Oh god... the internet.


I couldn't resist making the comment because I actually have an idea of what I am doing. Lighten up. Sheesh.

Nope. Psychologists don't know the first thing about psychoanalysis.

It's hard to look at this and think that it's not rage. Good players come and go, but only great players stick it out through the bad times.

Anyway, before this gets more off topic, Naniwa is a very polarizing figure, even more so than IdrA IMO. I don't see EG or Liquid picking him up due to his attitude. Naniwa is all about Naniwa, which will tend to isolate him. Yes, he is really good SC2 player, but who he is as a person also matters when it comes to deciding whether to add him to your team or not. Given his track record with teams in the past and his various controversies, a lot of teams are going to have hesitations about adding him to their roster.

You would know this better than any of us, but how much does Naniwa actually care about the money? This is the guy who accepted being kicked out of his parents house in order to continue trying to become a pro-gamer, and seems to care more about winning than contracts or teams. If his main focuses right now are gsls and winning, it might make a lot of sense for him to sign with a Korean team.

That being said it's Naniwa and you never know where he'll end up.

I don't think Naniwa are intrested in a team that can't afford to send him to MLG/dreamhack and so on.

He skipped the last few MLG´s and I think, he attendet the Dreamhacks just because they are in sweden - and the next ones are in Spain/Romania.

Idra talking about naniwa


This is rubbish. Idra has to understand that during a BO-X series, all-ins and rushes are part of the game and part of the mind games that players use on each other. Just because a player uses them doesn't mean he has no skill. Fair enough if this player does cheese EVERY game in a BO series, but 1 in 3 seems like the smart choice to me...especially if youre playing up against a greedy player.

I hope a Korean team signs him because they produce better players and focus on higher level, more entertaining events.

I think he'll get a solo sponsorship and maybe the Startale guys will let him stick around the house.

I know he wants to stay in Korea, and I doubt he'd be very content with the GOM house.

His only other options if he wants to stay in Korea would be the TSL house (join Mill) or the Slayers house (join EG).

TSL/Mill might be an option for him. It seems he trains a lot with plot (who speaks english).

Maybe we will see Stephano -> EG and Naniwa -> Mill
