Oh well, I guess I had a good first week, sadly effort is slumping and is my captain.
I thought I made good player choices except... STX losing record is hurting compared to the ~20points SKT has handed out.
I'll just stick with STX even though I get the feeling I should trade but oh well I've already dug myself in deep no way to recover might as well keep digging maybe STX will start winning and my players win games..

AT LEAST I didn't put Great on my Anti-Team

, I was very close to doing that.

Now my only goal for now, given that my team has realtively bombed, is to set the lead for greatest positive gains in trading.

I am ranked #60.

I didn't expect this to happen at all. I'm very pleased with it and it probably doesn't seem like something to get excited about. But I'm excited, I've never been higher ranked than I am now.

That's right, I've gone for a pure WeMade Fox team. It might seem like a risk, but one that I'm willing to take for two reasons. The first is that they are looking in good form. The second is for the kicks.

I've been lucky with really not winning more games and I think I might trade him soon. He's bound to start winning some time soon.

If I hand't traded at all I would still be top 20. Kinda unfortunate, but I really thought those trades through, so sadly I cannot blame it on anything.
#121 still not too shabby. Still four weeks to go.

MBC 3-0 Terran style and Leta not playing against Free/Losing in general would be kickass.

Classic not getting any playtime + losing wasn't too good (not really sure why I traded for him since I didn't pick him originally for exactly that reason, he didn't play too much in PL = sucks inhouse?).

Then (Z)

great had to recover from his 10 loss streak or whatever and start winning 2 games per match

, guess it was a bit predictable he'd get "some" playtimes seeing as the whole of khan is in a slump though AND I was sooooooo close to changing him out for violet before his streak, now it's ~Effort+ if you want him off your anti.

Difference between top 20 and top 650

I am seriously considering trading great for Leta on my anti.

On a scale of absolutely normal to banana, how insane is that?

I am beyond fucked right now.
Funny thing, is when I finally learned my lesson this round, Roro actually is an alright anti-pick so far, though appareantly, Really is even better.

great is playing 1 time only this week,I am going to risk the 4 points by not trading him.
Leta against ACE in 1 of the games so chances of him destroying you[if u get him] is very high

eSTRO really f'd me up this round. By sucking and also by not playing Classic despite all their other players sucking.

Jaedong playing 0 ace matches so far is also

. Stats getting matched against Jaedong and Baby is also

.

How much I wish I had Really on my anti instead of Hiya who I can't get rid of for anyone reasonable because he owned week 1. Although my main has killed me way more than my anti.

I had pulled off the trade of the century. The deal to end all deals. I had looked into the mind and soul of the SKT coach and I understood him. Reaching a higher level of consciousness, I could see exactly how he pulled off the triple 3-0's, and as I delved deeper into his mind, I knew - Bisu was going to play and win against ACE.

I would make the exchange that would blindside all others. Bisu, from anti-team to main in two explosive trades. No one else would have the depth of insight or the courage to pull off such a plan. I would leapfrog all unbelievers when he scored his 4 points, hurting my opponents with him on anti while scoring points for me on main, and leapfrog forwards in the FPL standings. Everything was in place, and everything would go according to the plan...

except Bisu lost.

So Bisu anti owners haven't been punished and I've been left holding an empty bag. Actually, it's not even an empty bag, but a negative one - a bag connected to another dimension that vacuums points away from my team and sends them into oblivion. Since the two other minor by-products of my genius swap went from wankers to winners last week. Oh Stats, ForGG, how could you.

If only Bisu had won, it would have been a masterstroke. Instead it was a hey-master-let's-have-a-stroke as I realize I've dropped another couple hundred spots in the rankings. Just another day of sucking at FPL.

20 minutes before deadline and im not sure about changes.

Best has a game against Fox where his tvp is sure to score four points, but now he is tradable for both kwanro and zero, who have two games this week.

Stats is tradable for Sea, who has two games and seems to be getting back on his feet.

I dont know what to doooo. Any opinions on this?

Edit: fuck it. went for sea and kwanro, i guess this is a make or break point for my team.

haha I feel ya bro, it's the second time hyun has done that to me. Pro tip, never pick hyun anti team in the same season I do, it's the only time he does well.
