EG basically created alliance to double dip on sponsors, so check the eg sponsor list.

That's not classy at all. An honest account of Naniwa's successes and problems would have been classy. The complete whitewash management released can't be taken seriously, and is most likely (and hopefully) not genuine.

Also the lack of grammar checking in a official statement is kind of irking.

"an excellent training partner" as long as he wins, because when he loses....

Also, that statement from Loda is kinda weird, in an interview when they became Alliance (the dota 2 team), he said that he liked him from a long time before (without knowing him) and he was kinda his fan, but when they first met in a tournament, Naniwa mostly sent him to... well, with child-protection words, to "a place far, far away"

But well, since I don't know what is Naniwa doing these days, I hope that statement "his decision to take a break for at least six months to pursue another game" is a metaphor, because I don't see him reaching too far in another game, at least not one that has team play.

Other than saying have instead of has, it just has a few commas/semicolons missing. It doesn't really matter.

Incidentally, *an official statement

Naniwa + team play = no way.

One thing is sure, he'll get strong at one thing in a MOBA: blame his team...

I love these official press releases. They're just so full of wonderful happiness and everyone getting along so nicely behind the scenes.

That sure was a load of crap. What kind of an official statement has so quirky girl style, awkward use of smileys and a scent of total fangirlism?

I never liked KellyMilkies but this sets an all-time low. Not good rep for EG/Alliance!

3 facts about the SC2 community on Naniwa:
1) cant get over how naniwa thumbs-downed Nestea, and probe-rushed Nestea.
2) cant get over the fact that a foreign protoss is considered the best foreigner. (GG Terran and Zerg Tears)
3) last but not least, refuse to believe that Naniwa (the best foreigner) have the balls to show his opinion publicly and uncensored.

Deal with it all you Nani-haters. He is so far the best foreigner to have come to the scene.

Must be nice being in a good position in a team just because you're in bed with one of the people on it.

I'm talking about Loda of course.

This statement seems legit to me because you know a mutual agreement clearly includes someone feeling forced to do something and saying No 5 times before finally being threatened to shut up and go. I specifically like the "family" part, because as we all know when there is a disagreement within the family and threats don't work you kick the other person out.

Alliance clearly is all hugs and rainbows, I bet they even have pyjamas parties during weekends!

It's basically team EG Sweden. Similar sponsors, monster, razer, XMG.
SC:BW has a higher skill ceiling than SC2? SC 64 is where it's at brah.

Being one of the best foreigners does not give him the right to act like an unprofessional whining brat. No one is doubting his skills in sc2, but his immature behavior has time and time again shown he is incapable of being a professional. No sponsors or team would want someone who quits just because he felt like it or insults the community for criticizing his highly questionable antics.
