would it really have been so hard for him to just play all the games and then leave with his dignity intact!?! i really don't get what he was thinking, it would have cost him like half an hour or at most an hour more of his time, so stupid. now it will be really tough for him to ever make a comeback in a halfway decent team, even in future games like maybe warcraft 4 or whatever.

This is simply the obvious result of the unprofessionalism that Nani sadly displayed at IEM. I'm a diehard Faniwa who will cheer for him both in SC2 and afk but come on =P It seems that Nani has to learn that the scene doesnt exist only for him to follow his goals. It comes with some obligations that you'll eventually have to live up to even during times of low motivation.

Reputation isn't everything, but keeping it high can help. Additionally, the efforts to do so will probably end up faciliating working in the scene for people in one's surroundings. So why not be a star, AND a role model? White-Ra was both for ages, and the koreans still are (yes, I'm kinda copying MC's words from a while back with that, but the point stands).

I'm happy that he has confidence of getting back with little practice. Because of this, I have absolute faith that Nani will get over the hump and come back for LotV! Finns chansen att vara den bästa kommer alltid motivationen tillbaka ^^

Not a single team or sponsor will want him given his poor behavior that he has exhibited, so I don't understand why he feels he alone will make his comeback a reality...

The SC community is better off without his malignant BM. If he changes that and learns to react well with others, then he MIGHT have a chance to get be picked up by another sponsor. Whatever. Take care of yourself.

So as expected, the whole soundproofing deal was really just naniwa throwing a tantrum.

With his history with teams and reputation he sure likes to burn extra bridges just in case one day he might decide to return.

What if he doesn't care? He's 24; he's clearly not going to become a professional in another game.

After what happened to IdrA and the extremely similar circumstances (with Naniwa insulting the community through social media) I'm not surprised. It would be inconsistent not to kick Naniwa.

Well i'm not sure about that. If a team wants a "bad boy" they could take him. Naniwa isn't THAT bm. There's players on ladder that say a lot of worst things.

Naniwa never had a problem getting sponsors as far as I know, no matter the controversy in his wake.

I think EG.eu loses an asset, but maybe they will pick him up for LoL. I think teamsports would do him some good. He is a good kid.

If they did we'd at least have a guarantee that he'd be back in SC2 soon....

Seems like reasonable action to fire him for being completely unprofessional.

Funny thing though is that the people who were condemning him the most for taking someone else's place in the tournament, completely forgot that now and have new terrible thing to condemn. The previous excuse for bashing him conveniently forgotten as it seems to have been false.

This is a girl blog, right?

"Yeah, I know he has been an asshole to his last 47 girlfriends but with me it's going to be different..."

I've heard the rumor that water is wet, can anyone confirm/deny?

edit: I'd totally tune in for Naniwa on any moba/team based game. Not for the games themselves obviously, but the nuclear fallout after losses would be hysterical.

This discussion is getting funnier by the minute. Naniwa was almost on every notable team there is or was in SC 2. Which team or sponsor with any self-respect would want to work with a guy like that?

Yes, Naniwa is a douche, but damn - he is one hell of a player! Whatever you may think of him, you can never take away the fact that he is the best foreigner of all time - in terms of consistency and pure results!
