What happened to Shine ? And also KT again gets the better deal of the draft...after Baby , Mind and Wooki are like the 2 best players from Wemade . Just the thought of Mind practising with Flash kinda scares me . This is great news non the less . If STX can get their shit together , they do have talented players then there will be no more weak teams in PL .

All player salaries were adjusted to higher levels than last season.


This is also good news .

Thought i hope the 20 or so undrafted progamers can manage some decent deals with the progaming teams .

KT looks pretty imba now with Mind, and lol at SKT picking up more zergs. I hope KHAN picks Hiya. They need him to fill in the spot of firebathero. Hyun would fit on KHAN really well too. If he retires I'll be a sad panda.

Honestly speaking has classic been winning his TvZ now days ? Ruby at least has a strong TvZ win rate and that could help stx in that match up . Midas on the other hand his win rate is over 60% all time in last year proleague . I disagree that you are calling the MIDAS a mediocre player .At least midas was field in more frequently than classics appearance in proleague .


Classic is a much better player than Ruby. I really hope STX keeps giving him the chance he deserves, because he's one of the smartest and most creative Terrans around, and his TvT/P is really good, plus they need Classic more than ever now that Kal is gone, since he specialize in the same matchups.

I don't really feel convinced by the new team. JD and Killer on the same team is cool and all, but I don't see why it's so amazing pairing Jaedong with Sea and Baby. The latter 2 are kind of mediocre terrans, Sea basically being light minus amazing TvZ and Baby being stupidly inconsistent. Really pleased about Roro to Khan though (Khan has basically no decent zergs) and also happy about Mind->KT. SKT has way too many mediocre Zergs, they need another Terran.

You need to re-read the OP. They're just care-takers until a sponsor is signed on. They're doing this so that PL can start soon with 8 teams instead of 7.

I agree mostly with your statement. Except your Sea analysis >: D

Sea is really just the more balanced version of Light, with healthier winrates in TvP and TvT. Near 60% winrates overall and definitely Ace player standard.

Sea's "well-rounded but not elite at any matchup" trait makes him pretty much the worst type of Ace player you could get. At least Light can be matchup up against Jaedong, Hydra, Zero or Effort and be expected to win at least 50% of the time. Sea would be the underdog against pretty much any other team's Ace except for Air Force and STX. Fortunately it doesn't matter anymore because Jaedong has better vT, vZ and vP than Sea. As a #2, Sea is as good as it gets besides Fantasy.

What? Are you judging by simply stats or actually watching the games? BaBy is very good and has tons of potential; like Sea his record is packed full of the strongest opponents too so it's not even quite as bad as it looks. Both of them were often the ace for their teams which makes their statistics look weaker.

What is it with you idiots with some ridiculous wrong view of what KeSPA even is? It needs to be stated on here once and for all so people fucking understand. How the hell is KeSPA making a new team, paying the players and keeping them employed taking advantage of anything? If you're not going to give them credit for this then you shouldn't even watch the upcoming PL considering they are the ones making it all happen.

At times over the past two years, I was ready to proclaim Baby a potential new King of Terran worthy of dethroning Flash. Obviously that has yet to come true. But, he has the multitasking ability of the best of the best (up there with Bisu and Flash, imo) but he still needs to figure out better decision making. He's still quite young though - probably the youngest of all Terrans who have made a Ro16 so far. Baby/Ty is a huge benefit to the new team. He is an easy Ace choice when you are expecting an anti-Zerg to combat JD and you throw out a multitasking Terran machine instead.

Everyone is really stoked about the players... but I'm kinda excited about the coach... I was very unhappy with Oz's coaching last season, and if this coach is as good as some are saying he is... I'm very excited! I really think Jaedong's less dominant play stems (at least partly) from the loss of Cho, so if the dream team can have a bad ass coach... I will be stoked. Plus, I think Baby's inconsistency stems from a similar problem.

Coach Han (Oz) is also part of the dream team coaching staff now, assistant to Joo Hoon. Not sure how that's going to work out. Personally I'd have chosen Pusan, but then again I'm an MBC fan.

"besides Fantasy" sry oov isn't around anymore so the last two words are obsolete. in a bo7 where jaedong cannot play and win the 4 games required to play, a well rounded player like sea is good enough
