TL needs to take immediate action as I believe it's responsible for letting this get out of control. TL is one of the largest esports media outlets and needs to act as such. Needless to say, this needs to be handled.

Whether or not these accusations are true, this ought to be private matters and not a public spotlight that makes a mockery of the esports scene. It makes everyone look bad, regardless of involvement in cheating.

Boxer wouldn't condone that shit are you serious? he would bitch slap anyone who would cheat in the SlayerS house, lol. SlayerS is one of the teams that I know for sure has nothing to do with this, since Boxer and Cella would not allow that kind of shit, especially Boxer since he has a sense of pro-gaming and pride for the game, hard to explain but I know he wouldn't allow that.


Boxer started crying for the heart and soul of pro-gaming- while being interviewed- when he was asked to comment about Savior's scandal.

I'm quite sure he wouldn't allow anything underhanded to take place in the SlayerS house. Surely you remember how swiftly he dealt with Coca (and that was relatively minor), and how betrayed and dishonored he felt.

That's not to say that no Korean pro-gamers would ever give in to the pressures of cheating, or that hacking could only be a foreigner problem, but we obviously need plenty of evidence before we start pointing fingers and throwing people under the bus.

Exactly my point. People like Boxer would never fall for this shit and would outright kick anyone who would get involved in stuff like that. That's why this is unthinkable for me, that this kind of shit would happen, even in other progamers houses.

There was no running back and forth looking at other people's screens, holy shit. How do you make this stuff up?


Well like I said they didn't make sense to me. If this is what's going on then this is MLG's fault because from what I've seen in pcitures there are dozens of people surrounding the players whenever they play off-stage so this is impossible to avoid.

I also don't see what the issue is since I'm sure any top pros knows everything Leenock would be saying while watching a game in a scenario like that. Then I'm also sure it's extremely noisy plus headphones so how much can they really hear...?

Thank you! Straight from the horse's mouth. Jinro's been in Korea for eternity and he's seen the ups (most successful foreigner runs in GSL) and downs (oGs disbanding). If he doubts it after being there, I don't think we have reason to believe a guy who talked to a guy who made a statement that sounded like a joke that cheating is some sort of widespread practice.


Jinro himself would tell you he hasn't been in all the other team houses, why are you taking his post as proof that this isn't going on? At this point, it's more evidence to the contrary but it's a bit ridiculous you're pointing to one person's post as proof as why we shouldn't pay attention to someone making a serious accusation


Well, now we know for sure oGs didn't cheat. On top of that, I think the EG guys would have something to say if slayers was running around and cheating (I have a hard time imagining Boxer encouraging cheating in the first place).

I don't know about you, but that's conclusive enough to for me to assume that it's not widespread at all, if existent. When Taeja was on slayers before liquid, he'd win a whole buttload of online stuff. He wouldn't be capable of doing that if people were hacking and cheating left and right.


I do believe Jinro, but I'm reserving judgement until Diamond comes out with whatever he knows, etc.

I think you mistaken the word condone for condemn. Condone = accept. And I feel you man, Its like it does not require explanation in Boxer's case, he just can't do or accept that shit.



Yeah wrong word.

I will just note that having anyone standing behind you making even "broad" comments about the game can be more often helpful than not depending on what was said.



I was replying to the overexaggeration and general spread of misinformation, nothing else.

People who think that cheating doesn't occur in tournaments or pro houses are really naive. A good example of this happening years ago occured in WC3 years ago when Sky blatantly broke the rules and flat out cheated against GoStop at WCG, the biggest tournament of the year.

So if all what was said that there was some sharing of helpful information although he didn't actually see the screen of the other player it makes even less sense to even bring something like this up.

Not sure if you're trolling or what but there is no way this will be bigger than that.


I'm damn serious. You follow this for the next few days, and wait for my PM saying I told you so.


You're also damn retarded then.

however, if players do indeed have court appearances, get fined, and serve community service I'll send you that PM in a heartbeat.

Yeah I honestly have no idea, it's not like I'm ever at other houses, especially not during tournaments --- I had just assumed that we were past that stage.


Please tell me it never happened in the oGs house.

This could have been a rumor started by one Korean player. Foreign coaches and players, having no direct contact and insight to the Korean teams, would let these rumors fester and spread among each other

Spades was a person who tried to be a pro, this is not a big deal. He should be crucified if he is found hacking yes, but this will not be a goodby e-sports. Savior was good at bw, like very very good for awhile, spades (no offense to him) has never been a top tier terran.

Now if a top player like drg/nestea/idra/stephano/mvp/mma/mc/etc/etc were caught cheating that would be a WAY bigger deal then spades. Not only have all those players won championships, but they are very popular and would be insane if one of them did. Spades who in bw hacked, who again was never a top tier foreigner or even that popular of a foreigner isn't a big deal.
When I think of something else, something will go here

If anything it is the flaw of the MLG tournament setup. When the playing area is that close to those that are viewing firsthand there is definite potential for a viewer to sneak in some help to the player. And I'm saying "viewer" because it can range from a Korean pro to an average bystander. I know many pros have complained about being too close to the people watching behind their backs.
