Why does people keep hating on honesty? I'd rather every player be completely honest instead of saying things they don't even mean just for good PR and some extra money.

Of course it's how the world works though, but I think NaNiwa is really cool for not going with the flow. To me, it sometimes hurts me to see people saying things they definitely don't mean. I know Koreans etc are very "respectful" towards other players but that also makes them fake and a bunch of liars. We all know that a Korean doesn't think that [insert random foreign player who's never been to Korea] is a great player, yet of course they will say so in an interview.

I like the fact that NaNiwa doesn't really care about this. He speaks his mind - if someone sucks - he says so. If someone is good (like Creator for example) - he'll say so as well. He doesn't lie, he isn't fake, he speaks his mind and I admire him for doing that.

Frickin' awesome NaNiwa, can't wait for ro8!!!

NANIWA FIGHTING !!!

This dude rocks! He's one of the bests, he knows it and he says it! No need for fake modesty! And that's not being arrogant to state a fact! Hope he can get all the practice partners he need for his RO8, I'd be really sad to learn that several players have refused to practice with him.
However the Jinro comment was bit tactless like someone previously said, after all he could show a bit more respect for people's past achievements.

I don't get the balance question anymore at this point tbh.
atm we got 2 terran, 3 protoss and 1 zerg in round 8 and still with the balance questions that zerg is OP.

Anyway, great work storywriter and grats Byun and Naniwa.

If you could only have one person to practice with, I'd put Parting pretty high on my list :p

How did he insult Jinro? Everyone knows that what he said is true. In fact he paid Jinro a complement as his answer suggests he considers Jinro's achievements to have been the highest previously among the foreigners. I swear people are just looking for drama in his replies. There may be reasons why people aren't practising with him, but it has nothing to do with his interviews.

What's insulting? People have been saying that about Jinro for a long time and I guess even he would have to agree.

Foreigners just seem to have a hard time keeping up even while training in Korea and that makes their past achievements, well, not look that good.

How did he insult Jinro? Everyone knows that what he said is true.

If everyone knows it they why insult the guy in public? It was an unnecessary jab at someone and explains why many pros dislike the guy.
