you like your metaphors, so here is one for you:
take 2 boxers, one is the undisputed heavyweight champ and the other is a 6 foot tall paperweight who gets almost knocked out the first round and then for the next 4 rounds the heavyweight holds still and doesnt swing, at all. legal or illegal?
how about a jokey who holds his horse back for the first 2 races to then win in the 3rd as the underdog on a 1:49 bet? strategy or illegal?

you can name is as you want, its still staging a fight and its not only morally wrong if players know how to place bets. you can dress it up as like and call it strategy or might as well put lipstick on a pig, its still a pig.
First off your boxing reference is horrible. In this situation Riot would have been the heavyweight and fleur the other so to speak though the gap isn't that large; you're saying a stronger power is giving way to the lower which is not the case here. Also you're still using real world scenarios which involve different rules and regulations. (I think we already covered why its bad to compare the two, but hey; when you do you ever listen)

You can throw your morale standards around as much as you want, but in the end. There were no rules broken; thats all that matters.

Also there is no relation to fleur and I. I would have said the same if anyone had made it that far and played however they wanted to with the match.
