Its a bit dishonest, whatever the relevance of ladder, its Starcraft, and your supposed to win by playing Starcraft, not by playing rock paper scissors.
Maybe choya should try for a pro RPS league.

I guess it is a scandal every time doesn't try their best or experiments with new strategies on the ladder too, since they weren't trying to do everything they could to give themselves the highest chance to win.

What? Really? Try reading the quote from Nazgul in the OP. This is a scandal because while it may seem innocent, it is still abusing the system.

I really don't understand why a player who is already in the biggest SC2 tournament would try to mess around like this. If he feels like playing rock paper scissors, I'm sure there's a custom map for that. If he feels like playing Starcraft, then he can stick to ladder games.
If the quarter was in your right hand, that would've been micro

coming to you next week, the gsl season 4 final where our two players will pause the game 15 seconds after it starts, then play rps in a bo7 to determine who wins 85k USD!

not comparable? perhaps, but seriously this kid is trying to game the system since you retardedly gain way more than you lose in terms of points subsequent to a win or loss respectively.

I've seen people do this kind of stuff at MTG pro quals. It's not like they wont do it if you turn a blind eye.
Those small maps were like a boxing match in a phone booth.

Wow, those topics are becoming more and more silly every day. Who the hell cares about a guy that does such things on ladder. What is so bad about it? It is his account, he can do whatever he want with it.

He represents more than himself. He represents his team, sponsors and E-sports in general. He can't do whatever he wants. He should be acting professional...at the very least not abuse a system which some leagues and tournies use to rate players. He is code S... yes. Is he gonna win GSL? Nope... People need other tourneys and leagues to play in to have a chance to win some cash

Its funny I was actually playing Choya the other day.

I opened with scissors, with the view of later transitioning into paper. It was just a shame that he hard countered my opener with rock before my late game plans were able to unfold...



...Drumroll please...

This thread is proof that TL.Net consists of a bunch of drama queens.

Quoting the only post that actually matters in this thread:
