Is this the first time we get to know the sentencing for Life?

really, this is so bad, there is so much money in gaming and games are played by kids without education or mentors. they are easy targets.

If you have read the threads about these match fixing scandals you should have noticed that the people that approached these progamers were punished as well. Iirc most of the people arrested weren't progamers themselves.

Young or not, Life's illegal actions were especially unforgivable because he did it while still at the top. I mean I can understand that Yoda would do such a thing because he wasn't performing anymore. When you're a professional player and you're on the down slope, I can understand (not approuve, but understand) that you'd do this kind of stuff.
But life was still a very, very good player, probably top 5-10 Z in the world.

I'm glad he gets fully and extensively punished by the righteous arm of korean justice.

The jail time etc. was already disclosed earlier, but it's the first official confirmation that KeSPA banned him.

Indeed, fuck the haters who criticize Life's decision to throw games in order to get cash, damn KeSPA for conducting an investigation upon learning of such activities, and to hell with the court for giving a sentence based on the Korean criminal law.
It takes a fool to remain sane.

Life should stream SC2, learn English and just compete in foreign tournaments. He's banned by Kespa, not the world \o/

Except a foreign team isn't going to go anywhere near him because of the matchfixing. I highly doubt he'd get an athlete visa for the US with matchfixing in his criminal record.

Most streaming platforms work with KeSPA and don't let match fixers stream.

I think he will get over it. After all, it's a teenager mistake, albeit a hard one.

Next time he better remember this.

What? He took money to throw games, how would you even take money to fix a match so that you win it?
