During a personal stream, Singaporean esports player Daryl 'iceiceice' Koh Pei Xin claimed that most Filipino players are involved in match-fixing.
He stated that the reason for the poor reputation of the new generation of Chinese players is their involvement in match-fixing scandals. Koh alleged that 90% of Filipino professional players in Dota 2 have been implicated in such scandals. He emphasised that he has never been involved in match-fixing due to his reputation for integrity, and noted that even Tier-1 players are implicated.
Daryl 'iceiceice' Koh Pei Xin has been active in the Southeast Asian competitive scene since 2022 and has been a content creator for Bleed Esports since November 2023.
