I remember the last game (10 years, already?!) quite well... Life made shitload of small mistakes, mostly with widow mines that were tactically spread around counter-attack routes, which Life didn't care to clean. That resulted in huge losses that bled him into surrender.

He might have thrown the game on purpose.

Our we sure Life didnt throw? Seems like a good way to do it, considering no one in their right mind would bet on this guy.

The big money matchfixing was in the Korean scene. While matchfixing offers still happen for foreign tournaments, considering the likely low amount of money and how matchfixing didn't start getting reported until 2014, I'm incredibly doubtful. Additionally, unlike Korean tournaments where the match is advertised well ahead of time so the fixing can be set up easily, this was a weekend tournament. There's no way betting was fixed for this match, they would have had a mere matter of hours to set it up, during a timezone when Koreans should be sleeping. I find it doubtful if any bets were even open for this match given how short notice it was. EDIT: Just looked it up, the Ro16 matches SjoW and Life won to advance to this was played 5 and a half hours before this match. You're legitimately insane if you think a matchfixing ring are gonna be able to set up anything major in that amount of time late at night in Korea.

Thanks for the vid! The game is a little darker than usual tho, so even with my phone brightness turned up, the scenes are still difficult to follow

@EsportsStoryteller 7 ай бұрын

Yeah, it's the only footage I could find, so the final map in Life vs Sjow is a bit hard to watch :(

@matthewmanley2238 7 ай бұрын

I feel like most older tournament footage is super dark, probly nothing he could do about it

A lot of tournaments used to try cinematic gamma settings to make the game look "more HDR" in the early days. A lot of MLG streams from the old days have horrible contrast as a result. Afaik no one is doing this for a long time tho

I actually enjoyed this one even more than Soulkey's. Maybe because it was one single triumph.

I quite like your content! So niche.

@snowdrop9810 7 ай бұрын

This reminds me of Maplez almost beating cure but then throwing the final game from a won position. Though i dont think it was nearly as big a tournament.

The biggest upset I saw was Goody beating Nestea with bio. Goody playing bio is like Bly playing standard; it does not happen.

Едрит у тебя прононсиейшн. Я даже не знаю как характеризовать его. Вот у Скиллоуса типичный руссиш инглиш маза фака - он не понимает разницы между кровать и плохой и тп. Я, желая вам всего самого лучшего, рекомендую, всё таки заняться конкретно звуковой частью языка. Хотя у тебя и по русски своеобразное произношение. А то как у индусов получается - грамматика 5, но что говоришь разобрать нет возможности.
