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

Pretty crazy. Maybe he's just there to testify against the match fixers?


That's what I was thinking at first, but I dunno how he'd be related to it since it seemed to be a Prime thing.

Eh...he's a progamer, if he's like the other he hardly has a life where he can commit a crime unless it is match fixing related indeed

jesus christ. i wonder h ow many other high profile pros have the possibilty of being involved in these things. surely no one wouldve ever predicted that Life would ever be questioned. so that possibility exists and its scary if you think about it.

no matter the outcome this negatively affects his image.
terrible, terrible, damage

Do we technically know if he's being accused of match fixing as opposed to breaking an entering/robbery/drugs/etc...

If he goes to prison, is he going to get a life sentence?

maybe is a cover up from the government to give Life some drones to manipulate and attack North Korea.

Man, the more I think about the timing of this the more it makes me wonder. Why wait until basically the last minute going into a weekend? Are they just hoping everyone forgets about it over the weekend or something? I don't know why else you would wait for that kind of timing.

In any case, I don't think we'll hear anything more concrete until at least Monday morning Korea time at best.

Life is in second place for winnings in Starcraft 2, at $468,469. For some of the poorer, less successful players, I can at least understand why they would match fix. In Life's case, I really couldn't understand. Let's hope that he is cleared during this investigation!

Drones wouldn't be too good. Changelings would be better for infiltration

Probably a life sentence in esports and a fine/prison time.

He wants to pull a savior and be remembered as a legend?

... Is that a serious question?

No one (at least none of the pros involved) got more than 3 years of probation during the original BW match-fixing scandal for reference.

If he is in fact found guilty of match fixing he'll be banned from the game for life if that's what you mean.

There hasn't been any official statements, so I think the timing is just a product of when the journalists learned about Life's arrest.
