I want Revival to win so they both get to go as they both earnt the right to go xD
A bo5 match before the tournament at blizzcon seems very cool


free invitation to IEM doesn't seem like earning the right to go....

More then bribing other people when you couldn't get their on your own.


What's up with your comments in this thread? This has litterally nothing to do with his ability to go there on his own.

It has actually.
If he was good enough and made enough points in the seasons he wouldn't need Rivival to fail. Quite simply.


He doesn't need Revival to fail, he just doesn't need to beat him himself if Revival loses

nice gamesmanship but it feels a bit unfair because revival cant do the reverse. he cant say 'hey everyone playing me ill give you 500 dollars if i make it to blizzcon'

it's probably a joke, but it's still inappropriate. you just can't have participants throwing around prize pools to other participants, the reasons should be obvious

it will probably fly in sc2 because esports isn't serious enough yet, but in any major real sport this would be absolutely grounds for fines/suspensions/etc

I don't know about you but this seems pretty serious to me. No other player has any reason to play their best which vastly favors revival (and therefore hurts naniwa). This is an excellent way to make the people in revivals group care because as long as one of them takes a series off revival naniwa is the 16th man.

I'm 100% okay with it Only thing that I could add is that Alliance should've thought to do this as a team. Having someone represent them at Blizzcon is worth the 500$, and they can probably afford that(or more). Blizzcon is serious business, and draws a metric shit ton of eyes.

Go Naniwa!

in the comical sense well... first time naniwa makes me laugh ahah, but in a more serious matter... idk, some might not take it lightly :D.

anyways naniwa has nothing to loose with this offer... besides 500USD, and he is used to be shitstormed anyways

I'm confused, I thought Naniwa was guaranteed for Blizzcon now? Did they not say that at WCS season 3 finals?

Casters were running their mouth off like usual.
Rivival gets a chance to make enough points to be even with Naniwa which means a Bo5 is getting hold at Blizzcon but only the winner can actually play in the main tournament.

Why does Revival get anymore points? I thought he forfeited against puck and therefore lost his chance to gain points?

Good on you Naniwa, adding interest to SC2 and WCS. There are plenty of reasons you could choose not to like the guy, but I don't understand the people who choose this as one of them.

He makes a good point that the people playing Revival don't have a ton of motivation to go all out with preparation, but this is the first time I've ever seen a player offering rewards to other players to beat someone else. Personally I don't have a problem with it, but I could see many fans, especially in Korea, thinking this is a little shady.


HAHAHAHA. Omg. Alex what did you start man?

Haha, I like it. He's creating a bit of drama, making the last CL stage more fun and stirring up some buzz about himself all in one fell swoop.

Better not pay 500 bucks and then lose in the Ro16 tho, Nani

Still worth it, Nani would pay at least 1K dollars, but earn 5K. He should offer more.

I really, really don't like Naniwa, but I don't have a problem with this. It's a cool idea.

He should also offer the future opponents of revival coaching advice. But the groups are known too late.

This is now Revival's theme song, to be played whenever he enters a stage. This is the opportunity of a lifetime for him. I would kill for this theme.



I'd rather have the wanted man song from johny cash.

I think this bounty thing is awkward. This guy is fucked up. lol

Since I'm absolutely inexperienced when it comes to actual sports. Has there ever been a situation similar to this? I'd be interested to hear it to be honest because I personally see nothing wrong with this sort of thing though I may be overlooking something very important.
