I can't find anything of the sort, but that is a long manual, so it could be in there of course.

You don't understand what sc2 has to do with WCS?

try to read more carefully
he said sc2l

I saw that, I assumed it was a typo or the l stood was "ladder", either way I don't know what it means. Whether it's a typo, ladder or league, it still doesn't make sense.

it probably stands for SC2 Improve Team League

but you are right, the rest of his post is dubious as best. the rules are clear


I guess they are referring to this rule:

Show nested quote +
Collusion and Match Fixing
–
Players are not allowed to intentionally alter the results of any match. If the organizer determines that a player is colluding or match fix ing, the player will be immediately disqualified and removed from the tournament and may be restricted from participating in future events.


I still don't understand where it says that the rules apply to competition that is not within the WCS system.


Krr is a participant of WCS, so I'm guessing in ANY competition he is part of, he is being kept to the WCS player code of conduct. And I'm also guessing that SC2ITL is a Blizzard sanctioned event so it can also fall under Blizzard's jurisdiction when the offender is a WCS participant. SC2ITL will likely also be handing out a punishment to Krr in terms of partaking in the SC2ITL.

edit: Blizzard is making, I think is making a clear statement, that any cheating found in any other competition will also hinder that participants chance's in WCS.

Really stupid of XY. I wanted to see him play in WCS AM and didn't need to win trade to get there - but now he has rightfully been barred from playing this season. Good call by Blizz, but still disappointing

I wanna see the screenshots of the alleged "admin" that knew about it but didn't care.

Win trades were rampant for the 200 wins and I think the blizz admins were aware but didn't do anything. Even if someone can dig up match history from before and compile a report, I doubt blizz will bar those players since they didn't do it this season (and for this season Neige/Curious was only screencap of 1 game). The ruling will probably help set an example to discourage others who have win traded or plan to for next season.

That's the thing that worries me more, Blizzard acting like an external policing force for unrelated tournaments.
There's no reason blizzard can't release new units or fixes to a game without creating another costly "expansion" you've already paid 100$ for, unless they want to treadmill the gambler with future promises of "it gets better"

Didnt Blizzard the announcement of 200 wins only 2 weeks before the qualifiers? No wonder that some guys were shocked about it and went panic mode.

That was 2 seasons ago, and they compensated for that in Season 1 by allowing for combined win totals.
The world is better when every background has a chance.

Good, people complain about the integrity of NA ladder and having people win trading doesn't help the scene.

I think Korean ladder is in shambles if you want to get technical. Silvers and golds are typically "as good" as dia/master Americas. NA doesn't exist on it's own any more, remember south, central, and north america were all merged. You should check out gold league games on KR/TW. Decision making, build execution, micro, and macro seem every bit as good as dia/master on NA. I highly doubt that it's some weird from another planet scenario where they are naturally that good as a whole, it seems much more likely off-racing pros and such.

Forgot to mention they use all of the best stuff: early oracle play, blink stalker all ins, immortal all ins, bling/ling busts, MASS muta with ling/bling play, etc.

As some1 who is master Amer, diam eu, and diam kor, I disagree with your disagreement. Gold level play is dozens of leagues below the same gold in KR/TW

Listen, when I climbed up from silver in KR, there were some people who were what you'd expect. Bad macro, all in, no real skill after the deadly build order push. However there's another group of gold/low plat players. People who's macro is what you see in pro games, who's upgrades and decisions are "pro status".

You obviously don't play very much KR ladder.

If their macro, upgrades, and decisions are pro status, then why in the world would they be stuck in gold or platinum?!
