There was one game against Solar that was mildly suspicious, but most likely these two games are what he was arrested for. He would have been investigated thoroughly at this point and if he had match fixed at other times it would have been included in the report. | ||

I am under no circumstances ok with it. It's blatantly throwing away competitive integrity. Some small part of me does think it makes a difference somehow, but still | ||

If you have the decency to turn yourself in then you should've had the decency to not do it in the first place. Yes, because the inner decency of all human beings is a black and white construct that cannot change over time. I'm really sad to hear that GSL is now being manipulated as well. Proleague matches have been fixed on occasion for a long time, but this is the first time I remember hearing about a Code S matchfix. | ||

If it makes you feel better it was in Code A | ||

We haven't known for which matches Life was arrested for yet. But it seems probable now it was for the Kespa Cup matches. | ||

Life is my age and I have been following and loving that kid since zenex days, and even though Rain became my favorite player ever since his wcs asia games vs. parting, i always looked up to life, as he just felt like someone so special to me. Part of this is because his first incredible run for like half a year i believe was during a time in which i was very ill, while starcraft was something i could hold on and look foward to playing as soon as i got better. Also very sad for Bbyong, if the reason is, as guessed prior, him having to pay for eye surgery, i really hope kespa gives him a second chance, as he seemed to be in huge troubles. I don't know if this is the right time or place to do so, but as this is the first time i write about this, i would like to thank everyone active on TL, or active in the SC2 scene in general for helping me to get through a lot of bad times and helping me to recover from an illness i may otherwise not have been able to recover from. Sorry for my bad english and thank you all. | ||

Make progamers more aware of the consequences of such actions. Protect progamers more than what is already done with fair conditions, better salaries, etc. Better prize pool would also help I guess. Protect progamers who are approached to match-fix. Better surveillance on who is offering these deals and cracking down on betting. Pretty terrible all around. | ||

Real matchfixing like in this case is never ok, even if the outcome is the same. | ||
