Perhaps they finally realized that they were flooding the market. This is mostly good news.

I liked last year's format a ton, but it seems weirder to me that the season is <1month from starting and they haven't decided on a format yet?? Do we know when this is all going to get rolling yet?

This is the biggest news in quite a while.
Most changes are pretty good, my favourite being more winner's league.
Not too sure about the bo7 though.....sometimes for me the matches seem too dragged out. Even watching four games in a row seem to take too much time/gets boring for me sometimes...especially if they're long games.

edit: on second thought, bo7 would benefit the players though. it'll definitely give more chances for different players to come out and really allow the players that aren't the top 4 of team depth to have a chance. this seems a lot better for many teams.
I still think from a viewer's perspective bo7 might be too long

Hmm I liked last year's format fine too. But if the progamers are really overworked then I guess I understand.

I'd have thought GOM going down would have fixed the overworking thing though.

Also less seasons means less FPL seasons
MSL, 2003-2011, RIP. OSL, 2000-2012, RIP. Proleague, 2003-2012, RIP. And then there was none... Even good things must come to an end.

I want up to 3/race. It seems right, and I don't like the race limitations.

With the best 3o5 format, I favored the requiring using one of each race.
With best 4o7, I'd rather just have no race limitations, since it wouldn't make a terribly huge difference.

Well by doing race balance, it will bring out the full team player's potential out. I hate seeing players that retires because they don't get any play time.

Sounds good for the most part but I'd make a few changes. For race requirements, I'd go for 1 of each race AND no more than 3 of a single race. The two of each race is crazy some teams don't even have 1 quality "insert race" let alone 2.

As for the winners league, I wonder if it'll be too much of an advantage/workload for one-man-teams like Flash and Jaedong. What if the winners could only win a max of two games. Could be a bit more strategic for coaches to figure out the right two map matchups.

l10f, awesome job. Thanks for keeping us up to date on this ^_^.

In respect to the changes, I approve all of them. The race requirements one is a bit tricky though... I'm not sure where I stand on that to make it fair. One of each is fine, but I'm not sure if I want anymore regulations than that.

It is impossible to be a citizen if you don't make an effort to understand the most basic activities of your government. It is very difficult to thrive in an increasingly competitive world if you're a nation of doods.

I really like these changes, especially the change in the PL format. Hopefully games will be more interesting this way.

Also, l10f , you've been a hero these last few weeks, translating all of these articles. Thanks!

I think it would be neat if they kept the minimum one of each race requirement. Let a team send out 4/1/1 if they want to. This would have the effect of letting teams become race-specialist teams. I think it's neat how in football you can have teams that are known specifically for running or passing or defense. Why not have a format that allows a team to become known for their zerg play (for example) instead of having every lineup be extremely similar.

All they really need is a system to make sure mirrors aren't played so much. If they can fix the mirror problem, I will be happy with everything else.
