Is Stork losing on purpose? The Korean's official statement is no. Ra says that he is winning easily and I think he is implying that he is winning legitimately via skill. Now whether or not they are totally fucking with our minds I have no idea.

And I'm pretty sure stork is throwing games. Stork is clearly the better player, and he just really wants to avoid the koreans.


It's his national duty to fix up the brackets. This is done all the time in all kinds of sports. It's not that he fears Hwasin. He should rather fear Savior. And if he gets second he avoids an early Hwasin and a non-Korean medal and instead plays Savior in the semis.

Yeah it's no big deal to me if he manages to touch up the brackets a little so korea gets top 3, but the way this turned out it looks so clumsy and embarrassing for stork

I agree, Stork should be banned for life from any Starcraft competition, so other players will learn the spirit of the game :fair play, not this bull...

Why would they admit they are throwing the game, that's stupid. ra is a good player, but he's getting a little too full of himself... "winning easily?" That should be enough reason.

exactly. Stork is doint it very... aesthestically.... spelling right?

Ra could also be losing on purpose.

I do understand why people are mad at Stork for losing (intentioanlly) and I'm kind of mad at him,
but I also understand this kid because Korea? the culture is a bit different there... If Stork just gave up and went against Hwasin, the fans in Korea would make fun of Stork... or something. When it comes to WCG Koreans try their best for their country to win, not themselves. Even though they might not want to follow these rules, they would be publicly dissed? for being selfish. I'm sure Stork isn't having so much fun going on this infinite circlde of matches.

If one does view this whole WCG as a country Vs country, there is no reason for one to hate Stork. Stork is just doing the right thing for his country to win.
More anger plz-

Why only Stork? Ra does the same thing.

Then Ex and Fire(?) advances.


Anyway, I don't see how they can prove Stork or Ra loses on purpose.

stork is being the faggot here. i can only hope that ex and ra agreed on ra losing every game against ex as long as stork intentionally loses against him. i mean normally the winner of ex and ra would advance, so the better player takes it. but with this shit ex basically has 0 chance of advancing unless he beats stork. in this case, ra and ex would only play a real game when stork played real against ra, to let the better player advance and for good sportsmanship. this is totally different from what stork is doing.

What the hell r u talking about? If ra beats ex, ra advances in first place. If he loses, its another tie break.

And dont give me this "lack of proof" bullshit. There is no way ra could beat stork, and definately not 2 games ina row!
These sites might be of more use than a StarCraft site, where the majority of posters look on WCIII as the dense misformed fetus produced during Blizzards latest miscarrige.

Obviously it's all just speculation right now, but I really don't see any reason to trust either of them on this subject.

In any event, thanks for the updates, mnm.

If Ra says he is winning easily against Stork, I think he is implying that Stork is throwing games actually (not being cocky). Stork has one of the most solid PvP's in the world. He won't lose 3-0 to a random foreigner. Ra isn't that strong.

Only way koreans can take top3 spots is if Stork takes 2nd in this group.

If Stork admits to throwing games they will probably disqualify him for that. Now, that will be embarrassing. And if he eliminates Hwasin, then Korean fans will get angry. That will be viewed as unsportsmanlike.


It's not illegal to go 24 nexus and it's not illegal to lose.


This is only embarrassing for WCG.

why is everyone so angry? i for one find it very entertaining, maybe they should try ex>stork, stork>ra, ra>ex for once, just to have a little more variety. lol...

of course, i'm actually hoping that both ex and ra will cheese stork and eliminate him for the annoying bracket fixing that koreans do every year, but that's a dream that will never come true...
Brood War is alive and well.
