Who knows?
And also, there is an SBS one that we couldn't get a raw for, but this is how it goes, since it has some information that the three others don't.
서울중앙지검 첨단 범죄수사 2부는 스타크래프트 게이머들을 매수해 승부를 조작한 뒤 불법 도박사이트에서 거액의 배당금을 챙긴 혐의로 25살 박모 씨를 구속기소했습니다.
The Seoul Central District Prosecutor's Office arrested Mr. Park for fixing progaming matches and making profits from illegal betting sites.
또 게이머들에게 승부 조작에 가담하도록 연결해 준 현직 프로게이머 2명을 불구속기소하고 승부를 조작해준 게이머 6명은 벌금 200만~500만원에 약식기소했습니다.
Also, two progamers that connected Mr. Park to other progamers were prosecuted without arrest, and 6 progamers that participated in match fixing were fined from $2000~$5000.
게이머 양성학원 운영자인 박 씨는 지명수배된 조직폭력배 김모 씨와 함께 지난해 9월부터 올 2월까지 경기에 출전하는 게이머들에게 건당 200만에서 650만원씩을 주고 경기에서 고의로 지도록 한 혐의를 받고 있습니다.
Mr. Park, who owned a gaming academy, worked with Mr. Kim, a wanted organized gang member, to fix progaming matches between September of last year to February of this year by giving progamers $2000~$6500 to lose their matches.

Or maybe they meant that the player purposely let his opponent scout his build (or placed his buildings/units in a way that would make it easier to scout). Or maybe it was just the editorial staff being a bit hazy at MBC :/

Wow they showed go.go in the video. GG.
|
What game was it they were showing?
rofl nevermind I suck and didn't recognize it as go.go vs Light

Did they just get fines!? Sounds like korea is a bit soft on stuff like this..
|
i wonder how did gogo rigged the game by
destroying bisu 2 times in OSL trying to win/lose in the re-re-re-rematch

This ruins their reputation and their esports careers for good. They all spent 3+ years of 10-12 hours a day on this. Most of them didn't finish highschool, or get any work experience meanwhile, and now they will be shunned by the one field they dedicated so many years on (including possible followup jobs in coaching/broadcasting).

The weird part wasn't how can they communicate, it was that talking to your opponent like that means he's gotta be in on the scam.
Since it only takes 1 to lose, and not all players were involved in the match throwing scam, this wouldn't have worked. Besides, if you were running this scam, why would you pay 2 players to collaborate on 1 of them losing when you only need to pay off 1 to lose.
As such, this statement could have meant letting your opponent scout you to see your build on purpose, and then have it countered and lose.

Mr. Ma proves he's more than just a starcraft nerd. He's fking spectacular in everything he does, taking by surprise his opponents(also his fanboys lol).

Truly, sAviOr's slump is just phenomenal.

The strange thing is Gogo would most likely have lost to light anyway? :/

Bisu not so much. Agree with the rest thou. Bisu still plays man. And he has a lot of fans, and propably more female fans than savior ever had.

Excuse me if I've missed out on another thread that told us this but who could Mr. Jung be? i searched up progamers with jung as surname and got thezerg, fantasy and haran. thezerg and haran seems impossible, and if its fantasy there's a bit of trouble for skt... If that's the case, Oov (perhaps even Boxer) might immediately resign. That's more than just "a bit of trouble". On the other hand, Fantasy is still playing in the PL normally and shows no hint of trouble in his winner interviews. I doubt he is under investigation. Face it, if even Justin can afford to throw what few games that were allocated to him, why not thezerg or haran?
I'm pretty sure I've already seen thezerg listed in one of these threads

damn .. funny and sad at the same time .. the next scandal will be steroids and/or players committing adultery or having sex scandals .. and that will make SC pro scene a true SPORT .. :D
the sad part is MA JAE YOON ..

OMG. URR SOOO RIGHTTT... would players be paid to lose games even though they suck/slumping? greedy go.go trying to earn a few bucks here and there : S

Based on his cyworld msgs, go.go's fans are mostly sympathetic, upset but sympathetic. I guess you have idiots like go.go trying to make a fast buck and then you have jackasses like Savior who actually helped organise this match-fixing ring by bringing more players into the fold.
go.go will probably get away with a hefty fine. Savior I'm expecting a suspended jail sentence.

either way all of these people will probably be never allowed back into the e-sports industry.
