I get the game looking shady, until KeSPA comes out with a statement I'm holding judgement, but I was just curious if I was missing something with the Pinnacle swing. | ||

You best ask Swoopae But the info you seek is already in this thread though | ||

Just look at the picture shown in the OP. ByuL being favored 8:1 over MarineKing while herO only being at 3:1 over Center isn't sensible. | ||

Still holding off for a KeSPA announcement, but that is pure CJ bias, betting against MKP is sensible imo, much more decisive than the other match ups. That being for Byul specifically is off relative to herO v. Center though, I see the logic. | ||

Its true but at the edge of your base you could presume the ovy is still out of the fog, the difference between black and the greyish filter applied when its under the fog is sometimes hard to tell if you dont look carefully. Im not saying he is innocent, but just imagine for a second, ending the career of someone who is not guilty, Anyway if MK know for sure that he isnt guilty, he should offer a similar explanation in my opinion, I would go out and tell everyone, Maybe he got pratice partner that knew he would use this build before the game even started. Any explanations or thought on what happened from him would be welcome. | ||

Except that it would require for bettors to know the future, and how the game would actually play out. But ye, good theory. | ||

How exactly would this work? The betting lines changed before the game was even played. | ||

Well it would mean the bettors all knew at least ByuL's strategy and MK's average reaction to "scouting" it. So, the bets were made by CJ Entus' coaching staff and players. Clearly, this is the truth we should stick to <.< | ||

Huk described it best. I hope MKP is innocent but the way the game went down and the betting pattern just makes that so hard to believe outright. | ||

Just look at the betting forums, these guys are always discussing the lines before the games start. So you either think they are all part of it, or you just accept that your conspiracy theory is a little bit tinfoily | ||

As they say, where there is smoke there is fire, and rekrul points out there are signs that this is more widespread than we may be able to see from the outside looking in; I guess I'll have to wait and see what comes out and I may well be left holding my breath. | ||
