Blizzard plans to allow Blitzchung to collect his prize money after all and reduce his suspension.
“I want to be clear: our relationships in China had no influence on our decision," wrote Brack.
Brack went on to say that, since Blitzchung did not break any rules while playing the actual game, he’ll get to collect his prize money after all. However, he’ll still be suspended. Now, though, the suspension is six months instead of a year.
