EPTThe expensive players could be worth it because of the ace match bonus.
There are some potential ace players who are relatively cheap. Like light and free and leta. But who knows if they'll actually be played

I want to know who over performed and who under performed. I don't know how $ value is calculated. I assumed there was a formula, and not a subjective standard. You say it is up to the discretion of a mod. Can anyone confirm this? The Luxury Chaos Theory Typifies how the value is assigned. The "expected score" is a projection, so it has to be subjective. + Show Spoiler + On January 20 2010 19:21 Hot_Bid wrote: <font size=3>Luxury Chaos Theory: Origins</font> FPL1: Luxury Price: $6, expected to score ~30 points Luxury goes 3-6, scores 17 points, drops to $3 price Luxury just moved to KTF, and had a lot of hype surrounding this trade. He immediately disappoints all his fantasy owners. FPL2: Luxury Price: $3, expected to score ~15 points Luxury goes 10-6, scores 30 points, jumps to $5 price Luxury is one of the biggest gainers and boosts several owners into the Top 10. FPL3: Luxury Price: $5, expected to score ~25 points Luxury goes 1-8, scores 7 points, drops to $1 price Luxury single handedly trainwrecks several hundred teams. Luxury's next season $1 price seems to low, and we want to adjust him higher, but he sucked SO much in FPL3 that we can't bring ourselves to boost him higher than $2. FPL4: Luxury Price: $2, expected to score ~10 points Luxury goes 4-2 with many team wins and streak/breaks, scores 23 points, jumps to $5 price Luxury Alternator Theory is born. Luxury will alternate values between good and bad every round. Unlucky owners have chosen wrong FOUR straight times on him, but now, finally, they know what to expect. He's just had a good season, so he's due for a bad one. Many owners put him on their anti team. FPL5: Luxury Price: $5, expected to score ~25 points Luxury goes 7-2, scores 34 pts, actually exceeding last round's projection (price to $6) In true Luxury fashion, he does the most inconsistent, unpredictable thing for Luxury: he suddenly becomes consistent, and screws over all the owners who picked him for Anti. Now, with KT rising and Luxury doing well two straight seasons, many owners pick him up. FPL6: Luxury Price: $6; expected to score ~30 points Luxury goes 1-4, scores 6 pts, ends at $1 trade value In a big "F U" to all his owners, Luxury quickly reverts to his old form. Even though KT went 7-4, Luxury still sucked. Luxury Chaos Theory is born. Theorum states that Luxury performance cannot be predicted or compensated for. No matter what you do, he will score the opposite of what you predict. To save headaches and time, Fantasy creators will perpetually price him at $5. FPL7: Price: Luxury Price: $5, expected to score ~25 points Luxury goes ?? Don't know what you're exactly looking for in the performance in the previous season, but trade value goes up and down depending on the performance. The trade value is linked with initial worth and gauges how much the players are worth during the run. Hence, if a player is over performing (or simply getting better), the price will go up, etc. etc. | ||

With Winners League being over, BeSt will be relegated to map sniping, which bodes well for him, as his strong PvT and PvP will take over. Canata was just a fanboy pick, after all, I am his #1 fan. ZerO is the crutch of Woongjin, success or failure depends on him even though Woongjin has a deep lineup. Tempest for KT win points. I think free will do well in this format as well; he seems to be the RoRo/Shine of this season, many will put him on anti, many will put him on main, and he will tend to screw up both sides. I hope for the anti-free fans to regret putting free on their antis. Anti-team seems simple for me, I feel that Horang2 won't be successful, Jaehoon will be Jaehoon, and Saint won't get much playing time or lose. Dude canata is not going to be playing, he's going to ace but haven't been put on their roster yet | ||

Main Team 4 Crazy-Hydra2 Grape5 Horang211 Jaedong (captain)3 Reality1 sHy4 Hwaseung Anti Team 2 BarrackS5 Jaehoon6 KillerWell, i chose OZ and Jaedong beause i'm a die-hard fanboy, but with just 15 points left, i went for cheap good players. I chose SHy because i think he has the talent to become the best protoss in Oz, and he's certainly better than Pefectman. Also, a 40% wins player for just one unit is a real deal. I took Grape because he's quite good, but not formidable. It seems to me there's quite a bunch of good young protosses, none of them S-code material, but they will be very good A-teamers. but he's the second best protoss at Samsung Khan and he has a great teacher. With Stork going on a little slump, i think he could become even more important for them. Crazy-Hydra was a close call. I actually wanted to take Action, but i didn't had enough money... still, Action is as irregular as Crazy-Hydra seems to be, and i believe he has some talent (the nice all-kill certainly counts). The roster of KT is terribly small, so i'm pretty sure he's going to have a lot of play time.Horang2 is an all around solid player, with good mechanics. He's not really impressive, but for just 5 points, he's a good deal. Well, and here i'm with just 3 points and not erran players. That let me with Skyhigh, a good terran on a terrible slump, Sand two terrans that are not even sure to play. I took Reality because he's younger and seems more talented (and he also beat Ssak recently). For my anti-team, i took BarrackS because h's not going to see playtime, and if he does, he will lose terribly. s2 and Roro. But then, i realize Jaehoon was valued at 5 points (!) and Killer at 6 points. They are actually worst than s2 and Roro. | ||

Main Team 6 Calm4 firebathero3 Midas5 Mind5 Movie (captain)3 Shine4 KT Anti Team 4 great6 Light3 SsakFirst of all, i've always felt that KT was an imba team, and that an ace match situation is a gaunteed win. This may not prove worthy but I love the shit out of Movie despite his mediocre stats. Calm just 2-0'd his MSL group Firebathero will pretty much be a garunteed play on ACE, and he's been doing well Midas was cheap, and he plays far better than most of the other 3's mind 2-0'd his MSL group after a win against Stork I also love shine the same way i love movie, just not quite as much. Great just failed to get out of his MSL group, and was Overpriced. There's always a possibility of Light facing a protoss. Ssak, well, he's ssak. | ||

Main Team 4 Crazy-Hydra4 firebathero4 ggaemo6 Light5 Movie (captain)5 Mind2 WeMade Anti Team 3 By.Sun4 Jangbi6 KillerThought Process: CH: Has proven that he can flex some muscle, even getting an AK in WL. For 4 points he's pretty undervalued, though this may be due to his recent team switch I believe given a couple of weeks to recuperate he'll return to his normal level of contribution. FBH: Has been doing really well recently. ACE has to field him because they only have one other semi-decent player ggaemo, so we can expect some decent playing--and winning--time for FBH. ggaemo: Really the only person on ACE who actually wins games with any semblance of consistency. ACE depends on him, so we can see ggaemo picking up consistent wins in PL and a couple of 2 kills in WL as he has done so far. At 4 points this isn't a bargain, but is still definitely worth the investment. Light: Hasn't been on form recently. Has crazy potential for AKs but is slumping recently. Hopefully the change of air for him moving to Woongjin will help him move on. Don't think WJ would've acquired him just to let him warm the benches. Movie: Has the potential. Some say he only has two matchups that favor him but he went on a sick killing spree in WL for a while and I believe that he's got great prospects ahead of him. This is the gamble. Mind: s2 does well at 5 points but is too common of a pick. Mind's been playing well and will receive playing time, and win. FOX: They've got a potent roster. RorO, Shine, BaBy, and Mind all can take games off of anyone. Hopefully they'll have the consistency to do so regularly. Anti-Team: Jangbi: No. Not good. Some playing time, lots of losing. Killer: Overrated honestly. 6 points? He's not even that good and with a horrible ZvT to boot. By.Sun: Filler. Doesn't play, will lose. | ||
