honestly the only difference between Naniwa and others is the fact that other people just hide their bm and act PC/fake on screen where as Naniwa just acts himself

So you mean others have a professional attitude and he doesn't.


One could argue that his willingness to move abroad in order to actually have a chance at competing with Koreans is a lot more professional than what most foreigners are doing.

Now if he only actually did the qualifiers instead of getting seed after seed after seed (i honestly lost the count) the whole "competing with Koreans" might actually have some more worth.


Considering a GSL champion DRG and a nerdballer named YongHwa struggled to even get out of the Code B qualifiers I don't think this is a fair argument, of course he's going to take a seed from GOM even if he doesn't feel like he deserves it. Look at how well things turned out for Jinro when he declined his seed

didn't people say the same thing about HuK being an over energetic BM kid?

People also said that Zenio wouldn't fit because he is a cocky BM kid.


to be fair i think foreigners just based that on his ceremonies vs idra which don't really mean anything lol.


classic Zenio,

DRG made it through himself once before and got eliminated by JYP. Then he did indeed the exchange program and got his seed and since then never dropped out the league. But do you honestly think this compares to Naniwa that never made the qualifiers and got at least 3 seeds (couple in code A and 1 in code S)?

Well to be fair Naniwa dropped out of GSL after he left Quantic and also it's not like many of these seeds were unjustified, the guy was a TSL finalist, and a 2x MLG winner (One vs both MVP and Nestea)

and last time I checked Naniwa is going to be playing in the qualifiers upcoming here (something he has never done as you said simply because GOM kept offering him Seeds which by no means he should refuse), Also he almost qualified for OSL to but lost to San in a pretty damn close series

I did love Zenio's attitude back in the day to be fair, shame he's fallen off a little since then

Axiom seems more reasonable by the day, but I really don't think that the training-atmosphere (highly presumptious on my part) that Naniwa is looking for and need. Yet, it won't be a KeSPA team, I don't see that happening. I don't think its EG either despite him going there.. but with no GOM-house anymore, where's a foreigner gonna go!?
He had the same don't-give-a-f*** attitude from his stream, where he all-ins every game and shamelessly plays three ads.

TL only gets nice people and koreans. He doesn't fit at all, so I'd guess EG. But since it's a partnership house it might be any other foreign team.

Well, we will see. I remember that before Idra signed with EG he has talked on various occasions about how he was offered TL and EG at the time, and he was well known for his attitude, so I don't count anything out. =)

That was a small side tournament not an MLG. That's like calling Arena of Legends a GSL win.

Or others are pandering, two-faced hypocrites and he isn't.

It can be interpreted both ways. ^^

If anything I think it'd be great for Naniwa to join either Liquid or EG. He wants to be the best and under Coach Park I honestly think he'd finally get the chance to try and do that.

He is probably just on another foreign team and they're letting him stay there or smoething. But it would be sick if he joined EG or TL, not entirely impossible!
