The reason I say he threw the game away was not because he left a gap in his wall, but the fact he had 800 minerals and built a tonne of gateways in his main instead of re-walling off to stop the zerglings from reinforcing.. every pro gamer knows once they break the wall you must re-wall off to stop them from streaming in.. any high level player can see that was a throw away.


let me guess you are a high level pro gamer?


Im not pro, but I am GM on SEA/NA..

tell me why he built 7 gateways in his main instead of rewalling off when he knew it was an all in.

Loving it! InCa beats two great players in Polt and LosirA. And as a bonus he can guarantee his friends Code S spot.

And maybe InCa doesn't have the mechanics of the current top players, but he at least comes up with original builds/strategies, even tho maybe all-in.

Well that's depressing. Hope Zenio does well this code S. I don't have high hopes for Inca. Can't believe he beat both Losira and Polt.

I also find it hard to believe that 2 players would conspire to throw a match and then post a screen shot of them talking about throwing said match within 5 minutes of the end of the match....

When was the last time we had a LR thread where there wasnt an accusation of throwing a game? pre blizzcon?

Oh you better prepare yourself.
With this Naniwa case suddenly everyone will say x was throwing a match and didn't get banned while naniwa did.
This will go on for at least a month unless mods do something.
I'm surprised they dare accuse Koreans of having double standards and not punishing their own (other Koreans), when they've been much harsher to CoCa; and also allowed the Jinro/Huk ceremony overboard fun pass in the end which they clearly wouldn't have allowed for a Korean. I think it's very clear that Koreans try to treat foreigners at least as good, if not better than Koreans.

^This was what I was thinking too, if I was Inca and wanted to throw the game I wouldn't have scouted and went for DTs straight up, perhaps with some minute delays between each building, that way if Zenio busted my front there was nothing that I could do and no one would say anything.

IMO no matter what Inca did, if he made ANY MISTAKES AT ALL during the match, losira and polt fans would still cry foul. I'm sure Inca would know of the shitstorm that would ensue if he lost by making bad mistakes, but well... its Inca?


There are any number of ways to throw a game. Perhaps the most subtle is to not make any attacks that could kill your opponent.

I'm sad this community can't focus on what is important, so we wouldn't have this format and these arguments.

It doesn't matter whether or not he intentionally threw the game or didn't play at his best because he was already through even if he lost, what matters is that because of the format he could.

It's a bad format that is unfair to the players who don't get to face an opponent who may or may not give it their best because they're already through, and it's a bad format because it gives incentive for matchmaking (that doesn't have to planned) when a player who is already through faces a friend or teammate.

This. It makes no sense to accuse Inca. Situations like this one should be avoided whenever possible.

Ever heard of preparation?

It's Inca. He goes DTs
What did they not prepare for?
What did they lose to?

Its 100% their fault...

Polt and Losira aside, Inca clearly threw the game and that should not have happened he should have played the game just like MC gave his all against DRG on Crossfire even though it was meaningless for him : that's called sportsmanship.

Because people never fucked up a walloff before. Get over yourself, don't be butthurt that your favorite players didn't go through, they've got only themselves to blame if they lose against someone like InCa.

MC said in an interview that he couldn't give his all against DRG, because he knew it was meaningless.
He actually said that he wasn't 100% focused.
Just ahead of time, know your addiction's not a crime. It's just a smaller part of who you want to become in the end.

Agreed, I hate reading anything about suspecting match throwing / fixing etc on account of aspects of a tournament the organisers can control (like the format).

A lot of people can upload that, each caster, korean or not, the players, the referee...I still think it's a fake, but there are other possible sources than players.

Isn't not having group style play the only way to stop this?

Source? because he said the opposite and was trying his best in the post game interview.

Here is my source saying he was giving it his all. Cut the bullshit lies to fit your agenda.

But then if Losira and Polt are so consistent why did they lose to Inca?
