Following the Coca vs Byun controversy at the latest ESV Korean Weekly, SlayersCoca decided to forfeit his spot in GSL code S. Furthermore, he no longer is part of Slayers A team and will practice out of the Slayers house.

Gayeon AKA Jessica and Boxer apologised profusely about the incident.

Coca won't participate in any tournament, offline or online, until Slayers team decides his "mentality" as a pro is ready for it.

The other player involved in this case, GhostKingPrime AKA Byun, also won't be allowed to participate in future tournaments until the team deems ready. He will still practice at the team house though. SOURCE

Mr. Chae and GomTV are investigating the case and will make the official statement shortly.

The incident itself:

In the recent Korean Weekly, Coca and Byun had a complete brain fart and declared to the world that they were match fixing.

Coca had won the first game in the series, and he was also winning the second but then Byun asked him to leave and Coca did. Byun won the third game and advanced to the next round.

Since Coca is already in Code S he doesn't need the Code A seed from the Korean weekly, but Byun his former teammate does since he's in Code B.

Here are screenshots of what went down:

Byun: fuck fuck
Coca: Trap card!
Byun: I got dominated fuck
Coca: You have to put down a planetary. I have 3 expansions.
Byun: No it's not that. Mutas
Byun: Leave fuck fuck fuck
Coca: I surrender
Byun: Let's go to a third game
Coca: ok. gg
*Coca leaves game*


Diamond's thoughts on the matter, and the future of Korean Weeklies:
On November 15 2011 15:12 Diamond wrote:
Ok I have read everything over and it is without a doubt what CoCa and Byun did was 100% wrong. They took away the very spirit the Korean Weekly was built on. While it was created to have a quick, fun tournament for Koreans and inject more money into the scene, it is just that, a tournament, a competition. What CoCa and Byun did was incredibly stupid, and ruins the very foundation the tournament itself is based on (the best player wins).

However I am a man that has made more mistakes in my life then I care to admit. CoCa and Byun are both very young and I in no way feel this was a highly premeditated incident like the Savior incident. They deserve a second chance, but not one without punishment.

Until January 1st, 2012 CoCa and Byun are both suspended from the Korean Weekly. We hope they will use this time to look upon themselves and to make sure this never happens again. Additionally the suspension cannot be lifted without the direct approval of their respective coaches (both the time and approval requirements must be met). I feel this will give them the time they need to work past whatever made them do this. They will also be ineligible for any qualified spots in the next Korean Weekly Finals.

In the meantime I will be looking at alternate formats for the Korean Weekly that will somehow separate Code A and S players from Code B. I do not know what the system is yet, but I will be working on it during our two week break.

I am sorry to everyone.

Second: What happened? Add more to OP please explain the controversy so there is more content or the thread might get closed.

I just panicked and searched for pretty much everything I could think of involving Coca's name before I realized nobody else knew what was going on either. Qu'est-ce que c'est?

What the hell happened at the last ESL Korean Weekly?

Edit: Just saw the pictures. T.T this does not look good. On one hand I feel for the players... these are their friends and spots are limited, however throwing games isn't the right way to help them out...

Wait what just happened? Is Coca not playing because of slayers? Unless he signed a contract, he could just leave and easily get into any other team, imo.. No reason to give up a Code S spot.
