This was seen as match-fixing by the Slayers team, and he is now on the B-team and can't participate in any tournaments. | ||

It is pretty hostile against these two players. Koreans see it as matchfixing because, 1. This tourney gives one free code A spot to winner, which is everything for Korean progamers 2. Coca already has code S spot. original source http://esports.gomtv.com/gsl/community/view.gom?mbid=1&msgid=23899&p=1 http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewpost.php?post_id=12282624 On November 15 2011 12:51 Namu wrote: Seems like things are escalating. Dr. Chae has responded that they're looking into this problem. He stated that there's no Code A spot for the tournament going on (they have to discuss 2012 stuff with ESV TV), but they do not want to ignore how coca & byun behaved in the game. Seems like they'll get punished in some method.. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/postmessage.php?quote=3710&topic_id=225519 On November 15 2011 13:16 anrimayu wrote: Holy, this is getting serious.

I wouldn't say "banned" from team house, but he was sent home, demoted to B team, won't attend any tournaments (korean or foreign) until the team deems it appropriate. | ||

This caused shitstorm in Korean forum for match fixing issue, as well as lack of professionalism for cussing. Slayers apologized for causing such scandal, sent Coca to B team, and kicked him out of the teamhouse. He won't be attending any Korean or foreign events until further notice. Coca also forfeited his code S spot. GomTV announced that they're still discussing the code A spot with ESV TV and nothing has been confirmed yet. After further discussion, they will decide what to do with the two players. | ||

One of my favorite players from my favorite team? Gahh! Edit: Now that the initial shock has worn off, I just feel very sad and disappointed. So much potential and talent in Coca, gone, just like a mini-Savior. Today is a dark day. | ||
