People keep mentioning Protoss honor like this would be the first Protoss match-fixer. Wasn't Chalrenge in the original batch of progamers who got banned?

It seems I was wrong about this. Sorry, Chalrenge, my error!
May the BeSt man win.

Here's my two cents. AfreecaTV talked to the police. We know that from the official ASL statement. Since no one else has gone dark so far, I am guessing that at least everyone currently remaining in the ASL is safe. Also, from all the articles, it seems that the activities were organized in the greater Pusan area (with offices moving from place to place periodically to avoid the police), so it seems very unlikely that any gamer living outside that area was involved.

Chalrenge? Not that I can remember... certainly Liquipedia doesn't have him as nuked or mention it anywhere.

I think Sky (as a player) is a pretty big loss. You seem to forget that in these coming years, very many of the players born in the range of 88-90 HAVE to go to the army. At this moment we barely have a big enough of a player base to provide variation in who gets to qualify for an ASL. Sky has for the last two months improved a lot - staying around top 15 in the ELO rankings. He is still kinda young, being born in 94. Who knows how much more he could have improved before he had to go to military? And for those who pay close attention, he is also the only protoss users who was not known back in kespa days that is able to stay competitive. Stuff like that actually matters, for those who care about bw mantaining relevance for the future.

I feel like you are right, I remember Chalrenge being one of the few caught a long time ago too if I am not mistaken lol

There was 11 players caught involved in the match fixing scandal and all banned from kespa. All were zerg and terran. I'm sure it doesnt mean much, but is a weird coincidence.

Of course, because Protoss players couldn`t drop games, because they couldn`t win any. Just kidding.

People who say Sky sucked obviously didn't watch him play much. His style was highly micro intensive, he was always underrated and he was the most entertaining Protoss player I've ever watched play the game.
Sadly.. Mini is now my new favorite.
