing for himself and that there other expecting to see more from him then what happened here. I hope that the statement that has been put out is true and that all parties involved truely feel what they have said in this statement. I do hope see Naniwa playing again soon.

Take that as you will.

Yeah I think that some of it does come from his history but even though I respect so much Quantic for sticking behind Naniwa and saying he is our player in our "family" and we want to help him in any way possible and stick by him through thick and thin because Naniwa is truly a great player and I have gained much respect for both Naniwa and Quantic Gaming

A well written apology by Quantic and Naniwa. I just find this part a bit strange:

While we respect and understand GOMTV’s existing decision, we implore GOMTV to consider giving NaNiwa a “second chance” to fulfill his dream to compete in GSL Code S in a future season.


Isn't implore too strong of a word?

Hey Quantic Gaming,

Organize a bo5 or bo7 showmatch pitting Naniwa against Nestea. Put up a $1000 prize pool, have of the prize pool goes to the winner while the other half goes to the winner's choice of charity.

This would give the fans the "rival match" that was "stolen" from them and it would be good PR. This would also help mend the relationship between Naniwa/Quantic and the e-sport community.


i totally agree with this. An apology while laughing behind the scenes is a bit to little.

Quantic makes a statement for naniwa to "give" he is still one of the best player in the world, Code A player that can't get out of the open bracket in MLG moves on to bashing Idra or Sen , kids will keeps about "hurting esport" ,gom keeps the stupid format and kespa-ish rules... everyone is happy.
