If does, Naniwa and Revival play a tiebreaker vs each other and the winner goes to Blizzcon and automatically gets $5,000 for attending, more for winning. Naniwa offering money to the player who knocks revival out of IEM. There's no IEM... You mean WCS Challenger League - if Revival ends 1st or 2nd, they are tied. And since Taeja reportedly forfeited that group, well... Pretty sure its only if Revival comes in first in the group, I definitely could be wrong though
25 extra points if you get 1st or 2nd in the group

The part where you get $5000 for being in the main blizzcon tournament or something like that. Also he-who-must-not-be-named

That's slightly better than $500.
Edit: 5k, not 10k

Also, pride, sportsmanship and the risk of being DQed from WCS throwing matches for money?

because if revival wins and then wins a bo5 against naniwa, he gets at least 5,000 dollars...

1. Revival does not want to get kicked out of EG 2. If he makes it to blizz con he wins 5grand just for showing up 3. Who the fuck risk their whole carrier for anything less then 322? 250 wont cut it man!

To the people saying that Naniwa should just man up and beat Revival in the tiebreaker, remember that this also puts Naniwa at a disadvantage for the the rest of Day 1 of the tournament. Everyone who he plays afterwards will have played one less set than him.
Sorry if someone else mentioned this and I missed it.

he will be up vs Soulkey, do you think it will make a difference lol....

Haha that's quite funny

That's so nice. :D For every won bo3? But I guess he can afford it, since he is 5000$ granted if he makes it to Blizzcon main tourney.
Love players like Nani!

I'm an absolute Faniwa, but I'm afraid you might be right.

Honestly, in this specific situation I don't see anything wrong with this.
There are a lot of situations where added incentives might encourage fixing matches, but this isn't one of them.

Well, if it's true about Taeja throwing, I don't think it will make much of a difference... I don't like it much, but I can't see a reason it should not be allowed...

Well, it will make a $5000 difference, the Winner of Revival/Naniwa gets 5k for the honour of losing to Soulkey

Yep, good thing I have no ties to the players anymore. I'm allowed to make whatever bets I want.
