Such a different naniwa from just a year ago. He is learning so much and I am sure he will do just fine in the near future. I have waited for him to succeed in Code S for more than a year now, and today was such a relief.
Your rewriting history/dont know what your talking about. Naniwa also througth (1 year ago) koreans were much better. |

| You can say whatever you want about stats but fact is Naniwa got first in a group of solid Code S players with Puzzle, MVP and Ryung, which is not something many people would be able to do. |

Really like Naniwa's responses. Seems much more mature than what I'd seen and heard previously.
Extremely happy to hear Mvp might have a clue about what is going on with his health. Hopefully he can get it fixed and back into form. |

| why people say mvp was in a slump??? last gsl season he went to ro16 and in his 2nd group went 1-2. Losing to semifinalist of GSL, and almost finalist gumiho. Reminds me when people say to nestea that he is in a slump, and nestea saying that he thinks he is not in a slump. |

He played well today so he justified it I guess.
As you said it's not his fault, and if he choose not to accept the seed GOM would give it to another foreigner anyway. So why decline? ^_^
Decline it so Stephano can get it |

I'm pretty sure the reason Stephano didn't get it was because he wouldn't go to Korea anyway. I thought he' s stated that he doesn't want to go to Korea when he can make more money abroad. |

Stephano would probably be the first and only foreigner to win a GSL.

It seems to be trendy, see IdrA. However i agree with you. Still this interview he answered nicely and you can only admit he's playing great. Maybe one day i will cheer for him but not yet. Also, i really liked both interviews. Hopefully Mvp will recover in the future.
He also remains professional when representing his team at major events, which is respectable.
Do you mean the "fuck off" to Huk after the Hallu VRs incident? Or the flinging the headphones down and breaking a key off his keyboard? Or the 6pools vs aLive? Or the constant, constant balance whine? Or the refusal to shake hands with Cruncher? Or the vulgar gesture to MC at MLG Columbus last year, in front of a whole crowd? _____________________ Anyway, glad to see that MVP is back - he might not be the best any more, but he could become a contender. Good luck with the disks!
I couldn't disagree more. In an interview with someone, IdrA clearly stated that he just likes to play along with all the shit talking. Just friendly shit talking.

That doesn't make what IdrA does professional though (since we are talking about professionalism here). I mean, if I shout, "Fuck you!" across the room even jokingly at, say, one of my coworkers in front of a customer, that'd still be seen as totally unprofessional. Even if it's done in good humor and even if my boss doesn't care, it's still not something I should be doing because it promotes a bad image of my company. |

I like him because, to me, he seems like someone that's extremely motivated and focused on the game, but who sometimes does stupid stuff that he later realizes was stupid. I haven't been following him since Warcraft days, so I don't know what he was like then, but in SC2 he just seems a bit awkward, like he comes off worse than he intends. I don't know, I could be wrong, but I used to be like that when I was younger (hell, when I was his age) -- I'd say things that (I later realized) sounded really mean and rude, but I totally didn't have that intention, I was just clueless and awkward. I kind of see something similar in him, so I sympathize, and I hope that he continues to grow and mature personally as he keeps getting better at the game. I mean, look at this interview for example -- what part of it seems childish to you? He sounds fairly mild and modest to me, acknowledging that he's earned a bad reputation and that he didn't really deserve a Code S seed, but is just trying to play his best although he has a lot to learn. Eh, I don't know -- it's fine to not like the guy, but I don't really get the near-hatred that some people refuse to give up on. I know it's just the forums and people just like to talk and exaggerate, but still. Maybe if I had followed the Warcraft scene I'd get it more. At any rate, hopefully Nani keeps playing well and growing up and doesn't do anything to earn more of a bad image.
Do you see what he wrote on TL last week that got him temp banned?
did you know IdrA banned like 3-5 times on TL.(not temp)
Summary: I don't like naniwa because the way he acts. IdrA isn't nearly as bad as naniwa in my opinion. Still don't like idra, either.
Can you give some examples if this bad behavior? The only 'BM' thing I can think of is the probe rush but that has been talked to death already and I don't think it was a big deal.
Like I posted before. http://i.imgur.com/LtMEu.png and that incident when he called MLG a joke on the mainstage AT the tournament. There are tons of examples but i'm not going to waste my time finding all the screenshots. It's really bizarre to me that people turn a blindeye to all of the shit he does just because hes a foreigner from europe. If he was American, i'd bet europeans would hate him.
To be fair it is incredibly difficult not to just burst with anger at the average now-it-all bronze leaguers. |

An adult should still be able to control himself. Naniwa acts so childish at times, makes it hard to cheer for him but I'm very happy he got into Ro16, and in a convincing manner as well. |

By the standards he set for himself, he is indeed slumping. This is the guy who spent 4-5 months during the latter half of 2011 absolutely annihilating everyone in the world. Ro16 GSL and whatnot isn't where MVP should be. |

The customer would probably be smart enough to know that you are joking. That will make him or her laugh, which will make you funny, thus bring in more customers. Customers have money.

True, makes me wonder what to consider slump for each player 
Although i dont think losing to semifinalist of gsl is a slump
Its like Nestea knocking Mvp out of tournament and saying yeah, Mvp is slumping...Last edit: 2012-04-14 09:03:26 |

I highly doubt stephano could win a GSL. He's good but not that good.
On topic congratulations to naniwa, was really surprised to see he made it out of his group, let alone first. Very well done ^^. |

Cervical disc? That's the neck, right? (at first I thought cervix lol)
Seems a bit odd that two progamers would both have neurological problems like that. |
