bring back 2v2

but I think 7 games series are great, We wake up at like 3am, lets make it worth it!! But decrease number of days a week so more rest of players. Need 2 rounds of SPL for epicness.

3-4 days, bo7 is fine.

the 5-day proleague was to accomodate the 12 teams, but going back to 8, makes it so much logical to reduce the number of days being played.

4 Days of Bo7/week and a Dream League featured match weekly
Go with 2 rounds of WL BUT not consecutive rounds (R2 and 5 in a 6 round format); or else go with 1 WL round only [If 1 WL round only, more Dream League matches]
I'm okay if KeSPA and OGN want to try out showing SC2 games because it will force GOM to improve their production quality, but make the two scenes stay separated from each other.

wish they would change the silly play-off format where 1st place only plays once and 4th has to climb all the way up

I know that the 3 day final format wasn't successful, but it really is quite amazing. To see Fantasy demolishing Jaedong on two days gave me goosebumps. Flash beating best twice in one day, not so much.

What's the best BoX format for SPL?
Other. I like the Bo7 format because it's allowed many talented rookies to grow and i would like a reduced schedule for the progamers 4 days a week.

Where is the option for "keep Bo7, ditch 5 days per week" ? That is what I think would be best.

I don't know why people care so much about less than 5 days a week. The past few seasons, it was 5 days a week on two stations. That's 10 games every week. Even if they were to keep broadcasting 5 days a week on OGN, the max IMO would be 6 games(5 games seem difficult from a schedule standpoint).

The most natural would either be 4 days a week, with every team playing once, or 5 days a week, where half the teams play twice and the other half play once. This would mean a double-header for one day(likely a weekend). Either way, the number of games for everyone's favorite team or player should dramatically reduce regardless of how many days they play. So why get so worked up about it?

Why keep it five days a week...there's just too many games and the season becomes over-saturated to the point of apathy for me...

I think 5 days a week on one station instead of two is a good amount. Last season a lot of the time it was like "shit what to watch what to watch..." when two potentially good matches were on at the same time. A lot of the streamers would stream the other match in a window in the corner and I would try watch two games at once if both looked good, but it's pretty hard to watch two things at once.

best of 7, 3-4 days:

progamers need more time for individual leagues (1 less day = check)

teams are bigger than before and therefore need more of an opportunity to field more players (hence best of 7)

WL is exciting an all but i'd rather have more players get the chance to play. it adds more randomness and chance to the mix, rather than just having one team's ace bash everyone's head in

Bo7, 3-4 days a week. With 2 less teams and 1 less round of WL, the schedule should work out nicely.

So why get so worked up about it?

Viewing it from a broadcasting PoV:

Assumptions are a minimum of 5 rounds (4 rounds regular and 1 round WL)

At 4 days/week 1 match/week day:
4 matches per week
28 matches per round = 7 weeks/round
Each team plays once a week

StarLeague broadcasts can fit into a full Wednesday/Saturday or Saturday/Sunday schedule.

5 rounds = 35 weeks of regular season with 4 weeks for breaks between rounds + 1 week WL Playoffs + 3 weeks SPL Playoffs (1 week delay before Finals) = 43/52 weeks with ProLeague

6 rounds = 42 weeks of regular season with 5 weeks for breaks between rounds + 1 week WL Playoffs + 3 weeks SPL Playoffs (1 week delay before Finals) = 50/52 weeks with ProLeague

6 rounds is not possible at this rate.

5 rounds makes sense with 9 weeks between the end of the season and the next one

At 5 days/week 1 match/week day + doubled weekend:
6 matches per week
28 matches per round = 5 weeks/round (1 week of 4 matches)
Each team plays once a week for 3 weeks and gets 2x a week for 2 weeks

StarLeague broadcasts can fit into a Wednesday + free Weekend day schedule.

5 rounds = 25 weeks of regular season + 4 weeks round breaks + 4 weeks for WL and SPL Playoffs = 33 weeks of ProLeague

6 rounds = 30 weeks of regular season + 5 weeks round breaks + 4 weeks for WL and SPL Playoffs = 39 weeks of ProLeague

6 rounds makes more sense, with 3 months for the off-season.

Thus the most viable choice is either to do 5 rounds (1 round WL + 4 SPL) on a 4x/week schedule or 6 rounds (2 rounds WL + 4 SPL) on a 5x a week schedule

Bo7, 4 days a week (each team has 1 game a week) i think is the best thing to do.
