By the way if Rekrul is lying he deserves to be banned. However I cannot think of a decent reason for him to actually lie. He has nothing to gain and could lose his entire reputation here. (OK he may not give a shit about his reputation but its defiantly more than nothing.)

Basically either Rekrul is telling the truth or he is a far bigger asshole than anyone give him credit.

Shut up, seriously. If you're literally getting this mad over this, you're retarded.

The difference is that even if people are caught using steroids in baseball etc. those sports will still be alive. If this gets out the entire industry suffers a tremendous amount due its size. Just look at the War3 progaming scene after the whole map-fixing scandal.

The fomos forum seems to have talked about it for quite a bit, although I couldn't find the original thread. From what I can tell, a person just came in and just posted things accusing certain players (UpMagic, Sangho, Luxury was a few that was named, apparently) of match fixing.

You know how I always went around saying progamers started losing because the fame and money got them distracted by girls / alcohol etc?

I was wrong.


I would actually argue that you aren't wrong. It's hard to say that Savior's "slump" was justified simply by throwing away matches. Think of it on the side of the Betting House -- Savior slumping doesn't do the betting house much good, as people will now expect Savior to lose more and more. It's also unlikely that people will continue betting on Savior, in which case, the Betting house would actually want Savior to win at certain points.

At best, the players threw away a few games, not enough to be "in a slump" (ie, anything that can be remotely predictable isn't too good for the betting house, unless they can "pay" players to overcome those expectations).

So yeah, i wouldn't say the original explanation changes at all -- you're likely "not wrong" about this, although selling a game or two could have easily lead to the other.

most forms of gambling including sportsbetting are illegal in korea

Yes, but what would the progamer get in trouble for? They weren't the ones gambling.


They were the ones that caused a lot of people to make a lot of money illegally

If this were true I feel like the Korean media would be eating it up.

I mean, I'm sure this information will spread (true or not) in a matter of time.
