Naniwa's basically unemployable at this point. He's almost impossible to work with, wants loads of money and isn't actually that good anymore and with the Kespa dominance he'll get even further from the top. Plus while he has a fanbase he lacks the personality to work well with sponsors and do any other adult like activities.

I wouldn't even have Naniwa in a top 50 in the world list, he was always pretty overrated and had a shocking 2012.



Be careful,naniwa fans coming for "he made ro8 twice!!" and "last foreigner left in MLG fall championship!"

To me it's just fun seeing the rivalry between the two swedish titans get more serious


I just think the "big personality, big talk" players should pick on each other and leave the manner players alone. Then we all can have our cake and eat it too.


He tried that with IdrA, but then IdrA dodged the show-match and called Naniwa a sociopath and said he'd hurt him physically or something like that if he kept bothering him about it. Would've been fun though. :p

Yeah, it's impossible to counter the arguments that were made in that post after all /sarcasm. Beyond random elephant-theorising that post contains statements without any sort of sources, proof or backing at all.

Under the right conditions, I'm the best Swedish player with the highest potential as well!

Such coincidence ;o

I mean, he did do those things. He might not be top 50 in the world (I think you'd find 50 Koreans for that), but he's definitely one of the top foreigners. Whether or not being one of the top foreigners merits being on a good team is debatable when you have the kind of personality issues Naniwa does.

I don't see any other foreigner with the same potential as NaNiwa. Most foreigners are lazy while NaNiwa has the mindset that is required to be on a Korean level of play..

I really hope HoTS goes well for NaNiwa as SC2 is so much more fun to watch when he's competing.

"I don´t want to be compared with with ThorZain. I think I´m much better than him".

Don't really see the need to take this attitude to be honest.

It it were any other sport we'd be like "YEAAAAAAAAAAH! KILL HIM", all manly roars and shit.
Instead we're like "Oh I'm so shocked! How could he say that? Dear, so disrespectful!"

Please don't .

It's cool he found a new team but maybe he should be a bit less arrogant when he has not much to back it up .
"I don´t want to be compared with with ThorZain. I think I´m much better than him". Seems a bit too much . :/

Yea and then 2 fanbases proceed to fight each other after a match.
Clearly that is sooo much better.
