They are friends and team mates who probably agreed to split the prize money.

Even if their actions are proved true, it's not like anything should be done about it, or any penalization. Because they did win fair and square.


if you think it that way, then you win

as a organizer of such a tournament i wouldnt even invite kor players from the same teams, if possible players with rivalry so the players really fight for the win. its always the same.. i didnt like the yellow vs reach series either cuz they always seemed arranged to me, same for iris vs savior etc. so many games are arranged in the pro scene

no, i just can´t believe it. If they arranged the play they just arrange it BEFORE the match its going on, that dont seem very professional to me and i think that its just a rumor, say that the korean league or an international SC tourney its arranged its a HUGE acusation and need STRONG EVIDENCE, that image its cut in the middle a VOD or a COMPLETE IMAGE its needed for support your words, until the proof show other thing im think that the players ARE NOT GUILTY.
Beat after beat i will become stronger.

For all we know, that picture could have been cleverly arranged/photoshopped. Do you have a picture of the entire pre-loading screen?

This doesn't make sense at all. If they wanted to split the prize money, why wouldn't they just say so beforehand and just play like normal?

I can only imagine they did this because they cbf playing longish games and just wanted to get it over and done with.

Pretty sad if that's how it worked out.

oh yeah.. and what will the public think when people will be aware of this? seriously they've got fans who cheered for them and they tricked everyone I'm really disapointing with this since I liked Hwasin ..Now for me he's only a cheater
But maybe it's korean way of think that I dont understand

I think you're losing perspective. Tournaments like IEST are about giving the fans something to watch. It's a spectator sport. IEST brings in Koreans because they know Koreans are skilled and IEST wants their viewers to watch high-caliber games. Perhaps there is no agreement or contract that players have to sign that would disqualify them, but their actions betray the entire point of the event. Fans want to know who the champion is, not who are the co-champions.
