Teamliquid does not respect tournament and foreign community enough to have him play. They just dont give a shit. If Taeja hadn't forfeited his bracket match, it would've been him or Minigun in the group. (Assuming those groups are indeed correct). So odds are he wouldn't have been in that group to begin with. These are inherent problems with the system. Yeah the proper thing would've definitely have been to play all the matches and for everyone to focus on all their opponents equally. Unfortunately, right now many players rather worry about what's best for themselves in the short term, until they're stuck on the bad end of the deal when suddenly they realize the effect it's having. | ||

If golfers can make match bets, why can't SC2 progamers? Moreover, there is no obvious bad blood to be found in the tweet by NaNiwA. It's an Alliance player encouraging more interesting and friendly competition, and no one here has any reason to believe otherwise unless they've talked to NaNiwA or Revival lately. | ||

Myself: 29, real corruption (or rather not being corrupted) is a very important topic and a problem in my line is work. Sentence: not guilty. | ||

It only doesn't make sense because while Alexander *had* to pay people to fight, Revival still has to fight the same people whether Naniwa gives money or not. Its more akin to giving someone a performance based bonus for sealing the deal with a particularly difficult client. | ||

This challenger league shouldn't even be played in the first place, let alone give any WCS points :D It's all a mess thanks to Blizzard. | ||

The person giving the bonus and the employee receiving the bonus is part of the same entity. That's not the case with Naniwa and the players Revival is playing. It's more like paying a third party money to steal your competitor's clients away. | ||

And he didn't have to play against players with a bounty on his head. | ||
