Teams are also pretty expensive, with the exception of ACE. Yeah. It still seems confusing to a scrub like me who STILL WANTS TO WIN | ||

Main Team 2  Anytime3  firebathero11  Jaedong (captain)2 Modesty3 s23 sKyHigh6 KT Anti Team 5 Action4 HiyA4 HyuNReasoning: Jaedong is jaedong, so im hoping for some 4-0s. Anytime for 2 points is a steal, and I think he will preform well (though he didn't do too well in R2...) FBH can rake in some wins, pretty solid player and a good buy at 3 points. Modesty will be sent out for ZvZ snipes, so hopefully he can get one or two wins every match. Last round I picked n.die_Soo, and he didn't do too well. So I'm picking the next mediocre SKT zerg, s2! I'm hoping he does well as he sure did a lot better than soo lol. sKyHigh = well priced at 3. KT should do really well thanks to Flash, but I'm hoping his team can pull it together to help them win. Action is kinda failing, and so is Hiya. Can't believe HyuN is actually 4 points - what a steal for anti team. | ||

Main Team 5 Free5 Great2 Iris4 Mind2 Modesty7 Stork (captain)5 Woongjin Anti Team 5 Action3 sKyHigh5 SnowI found it really difficult to choose a team this time around. Maybe because everyone is fairly accurately priced (or just very pricey in general). Generally most rounds have the obvious "Stork & Leta @ 4, Flash @ 6" players to get but although there are a few overpriced players none stand out as particularly good steals at low prices. Anyway, preliminary team that I'm completely unsure about at the moment. Free seems like a dumb choice but whatever Stars ftw. Iris and Modesty... uhh... no comment. Anti seems like a no-brainer though, all three are stupidly easy to snipe and won't go on more than a 1-win streak (2 if they're lucky/Snow). | ||

Main Team 5 BeSt1 Canata (captain)5 Free7 Light2 Modesty7 Stork3 Samsung Anti Team 5 Action4 ggaemo4 KillerThought Process Canata as captain: Favorite player, but also allows for flexible trading options. SKT will do well in Winner's League, thus he will net me win points. Might get an appearance or two in WL, which is what anyone could hope for in a one-pointer. Best: Good streak breaker as he his strong in two matchups, also in SKT. Yes, he can get sniped by a Zerg, but for 5 points, decent value for him. Light: Can't ignore last season's 3 AKs, and he will turn around. This will be my most volatile investment. Sea/Kal could be a replacement so this team may change. Mulling over 7 point options. Free: Solid choice, also on a good day, he can compete against the best. Modesty: ZvZ sniper, and there sure are going to be a lot of Zergs. Stork and Samsung: Ace for Samsung, and starting to go on a roll. I believe Samsung is due for a turnaround in WL. Anti-Team: Killer: Never liked him, and JD-lite isn't going to do well. OZ will slump terribly as I don't see one-man teams going to dominate as much this season. Action:Ditto for Flash's team. ggaemo:ACE will severely diminish his skills this season. For 4 points, this was an easy anti-team choice for me. | ||

Even if it wasn't I'd pay to play it ^_^ Flash too expensive la Main Team 3 BraveIris11 Jaedong (captain)2 ModestysHy7 Stork4 Hwaseung Anti Team 5 Action4 Jaehoon4 PureHorrible Thought Process: Jaedong Jaedong Jaedong.... okay 19 points left lol >< Get Hwaseung too, 15 points left... Initially chose BeSt and Calm seeing as they were going for cheap and both were probably going to make heaps of appearances - BeSt is SKT's Protoss Ace of choice most of the time, and Calm well he just gets around the PL a lot. I also picked sKyHigh, 08/09 WL was the very first season of Proleague I watched, and skyHigh was dominating that, and ended with that reverse all-kill that broke my heart ><... then switched to Stork, believing all the hype, which isn't a bad choice regardless since he'll probably get sent out every game unless January feels like trolling again.This left me with a horrible point budget left to buy stuff, 3 points for Brave who has seen a lot of action in PL recently, 2 points for Iris since he'll probably get sent out a lot more often due to history/new recruit in ACE, 2 points for Modesty as a cheap ZvZ sniper (he was a 1 point wonder in R2), and sHy for 1 point Hwaseung player.Anti Team: Action and Pure were massive flops in 2010 of this season and were easy picks. Jaehoon is also known for fail, probably a pick in every anti-team I'd come up with on principle  .Pretty much, Action and Jaehoon remain from R2 anti-team, not going to jump on the RorO bandwagon this time and get self owned ^^.Additional Thoughts: I want to buy Anytime too, but then I'd be left with no Terran, and I can't find any 1 point Terran that I can reliably hope to get points with, at least sHy gets sent out every so often and is on JD's team.The only reason I'm not buying Flash over Jaedong is purely because of fanboy bias, with no OSL or MSL to practice for, I'm terribly frightened of Flash in the WL... who knows what he's capable of with so much time on his hands...Lots of Bogus antis this time, I for one think he's fairly reliable~Oh yea and + Show Spoiler + GO JAEDONG GO! EDIT: Woah I just realized I can get Anytime if I grab XellOs or something for Iris, woot go me | ||

