Oz (9) played an extra match than SKT (8) so Bisu still has more potential games to play thus higher trade.

Jangbi for JD. Rooofl. Epic trade doods.


I don't think it's quite as easy of a trade as it looks.

Assuming both of them get sent out in week 7 against average opponents, Oz should win 1/2 and Khan 2/3. Jaedong has to play Kal and Jangbi is against Shine/Ruby. Kal isn't bad, Jangbi is on a 6 game PvZ streak, and Ruby is on a 6 game losing streak. Looking pretty good for Jangbi, but let's be pessimistic.

Jangbi 50% chance to win games:
2 team points
3 points expected value from 3 matches (EV of 50% chance to win is 1 point)
1.5 ace points (3 matches * 50% chance of ace match * 25% chance to be sent * 4 points (average with 50% chance to win it))

Jaedong 66% chance to win games:
1 team point
4 points expected value from 2 matches (EV of 66% chance to win is 2 points)
1.5 ace points (2 matches * 33% chance of ace match * 50% chance to be sent (he's only been sent 1 of 3 this round, but come on it's Jaedong) * 4.6 points (66%))

Expected value of both players is equivalent: 6.5 points. Trading costs you a point as well. Jangbi is also the higher variance play since he has more opportunities to win/lose. I suppose if you're sitting in the top 10 with Jangbi and want a safer bet, the trade is good, but if you really need to squeeze out some final points, Jangbi is the way to go.

I can't believe how long this ended up being. I'm such a nerd.
Of course, you only live one life, and you make all your mistakes, and learn what not to do, and that’s the end of you.

Wheeee my FPL Team is fucked!

Main Team
(Z)EffOrt for (P)JangBi
CJ Entus for Woongjin Stars

Anti Team
(Z)ZerO for (P)Stork

I'm already ranked 1500 so I might as well make some crazy trades to try and get huge points and maybe finish in the triple digits

I'm in a bit of a dilemma that others here might also share. My problem is whether or not I should trade off stork.

Now, stork is great, and I'd bet on him to win a match almost against any other player right now except Flash. The only problem is that he isn't gonna be sent out for the match against ACE (loool January doesn't think they need stork to beat ACE), so his trade value is somewhat inflated with respect to his point-generating potential.

The people I can trade stork for are:

Bisu
Really
Violet
Roro
Leta
Sea
Effort
Jangbi
Jaedong

and everybody else down from there is a scrub compared to Stork (Zero is not a possibility because I have him on my anti-team as a result of a series of unfortunate trades).

Bisu is playing like crap so I don't want him.
Really has difficult opponents next week (fantasy and flash) so he's a no go.
Violet is playing against Action and Crazy-Hydra, ez opponents but his PvZ is his worst MU and if the games ever go to the ace matchup he won't ever be sent out.
Roro isn't that great and he has to play fbh, who sucks but is good TvZ.
Leta has only two matches left (hite has played 9) and he has to play Effort this week. No good.
Sea is like stork, only being sent out for one game this week.
Effort is playing Leta.
Jangbi is playing against Shine and Ruby. He'll probably beat Ruby (who sucks TvP), but might lose to Shine.
Jaedong only has two games left, one of them is this week against Kal, so it's not a sure win.


As I see it, if I want to try to get more points, trading away Jangbi for Stork is my best option. It'll all hinge on whether or not he'll beat Shine. But it's a gamble, so if I want to be safe, Stork is better since he'll probably beat Pure this week (and might be sent out for ace).

Thoughts?

Stork -> Bisu is starting to look great.

Trading away han on antiteam was also a good decision.

Top 10 is still within reach, come on!

I expect to drop out of the top 10 tonight because I will be gaining comparatively few points. 815 or Odin on anti was good, and I also resisted the JB for JD trade. Really, I'm not sure Jaedong can take down Kal at the moment and Jangbi's being hell of reliable.

EDIT: Whoop, nope, pleasant surprise.

Man picked one of the worst anti teams ever and my trades involving At get me in more deep shit, even though my actual team is very solid (besides sparkyz) Guess I know what to do for next time.

Wow this is the second time I've traded STX away in FPL and that it's killed me (the first time was when I traded them in R5 of last season when they went 10-1). Basically I'd be in 16th or 17th right now if I didn't trade STX for SKT. But it's not as bad as trading STX for Oz last time lol...

meh getting really on anti just becouse of his match vs flash, which of course is on my main, wasn't the best idea:/ at least flying and fantasy trades actually paid off for now.
