Team Magma's player admitted his involvement in the match-fixing
There is less than a week left before the start of the first season of the Dota Pro Circuit Regional Leagues, and right before it, the triumphant of the closed qualifiers in the Chinese region, Team Magma, who has achieved a ticket to the upper division, got a serious problem. It turned out that the team's mid-player, ??Chen "zc" Xiaofeng, was taking money for participating in match-fixing during his performance for Ocean.
Team Magma's co-founder and former professional player, ??Chen "Zhou" Yao, posted a letter on his personal Weibo page, where he said that immediately after the completion of the closed qualifiers, an anonymous person contacted him and tried to blackmail him with evidence of participating Team Magma's player, ??zc, in a match-fixing. ??Zhou didn't pay the blackmailer, and all information was passed on to Valve and Perfect World.
After that, Team Magma conducted an internal audit, during which it turned out that ??zc had indeed participated in match-fixing, which led to the decision to remove zc and find a new mid-player. They understand that the team may lose a slot in the Regional League's first division and comply with any official decision from Perfect World and Valve.
