I am not some person who just charges on without logic and only by heart like some of you think heh. i used to be alot more hot blooded in the past. but i dont say things i dont mean very often. i am still going to go to korea after WCS europe to continue practising I am not giving up hope of becoming the best i can be. if i did i would say so and i probably wouldnt play the game anymore sorry to those i dissapointed.


WCS changed the landscape and you have to do what is best for you. GSL is great, but I miss see foreign players compete against each other. Plus with the number of Korean players that are rumored to be going to EU and NA, I don't think anyone is going to say either league is a walk in the park. Looking forward to seeing you hit the EU players head on.

Wise choice. Train hard and give the foreigners a run for their money.

Well played Naniwa ! You got all the support from your fans ! You are a fighter !

The most memorable games I have ever watched in SC2 were definitely with you ( You vs koreans) Always close games, always mind games, always emotion, and always good fucking games! Taking 3 games off Flash, and winning against the likes of Nestea with a FUCKING proxy 2 gates on daybreak which requires BIG, GIANT, HUMONGOUS BALLS OF STEEL !

Speculation:

Since Info has not been leaked and the team wants to do some good announcement, I think that it is probably a big name team like EG or TL, probably TL though, my money would go on them. My bets also being it's not a Korean team.

Nani, does this mean you've gone back to Europe for the time being? Or are you still in Korea? I also assume this doesn't change anything about your team announcement, right?

I'm excited to see you play in WCS europe, and even though this system kinda sucks, I think you've made the right choice for sure.

EG have recently been advertising jobs to cover their eSports teams in Europe and were looking for people with Swedish language skills in particular so it seems like they will be doing so. No idea how much this connects them to Naniwa although after seeing him in the house in Korea the other day I think this could be a logical conclusion that there is a connection there too.


where did you read about this, can I get a link?

Oh damn, I didn't know that. Naniwa + EG + Korea + Coach Park = God mode? He has the drive and the talent. With the direction of Coach Park, he could do it all. #theorycrafting

Could u imagine that EG would do that EU team thingy.. Stephano, Naniwa, Thorzain, Demuslim, Naniwa etcetc. Would be awesome

It seems unlikely to be Liquid, as although Nani has cleaned up his act he is still considered slightly unsavoury by some. Maybe EG i guess, although they just signed two Koreans.

I am very happy to see you compete in the next DH

All the best in your training sessions so you can show the Koreans what happens if they try to invade Sweden

I love how we can tell Nani reads this thread (by the fact that he's commented in it) and he is sitting here laughing at our guess games
