I think you have the wrong game. This is SC2 not Final Fantasy 4.

Zelda 2? Dark Siders? Prince of Persia? I got game references for days on this one.

Naniwa go to the water temple and fight yourself.

Water temple confirmed worse than swarm hosts.


As an avid hater of the Water Temple I strongly disagree. Swarm Hosts are worse.

Lies. You can kill swarm hosts. The water temple still stands after you beat the boss. Taunting you. Nothing is worse than the water temple.


You only have to complete the Water Temple once, and as terrible as that one time is once it is over it is over.

Swarm Hosts however are inescapable, they keep returning to torment you.

Also the Water Temple had a redeeming quality, Dark Link is cool as fuck. Swarm Hosts have no redeeming quality.

Two years ago, I began watching SC2 and watched every single major tournament. Since then, I've been watching less and less. The last year or so, I only watched Naniwa playing and now it feels like I won't watch anything.

Please come back favorite player

Not sure how I feel about this. not a Nani fan necessarily for a variety of reasons. Still I can understand why he has such a passionate following. On the one hand I think it's a little silly to play a game you don't even enjoy. On the other hand he is a whiner and this seems like a bit of a cop out. But if you're not having fun what can you do? Best of luck Nani

I really don't like to play Swarm Hosts as a Zerg, but hey... I'm a Gold League 1v1 player, so my opinion doesn't mean crap!

Yeah, what is the deal with Moonglade anyways?

This probably isn't the topic to ask that in though, haha.

On the birthday of HOTS I hear the most saddening news yet. Hath the world no mercy?!

This is harder to take then bisu or Kiwikaki leaving for me, Nani was my main source of motivation and excitement in SC

I knew if anyone would re-kindle my love for Starcraft it would be him. If MC retires I am going back to real life, this barrage of announcements is just depressing

I can't stand this guy. He's being paid good money to play a freaking game and bring eyeballs to his teams sponsors.

If I suddenly one day told my boss I i wasn't working anymore until 'i got my motivation back', not only would I not have a job the next day, but my professional reputation would be on thin ice.

Naniwa get your lazy ass out there and back to work.

To teach LastShadow the meaning of friendship!

Honestly, this is great news in my opinion. I dislike the guy pretty thoroughly and would love to have him out of the scene. The way he quit may be a bit unprofessional, but coupling the hiatus announcement with the reasoning that the game (presumably the Swarm Host, specifically) wasn't even fun to play right now brings even more attention to the need to fix problematic areas of the game. If Naniwa quits permanently and nothing changes, I'll be satisfied. If Naniwa quits, the Swarm Host is fixed, and Naniwa returns, I'll be very happy. If Naniwa quits permanently, but the Swarm Host is still changed, I'll be positively ecstatic.

My only hope is that he shows up and puts effort into his matches at IEM. We've all seen a naniwa who doesn't care before and I for one would hate to see him phone in his games and pull another Probe fiasco.
