Oh, and it's not JulyZerg mentioned in the article. The "25 year old Mr Park" refers to a broker, not a gamer.

Yeah. Nada is basically the greatest progamer of all time. He's a champion of will, soul, and skill.


He was also one of the highest paid progamers, so he wouldn't need to stoop so low for some pocket change. All in all... savior

Although I'm very disappointed I'm not shocked at all. Athlets dope, referees manipulate games, it happens over and over again. I'm not saying we should give up and accept stuff like that.No way - things like that need to be stopped, culprits need to be sentenced. Progaming is just -sad but true- no exception.

I wonder if Stork was involved, heared rumors about that on Nuke's channel... Does anyone know more?

True that, and it makes MJY's slump that much more pathetic.

It still kills me to see the MJY of old, who was just so god damn talented in every aspect of the game, compared to the sad sad MJY of now.

Noooooo Bisu!!! Kim isn't a common last name in Korea, right?

But seriously, how "confirmed" are the netizen's suspect list? I mean it's confirmed there is a scandal but I'm curious as to each player specifically.

Okay, I didn't finish reading rest of the posts, but since when did the fucking gangster = progamers? And what, did the progamer acquire some sort of gosu ninja skills and successfully flee from authority causing him to become wanted? I can't believe some people isn't pointing this out while quoting this beep. Stop over-reacting, people.


That is a separate person involved in the scandal. He is not a progamer nor necessarily has talked to or met with any progamers. Everything could have been done through the brokers but initiated by the so called Mr. Kim.

Yeah, sAviOr and Klazart and his love for sAviOr got me into progaming.

Sad to see things turn out the way they did.

Still hoping that something is wrong in all of this. That Mr. Ma is just an alias to conceal the real culprit or something like it.

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.


Yes, and I assume that, to not kill the sport and to send out a strong warning to the other players, the only players to be pursued are those that are those with the most and the worst transgressions in this fashion. It may have been as much as 10 or 20 progamers, but possibly only 6 or 8 will be prosecuted and punished which for one does justice and sends a strong message that game fixing will not be tolerated, and two not ruin the sport and make everyone thing that the whole thing was and still could be easily corrupted.

Sounds like wishful thinking to me. I think it's pretty obvious that Savior participated and it's realllly saddening.

Well it's also a matter of location although plain conversion may seem right you don't factor in cost of living, among certain things cost certain prices in certain places.

Easy example is i could but a GTX 470 for 350$ or i could but it for 350euros in europe, or for 8,000 pesos in mexico which is like 700 dollars in US

Oh man...in many ways this is a relief.

I remember when the scandal first came out they were supposedly investigating Bisu, BeSt, and fantasy and lots of other players that would pretty much gut the major teams.

Chances are more money was involved but they either can't prove it or have chosen to downplay it. In South Korea, are sentences worse if more money is involved?
Do I contradict myself? Very well, then I contradict myself. I am large, I contain multitudes.
