Never heared of it. So NaNiwas is playing this Casualgame now? o_0

Did u read the op?


Yes and I only read something of Alliance and no SC2 Team I ever heared of... I expected to see a Thread like "Nani joins Team X" ..

how can someone be so stupid, please explain

so where does nani stay in korea? i assume egtl house?


I think he's returning to EU because of this tweet:


"I hope I have enough time in korea to fix my playstyle versus zerg ..."
Implies that he will only be in Korea for a certain amount of time before returning to Europe. Could also imply that he wants it fixed before the first offline WCS event he has to go to (in Europe) and that he'll return to Korea after that.

EDIT: Oh sorry, thought you meant whether if he would stay in Korea or not. WHERE in Korea... I guess EG-TL house makes sense. Hopefully he'll be able to stream!

Actually now that you're saying it it might be another sign of this being EG. It's one of the two words in the two-name double team team Unholy Alliance.

I like this a lot, Nani will still be kind of the lone wolf until more players are signed which he seems to like. Good to see him on a team though!

I'm guessing they're doing this so they can promote different sponsors in different regions in the future but who knows.

Yeah, this was not exactly what I expected.

Hopefully this'll work out for our boy, Nani.

All these players with no teammates should just join together.

No he is not. NaNiwa is in Korea but will travel back to play in DH Stockholm as well as WCS Europe groups.

You don't get it, it is just a way to join EG and dodging the EG curse! As simple as that!
It's good to be back

His new team is big news in Sweden .

Aftonbladet.se (Largest newspaper in Sweden) writes about NaNiwa joining TheAlliance.

"I'm confused, how exactly has Naniwa's real situation changed? He still doesn't have any SC-playing teammates. He's playing for a team in name only. It could of course be an EG partnership thing like many of you have speculated, but in terms of the stuff that's actually in the announcement, I don't see what he has to cheer for".


Dude, he is allready playing and practising with EG-TL players, and seriously, you dont need a team to practise with, its enough to log on KR server. And since Naniwa owns in his last tournaments, he for sure doesnt need a jae dong, flash etc to practice with, he is that good allready.

Lmao post especially "And since Naniwa owns in his last tournaments, he for sure doesnt need a jae dong, flash etc to practice with, he is that good allready" for sure going 30-0 against some medicore eu players from sweden only, makes you gosu.... not.Dont get me wrg im not saying hes weak/noob etc but hes nowhere near Flash level atm and Naniwa himself would say same proly.


Well, Naniwa beat flash last meeting with 2-1, and the meeting before that he lost 1-2, Naniwa REALLY is that good, and he will show that ONCE AGAIN to all haters that he is very very good no mather who he practice with. There is always these nonbelievers and haters everywhere. Many players become better with sick practice partners, and for example hole EG house got worse when they got stephano and jae dong, so NO, everyone isnt an idiot that doesnt want great practice partners, some of them is allready that good, just like Naniwa. But yeah he will show it to you all april 26-27th during dreamhack.
