Gotta love when nerds say they'll fight each other in real life lol.Unless Nerchio never said that and Kane just trying to stir the pot. Not like NaNiwa is a hacker or anything if you don't like him that much just squelch him and beat him in Sc2.
JD, need I say more? :D

And a majority of fans focus on either one or the other as though they were two separate, distinct parts. I believe this is a flawed simplification of who or what Naniwa is.


yet this article is a long drawn out simplification of it. all it does is note all of his accomplishments while also mentioning all of his controversies. why was this even written? this is something youd find in his liquipedia page..

I don't know if Luis Suarez has a history of jumping in and out of retirement, but there are some similarities there.

Hmm pretty good. Lacks the "I'm a star" factor though.

Naniwa definitely has a short temper. It seems to me that because of his reputation, he is quickly demonized for any action that could be perceived as negative. Is it really that BM to complain about stream cheating or soundproofing when there is a legitimate issue? I love Naniwa for his raw talent, his ability to pick up the game seemingly without any effort. I love NaNiwa for being the only foreigner to consistently compete with the top Koreans. I love NaNiwa for beating MVP AND Nestea in macro games when they were both seemingly invincible. I love him for his acerbic wit and scathing commentary. He wears his heart on his sleeve, sure, but some people might say that trait is commendable. You certainly can't accuse him of being dishonest. I'm glad he's back. Gogo NaNiwa fighting!
Now witness their attempts to fly from tree to tree. Notice they do not so much fly as plummet.

The Russian stream had 0 delay beyond standard Twitch delay. If they didn't, I wouldn't have removed them.

You were told like billion times that there was a delay but you are still writing everywhere that it was not. What is the goal of it? You're not the usual forum guy like some people here, you're the org who should be responsible for your own words. Are you trying to acquit your behavior when you kicked casters without any particular reason, just because NaNiwa wanted that to happen or are there any other reasons for that?
Here are the proofs if someone doesn't believe hundreds of russian viewers yet: VOD timing, where you can easily see, that there is a delay set in a Twitch panel. You can see that it is set to 2 minutes, which actually means that real delay was close to 3 mins (impossible to say exactly) due to standart Twitch encoding delay (And again: I agree that it was a bit less than on other streams - a minute or maybe even two - and blablabla, but that's not as important here as the fact that there was a delay big enough to prevent any sort of cheeting).
As for me, it's a shame that orgs of the biggest StarCraft 2 tournament sponsored by Blizzard are behaving in such a way. Please stop blaming casters left and right in every situation possible, it becomes too popular nowadays. You'd better deal with some players' manners...
