Person #5/ Mr. E is referred to an ex-progamer and former game journalist. Surely this is (Z)Enough who was indicted in the PRIME case?

Increasing the prize pool would probably help, considering you get 7 times more the money for throwing a match/game than actually winning the tournament itself.


The amount gamblers can bribe the players can always outscale whatever prize pool you set up. Having a larger prize pool might reduce the temptation for the "poorer" players, but wouldn't be a solution for the problem.

Oo that guy is much older though? Would be nice if it's not Bbyong though.

Vacating championships is somewhat difficult of an issue. He won them fair and square, and he matchfixed tournaments he didn't win. So technically his wins are legitimate, even though he was a shitter.

bribepool>prizepool...I will never understand
I remember watching life games and just getting so hyped to play the game. He was a big reason I switched to Zerg. What a shame that the scene can come to a few bad people bribing these young kids. Sad day for Starcraft 2

I wonder if Bbyong match fixed to get the money for his eye operation.

I read that Savior had almost all of his tournament winnings vacated by Kespa so have they changed their conduct?

Eye operation?

He was most likely involved in the games Life threw, meaning he was guilty of them before he was caught with the Prime stuff. It's not like he got arrested then got out and match fixed again (I wouldn't think)

Maybe you will call it heresy, but I am not really too offended with someone throwing a game in a series they won at the end anyway. It doesn't really change anything while allowing a player to get a nice side income.

Eye operation?

I heard he was having eye surgery, and that was the reason for his recent absence, but I really don't know.

That is very fair attitude supporting competition. Well played, sir, well played! :-)

Thanks.

If you are talking about operations like Lasik or whatever, they are "super cheap" (compared to, lets say where I live) in Korea. You wouldn't need 30,000,000 Won just for that.

normally nobody would bat an eye because he won the series, but if you're talking about Mr.E here then he decided to turn himself in.

guilt isn't really known for driving rational decisions.
