No, saying "But the betting patterns were TOTALLY suspicious!" is NOT sufficient proof to outright accuse a player of matchfixing. We have proof. If you don't understand the proof, that's your problem. You have proof that the bets were fucky. What you need is proof from the game showing some sort of suspicious play, or something directly linking SK to the odd betting patterns. Yeah, once again "omg the bets looked like,...SO WEIRD guys" is absolutely not proof that you can use to accuse a certain player of matchfixing or not. That's like finding a thief in your house that's stealing something and assuming he just wanted to return it after he caught someone else trying to steal it, there is no 100%

If you don't understand the proof, that's your problem. It's circumstantial evidence and not direct evidence. You need a lot of it to judge someone. I'm not saying that the accusations are incorrect, but the situation can undoubtedly be argued. Soulkey matchfixing isn't an absolute fact, it's just a possibility still. It should be investigated agree?
I agree completely.

Give me sources, show me the proof.

I agree that its wrong to accuse single players. but the match fixing in korea wont stop if everyone just does nothing and waits Sure, I agree. So the people with all this supposed evidence need to start presenting it, and force organizations into action.
I've been holding my breath on that supposedly scene-shattering article about matchfixing that was supposed to come out and ruin the whole Korean scene and, well, I'm getting a little dizzy from lack of oxygen over here.

Would be nice if any tournament organizer, team OR Blizzard said anything about it then. Like "we're investigating" or "we've seen proof it's nothing".
The total silence makes me think they all know it's going on, but no-one wants to say anything because it might hurt the scene.
The problem is that eventually it will not only hurt it, but destroy the Korean Starcraft 2 scene.

How about a player not scouting for proxy hatch after scouting late pool and gas and no expansion? and then you have the same strategy getting scouted, on same map, against a better opponent and still win, and used in a the last game of bo5 individual league. hard to say if mkp is just being mkp

We had that in the Marineking match and some people still werent convinced
A good match fixer will make a bunch of small mistakes to lose, Marineking was just bad at it.

It will probably never happen because it would mean bad publicity if they were to confirm match fixing happening...

This is the 5th time bets have been cancelled in a couple months and there were multiple other matches that were suspicious.
