Clearly you didnt pay attention to bw last season. Jd's tvz is god tier currently and he dominated flash last season. Jd's pvz used to be god tier and he can that back whenever he decides to practice it.

So if Jaedong can recover his ZvZ...

What's scary about this team is JD no longer have to do everything. He actually has a very, VERY good supporting team members that can win on there own. That's why this is so scary. We have always wondered what will happen if JD has a team he can rely on. This is it.

They have an ex SKT Head Coach that won titles not to mention. This team is dead scary.

Oz disbanding may have come as a shock but for several months, Fox and MBC players knew about the possibility of their teams disbanding. Hopefully with a more positive training environment, not to mention higher salaries and better living conditions (for the MBC guys), they will perform even better in the upcoming season.

good team but still cj is strongest on paper by far. I think at least with this new team jaedong can get into the playoffs for a change

I would agree CJ has the best all around team from top to bottom. None of that matters in PL because its ace match setup rewards teams with a true #1 ace player with solid supporting cast. Look at the two best PL teams in recent history skt and kt. Both have true ace players with great supporting cast. Even Oz a few years back nearly won PL because of JD alone. Its a star player driven league and its also why stx tried pretty hard to get JD back when he was FA even though they arguably had a stacked team with a solid zerg lineup.

I would rank it skt, kt, team 8 in that order for this upcoming season. Team 8 has a very good chance to win it this year if JD can fix his zvz.

AH YEAH JAEHOON. Jaehoon is about to be tearing it up again in proleague. Its quite hard to hype him up as good as he is.

Team Kespa looks scary. I'd love to see a CJ vs KESPA final.

No more SKT - KT!

I honestly expected a picture of Jaedong and something like nuff said. I feel ashamed.

KT until the end, but I'll be rooting for Kespa Dream Team against anybody besides KT. Such an awesome lineup.

I WANT BROODWAR NOW. I AM SO STARVED.

I think this team has a serious chance.. Jaedong always needed some pressure off his shoulders; now he has a chance to be more effectively used in Proleague (like how Bisu is) rather than being totally predictable. Here's a little bit of thought as to how it will affect player choice;

I think Jaedong's ZvP is probably his best matchup like other Zergs, but the funny thing is he almost never plays it hence it always seems rusty. I think out of the players who play every game, his ZvP is probably one of the least played matchups... and when he does play it, you can see the other team usually intended for it (ie: it's either Bisu or someone with a planned build). Now imagine his PL stats if he can be positioned to face many weaker P's in the manner that Bisu get's so many PvZ's.. just for comparison Bisu played 21 of them, compared to Jaedong's only 10. The SKT1 coaches were smart enough to manage to get 21 games on his best matchup compared to only 10 each vT and vP.

If Jaedong's team manages to get him used like that he will be amazingly well. They now have BaBy and Sea to be able to discourage vZ snipers; previously, it didn't matter if teams sent out zergs to try and ZvZ because Oz didn't have anyone else dangerous if they guessed the wrong map. Now they got the ability to be a vZ powerhouse, and use the strengths of each player to their best; Sea/BaBy are very versatile and JD can be used to try and target a weak playe; JD will no longer be the targeted player he will be used to target, it's a scary prospect.

It's going to be very interesting how this plays out.

Great writeup, but you should have saved the 4 horseman analogy for a better quad-team, ah well good enough

This won't happen. I have a feeling, that because of this Kespa messing around, Guys didn't practice at all. So don't expect much even from a quite solid lineup. In fact I think they won't perform well at all for some time.

Also this team gives amazing practice partners for Jaedong's ZvP and ZvT. Jaedong is already practicing ZvZ with Killer. His ZvP partners was pretty bad in the old team(PerfectMan,sHy,Dear). But in team KeSPA, Jaedong have MBC protosses Jaehoon and Tyson. At least they are known as decent protoss players! For ZvT Jaedong is getting Sea and BaBy instead of HiyA/Bee. Both better than HiyA/Bee and has pretty amazing ZvT.

I'm just wondering, is there any specific reason why you would only practice with people in your team? They are going to practice with each other in a team, but will they do that all the time? Can't they practice with someone outside of their team?
