These names really disappoint me...particularly Savior who was one of the guys that got me interested in progaming to begin with. Serious shit. Now they all get the Pete Rose treatment and possibly worse.

Why is everyone so disappointed ? What were you expecting...

These progamers (most of them out of their competing prime anyways) are guys that dropped school and/or potential careers just so they could get best at their game. Being this passionate about SC is something I can relate to, however you can't expect high morals from most of those people (kudos to exceptions). Making them your idols or loving them on any other ground except perhaps trying to learn from their gaming skill or enjoying the way they play is completely silly. Saviour was a great Starcraft player. He is a sellout for money, but honestly - what did you expect? Most of them are poor anyway, chance to reap money from silly gamblers like this is the best thing that happened to them. The amounts are so small because this is all the reporters have proof for. There is probably a lot more money in this then it seems now.

Many professional sports scenes are rotten, why would you expect progaming scene to be different ...

yeah you are correct.
all pro sports scenes have some shit going on but everybody just doesn't like to see their heroes actually be scammers.

Make them apologize in interviews about this imo.

Wow what a peice of shit. One of the strongest players in the games history bribing and convincing younger or under paid pro gamers to become dishonest cheating scum and then not fully paying them?

Seriously, anybody who even cares for this scums achievements in broodwar still retarded.

His face should be striken from the walls as a champion and sent immediately to the military.

I'm hope he has a job like clearing mines or testing grenades.

I wish I could say I knew he was a pos before now, but I didn't.

To all of you who are calling these progamers pieces of shit, etc:

Most of you would have probably done the same thing given a choice.

Not saying what these people did was justified but I'm not going to come down too hard on them.

yeah because most progamers are involved in this scandal, right? I mean it's not like it's only a select group that stooped to this, right?? Like, there's not a list of only 8 or so guys that chose to fix games in the OP of this thread is there?


What gives you the assumption that every progamer was bribed to throw games?

Surely not every one, but it must be that some substantial portion of them knew that this opportunity existed, or even that some of their teammates were taking advantage of it. It just can't be that the ~8 outed players comprise even a majority of progamers who were aware they could throw games to make money. Everyone knows about the betting sites.

the internet forum rumor of the week in Korea is that savior made something like $2million or so -_-


So is that $2 Million in Korean currency which would be like $3000 American(don't know the translation rate correct me if I'm wrong), or is that $2M in American currency :O?

*edit* @Superarc: Yeah I'm assuming(hoping) it's in American. To disrespect the entire community and scene like this for chump change just doesn't make sense.

Why on earth would anyone, who isn't starving, break the law for two thousand dollars? That level of stupidity out to be punished. And fortunately it will.

People break the law for much much less.
Drugs come to mind.
So close, and yet so far
