Oz DEFINETELY benefits from this the most. With Anytime still in Ace, they really don't have a Toss, especially with Backho still injured.

WeMade likes this too, since they can go triple Terran.

SKT1, despite the fact we go LOLSKT1Zergs, still would want to send Hyuk once in a while if the situation calls for it.

All I expect these rules to add are to make the games sloppier and safer (they won't know who they're up against) though it won't be too bad as we see from WL. Also there will be more mirrors...

I like the removal of the 1 race each match rule but overall this is a dumb move........again kespa fucked up. Who would go line up to watch a match that they don't know who will be playing in. At least if they release the lineup and people see that its Flash vs JaeDong more people will go watch.
Hope is the first step on the road to dissapointment

Obviously Kespa did not take FPL and Liquibet into consideration when making those rules

FYI, Proleague originally played like this. Maybe they're experimenting to see if it still works. If they notice that they have lower average ratings, they'd just revert back.

The hidden lineups are meh, could add excitement, could make it a bit more confusing, hard to tell. The race restriction removal will only be good, however. How can anyone complain about knowing that the 4 players who go out each day are there because they are playing the best at the moment, not because they happen to be playing the best among their race.

SKT is just kinda failing all around these days, they might as well send our their Zergs. After all Hyuk is the Schrödinger's cat of Proleague.

Seems like it might be more exciting, especially when there's less snipers around. However, removing the race restrictions might make some teams increadibly stale, and increase the number of mirrors, which would be terribly boring. Then again, due to different strengths in races between the teams it might not.
Should be a good thing overall.

i think there could be more snipers its just a matter of if the team can guess what set they will be played in..

Agh, I don't like this at all.

I mean, it could be good, but I just spent HOURS fine-tuning my FPL team, under the assumption of the old format.

I wonder if this makes mirrors more or less likely?

These changes make it more exciting and benefit the players who depend more on their fundamental skills rather than careful preparation.

I am looking forward to this new format

if your complaint is "this is bad because of my fpl is gonna suck now" you are not really taking the right attitude towards this. Also you still have time to adjust your team lol.

Looks good, but i am going to hold off until i see for myself what happens

I still think these new maps are a HUGE DEAL and a big breakaway from the recent map style. im SUPER looking forward to them.

This is a far superior setup for FPL. The old style of FPL was full of whorish trading to make sure your players are all playing this week. Now, you're actually betting that the players you picked will be good enough to play and win this week.
My strategy is to fork people.
