Probably on TL. Wasn't it written somewhere that they wished TL would contribute as much to Proleague as EG?
This could be it.

I dont know if Nani would be willing to subject himself to the random community stuff and extra content that seems to come with the job on EG. And the corresponding curse of course

If Liquid hires Nani I will lose all my faith that a team can have an actual philosophy behind their roster. This would be outstandingly unfit.


What philosophy?

thou shall not sign good foreigners


on a more serious note, just cause he was at the house doesn't necessarily mean he'll be joining either team. maybe he was just visiting, or maybe he's on a team that doesn't have a house in korea and gets to live at the EGTL house

I dont' think he will join EG. Huk, Idra and Thorzain hates him (cos they are jelly!)

It's probably TL or Acer.

The general philosophy is more aimed towards mannerism and likeable person rather than raw skill and complete dismissal of most teammates/players (which NaNiwa does).

I don't think it's physically possible for Thorzain to hate someone. Also I don't think there are any hard feelings between Thorzain and Naniwa, it's just a competition for best Swedish player
Just ahead of time, know your addiction's not a crime. It's just a smaller part of who you want to become in the end.

what i don't get about TL is they have this philosophy and are the biggest starcraft site in the english language, yet their players are virtually invisible outside of tournaments. Tyler used to do SotG, but that's about it. i dig the idea of signing people you get along with, but maybe they should try to also promote these players, especially given they do not bring in results aside from their terran and their protoss.

If it was Acer why would he go to the EG-TL house and not the Axiom house?

http://www.teamliquidpro.com/

Team Liquid community site =/= Team Liquid Progaming team site.
There's an obvious bias towards the community site generally benefiting the team, but they do not work alongside one another.

But I agree (: I feel they're paying more attention to their Dota 2 squad now.

Yet they're being carried by a raw skill player for over a year now.

Nani is likable enough for people that aren't ridiculously oversensitive, and is a decent guy overall. There's not much you can pin on him behavior-wise that you also can't pin on Nony, one of the original and most respected Liquid members.

As much as I like the idea of Naniwa beeing on TL (as I like Naniwa and teamliquid) I consider this highly unlikely. EG however makes a lot of sense Naniwa fits in very well as much as I do not like that.

It is not Acer, Kaoru Acer's manager said that he would not recruit Naniwa.

Right. Aside from ESET UK Masters, where Snute got 1st and Ret and TLO got to the quarterfinals (also every Liquid player topped their group) and IEM where Ret got to the quarterfinals and did extremely well in his group. Yeah, you could call that no results...

It's not even a curse, if he has to become a "personality" and stream all the time instead of hard training it's pretty understandable how his skill could drop, EG seems to care more about image than wins. I really hope it's not EG, for the sake of Nani's continued growth, the EG retirement home would not be a good choice.
