Quotes from the players from FiFo article:

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.

STX Coach didnt have a high intelligence either

I don't see what more evidence do they need? The screenshots matches /exactly/. Also from the sounds of things, it sounded already like they acknowledge that the things said were probably what their strats were going into game but yet they expect us to believe that they were trying to mentally psych the other person out? That's just ridiculous and from the tone of things sounds like they're covering their behind. You don't deny something by saying "oh it's not true but just in case it's true, here's another excuse to throw at you".


U ever play a game and said that you're going to fast pool someone, only to expand instead?

I don't really care about what the truth is because it doesn't matter. Not right now anyway.

For those ppl who may doubt it, here is the link of one BroadCaster post

He was Broadcasting PGL Season 2 ,i think a lot of ppl here was watching him from Pplive


I'll do a quick rundown of this article:

Basically he did a quick recap of the BO5 series, stating certain things, or lack thereof, as being fishy (no early-game scouting, 1 sunkens to a m&m push, etc.). 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.


I don't think the this broadcaster's words could take us further disproving the so called "mind game theory". His prediction is only based on the chat appeared in first person views which is no different from that of Andy. Both of them could only assume the meanings of the chat because they are actually written in Korean language. Still the "mind game theory" remains questionable given that the chat before the 4th and 5th game matches the actual opening builds in both games.

Someone said it earlier; sports betting. I'm wondering if the STX coach or anyone close to Hwasin/Calm was taking bets on the game.

Ofcourse I know that is not Korean. I meant by that they could not see if it is the part of the mind game.

Both Hwasin and Calm said its a part of the mind game but its acutally sad to see how the chat and the game matches up.

Nope. He's just deliberately trying to stir up confusion.

All the initial accusations had been confirmed. Albeit a bit muddled by the garbage posts in between.

lol, did you guys even watch the games?

The 9min34sec thing is inbedded youtube counting backwards, it's actually 17 secs into the video which is BEFORE game 4. And center barrack 12pool is game4, all drone 1 sunken vs mmf is game5.

I don't even know why some of you are in here for, so obviously clueless
If you can, then do. If I can, I will.
