SKT - 1 lost on purpose...

yonggon··2 votes·2,591 views

I feel SKT - 1 lost on purpose. I feel they lost on purpose based on the fact they performed the worst they ever played, the fact is they won worlds a 4th time people would be very upset saying that worlds would no longer be interesting and predictable. them losing would be more interesting and bring attention that the 3 time worlds winners lost. I feel that if they won the e-sports scene would lose viewers and the e-sports wouldn't be as strong. also a 3-0 stomp is just suspicious

That makes no sense at all. SKT T1 stands for Samsung Korean Telecom TEAM 1. They're Samsung's main roster. They represent all aspects of the company. Samsung Galaxy only represent their phone brand. Samsung couldn't give less of a shit about how entertaining a random e-sports tournament is for a group of random spectators. They'd want their main roster to perform well.

Go ahead and call it #Rigged or #Scripted if you want but the fact of the matter is that SKT played badly for the entirety of the Knockout Stage (with the exception of Faker). Huni and Peanut have always been inconsistent and the bot lane was under-performing for the last couple of weeks. Koreaboos BTFO'ed.

SKT actually stands for South Korean Telecom. But even still thesee are rediculous claims

The same people who were saying that SKT payed MSF & RNG to lose are now saying that SKT was payed to lose to SSG... I swear the human race is devolving back into monkeys...

I honestly expected a bit more from SKT fans. I never thought I'd see the day where they'd be so much in denial that they had to make up such an excuse. Nobody reacted like this when EDG beat them at MSI 2015. Nobody would say "Faker was payed to play LeBlanc and lose to Morgana" and honestly right now they're sinking themselves to the level that some (not all) TSM fans are in.

One would think they'd lose with dignity and holding their heads up high but nope...

It's my fault. I dreamt they would lose in spite of my huge love for the world's best player. I wanted them to win. My supernatural ability didn't though. :(

Yea right. Fakers tears were Fake as well. Lets make the e-sports more interesting by losing. Nice mentality.

League e-sports is already huge. And regardless of SKT winning for the 4th time or not, will not curb the hype of the game. Every year, Rito changes the games. Even if the meta is only the 15% of the champions. The game itself changes alot.

Anxiously looks for obligatory esports fans hinting that this guy might be a conspiracy theorist

They definitely we’re on Something... Skt winning or losing wouldn’t change Esports, Not even the slightest. Only conclusion is Skt were paid for losing
