I am afraid this was just the tip of the ice berg. this reminds me of tennis. usually, if you are not in the top 50, you dont earn nearly enough but its very easy to fix a match and much much more profitable then placing "high" in some random challenger tournament. And its really easy to fix a match in tennis. | ||

Jokes aside though, dont you think its kinda hilarious that its only zerg and terran players that match fix? Now Life and bbong. Earlier: http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft/Match_Fixing_Scandal http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/2015_Match-Fixing_Scandal With this evidence the only way to be 100% stasticially sure to stop match-fixing is to ban zerg and terran from tournaments | ||

Catching all the brokers and financial backers is a good start but they need to catch the king in this game of chess to stop match-fixing. Sorry but the king of this game cannot be catched cause is Money. When money are involved this things will happen for sure, they can only put severe control to limit this as much as possible and try to educate well these boys. | ||

I just rewatched the series and it seems pretty legit overall. The more I think of it the more i believe that Bbyong had planned to lose the second game on purpose, while winning 1 and 3 but he lost the first one in a standard, back and forth macrogame in which it looks like he really wanted the win. If this is right in the end his matchfixing plan didn't even impact the series ! | ||

KeSPA needs to start caring about players. Right now they care only when something like this happens which is wrong. | ||
