If he is guilty of fixing matches last year, I really hope that this doesn't go any further than Sky and that those games he played on Day1 were 100% above board. If he'd already backed out of the scheme by the time he played, then I hope it won't hurt the ASL, but it still casts a cloud of suspicion over the tournament. We don't need another league taken down by this shit, you think they'd learn from history. And larva and stork have every right to be furious, I would be if somebody was damaging the credibility of my livelihood in the eyes of their fans.

This hurts the league and the whole scene. I don't want to have seeds of doubt planted in the back of my mind that ANY of the players in the ASL might be throwing games.

Yes, me too. Go away sky, never come back, please uninstall sc and never touch it again.
Also I finally made my mind about Savior streaming again, he made a mistake he regrets it bla bla, I get it, ok, but he should not show his face playing the game ever again, play the game annonymously if he wants, alone in his house, where he can't keep hurting the ppl he damaged in the past, he shouldn't stream by any means, not on afreeca, nor twitch, not anywhere not even talking about accepting donations for it....

Source on 2 other players being questioned? I thought the only player was Sky.

In the articles I have seen, the other two being questioned are members of something like the Korean mafia, a violent gang. At this exact moment, there are no explicit indications that other gamers were involved.

It's almost certainly Sky.

Mong pointed this out, but I think Sky types "gg" twice at the end of the match to signal that he threw.

(Watch the WEGL games where he loses to Sea, and then watch the ASL 5 Eyewater vs Sky game 2)
Just a thought.

he typed gg twice because in top vs bottom (which asl creates for some reason instead of melee/ums), messages automatically go to allies, so they type it again to all chat so they don't look bm to their opponent.

Hmmm, then why did he type it only once vs Shine in ASL 5?
Just a thought.

maybe he noticed and went for all chat there? I'm not the most convinced that he threw the ASL game. Bluestorm game vs Sea is different though. That stargate placement was sooo odd at the time that I was wondering why he put it there. To hide it? It can be shelled after all.

Here's a screenshot of Sky's stream that's been floating around since 2017.

Saw this and wondered why someone was necro'ing a thread like this... then I saw the date.
Now I'm just sad. Hope it's just Sky.

I'm not convinced of the 2x gg thing. Considering how closely fans watch for matchfixing in the post-savior era and how commonly any misplay/weird game is accused of being a throw online, if you were going to signal a throw, you'd do it in some way that was more subtle than a massive red flag that could be easily used to compare to similarly thrown games.
