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

I am still hopeful. I do not think that Life would throw a match. What match would that have even been, had he done so? It just doesn't add up.

it's really weird since he's prolly the most successful sc2 player history so it;s hard to believe (of course it's not yet confirmed)


The only problem with this logic is that saviOr was in a very similiar position in BW - in his time he was surely the greatest zerg to date. I am only now getting a remote idea how much of a shock that revelation must have been for BW fans back then, because it just does not make sense, for exactly the same reasons why Life matchfixing wouldn't. But I still believe this is just a regular police work randomly blown out of proportions for some procedural reasons.


Uhm i didn't follow bw that time but i've read from some article here i can't remember which one stating that he was losing his form like before he was caught matchfixing. Like he was not the best anymore, maybe still good but not good enough.

There's also JD in bw too who's probably bigger than him, so yeah it's the same in a sense but a bit different cause life may literally be the best zerg of sc2 ever.

savior was really bad when he got arrested and had been mediocre at best for over a year before that

I mean his last few games actually looked more promising in that he looked super fierce and invested, go look at the camera shots of his face (also he was playing better again than during his slump, people actually favored him vs Bisu at that time), he probably knew he was gonna be arrested soon and wanted to make it his last hurrah
My heroes: Jangbi, Bisu, Stork and BeSt for BW, Rain, Zest and Stats for SC2! Need a better Signature tbh...

He also never fixed matches himself iirc? At least officially?

Arrested for esports misconduct? That's intense. Imagine if Blackfoger lived in Korea and how many charges would be levied against him.

Just a small reminder,

Now it is 4:55 AM in Korea, so if you are checking this thread for some news, you need to wait at least 4 hours.

Thanks for the headsup, I've reloading over and over. So anxious XD Will try and sit tight for further news

Hardly specific or damning evidence... looks more like a reddit troll post where the OP throws paint at a wall to see if it sticks.

I commend you on your searching tho!

Is it confirmed/is there substantial reason to believe he was arrested for match-fixing? Or is KeSPA just reacting this way as a precaution?
Can someone please explain/how water falls with no rain?

if life was arrested because of something unrelated to sc2, like DUI, would that also affect his gaming career or does kespa not care about stuff outside of sc2?

Holy shit, Flash and Jaedong were investigated for match fixing too?! Please tell me that they were not involved as well. This is really sad moment for the entire SC2 scene.

Flash and JD were questioned years ago because of the BW matchfixing scandal, they were completely innocent.

In 2010, I'm pretty sure the meaning was.

That was a looooooooong time ago during BW, almost everybody was investigated I guess.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.
