Wow, just wow.

So much hate and rudeness going on towards Naniwa. I really feel sad for the guy. Forfeiting games isnt something new. And when Naniwa writes that "Polt could hear the casters too" I dont see why you shouldnt trust him.

And what is up with the disrespectful crowd, a player dont wanna play, we know some of the reasons but not the whole picture. And they boo him out.

Im not racist, but that would never happen in Dreamhack or at an MLG.

Naniwa have made a few choices that have been provocative before, but I dont see any wrong with this.

I see it like this, Naniwa is having a rough time right now. Be nice to the guy, like him or not, there are loads of people who still play sc2/watch sc2 only because of him.(I for example)

I think Im done with this community after some great years, I was hoping all along that Naniwa would get a nice retirement but I guess the community isnt what it was 2 years ago.

That's right. No need for doctors. As long as you sincerely believe it, it's okay to call people autistic online.

That kind of behaviour will scare potencial sponsors even futher seeing E-Sports like Children playing in the sand instead of a serious competition.


What hurts the scene even more is shoddy production that ruins the game. If anything it's a disgrace for Poland showing that they have no idea how to host a tournament. Thankfully we have good tournaments like Dreamhack that knows what the heck they are doing.

It's interesting that people are defending him on technical matters, like his eminent past, soundproofing issues and forfeiture rules.

I don't think it was WHAT Naniwa did that was unacceptable (well, not entirely, anyway). We know he's been a good player in the past, who has provided memorable and enjoyable games. Soundproofing has been a legitimate concern as of late; it's nothing new, and it can be serious. A number of players have resigned from tournaments for one reason or another; occasionally there have been flak, but more often than not marginal at best. I don't know about the community, but I would certainly understand if Naniwa had an issue with those problems.

It was HOW he executed it all that was intolerable, and the backlash was justifiable. Complaining about soundproofing in-game--followed by a rage quit, doesn't quite garner much respect. Neither should the subsequent posts on Twitter. HE made his own exit as ignominious as possible, and who are we to deny that from him? Professionalism doesn't just mean following the rules, it also implies a level of sportsmanship, a degree of ethics, and so forth.

You need to practice thinking a bit more then. I'm not trolling at all. What a classless bunch of troglodytes they are. Booing like that is not how it's supposed to be done. Perhaps in Poland, but not anywhere else.

Apart from the players hearing the casters and the crowd? I dunno. But that's reason enough to be worried.

I would've booed and I am not from poland. He behaved bad towards the tourney, his opponent and the crowd. That is justification enough for me.

Sound proofing is almost impossible to do(completely) unless you pay for the real sound proof booths which are super expensive. The only other reasonable thing to do is have the players in other rooms which can ruin the atmosphere of the tournament.
also gom had the same issues so i'm not sure why you're singling out poland.

This guys above are soo inteligent. So much wisdom in thier words. Yeah just because there is an event in any particular country let`s just dis the home country and asume that the technical equipment that traveled through many continents isn`t the same in all of them, and lets just asume that the home country of event takes ALLL TECHNICAL maintenaice!!! THOSE are the same soundproof booths that were in Sao Paulo, Cologne, New York!!! GET YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOYR ASSS!!!

Sure yeah!!! Let`s just blame all the people in particular country when a fanbois player acts like an unmature child with an ego and emotonial levels of a chimpanzee!!!

To TL moders, I`m very glad that you let in sooooooooo much nationality attacks in this topic, poland this, poland that!! GG KUDOS!!!

When playing vs Flash on MLG - Naniwa clearly had no shame in his body turning his scouting probe around when the crowd reacted to him missing Flashs proxy barracks.

You got to love winning more than you hate losing. And judging from how much NaNi hates losing there's no wonder he's the best foreigner (or was). Anything else is irrelevant. Booing like a bunch of enviromentally damaged alcoholics just reinforces the caricature of post-Sovjet countrymen being wrongfully brought up savages. It's saddening to see.
