So we have a sourceless quote.

I would really love link, until then I'm going to go with this is a troll.


With your 777 post veteranship you could read the thread and posts first?

I'm pretty sad to read this honestly. I thought this was a really good fighting shot for Naniwa, and Quantic was really feeding off of him in a nice symbiotic relationship with their new team house etc. Everything seemed to be going well

Hope he finds a home, regardless of how he acts, everyone still needs to acknowledge the fact that he is a good player and the competition he brings drives the scene forward.

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...

Which is fine, if Quantic doesn't want him. But they have the right to tell Naniwa to go find another team that would pay for the rest of the contract, or they could do it themselves. That way they would be able to get something out of the deal instead of losing on of their best and well known players for absolutely nothing.

and 4 in his SC2 career before that.

I think naniwa was on mtw before that, it might have been during the WC3 but I recall nightend saying in an interview that they were team mates on mtw and naniwa tried to get nightend kicked out. I suppose that kind of eliminates mtw but since the team is much smaller they may not consider that a problem any more.

Why is the first one there, that's more than 18 months ago... So the guy you quoted was right about 3 teams in a year and a half.

And as expected a tsunami of bullshit washes over a thread about NaNiwa. People just love to hate.

Well, when you BM, Balance whine and team hop as much as NaNiwa does... what exactly do you expect to happen?


I would expect people to have some perspective on things. Being bm in a computer game isn't exactly something that makes you deserve hate and despise.

For example i don't hate or despise IdrA even though im not a fan of him or his behaviour. People gonna hate for the silliest things ever.

Tbh, I could see him getting a solo sponsor and being the next "Grubby" style player where he isn't on a team but is directly sponsered / endorsed.

not surprised at all, from what i heard naniwa was a douchebag to one of the managers in quantic, and i know he acts like one to everyone else.

Didn't IdrA hate HuK too before?

Anyway I hope for StarTale, I would be cool if he stayed in korea and practise and maybe one day reach a code S final


IdrA hated HuK for the way he played the game, not for his personality. He's actually stated that they got along outside of the game before they were teammates.

But Huks so lovable and cute Naniwa... not so much (no offense lol)

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...


You guys seem to forget Nestea HATES Naniwa either you guys have been in the scene for 2 months or you forget past MLGs and the GSL IM Naniwa will NEVER HAPPEN

I wish people would stop making horrible comments about naniwa it's like bullying him

I really hope him the best, hes always one of my favourite players, ppl just really misunderstand him and that's how it's always been. Hes not trying to be nasty or malicious to anyone else, but there are MANY players out there who love saying bad things or being nasty to him.

Even as a huge Naniwa fan I don't think he has the marketability of a solo sponsorship like Grubby

If they didn't request it the player shouldn't be blamed.

I really hope nani thought this one through and it wasn't some heat of the moment decision because he's fallen out with Sase. You got to remember Nani and Sase were best buds and spent a lot of time together, even more so when they've been in Korea. My guess is Nani's pretty upset and that would probably explain is awful play lately (DH/TSL)
