He bodied Sea the other day, as a Sea fan but a bigger Bisu fan I was happy, but also sad at the same time, it looked like Sea didn't even have a chance. | ||

You know I really didn't want to post in this thread, but here I am. He did a lot of harm not only to the scene (look at what map-fixing did to WCIII in Korea), but to all the players he got on board with the scandal. Something tells me that you weren't around for all those threads with regards to the court case and when the CJ Coach heard rumors and approached SaviOr only to be lied to. There are a lot and I do mean a lot of threads on it and it did have an impact like everything else. It's all about what have you done for me lately and in all honesty he hasn't done much. | ||

We are not forgiving Savior because he is not convincing me he has changed for the better. Ignoring his prominent role in match-fixing, let me list all the dumb things Savior has done since his debut in Afreeca, besides his general unrepentant attitude:
By the way, Lee Seung Won stated that MBC Game did not have to disband but was forced to due to the channel's director. Apparently MBC Game was still pretty well off at the time compared to some other MBC channels, but the director told the channel to stop doing special events that were the main source of channel's income, then when MBC Game started losing money because of it, used it as excuse to replace it with MBC Music. Thought I should mention this tidbit since this seems to be information not widely known. Still doesn't change Savior nearly killed the Korean e-sported industry and is unrepentant about it. Is using Pirated Starcraft really that bad? lol? | ||

I do not buy the idea that other players wouldn't be matchfixing, if not Savior. It isn't like he blackmailed them into doing it, right? They were partners in crime.

I am not saying the Savior should be forgiven, but the assertion that he somehow single-handedly killed broodwar seems farfetched, and short-sighted argument. In my opinion its a harmful attitude in general. In the aftermath Kespa actually started taking actions that would have counteracted match fixing (for which I seem to remember hearing accounts that activities had been going on before saviors involvement). Wouldn't it be more productive to learn from the flaws in the original system? If the bw scene is going to recover and grow again I think it really needs to become more self aware that there was blame to spread around the scene for those events. If one bad egg can really kill such a long running organization, there are surely other problems that need to be looked at. This may be an extremely western attitude, but I also feel the fact that Savior keeps sticking around is testament to him genuinely caring about bw. If the hatred against him is as intense in Korea as it is on teamliquid (and since everyone always refers to culture when discussing savior, i assume it must be even stronger) wouldn't it be so much easier for him to just leave? Literally anything he does that involves the game will send people into a rage. Should he remain banned from Korean tournaments? Yes. But I for one can't get behind this anger that he is wrong for some individuals still wanting to support him and see him play. Its an extremely prevalent, toxic attitude, and reason itself to not want to associate with the scene. edit: I'd just like to add that I hope there isnt a backlash against movie...this seems like a good opportunity, when there are so few for ex-kespa pros at the moment. | ||

The only ones I have seen are ones where the negative attention just more attention to the thing they wanted boycotted and therefore more people interested in the thing that was supposed to be boycotted. | ||
