Australia. A country known for its beaches, a million animals that could kill you and now apparently, a ton of esports match-fixing?
In 2019 alone six low-level CS:GO matches were allegedly rigged. Up to $30,000 has allegedly been won off illicit bets, five search warrants have been served and six people have been arrested so far.
And we haven’t even gotten to Overwatch yet.
What in the hell is going on in the world of Australian esports?

this is actual such a good channel. honestly keep it going guys
not only in esport, in real sport as well :v
Overwatch you say…..
I read the title at "matchmaking problem" because we have that, too.
Australia has an incredibly toxic gambling culture. This is no surprise.
this all stemmed because australian esports is trash. There is so little money and talent in the scene that owners are looking towards other kinds of revenue to pay their debts ….
I thought it said Astralis. I'm disappointed.
I’m sorry but that shirt is so ugly is disturbing me
Mate, aussie full of cheating dogs.
E-Sports in Australia has no money in it, people won’t play top level for free
People be acting like Australia is deadly I live here it’s the best country
30k is not enough money to risk going to jail. If you want to do something illegal just become the CEO of the top 4 banks in Australia
Aussies never play fair, basketball, boxing, eSports you name it!
Should probably change the title from, "match fixing problem" to a "gambling problem" Australians spend up to 20 billion a year on gambling so I'm not surprised this mentality trickles down to our youth who are trying to pioneer eSports here
that vic police logo is wrong nobs
Your Aussie accent is more British tbh
Good vid though, I like that your covering this because very few people know about it even Aussies
I thought tittle says Astralis has a match-fixing problem"
Please don't stop looking into overwatch league contenders.
3:08 xD great video
don't know why you seem surprised. as long as someone thinks they can get away with doing something wrong, they WILL do it. human nature, yo.
Australian eSports basically isn't a thing
Fuck those shitposting Aussies.
Something something * Criminal dingos on an island * something something
that Victoria Police Badge is from the Victoria in Canada not Australia
im just gonna bet on the underdog in aussie leagues and win a shit ton money?
The way you pronounce Melbourne is so weird
Being an aussie in comp games was always tough back in the day. Matchmaking was always american host.
Finally a video with a good topic take a like
To be aussie you dont say fookin you say facking
Whats the namrle of the video with Josh?:D at 3:05
I prefer poisonous Spider over Matchfixing, thank you
What esports scene. We have literally nothing here for esports
Greed is real here in Australia,
This is what happens when their is no snags only beer
It’s because there’s no competition here and so people can’t live on Cs so they fix it’s not good it’s not right but it’s happening
aussie esport barely exists lmao
