So... aside from the sweedish ancestry, he's idra?

he is kinda right... he has burned many bridges and eg wouldnt touch him where would he go?


There are 51 pages of people listing alternatives. Quantic themselves said there are teams looking to pick him up, and unless you have any reason to question their integrity, I'm inclined to leave it at that.

EDIT: I, for one, am hoping EG... because the awkward feeling i got when they announced huk was joining... was great!

I see him going to Startale or some other Korean team because NaNiwa has been doing very well in the GSL and not so well in foreign tournaments.

The only reason i'd see him leave is for something better. Not money wise but trainingwise, i could see Startale being a good option or possible another korean based team.

Unless offcourse drama broke lose

One game away from Code S semis, now teamless?

I'm sure Nani has some kind of plan. Wish it was EG just to fuck with everybody's brains.

Wasn't he doing pretty well trainingwise at Quantic? I mean he was at the Startale practice house wasn't he?
I think drama broke loose, or possibly he'll join a kespa team. Were I a betting man, it'd seem more likely that the drama broke loose though ^^

Wow, didn't see this one coming. Perhaps $$$ issues? If so then I wouldn't be surprised to see him jump to EG, they're pretty loaded, heh.

umm i hope u dont believe all those press statements from everyone "unless you have any reason to question their integrity", because then you believe a lot of hyperbole, also Naniwa is well known for being tough to deal with, you ever wonder why he leaves teams every other week?
Personally being an EG fan i would love if Naniwa joined, but i really do not see that happening.

I could almost see this coming unfortunately :/ I thin due to his lack of performance lately, he'll.. perhaps give up on professional gaming. What I hope for though, is that he stays in Korea and keeps doing well in GSL Code S



lack of performance? what is this i dont even know . Sorry my bad.. making round of 8 in the last Gsl is clearly lack of performance.


Of course making round of 8 in GSL is NOT lack of performance, but if you look at the international scene, he hasn't been doing as well as before! Perhaps it's one of his "down" times at the moment. Maybe he'll rise again soon and prove himself as the True King of the North. He is one of my favourite players to watch so I sure hope so!

I honestly don't like Naniwa at all, but there's no deny that he is a good player. I doubt a Korean team will pick him up because don't they frown on BM? From what I've read, he's not going to EG and I hope he isn't going to go to Liquid. Liquid is one of my favorite teams and if he joins... meh

idra was right, i highly doubt wuantic complained when nani asked to leave. inf act, he probably left because his contract was up soon and he knew they wouldnt rewnew it. simply a pr move. i hope nobody picks him up, there are way more deserving players out there.


Sarcasm: You're right.. it's so easy to stay in code S 3 seasons in a row with the current system (that is, not bo1 as it was before when some non-koreans could manage with luck).

There are way more deserving players.... hmm... Actually none other than Naniwa that has done this....... I rest my case !


big deal, he made ro8 in code s twice after being given a sypmathy spot. If anything he simply earned what he was already given and nothing more. doesnt news like this make you think a little? naniwa used to be dignitas, and dignitas just picked up an unknown sc2 talent who 3-1ed nani in the tsl. nani has piss poor attitude and really, no huge championships to his name. no team will give him what he wants, because what he wants is not what he deserves.


Hey we're not talking about IdrA here, we're talking about Naniwa...
Dead game.
