cause Naniwa *might* be worth the hassle, whereas Major not so much I guess.


after the proberush thing and leaving teams a lot more than major? after BMing a lot of koreans?

no. no korean sponsor would want him to be in the team he sponsors

No one leaves teams like Major.

we'll see, never say never. a foreign guy that's actually good can be attractive to some korean teams, makes them stand out and stuff.

People need to stop using Alicia and Seed to support this particular argument. A month and half ago, it wouldn't have even crossed your mind to say they are better but since they've had a little run of success, all of sudden they are put into "best players in the world' status??

So winning Code S is "a little run of success"? Are you serious? oO


Not to mention that Seed rolled through an amazing list of players compared to Naniwa, including Symbol, byun, violet, and mvp. All players that I don't think Naniwa would be a favorite against.

*cough* Jjakji *cough*

Jjakji was fairly lucky to win Code S (look at his run - things fell into place for him in a way that isn't true for Seed or basically anyone else) and has been fairly unlucky since, putting up great games and barely losing to top opponents typically.

He's still one of the best Terrans in the world as far as I'm concerned.

i dont know if i'd go as far as to say top 8 in the world, but also i dont think i 'd go as far as to name a list of players that are better than him . Because to me that seems like even more bullshit you have made up just randomly on the fly.

For you to just be like, x player is better with no facts to back up your statements you clearly come of as a naniwa hater and you know what they say about haters, Haters going to hate no matter what.

If you want to go by facts, Naniwa has faced Genius 4 separate times . Once in the GSTL , naniwa won. 2 times in the gsl, naniwa won. And once in the Nasl = genius won. So with 4 meetings naniwa wins 3 of them and you can write with confidence that genius is better than him? be fucking real here. He has also beaten puzzle.. I dunno man, I wont say that naniwa is better than those players, but i also wont say that those players are better than naniwa. Take a chill pill.

Player A beating player B doesn't always mean that Player A is better than player B. SortOf beat naniwa twice recently, is he better than naniwa ? NO. Also, naniwa faced genius 3 times in the gsl and lost once out of these 3 encounters.

I hope you're not suggesting Major isnt actually good. Major is as solid and legit as they come.

Oh and I would say probably not Seed, not Puzzle and not Genius/HerO. But thats just a personal opinion, right? (Although I definitely agree with him not being top8).

Seed, just wins Code S, is not better than Naniwa.... Are you fucking kidding me dude? How the hell is Naniwa a better player than Seed?

LG-IM Naniwa? They've got to be very rich at this point and if naniwa wants to stay in Korea they seem like a nice fit.

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

You seem to forget that IM management is in charge of the team not NesTea.

You seem to forget that the IM management too dislikes naniwa.

Not to mention the fact that beating a player shows only that a player is good in that specific matchup. You don't decide who the best protoss player is by having him play a bunch of PvP, thats for damn sure.

I don't get it, even if Jjakji hasn't won another GSL since then he's still posted better results and made more money than 99.9% of progamers.
