I guess you might be right, Shake, though I don't see how troll dancing has anything to do with it...I mean...post-TD dancing from football players? | ||

In both situations someone really didnt want to play the game since it had no influence on outcomes of the respective tournaments and things beyond so they dont try. IMO what naniwa did was worse since he didnt even try to have fun with it while dig and crs are smiling and laughing about it. | ||

I guess nothing similar to this has really happened but it's kind of annoying that people are being like "I lost all respect for these teams!." "I hope they get banned forever!" It is a bit silly though lol. | ||

It's sort of comparable to the two GSL players that got banned for a short time after they decided to match fix. (was that CoCa?) | ||

Yeah, was thinking this. Is it Curse and Dig's fault that the structure is such that the result of this game is inconsequential? Nope. So it comes down to if they should value the current tourney more than the season 2 finals... Would it hurt either teams chances at pax or s2 significantly if they played balls to the wall all out in this game? Iunno. | ||

Naniwa was not cheesing. Read the history. He never microed his probes. He threw the game because it meant nothing to him. That was the entire controversy. The only difference here is that its both sides and not just one not playing seriously. | ||

Are you serious?Naniwa threw a game that should have never happened in the first place in GROUP play. This is the finals for a decent sum of money.If you think this is even comparable to what naniwa did your pretty fucking dumb. "And Naniwas was worse because he didn't try to have fun",WHAT LOL? I bet savior had fun throwing his games so his shit was less troublesome than this according to your logic. | ||