Details about my team: tektastic Main Team 5 Calm2 Flying4 HiyA3 HoGiL3 sKyHigh7 Stork (captain)6 Hite Anti Team 5 Action4 Pure4 TysonMain Players: Stork (C): During winners league he always manage to able to take out 2-3 players before his teammates play but I predict that he will do a all-kill this season of winners league.Calm: Even though he lost to mind in OSL his still a good player but not against though opponents like JD, Flash, bisu but I could be wrong. Pretty much what ever I wrote for stork is pretty much the same for Calm Flying: Even though I haven't seen flying play on proleague this season I still have hopes that he will be able to play games even though free is on the starting lineup for stars.HiyA: HiyA the one that defeated JD in OSL but can he take games in WL against though opponents? and finally achieve the all kill for his team Hwaseung OZ. A very good TvP and TvZ but his TvT ehh kinda of sketchy but he could make it up for in WL.HoGiL: The ZvP of Hite Entus but can you still call him that? Hogil isn't the same hogil that he was in Hite sparkyz days only to get send for PvZ, but now his able to be send in ZvT as for his ZvZ its still not there. Since its winners league im pretty sure the only roll that his gonna get is a ZvP sinpe and losing the next game. hey his 3 points I mine as well get a ZvP sinpe than horang2(which is 4 points) PvP sinpe.sKyHigh: We all know that skyhigh can do all-kill and reverse all-kills in one game but can he even play a game in WL?, with Leta taking the terran spot light on Hite Entus what can skyhigh do for them? All I can say is if there about to get all killed by some player send him cause he will reverse it. One word for skyhigh is MOMENTUM once he gets that he will start become a key player for hite entus.Anti Team: Action:Im pretty sure im gonna regret picking Action for my anti team but his been sucking in PL so I hope he brings that with him on WL. PurePure yet again he will always be on my Anti because his not GOOD. TysonTyson I just picked him cause his a MBC protoss and I know MBC protoss is lacking wins. | ||

hyvaa. In all other formats, he's less then subpar and really doesnt shine to well. But when All-kill comes into play, this man is a solid pillar of results. Every year, he does awful on his own but everytime All-kill rolls around, he blows everyone out of the water. Whatever it is, He's fantastic for his price. | ||

He's also not on eSTRO anymore though so he probably won't get sent out as much as he used to. Still arguably a nice 1 pointer choice~ thanks for pointing that out - even for STX team wins. Also, (IMPORTANT) since Canata got removed from the SKT roster for January, does one still get points from him if SKT wins? | ||

If he manages to baller it up in those circumstances, I'm all for declaring him the new WL bonjwa, but I'm not counting on it this time. | ||

Main Team 5 BeSt He is a beast, not easily sniped and on SKT1. The best 5 pointer 3 HoGiLUnderrated imo, something tells me he'll get a lot of play time/snipes. 2 Modesty (captain)Good ZvZ, his team is deep but neither kal or calm promise that much. He definately will get sent out and win a game or two. Captain since he wont be traded anyway. 4 RorOAll around FOX zerg, definately can hold his ground against whatever is thrown at him. I dont trust mind,pure or midas really... 7 SeaThis is a big gamble, this spot was originally stork's but EVERYONE has stork, and if you want to win this you have to be different. (see motbob's how to win liquibet) Sea is a monster and cannot be sniped easy, he has not been great at WL format, but im sure he is feeling hungry atm 6 ZerOFor 6 points seems like a really sweet deal now that he can ZvZ and win. 3 Samsung With stork,brave,turn and great, khan actually seems pretty fit for this format. Anti Team 4 ggaemo3 M18M6 ReallyReally is overprized, and what can i say, i do not believe in ace | ||

Jaedong or Leta since both are my favorite players right now.Well I obviously took Light with Sea being in a mini-slump right now. I blame Shine. It was kinda an easy choice. MBC Hwaiting =) Now the real trouble began. In the end I bet that Calm and free are gonna roflstomped all the their opponents. I've been really thinking about getting great and RorO instead. However I like them both way more :DI surely made sure to take Anytime not only is he a total baller but he is also the best P on Oz right now !. The last choice was very hard to but I tookHoGiL instead of firebathero  As the Team choice STX gogoggogo !!!! Too get a good Anti is kinda hard too. Most people seem to take Action with the performance he displayed today they might be right in doing so. But I strongly believe that MafiaZerg will pwn faces in the WL.So I took Really since he will fail utterly ! There are many 4 Point Protosses who all suck hard lately. Sorry JangBiI doubt you will get out of your slump any time soon. Also remember last WL when Jaehoon owned everybody ! Or does my mind plays tricks on me :D. Well last the spot took M18M his performance wasnt impressive at all | ||

Air Force Rising Main Team 3 firebathero (captain)4 ggaemo7 Kal3 M18M3 RuBy7 Stork0 Air Force Anti Team 5 Action4 Killer4 Violetfirebathero himself is decent choice even in competitive teams, so this is no-brainer. ggaemo is obvious addition since he is sent out frequently. Struggled between M18M and Much but thought the former was better choice b/c of gut. I liked what I watched in few games he played. Added RuBy to reap benefits of +1 for team win, and he does manage to snipe better players in some occasions. Remaining huge pool of points were utilized to take Kal and Stork. I believe they'll turn out to be excellent investments considering their current streaks and the Protoss-favoured nature of the maps. I don't like Zerg as anti since ZvZ is volatile and one of them sniping good zerg player with a streak can quite hurt, but couldn't see much alternative anyway. My policy is that picking an frequently played player big no no, so avoided cases of clear aces like HiyA or Bogus (not much other players to replace them while in except of Killer, you can expect - say - Princess to take his place comfortably). This is my first attempt at fantasy proleague- hopefully I can do better than average  | ||
