personally, i feel that if this was such a significant problem, the coach(es) should have addressed it before it became an issue, not after. how many matches have been played in the booths? i'm sure there's frequently a lot of screaming... if it was heard, it should have been brought up earlier, not now that this supposed "ear hack" has happened.

i know there have been past instances of this happening, but i'm referring to these specific booths and whatever grievances they might have had with them. the fact that this is only brought up after such a significant match just seems questionable, to me.

Didn't FlaSh do this against Leta as well?
Edit- I couldn;t find anything when I searched but wasn't there some controversy when leta *I think* double proxy factories in a 5th set and the crowd when nuts and Flash walked right to it. I think it was FlaSh... damn memory. But anyway, I wouldn't be surprised; if you hear the crowd go nuts what are you gonna do, move in the opposite direction?

That was Leta who was accused of looking at the crowd vs fOrGG. fOrGG went proxy 2fac which Leta scouted very shortly after and was accused of cheating by KT coaches (though there was not enough evidence and the match resumed). Leta was also suspected in looking at the audience for singals several other times (like against Movie). There was also a seperate incident with Light and Flash on MBC with Flash going 14CC and Light going 2 fac, where Flash saw someone waving their arms, though it was after he already scouted Light (and saw no expo, 2 marines w/ no vults on the ramp). He barely held it off with scv/vult micro.

Also, to my knowledge, there have not been accusations of being able to hear the crowd from these booths, even on much louder sets (ACE,Boxer, jd/flash, etc). And again, assuming the booth was defective somehow, how come the other MBC players didn't report that they were able to hear the crowd that night (even though if true this would have been an unfair advantage for all those sets). As far as I'm concerned, this claim by coach Ha is absurd.

I knew I didn't like that MBC coach. He's the only one who wears his team's uniform instead of a suit. Also, he's fat and ugly.

i looked at the vod again and when flash scouts down, the audience starts getting a little louder.. and then flash arcs up and discovers the barrack.

two things;
1. the audience wasn't that loud
2. haven't audience screamed for before when they pan it on certain players? so flash wouldn't have "known" that the audience noise was in direct regards to his scouting.. the camera man could have panned it on another player and the audience could have been going wild over him

knowing flash, i believe that he would have scouted the proxy either way.

I rewatched the video many times and I can say that the first scv that Flash sent out is a scouting for proxy scv rather than going to your opponent's main scv.

Reason behind it is the path that the scv took.

But if Flash is just sending his scv to Light's main...(PS: I can spell PATH)

Therefore, I can conclude that scv is scouting for proxy.
And where are the good spots to proxy, I think Flash knows...

If you send an scv straight to the opponent base, it will go down the ramp to the BLACK area, and go back up on the large ramp to the middle =.=''

Oh, yeah...

Well, that still proves that the scv a scouting for proxy and Flash would sooner or later find that proxy rak.

Um there was an incident with Flash and someone else, I forgot who. Flash said he saw someone waving at him and he changed directions to scout or something. He freely admitted that he changed his shit after he won. I think this was the same thing, but this time, the stakes are bigger so flash didn't want to admit it. Btw,if flash DID watch the replay of light vs skyhigh, he would be scouting Light's sky-high proxy location first before going to the other location. Instead, flash made a straight run upwards.

They fixed this problem to a point where the players almost cant see anything bar someone waving their arms like crazy, the booth has alot of light where outside has very little creating almost a one way mirror, also this is about hearing the audience not seeing them
2 things about this situation, rewatching the vod the commentators microphones are louder than the crowd and even if flash heard them its not his fault
