Season 15

The liquibet world lost a lot of potential points with Proleague shutting down, but thank the heavens that SSL found its way back to us! This particular season was quite an interesting one. Many tournaments that I've never made LBs for made their debut: Ting Open, Nation Wars, Super Tournament, and VSL Individual League.
Speaking of Super Tournament and VSL... Did anyone else notice how badly LBs got screwed up in rankings thanks to these 2 tournaments? I mean seriously... If you go look at VSL Ro16 and Super Tournament Ro16... All the favorites that SHOULD have won and all the favorites that had the MAJORITY of everyone's votes... Did not make it through... These two tournaments alone changed history for LB SC2 Season 15 in such a significant way that I didn't even think was possible...
None the less, congratulation to the people who did steal off valuable points by going against the norm. You dared to go the route that most people avoid, and it paid off in the end.

And of course, as heartbreaking as it is, this needs to be done...

For the 5th time in a row... soO believers missed out on 7 crucial LB points...

Alright, so here we go. Just like always, let's look at the Top 10 people who stood above all the others!

I'm really not sure what to say here other than the fact that jy_9876543210 probably accumulated a lot of points by believing in lots of players that people intentionally chose not to believe in. Everyone please look up to the sky as we all comprehend that the person who got the last laugh in... The person with the right to gloat... Is none other than our LB S15 winner.

So without further ado, CONGRATULATIONS to jy_9876543210!!!

Thank you very much to everyone who participated for Season 15. Season 16 should be starting up soon so stay tuned and get those bets ready! (j/k it's already started. R1CH the wizard at it again~)

Congrats to those who got top 10. Less close than I expected going into this season.

Thanks for all the work! Always enjoy it.
The VSL Ro16 and Super Tournament Ro16 really fucked me over. I think I was rank 16 or such before and 215 afterwards. Feels bad man!

Top 100? I'll take it.

I do love these recaps, and I really enjoy just having this competition available among the community. Thanks for doing these, it's appreciated.

Let me take a look at my statistics of season 15:
Points Percentage 64%
Voting Percentage 67%
Hottest Voting Streak 14 Correct votes in a row
Worst Voting Streak 4 Wrong votes in a row

Compare to season 14:
Points Percentage 60%
Voting Percentage 72%
Hottest Voting Streak 14 Correct votes in a row
Worst Voting Streak 3 Wrong votes in a row

So basically I improved my decisions on important matches with high points, but still poor on the other matches. Maybe I can do better next time?
Anyways... No more talking,
*grab my trophy*
*kiss my trophy*
Thanks everyone!
Cheers!

I was pretty sure I can get at least top 10 this season but then Impact happened.

Got #42.
For someone that doesn't watch SC2, that's pretty impressive, especially if I was top25 for a while.

NOICE ! #8 Kreygasm

Congrats to everyone for this season and especially the champion. Even though I feel like this was much more random than previous seasons due to "top" players often losing to what seemed like "lesser players" every week. (Like Losira over Ryung and Classic, Impact over herO... WTF)..

Good luck to everyone for this new season
