Id say there are quite many swedes in the community strongly condemning Naniwas attitude and personality.
However - it seems like many people like you feel some kind of desperate need to point out that all swedes are fans of Naniwa - which clearly is not the case. If you had any idea about the Swedish community you would know that Naniwa is not as apriciated as you might think.

It's hard not to notice that almost all of his followers on this site have the swedish tag, that naniwa almost always specifically thanks swedish fans as if others aren't worthy of him, and that there is always some excuse related to sweden on his pathetic actions. Sorry that generalising happens, but unfortunately it does.

Everyone in Europe knows there is something off about Swedish people.

I still think IEM screwed up by announcing the WTA halfway through the season. It makes people not wanting to participate a lot more understandable. I see that Naniwa got 2nd place at IEM New York, at which time he didn't know the world championship was winner take all (links for dates).

On the other hand, Naniwa's arguments so far have been, "I didn't feel like it." I certainly wouldn't want to be compelled to hop on a plane for what felt like a pointless trip. Then again, Naniwa seemed to appreciate the free hotel. It's really hard to tell what's going on in his head, and I get the feeling he's trying to keep it that way.

I am not defending him and most of the haters are not Swedish.

I'm sorry but that is not defending?

He did a lot of stupid and got rightfully fired from Alliance. Looking from a personal perspective I don't think he did anything terrible, unforgivable wrong. Happy?

Yes

Well anything other than that would be a farce. He is a stupid kid who quit so why still give him money? I hope he is gone forever and we will never see him again.

Although I perfectly understand why Naniwa was kicked from Alliance I don't understand a few things.

Why was Alliance insisting Naniwa to go knowing he wasn't practicing nor didn't want to go there? Alliance could have saved themselves headace by amically terminating the contract instead of causing damage to the Alliance brand.

Although Naniwa's behaviour at IEM was unacceptable it does makes me think a bit less of Alliance in general. That being said, this is Naniwa's explanation and it isn't almost the most reliable.

  • Doesn't play anymore.
  • Multiple infractions on his contracts from previous behavior.
  • Doesn't understand basic contractual obligations.
Sounds like he hasn't changed since Quantic; so kudos for Alliance/EG for tolerating him for this long.

I don't feel sorry this guy.

Dont feel sorry for him one bit, good riddance !!!




This tells it. It was a complete shame.

He sure does deserve to be kicked. Saying you don't want to go to your job + *I didn't practice for something I qualified for* is the biggest piss poor excuse ever.


I don't want to defend Naniwa's actions, but this would be a lot more like you send in your two-week notice to the job that was getting on your last nerve, but they keep scheduling you and then you're boss shows up one day at your house and DRAGS you to work. Obviously, you get pissed and you make a bunch of customers really pissed off and then you get fired.

His behavior in the past days has been extremely unprofessional and hurts his organization and sponsors, I don't see a problem that [A] want to let him go.
