This has been something on my mind for awhile now and I was wondering if anyone "in the know" could shed some light on the situation.

Will Luxury be coming back to play for KT in the 5th round and finals? Has there been any speculation?

If not, will it ever be officially announced or is he just "going to be sick" forever? That seems pretty retarded :/. (And yes, I'm aware that he probably cheated, I just want to know if anyone knows anything about the situation)

I don't have any information on the topic, but my guess is his case is still being investigated and nothing will change until that's done.

going across the lists, the most common ones suspected were:

savior, upmagic, sangho, yellow[arnc], luxury, bifrost[name], with CJ/eSTRO most strongly hinted at having more players involved.

i remember ppl at fomos.kr were making fun of sangho coming back to A team after the demotion

they were like all those bad moves/losses... those were done not by purpose but by his lack of skills... lulz

I liked luxury. He was such a beAst when he didn't lose on purpose ...
I remember him beating Flash and stomping Kal ( all the "Kal is so great at PvZ" bandwagon went MIA after the games lol ).
