Naniwa seems to enjoy Korea and living there, and he is in Code S, so whichever team he joins, probably will have to have some roots in Korea.

Would love to see him join a Korean team like TSL or Startale.


I feel like there would be far too much negative attention to any Korean team that would dare to take him.
It seems like there is still quite a bit of a negative reputation he has in Korea, especially after the Nestea incident(s).

Idra was _wrong_. He claimed Quantic wanted to ditch Nani, but Nani ended his contract.

why would he join ST? he gets the same benefits if he's in quantic + more money + going to foreign events, right?
dumb move by him imo, i hope he's already been talking with a team or is going personal sponsorship type deal, or he's screwed
can i get my estro logo back pls

Hopefully he shores up his attitude before a big team picks him up. I'd rather see Major picked up before him, as he's been working on his public image.

As long as he keeps performing good in Code S, he will always have my respect. This is even in spite of him recently saying "Congrats, you play Zerg" before losing to JR

Stop bashing the guy people, nobody knows what goes on behind closed doors. I just hope he finds a home that allows him to train in a Korean practice envionment. Good luck Nani!

Hmmmm, maybe Liquid. They could use another Protoss.

No chance. He does not come anywhere near close to fitting in with the team/family atmosphere/overall personality of TeamLiquid.

No, because NaNiWa actually left on his own. He didn't get kicked out.

With his Bad reputation(Warranted or not it's there) I don't see a Korean team picking him up any time soon except Maybe Startale since he lives with them already and they would have gotten to know him.

The only Foreign team I can see him landing with really is EG... Most other Teams probably can't afford him, and the ones that can have already had him xD


I don't think EG will take him. EG may be an evil team, but they seem to ask for certain things like not bad mouthing the team, promoting sponsors, ... . EG is to buisness like to take such a risk as hiring him as a player.
