Naniwa to a Kespa team? The thought of it just makes me laugh! :p :p

so basically this is the naniwa-hype that occured in early 2012...Is it me or do programmers tend to make "controversial" statements when they start to fed out of relevance. Pretty sure there was series competition at whatever tournament naniwa just won

I hope the announcement video can out do the Sase to Fnatic announcement video.

I'm still rooting for Thorzain. Besides, Terran > Protoss :D! JKjk no balance talk here!

Friendly competition between Swedes is good right?

You know I could see it happening mainly because about a month ago or something Idra tweeted to Naniwa something along the lines of "haha I have to admit that is actually pretty funny." in response to his picture of himself watching Huk play in the Cinema, and as much as people like to hate on Idra or whatever I think hes actually a pretty reasonable guy when it comes to business and would be willing to tolerate Naniwa on the team even if he didn't like him as he really is a great investment imo

I think at this point Huk is irrelevant enough that EG is willing to just ignore his threats about leaving the team granted there may be others who don't want him on and we just may not know about it

The two most obvious teams he could join IMO are:

WW
Considering their roster is still relatively small and that they are partnered with NSHoseo I can see Nani heading over to their team house to practice alongside SortOf (Who he is friendly with I believe?) Also have to consider the fact that Arthur just joined WW as well and we can only assume he is planning to stay in Korea so we can potentially see 3 WW players partnering with NSHoseo.

Acer
Seems logical considering him and Nerchio get along and there is an open room in the Axiom house alongside Scarlett, Nani and TB seem to be on good terms for the most part although I'm not sure his relations with Heart and Crank are the best.

I could see him joining potentially Startale or even a Kespa team which I think would be a great fit for Nani if they are willing to let him travel abroad. Personally I'm just excited to see that Nani will be back in Korea to showcase just how good and underrated he was in WOL (mainly because I think Protoss was hard to be consistent with if you played a solid macro style like Nani did for the latter part of his career)


he isn't friendly with nerchio lulz


well Nerchio says gg vs him which is actually more than we can say about almost 85% of his opponents, and Nani has even said he thinks nerchio is a good player which is his way of saying he likes you basically

I hope he gets in a big team with a lot of practice partners. Go NaNi!

It's nice to see so many arguing whether Naniwa or Thorzain is better. It doesn't quite matter who is, but the fact that Naniwa has managed to make so many people all riled up about it is great for both Naniwa and Thorzain. A lot of fans on both sides will be looking forward to Dreamhack even more, and rooting for whichever one of them they like best. So it's basically a triple win for Sweden:
Dreamhack wins, Thorzain wins, Naniwa wins. It's not likely either of them (the players) will actually win the event itself (even if they can, I witnessed it firsthand last year), though if one of them does then that's another win for Sweden.

As much as I want to see such a thing, I'd love to see Lucifron take it as well because his play is sometimes a work of art. Speaking of which, is there any place to see who have qualified so far?
