Hi guys, you know match fixing in pro BW has been going on for years. No suprise to me. So why now with the scandals?
Blizzard are wanting to promote SC2. BW is a great userbase for SC2 sales, but it's also a stumbling block for conservatives that want to stay BW ( me included! ) . This is the 1st in a series of scandals that'll be hitting pro-BW over the next year or so. The idea of course is to diminish the credibilty of BW wrt to korean media and thus all BW media. Character assasination. After reducing the pro-BW korean to a mess with scandals and other tricks, blizzard will step in with refurb grants on the condition that they all shift to SC2.
Bastards. Nothing we can do. Even a 100% unified TL member embargo on SC2 would not discourage blizzard from this course of action. The BW community is going to be forcably converted to SC2.


Scene: Mike Morhaime's office, a darkened room covered in Blizzard memorabilia. Mike Morhaime sits behind his desk, stroking a cat.

Dustin Browder enters the room, and silently kneels before him.

Dustin: What is thy bidding, my master?

Morhaime: There is a great disturbance in the fanbase.

Dustin: I have felt it, my master.

Morhaime: Many of the e-sports fans are not switching over to SC2. They believe the Korean BroodWar leagues are more competitive and...fun to watch. (Morhaime sneers)

Dustin: But Kespa is just a small organization. Boxer can no longer help them...

Morhaime: They could severely lessen our sales. Already, they have succeeded in getting SC2 rated Adults Only in Korea. If they continue to oppose us, the damage would be great.

Dustin: But...if Kespa could be turned, they would be a powerful ally...

Morhaime: Yes...yes...but can it be done? We have negotiated with them for three years, and still they refuse to bow to our whims.

Dustin: If they cannot be turned...they will be destroyed.

Morhaime: Yes...but how? Our greatest legal and parapsychological pressure has been ineffective against them.

Dustin: Through Blizzard Korea and my contacts in the Illuminati, I have acquired certain information concerning the Korean progamers and proteams. Information about match-fixing scandals, involving the top echelon of players in Korea...including (Z)sAviOr himself.

Morhaime: Excellent! This information that could severely damage Kespa. I will travel to Korea immediately, and begin spreading this information among the Korean e-sports media. Kespa will be utterly destroyed!

Dustin: But what if they survive?

Morhaime: Do not worry, my servant. Through my contacts in the International Jesuit Conspiracy, I have acquired even more damaging information than this. If they will not bow to us, then they will find themselves shaken by scandal after scandal, until nothing at all remains of them but dust and ashes. And then, once Kespa is gone, we will step in, and take over all of e-sports. Starcraft 2's ascendancy will be assured!

Dustin: But what if some of the fans discover what we're doing? What if they connect us to the scandal?

Morhaime: That is unlikely. But even if they do, even if all of the foreign e-sports fans rebel against us...Kespa will fall, and there is nothing they can do to stop us. Mwa ha ha ha ha!
(Morhaime subsides into maniacal laughter)

Dustin: So be it, my master.

Dustin rises to his feet, and exits the office.

Mike Morhaime stands up slowly, and whispers an incantation over his cat. The cat transforms into a massive wing-ed HELLBEAST, which Morhaime leaps upon and rides off in the direction of Korea, cackling madly.

Was this about what you had in mind?


LOL this was fucking brilliant man!


Best ever haha ^^ Just what I was thinking and it is so true almost xD Blizzardz are evilz. =)

fuck all of those apologizes by the busted progamers, they should be banned from e-sports for life, that way they'll learn their lesson, i mean, they gave all away to become progamers not fucking betting cheaters.... they should all be kicked out from their teams and force to retire so they will regret for doing what they did and be left in the world without anything to back them up, the kids can barely fucking plug their mosues in the computer, they are so gonna fail at life if they take BW away from them, i'd love to see that

so what? there are progamers at least attempting to come clean with the fans and honestly apologizing, its hard to say "sorry" i believe is what they say.
i gain back some respect for them instead of those who just go off the radar and not comment on anything

Everybody makes mistakes. But to be honest, out of all the offenders, I want only Hwasin to stay. I don't really care about the rest.

I am actually glad that Savior has retired now. He was tainting his own legacy for too long, even before this scandal.

Hwasin's apology:

죄 송합니다
I'm sorry.

죄송합니다.
I'm sorry.

정말 죄송합니다. e스포츠 관계자분들과 구단분들, 그리고 무엇보다 우리 팀 동료들과 저를 지켜봐주시고 믿어주신 팬 여러분께 진심으로 머리숙여 죄송합니다.
I'm really sorry. I apologize sincerely to everyone involved with and working in e-sports, and especially to my team mates and all my fans who've been watching me and believing in me.

감히 죄송하다는 말씀 드릴 자격도 없지만.. 가만히 있는 것은 더욱 도리가 아닌 것 같아, 이렇게 부끄러운 사죄의 글을 올립니다.
I know I don't even have the right to apologize... I'm uploading this apology with the thought that keeping silent on the matter would be even worse.


어린 나이도 아니고, 한 순간의 실수였다고 용서를 빌 수 있는 일이 아니라는 거.. 알고 있습니다. 모두 한 순간의 유혹을 뿌리치지 못한 저의 잘못입니다. 정말 진심으로 후회하고 있습니다.
At my age, I can't claim it was a moment's mistake and hope for forgiveness... I know that.
It's my fault for not being able to resist the temptation of the moment. I'm regretting it from the bottom of my heart.

지난 7년간 수많은 분들이 저를 응원하고 아껴주신 것 알고 있는데.. 덕분에 겨우 지금까지 올 수 있었는데… 정말 제가 왜 그랬는지.. 제가 정말 어리석었습니다.
I know that for the last 7 years, hundreds of people have been loving me and cheering for me... Thanks to them, I made it (as a progamer) until now.... why did I do this... I was so immature.

제 자신이 용서가 안 되는데, 이런 글 몇자로 여러분의 용서를 바랄 수도 없고, 제 죄를 덜 수도 없다는 걸 알지만… 그래도 진심으로 죄송하단 말씀 드립니다.
I know that it's unforgiveable, that I can't expect to earn your forgiveness through a few letters, that it doesn't make my sin any better... But still. I will tell you how deeply sorry I am.

그 어떤 말로도.. 그간 저를 응원하고 아껴주신 분들께 충분히 사죄할 수 없겠지만…
There are no words through which I could ever apologize enough to the people who've been supporting and loving me all this time. But...

정말. 정말.. 죄송합니다.
Really. I'm really... sorry.

I gotta say, I almost got something in my eye when I was reading this.

Almost, dammit.

In fact all of those cheaters should team up and form a "cheater" team with Savior as the leader, then start to own faces in Proleague. It would be cool to watch "cheater team" winning in the Grand Final hahaha.

PS : The "cheater" team would be sponsored by illegal betting sites hehe

I'm sure somebody has already said this but...

What I found really fucking ironic with sAviOr was that in one interview with him and BoxeR, he was talking about how he bought all of the expensive clothes so that he could make e-Sports look good, and improve the image of the progamers.

Now... wow.
