"Hi, I’m TiP XiaoWeiXiao, I feel very sorry to everyone. Because of my ignorance, I did not realize ELO boosting is a such severe incident, so it happened. "

Yeah, ok, sure, even bronze 5 players knows that ELO boosting is a big deal and often met with harsh punishments, and they don't know how to last-hit.

If you're going to apologize for getting caught red-handed and letting your fans down at the worst time possible (with the finals incoming and whatnot), by all means do it, but don't bullshit them.

From what I've heard, Elo Boosting is extremely common and virtually never punished for pro players in China , XWX included. I would imagine that he's been doing it for years and has only now become an issue since he's an NA pro player. If he's been doing it for years in China, it wouldn't shock me at all if he simply assumed that NA treated Elo Boosting as seriously as China does; that is, not at all.

Bronze 5 players know how to last hit. They just suck at it. That, or their support Karthus decides that he should spam Q like he's in a solo lane.

It's only too bad he wasn't caught earlier. Maybe TIP could be fighting for relegation in stead of seeding then.

This is the problem with paying children to play a video game. It's just like C9 Sneaky being so toxic on stream and C9 Incarnati0n's past DDOS'ing antics.

These children make a mockery of esports and set the bar for the League community as a whole. They should be permabanned - none of this letting them back after a suspension crap. Maybe if we punished the top-tier players more harshly people would take notice.

XiaoWeiXiao will just keep ELO boosting to make up for his loss of income. He'll just be more careful about it.

That's quite dissapointing. XWX was my favourite from TiP. It's really sad to see him doing such things and than talking bullshit ..D:

Holy *&^%. Talk about a hijacked thread. Just delete this sad POS.

IDK what the punishment was but I hope it was harsh, a lot of other people legitimately suffer from Elo boosting and what he has done has very directly harmed other players. Some people only ever consider themselves.
