Could you elaborate?


It's very sharply cut, repeating the mantra of Naniwa wanting ”victory at all costs”. This connects to very negative concepts and feelings, such as, you know, even killing people for the greed.

And Naniwa does not play for the greed. He plays to win, because he loves this games. This means, that as much as he loves this game, he will go for ”victory at all costs”, but this does not mean that he will cross all moral borders to do so, because his endeavors are not based on the greed.

This is just my understanding. This article is too sharp and one-sided, painting very cruel picture of Naniwa, that's why I think this article is really bad.

Yeah... There is so much to write about Naniwa, and they choose to write this... It's a poor quality writeup, it's just plainly one-sided :/

The only thing that is really bothering me is that NaNi haven't got a title for himself.

There are so many things missing in this article. I don't even know how it got out :D (I guess in a big rush.)

Naniwa is the only player who didn't get the title in the "Road to Blizconn" series, and all other 15 players did get the titles... It seems like this has been done intentionally. Maybe there is something coming that we don't know about yet? No idea, this is a really strange article...

Maybe you are right, but I really dont want to blame the writer too much, he is usually writing amazing articles, but this one is a little lacking, but hey it is no problem for me.

It doesn't matter to NaNiwa if he is a hero or a villain. All that matters is if he is a winner or a loser.

This line gave me the chills ! just sad to see that the first one naniwa meets is the most consistent player in the player pool



damn .. seriously what is with these TL articles .. makes me wanna root for every damn player ..

and i have been reading these articles more than academic related matter lol .. cant wait for blizzcon ! hypuuuuuuuuuu

Maybe I'm right?

It's a fact. Just look at the list of players in the "Road to Blizconn" series:
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=434692

Naniwa is the only player without title. Not a big deal. But why?

Anyway, I know Zealously usually does a great job. I'm just wondering, what the hell is going on here?

I really doubt there's some great conspiracy at play here, the writers were rushed to finish these as far away from the tournament start time as possible and It's not as good as it could be.

I usually have huge respect for TL articles but this one is very poorly written. So many inaccuracies and terrible analysis. The author clearly has no clue who Naniwa is or what his playstyle is like. Sad to see TL drop this low in terms of quality...

+1 this article is very bad.

It only talks about personality and only mentions his constant achievements in a site note...
Sorry but this article is a huge fail, compared to the others.

I don't want to read some BS about cheesy protoss and nanis personality. Also is this all nonsense like it was written from "The Sun".
Naniwa isn't only the bad player and he doesn't only play to win. He plays because starcraft is his passion, and you can't have passion for something if you only play to win.

Anyway... the article should have focused on the road he had to walk to get this far from a tournament point...

very bad

You can't call the article shit just because the perspective it's written from.
The article speaks the truth about how NaNiwa plays.

Gogo Nani.

I believe he is capable of beating anyone. His first match is undoubtly gonna be really hard, but he has a fighting chance. After that... who knows?

I have the same feeling. It seems to me that the author just doesn't know much about Naniwa...
