Nah more like Kanye West. Highly controversial in the past years but still brilliant. At least in my opinion.

It won't happen. He's too popular. And it wasn't even THAT bad.

Are you really expecting rules to be enforced against a player who'll bring tons of viewer ? (it could be nani or anyone for that matter, you can be pretty sure double standard will be applied)
Zest fanboy.

It's not like any of this is unprovoked. It's pretty unsportsmanlike to put money up for people to beat each other up, and to generally talk shit about nani in the first place, saying stuff like "he'll get boo'd into retirement".

If anything I'd expect both to get a slap for it.


Not that any of this matters because we're getting on the hype train and there IS NO BRAKES

It must be desperate times for Starcraft, if the hero/villain tag has to be placed on a player, and made into an article. Awful. Not sure if it is a slippery slope of regression for Starcraft or this site. Probably both.

Many would argue both. Especially the first one in my eyes. I haven't been around long enought to truely say anything about the second, but I do think this article was super unneccissary.

Necessary or not, I wouldn't be surprised if lichter and stuchiu are running some kind of conspiracy and we're all merely pawns.

I wish Naniwa had never come back to Starcraft.


Don't worry, he's bound to get boo'd into retirement again soon enough


This may be true.... but at least he will make it to Premier....

You on the other hand.... have fun qualifying for challenger over and over again.


I'd rather be a good person and a bad player than a shitty person and a good player. Also, I'd MUCH rather be a good person and a shitty player than a shitty player AND an irrelevant fanboy


a "good person" lol. that would require a social iq above average mr. internet nerd. ur self proclaimed manners while insulting another pro gamer and flaming some guy back on a forum is so fake and pathetic its really sad to watch. plz stop embarrassing urself thx.

Oh c'mon. It's just fun humor on one of the most controversial SC2 players of all time. Plus, it helps to inform people that Naniwa is back from retirement.

And the Starcraft/E-sports scene has always been a sucker for player/team drama. People like seeing rage, insults, IRL fights between two scrawny players, etc.

Another possibility is that the author just learned of the word "pariah" and decided to attach it to some rude guy playing video games. I can't blame him, "pariah" is a cool word.

Can you even be DQed for something you do that's not related to WCS?
