Umm.. I thought arrest is not yet convicted... why is even Azubu treating them like it is a sure thing. Or is Korean law not the same as other developed nations... innocent until proven guilty...

KeSPA and Azubu are, to my knowledge, not courts of law.

So they're rewarded for matchfixing, wtf?
I think esports is pretty nice.

I'm pretty capable of thinking out of the box, but I have absolutely no idea how you can come to this conclusion...

While I fucking hate Azubu as a business, their platform is amazing. IMO banning match fixers doesn't even matter cause nobody uses the service lol, but holy shit that is one of the best platforms I have ever used. It's fast, sleek, rewind live streams, multilingual chats, and back when the beta page was new and I tried streaming on it the service was much more reliable and had next to no delay by default, versus Twitch having unavoidable delay.

I respect this move from azubu and feel other stream sites should follow suit to protect the legitimacy of esports.

They're not banning Savior though. Inconsistent?

They only mentioned this scandal. In all honestly the only ones happy with this are pro players. I think we should keep this whole streaming thing away from the scandal. They in no way correlate aside from the fact they're both StarCraft II. Streaming is not a tournament and should not be treated like one. IMO Azubu did this for publicity.

Like, what if streaming service X banned you and me for being on TeamLiquid right now, because TL and streaming service X don't get along?

Not convicted, yet punished. Interesting. Leads me to believe this is just a PR opportunity.

Oh I agree, I don't think streaming services should be banning the matchfixers. They're already being prosecuted and they're banned from competing, banning them from streaming is just vindictive for no real reason.

Hit the nail on the head synd, need to stay relevant. I love Azubu from a development standpoint but I will not support them simply because they've done so much fucked up shit.
