Calm officially said this according to fighterforum. "I tried to upset him(Hwasin) by saying I can still beat him playing in such strategy. I did not know this mind game would cause this huge misapprehension." Hwasin said "I just replied to Calm with no intention other than for fun. This happens very frequently between us. I just rushed him early because it doesn't really matter who win." yea.. so.. Hwasin really did not take the game seriously, regardless of the fixing issue. | ||

Calm: "It was a mind trick, I was saying that even if I play like that I could still win, it was a taunt. I didn't expect it to cause this kind of misunderstanding." Hwasin: "I played along with his messages but chat like that happens every game [during practice]. The one thing I didn't want was for the games to go long. So I attacked early with the thought that, if it works great, if not, then Calm wins so great." Coach of STX: "Why would we fix a match when it doesn't matter who wins? I don't know where this controversy came from. What happened was two teammates with little experience playing in overseas tournaments were playing light-heartedly. From FiFo article. | ||

What does that have to do with anything? They're playing the exact same game. | ||

I think the coach is referring to the fact that, the game is the same, but tournament organization and rules are different (ex: no chat in Korea) | ||

BTW, can anyone translate what they say in the game 4 VOD when they're waiting for game 5 to start? | ||

So they decided to admit it´s partially true. Calm: "Hey I will beat with only one sunken." Hwasin: "I bet you do lol." A very light-hearted convo, isn´t it ^^. | ||

He mentioned seeing "center barrack" in their game4 pre-game chatting, and that's when he realized that this is an "exhibition" and not the real deal. He also said in the closing paragraph how he didn't wanna tell the crowd what was happening cus, frankly, it's difficult to have to break the news to a crowd of adoring fans. He said he finally came out with it cus 1.) alot of people saw their 1st-person view, and 2.) he was angered by the fact that afterwards people were discussing a "falsified" series with a lot of fanfare and excitement. That and Hwasin used the illegal "gas geyser bug" on JayStar knowing that it's banned by the Korean tournaments. He concluded by saying that all in all, he felt everyone did a good job organizing the event, and that he hopes the viewing public will continue to support IEST and the Chinese StarCraft scene. | ||
