But never the less i will come back stronger eventually so i guess all i ask is that you remember that im human too ^^ As of right now in terms of my own plans there's korea plans and there's living on my own in sweden plans aswell both of which i find nice because i really feel i need a change in my life right now so that i can continue gaming alot of people really think its easy to be a foreigner pro and i guess this bothers me a litlte bit, sure if you dont care about results and you only want to stream then its a piece of cake but if you really want to win and try to better your game all the time it can be super frustrating when you have subpar practice possibilitys compared to the korean players who you have to play in tournaments. basically i guess all im saying is that i feel alot of pressure and stress etc etc. but oh well ill find a way to cope ! Sorry for saying so many different things in this post but my head is a mess right now , I do however want you guys to know that i check this thread quite regularly and i do appriciate your support
This might be an explanation for the games yesterday, I guess there are just other things going on inside his head than SC 2.
Although I gotta say that it´s probably pretty depressing for a player of Naniwas calibre (character) if there is almost zero chance to win a tournament that is stacked with the best players. :-/ He could try, but let´s face it: it´s unlikely that Naniwa defeats players like TaeJa, Innovation, Soulkey, sOs, Rain... in a Bo 5. Some players are "satisfied" if they reach Ro8 along with a bunch of koreans. But Nani wants to be the best, not the second or even third. He wants to be #1.
Edit: just noticed this has been postet already. sry.
He was obviously not playing like himself yesterday. I think we all know Naniwa is capable of much much better and I'm sure he will be back in form soon once he gets through his personal issues.

Phew this made me calm down Have been refreshing twitter/tv6blog/this thread like crazy to get any info what so ever ^^
Hopefully Nani has started to clear whatever it was he had trouble with and can come back to his former self
With that said, Ta det lungt och kom ihåg vem som är kung
I wonder when NaNiwa will try to qualify for E-sport sm. He said that he definately didn't want to lose the Swedish Championship title aslong as he is active so I hope he start trying if he doesn't stop playing(Please don't)

It seems like he is interested in League of Legends atm.
Recent tweets include asking a super popular jungle streamer to play Kha'zix (Nightblu) and cheering for TSM in their LCS game today. (which they lost)

What you say is true, but I really don't think he will quit sc2 for LoL, wouldn't make sense. Though I am happy that he have accepted MOBA's better these days
