Jay banned Indefinitely for match fixing

Riot Games has banned LGD’s mid-laner Chen “Jay” Bo permanently from competing in all professional events organized by, Tencent, and Tengjing. Jay was banned just days after being accused of match-fixing in the LPL, China’s provincial League of Legends league.

The League of Legends officials formed a special team to investigate the incident. The whole match-fixing scandal came to light after the LGD esports club reported a violation of rules by their mid-laner Chen Bo, ID Jay. The discipline management team published their findings on Weibo.

Based on an investigation and evidence collection. The League of Legends professional event disciplinary management team has concluded that Jay was engaged in unprofessional conduct that affects the integrity of LPL games. 

Riot Suspended Jay from streaming League of Legends

According to the disciplinary team, Jay was found guilty of match-fixing, and the action can’t be justified or neglected. He was guilty of violating the integrity of the leagues and must be punished for his actions, said Riot. As a result, Jay will be permanently suspended from LPL and League of Legends. He won’t be allowed to stream league of legends on any streaming platform. Additionally, Riot, Tencent, and Tengjhing have imposed a permanent ban on Jay and he can no longer compete in their esports events.

Since LGD Gaming was the one, who informed about the player’s unusual behavior and suspected him of match-fixing in the first place. They were out from Riot’s radar of brutal but necessary punishment.

The screenshot clearly indicates the mid-laner intentions were not aligned with the team’s interest. He was negotiating for financial aid for losing a fight at the Rift Herald. His actions demonstrate his values as an individual and he is the only one accountable for the consequences.

On one side we have players like Jay, who prioritizes money over dignity. On the other hand, we have legends like Faker who denied a $20 million offer to focus on his game. He won’t be attending any official league tournament in his life and the only thing remaining as a legacy after the incident is an embarrassment of match-fixing and a 16th place finish.
