Its super bad manner imo to ask to leave a team and then join another one when you are already contracted. I am not sure what the reality is, but it looks like Naniwa asked to leave Quantic, left, and is now searching for another team.Quantic spent time and money for Naniwa, and if another team wants him then they should be compensated for that. The other team should have to buy the contract off of Quantic.
I don't know who will grab him now. It seems that Naniwa has gone through most of the major teams, I don't think that he will be able to get on one with the same amount of resources and perks as Quantic.


The OP clearly tates that Quantic doesn't want him if he's not interested in playing for them...

I can confirm that SaSe will not be leaving with Naniwa, and will stay in Quantic. Naniwa has released a statement to me, along with others, that will appear in a GameSpot story probably tomorrow. Excerpt from his statement:

"Quantic kept everything they promised me and me to them. i sincerely wish them the best!"

Traditionally we prefer that on Tuesdays and Thursdays...Mondays, eh...

haha, that's an awesome comback

I don't see why EG would really want to take Naniwa, a player who is harassing EG all the time and really can't behave and not even the good kind of not behaving. He is probably going to join a smaller team like EC or ROX or something like that. Definitly not a korean team.


^ this.
EG is all about marketing their players. Naniwa has to be the least marketable person in e-Sports right now.

Naniwa is a pretty hated character at EG, SirScoots in particular was very harsh (borderline bully) at Dreamhack Summer. There is 0% chance of him going to EG.

Also, don't assume that Naniwa has a plan leaving - he is a pretty volatile guy

I kind of don't think Startale will pick him up, his manor haven't always seemed like the best one but who am I to tell?.
Tbh I think naniwa will probably start a team of his own like Whitera. The reasons for his departure from different teams seems to be related to his social *skills*. Due to this I think creating a team for himself would probably be the best.

But again as always who knows but Naniwa himself?

he just left quantic who his affiliated with startale, why would he join startale ? it would be the same except he would not get a salary and would almost never go to foreign events. I don't get your logic.

mouz is my guess
The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother

I don't think LG-IM would want a player with his attitude. SK seems likely, assuming they have the money. Or Fnatic, but they bought their share fair of players already.


I don't think IM would be against him joining because of attitude problems, but do they really want him considering how many good players they have already? Mvp, Nestea, Seed, Happy, Yoda, Yonghwa, First, Losira...

Hero left oGs for Liquid and they had a partnership

That partnership was the reason Liquid got Hero iirc. They were in talks for some time with oGs to have Hero transfered to the TL roster. It wasn't like Hero just up and left oGs to go look for another team because he was unhappy/having issues on oGs.

I guess this is to be expected. ESPORTS never really seemed to be tolerant of people with Autism in the first place anyhow.

Is that meant to say that they kept all their promises, or 'kept' everything they promised him? I'm sure it's the former, but..

It's just one head-scratcher after another with Naniwa. Hope he gets it together someday.

He's angry because of the TSL games he lost. Zerg too imba.
