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.

Why do progamers are more likely to be arrested and involve in criminal activities?

Is this the consequences of players outwitting each other in a strategy game? People consistently using their will to outplay should only be inside the circle of SC2 and should not be apply into real life scenarios imo.

I think its entirely unlikely that pro gamers are more likely to be involved in criminal activity than other civilians. It just so happens that, especially in our worlds (or mine at least), we are more likely to hear about and remember it because they are semi-famous. I could open up the newspaper to the police blotter section now and pull out 20 instances of civilians be arrested in my local region yesterday alone; and these were only the ones they decided to use. After all they're people like anyone else and they're bound to make mistakes.


Good point, I guess the diminishing of SC2 player did not create a cause and effect in criminal activities. It's interesting to know that this game - the players and the coaches are generally more likely to get into the police station than the others. Funny how pro gamer's decision is on point but they make mistakes in life.

I guess it demonstrates that most of the pro gamers in this game learned in the hard way by gathering experiences. Being book smart helps you a lot to a certain level on this game until you need to acquire experience to improve your game play.

Well that kind of depends doesn't it, its bad decision making if you get caught, good if you don't (life wise) so depending on how many matchfixers hasn't been caught kind of decides that. Lifes seem to be faulty however =P

Sacrificing integrity for money isn't always a good life decision, regardless of if you get caught or not.

There are other ways to fix a match, I recall proleague(?) removed gametimers from their broadcasts so you can't fix matches to last under/over 10 mins for example. So let's say you want to fix a match that way, just make some kind of all-in rush. Win or lose doesn't matter, it will end in x mins if you go heavy all-in.

And there's the answer to "Why did Life 6 pool Lilbow 3 straight times?"

Just in case anyone's not aware, that's a joke

he didn't 6 pool him 3 times. It was one 6 pool, one baneling bust and one backdoor rock speedling allin.
Many of the coolest moments in sc2 happen due to worker harassment

In Korea any sort of gambling is banned. These games are not fixed by using betting sides outside of korea. The ouside websides like pinnicle are used secoundary by people wanting to even make more money out of their fix. The real bets are staged in the illegal korean betting scene. You cant ban illegal betting, because it is already illegal.
