We know this is a crazy and sensitive issue, especially since Life is the most high profile player to be caught up in an "investigation". But please stay calm and refrain from slandering players until we have more information. Egregious posts will be dealt with accordingly.

PLEASE READ THE OP BEFORE POSTING

It sounds like slandering players might be acceptable in the future


Yeah, once we have more information, we may slander the shit out of them, even TL staff may help with this haha

I think you're a funny person because, as I've seen throughout this thread, you're capable of expecting people to give you the time of day when you stink of disrespect from across the world.

Different case imo, this is all about money, Life isn't even remotely short of money, he made $117k from prize money alone in 2015, and I could imagine him on a huge contract at KT.


Savior earned a lot of more money than life, but he was greedy, being large of money doesnt relate to be inoccent or guilty of matchfixing in SC world.


Absolutely incorrect. It's well known by now that the pros involved in the BW matchfixing scandal weren't paid much for their troubles, certainly not compared to sAviOr's salary and tournament winnings. It's also known that in sAviOr's case in particular, boredom and lack of passion for the game played a big role rather than greed.
mfw people who never followed BW speak about sAviOr as if they know anything... -___-''''

It does not mean he is innocent, but it makes it less likely still. It's not prove, but still relevant. It makes you question his motives.

Worst case scenario it's just greed, a base motive. But often that's just not the case. Most human beings have a reason for doing bad stuff. When the Prime case was made public, nobody was surprised, because everybody could guess the reason.

As I wrote earlier - that doesn't mean he's innocent.



I does not, but it does make this case weird.
it does not make it any less likely at all, and if you truly believe that then you're a starstruck fan not using proper critical thinking.

Hmm, it seems you're making the same mistake you accuse others of now. Things like this are actually more prevalent when people lack/ need money.
that's not how probability works. he's under investigation which in itself makes him an isolated case.

if life were NOT being investigated, then you could say that he is less likely in a predictive sense to do such a thing based on demographic data (assuming such data actually indicates less success increases those odds, which is believable, but i don't have those numbers)

but once he's accused, if for example he were on trial it would not make any sense to try to defend him by saying "well, he's successful, so why would he do it?" sure, his lawyer would probably try to insinuate exactly that, just like lawyers of rich white people try to argue that they're successful and respected in their communities. but it's not real logic. you can't argue that someone robbed a bank because they're poor and poor people need money, and it doesn't make sense in reverse either

this is all assuming there is legitimate evidence of something and that there's no crazy conspiracy to frame life, which is possible as far as i know. but if there is legit evidence, that affects him as a data point, and it becomes a question of did he do something, yes or no, not "would he" do something

all that said, we still don't know all of this. but people are talking, and one of the things they're saying is that he wouldn't do it because he's rich, which is very very very silly.

True. If anything, it's more understandable (less bad?) when poor people commit an economic crime

But I don't think Musicus said "he wouldn't do it because he's rich"

Let's try to deviate the attention to something not painful.

It was confirmed that it was Life who requested the transfer from KT to Freecs. Why do you think he did that?

I don't think KeSPA would prevent him from playing until the investigation ends if it was a questioning.
