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.

He almost won blizzcon a moment ago.



can they arrest him for fixing games in cali :o

He was payed to throw ro.16 but Korean throwing < foreign preparations for LotV.

Everythings so clear now. He obviously paid Lilbow to lose :O We all know Lilbow would have stomped everyone if there wasn't something fishy going on

Why is everyone getting mad over matchfixing? All we know is that he was arrested. For all we know he could have been snorting cocaïne, getting into a brawl at the exit of a nightclub, selling a sextape of Zest and Gyuri or simply participating lightly in a crime commited by old friends of him.


1) Korean progamers don't have time during the day to engage in any criminal activity outside of the games they play.

2) More seriously, it seems hardly coincidental that this happens immediately before he was supposed to play his Code A match. That strongly suggests it's SC2-related.


3) Arrested by the same out of town office that's known to handle sports corruption (including the recent case against Gerrard / Prime).

While the (2) is too coincidental for me, the (3) is legit, I didn't know that.

As korean I will tell about interesting information about this incident(forgive my awkward english sentences)

The point is the location of prosecutor's office: Changwon office

All korean e-sports matches are played in Seoul because influence of Seoul as capital is absolute like Paris.
But Life is interrogated in Changwon, not Seoul.

Changwon is quite far from Seoul. It is far more than 400km(=250 miles), But Changwon is quitecclose from Life's hometown.

But most interesting thing is Changwon prosecutor's office is specialized in investigating Match Fixing.
Most Sports(soccer,baseball,basketball,volleyball,starcraft...... )Match-fixing investigation have done in Changwon

That's why korean fans are suspecting Life's Match-fixing


Also first sentence in the OP

Kespa announced that Life arrested at the same district prosecutors' office (Changwon) that Prime guys were
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

That is just not right. He got arrested and send to a investigator 400km away from Seoul and this investigator is specialised on Esport-related crime. So we know more then he could snort some coce, drive his lambo into a wall or stalking Gyuri.

Kespa must have a vital interest in informing as fast as they can. This shit is a very hot topic and people are asking serious question and are questioning the complete Kespa leaded SPL. The more they wait, the more they lose control of the situation. Even when in the end nothing happend an Life was false accused by (add random programer who hates life), the longer the fans and public sit there without information, the more harm the league could potentially take.

Spouting false informations could be even more damaging.
Like saying there is undeniable proof that life matchfixed and in the end he turns out to be innocent.
Better waiting then risking ruining his reputation for nothing
