WOW i guess EG finally got him, has to be EG plus he said hes going to Korea so I assume he wants to play in proleague for EGTL as they just got rid of one of its players.

Could be Acer. The Ax-Acer team could need some reinforcement in the GSTL with Crank having neck troubles and being a bit short on players compared to other teams. That could just be my wishful thinking though. MMA, Scarlett, Naniwa would be sweet.

I like how whenever anyone has attitude in the pro scene a couple dozen nerds have to come out of nowhere and fling insults at the confident personality. You need to get over yourselves.

I'm a big Thorzain fan and all, but I believe Naniwa is going to be the better player in HotS, especially since Thorzain went and somehow lost to Killer when Terran was showing nothing but dominance at MLG. I also don't see Thorzain with 2 Code S Ro8 finishes, so how are you going to blindly fanboy and call Thorzain the better player? Because Thorzain is nicer?

Naniwa is alive? Good to know. Seriously, I was gonna create a thread these days "Where's Naniwa?", because he was under the radar for a very long time. He used to be one of the top few foreigners, and has now become an enigma.
My random guess: AZUBU_Naniwa

It's more the transition period between WoL and Hots that's caused this. He turned down a few of the bigger early Hots tournaments because he was still playing WoL and didn't want to play without being better prepared. And I think he's been streaming less due to his pc (not 100 sure about this).

It's definitely gonna be Quantic or Acer but I'd hate to see Nani in green so I'm going with Quantic.
Quantic'Naniwa the second sounds awesome.

I also like seeing people with comprehension problems, Naniwa IS the better player, which is something every objective person looking at his achievements knows. So for him to be obsessed with the need to mention it in numerous interviews seems weird, especially since it's a one-way word war that Thorzain pretty much ignores. Where exactly did I link personality and skill in my post and where did I say Thorzain is better?

No offense to Nani, but how many teams has he been on in the past now? There's probably a reason why...

Thorzain isn't a bad person to be compared with.

Hope the best for him and good luck to whatever team picked him up.

He also won the qualifier to IPL6 but obviously that's been cancelled...

Are you sure its Naniwa who is obsessed, or it's just the interviewers who keep asking Naniwa to compare himself to Thorzain every time?

(P)Acer|NaNiwa please. 1) They need more Protoss. 2) They are in Korea playing GSTL with Axiom.

My guess is that he joins a KESPA team though

It's funny. I think SaSe will outmatch both...

On a more serious note, I think NaNi will be joining Acer. He will face familiar faces and I think it will be an easy way to adept to an English managed Korean house.
