Jaedong is Jaedong. Always on my team since he's my favourite player. Killer isn't that good, but he's been getting a lot of playtime as Oz tries to get him better and more used to live matches. Light is a solid pick in general, and has the potential to do really good. Same with Sea. Also has to do something with my like of MBC after watching Hyungjoon. Pure seems to be a free pick for only 2 points. Wemade has to play a Protoss sometime. MBC is solid and 3 points. Also, Hyungjoon. Anti: Bisu has been failing. Probably is going continue to fail. Iris is overrated right now. Don't think he's going to be getting much playtime. Snow got a few wins, but overall I don't think he's worth the cost. Opinions on my team?
BackHo is a gamble, I'm not sure anybody can say what's going to happen. Killer doesn't see too much playtime, and will probably see less since BackHo is back. Jaedong is guaranteed to deliver points but is very very expensive. Also he's cute :3
Light and Sea... I don't know what to make of them. They really failed R4 and dragged MBC down with them (well, there were some shitty Ace decisions, but meh...) and it could pay off big for you, or get you owned. Don't pick Pure, he hasn't been played for the last two months in PL and there's no reason to assume he will what with the strong T lineup for WeMade and Shine and RorO holding down the Z fort.
Snow for AT... bad idea. Look at the kid's record, and he's definitely going to be one of the breakouts.

backho will be like 6 points next round because of how awesome he's going to do, ok
haters gonna hate

not too sure wether stats or snow, any thoughts on the team?
You already have 2 CJ players, so it's probably a good decision not to get snow. I learned from my first FPL that it's a bad idea to load up your lineup with players from one team.
Your anti-team looks like mine, heh... except I have lomo instead of hyun (just to short OZ even more)

Here are my thoughts.
Value picks:
BackHo - will probably get some playtime since he just came back. whether he actually wins anything will be hard to predict, but at 1 point, he can't really hurt you that much.
RuBy - Last round he sucked because he pretty much only played T's and P's. His TvZ has always been A-class though, so as long as he faces more zergs he will be worthwhile at 2 points.
Sea - It's Sea. At 4 points? Sure he played like crap last round, but it probably won't last forever.
Potential breakouts:
Classic - went 6-0 last round, but mostly against scrubs. At 3 points he's pretty cheap and could prove to be actually good.
Snow - Everybody knows the game vs Flash. At 5 points, somewhat expensive, but he's definitely on the rise.
Mid-tier:
Horang2 - As someone else said, he's probably going to be hite's second best player now. Has a godly PvP and a cheesily unreliable everything else. Just hope that hite's coach is able to put him in the correct spot.
Action - Has been a really good player for a few rounds now, but hasn't quite output his worth in points. This season might be the one where he finally learns to transition to late game consistently, where his abilities really shine.
Carry players:
Amongst the 7+ points group (Flash, Jaedong, Kal, BaBy, EffOrt, fantasy, Leta), everyone is pretty much going to be worth their point value. The only question is if any of these people are worth slightly more than their point value. I would say that amongst this group, fantasy is probably your worse bet, and Kal probably seems like the best value.

2 1-pointers are just FAR too juicy to pass up...
Princess just went 6-0 in the offline prelims, and was picked up for the hwaseung oz a-team lineup
BackHo is back, I just don't see him not being a massive payout.
My anti-team I'm taking a gamble on
Bisu Best and Free, I'm still hoping for a continued protoss death spiral. the one I'm most worried about here is Free.
I had to drop hyuk off, he's been a staple of my teams for the past couple seasons, but he's just not worth the 5 pts he's at right now, so I went for calm instead (had 1 extra point)
Jaedong at 11 will still be worth it, as he'll be at the top as always :D
edit:
yea, swapped free for snow, it puts my anti-team at 14, but it's a better decision overall...

This is my first time playing along in the fantasy cup. Can anyone check out my team and say whether it's good or not:

+ Show Spoiler +
Btw: Why are so many people putting  Bisu in their anti-team? He's only performed badly at the last set of games he played and he's always in the T1 line-up. Can't figure out why :D

Be careful with that anti team. Both Great and Free tend to get a decent amount of ace matches. Your main team looks alright, but it depends on what you want to do. If you want to hang on to SKT1 for awhile then it might be a good idea to get more than 1 SKT player on your main team to reap the rewards of them, etc. It's all down to just who you think will do better this round than they did last round (Unless it's KT. Not sure why they cost 6).

welcoming inputs since this is my first time playing FPL, also does anyone know when GGaemo's transfer to ACE will be complete?
I'm pretty sure it's already gone through completely, he should be playing for them now but hasn't been shown in the June roster changes, so it's likely we won't be seeing him play until July.

Crazy-Hydra kind of wastes a point that could otherwise go to team points. He won't see any playtime on Stars since he's vastly overshadowed by Soulkey, ZerO, and Kwanro. It'd be better to choose somebody that's worth one point on say, STX or FOX and at least be able to pick up 7-8 points that you'd otherwise not have. fantasy is definitely, in my opinion, the flakiest of the seven pointers. It'd be better to choose somebody like EffOrt or BaBy, since they have a better chance of delivering. BackHo and Jaedong together could be worth it. Normally, it's rough choosing such an expensive player like the Dong since then you have a huge point discrepancy to make up but who knows, BackHo could be bonjwa. RuBy should get you some points, I think, and Sea is a steal at 4 if he stop sucking / is played / is played for Ace. SKT is solid for team.
Your anti seems fine.
Oh Bisu's there both because a lot of people on TL hate him and also because he severely underperforms as of late. He hasn't even been playing matches in the past few weeks... coaches have to have no faith in him, which is good for the likes of an AT.

Thought this about great as well, but I have the feeling JangBi and Stork may return, in which case they might pick up the ace role as well.

thank you, I think i'll swap him for Princess. do you have any other tips? I may eventually give up fantasy for snow and swap sweattoss or mantoss up to chintoss, will reach's end of service affect his availability in r5?

Hmmm, Roro anti-team is looking way too good this round. I mean six points!?!?

Main Team
5 Bisu (captain)
Anytime is a must for AT. I dare everyone to put RorO on their anti again ^_^

edit: @krndandaman
I personally wouldn't take Puma, not only is he on that losing streak but he has looked absolutely terrible in all of his losses. Midas seems like a bit of a gamble at 4 points too, old-school players tend to flare up for a month or two and then settle back into mediocrity, but he might still be worth his value. Honestly at 4 points there are better choices in free, Kwanro, Sea, etc...
Anti seems fine. Pretty much everybody has Bisu/great anti (or both) so even if they do win some your overall ranking might not drop much haha.
Jpak, I wouldn't be surprised if you happened to do really well lol. It could be like SKT's rape spree a last season. CJ is definitely the team to watch this round, I think they'll own it up. Lots of talent new and old, unslumping current roster, their old "legendary depth" is back.

@kyuukyuu
And I'm just gonna trade Anti-teams if I trade at all.

Maybe consider Iris over Hydra? IIRC Hydra doesn't get very much playtime.

I was on the fence, but my gut said Hydra, so I went with him.
