Not too keen on the format but I've been itching for BW to come back so badly that I'd probably still watch if it was a bo1 2v2.

Im not a huge BW fan or anything but I feel for them big time with this shitty format. Im glad pro-league is continuing but there is just no way this will generate the hype or viewership that previous formats did
There is always tomorrow nshs.seal.

-BO5 will return this season. In order to keep the new players playing in Proleague, they got rid of ACE MATCH system, so player who played in any of previous 4 sets cannot play again.


So sad. The future of BW looks really dark now. Not only have a lot of B-teamers been forced to quit, but they are also making it harder to play for the existing B-teamers. Like Hiya said, it's just a waste of time to try to become a BW progamer now, and this change just makes his words even more true. I don't know what KESPA is trying to do honestly. Pretty much all progamers prefered BO7.

T.T They want to see more players so they're making it a Bo5. Seems kinda counter productive. And I will miss ace matches sorely. Nothing more dramatic than an Ace match.

so worst of all worlds? Less bw (bo5) and no ace match. Why not bo7 with ace match. I thought players were happy with that.
Why would I play sctoo when I can play BW?

What I'm saying is that "ace match" is now sc slang for that deciding match. This is not gonna change for me at least - I'm not gonna start shouting MATCH POINT.


No you're completely wrong. Ace match = Ace match, Match point = Match point, but Match point =/= Ace match. You can call still call it what ever you want that's your own prerogative, but you are still wrong. Also don't act like you speak for the whole of the BW community, especially when you're trying to save your own argument.

PL now demands more skill depth in a team and more strategy in the coach's player selection. I find it dumb to call it bad simply because it's different.


Except it actually encourages the opposite since it uses a stupid Bo5 format. I hope you enjoy seeing KT only sending out Flash, Stats, and Action because that is all they will ever send out with this current format. This is just going to push even more B teamers and even lesser A teamers over to SC2 as they won't hardly ever get the chance to play. If they keep this format for more than a few seasons you can also expect the teams to cull their numbers by more than half as most of the current players will just be dead weight/glorified practice partners.

I guess the reason people are upset is because they wanna see flash vs jaedong (and alike) ever time kt and t8 meets. Personally, I would much rather maintain the mystery and hype that revolves around such good players. - Have them meeting be a special treat once in a while.

Again, with this format change you are going to see the top players clash so often that there will not be any excitement, hype, or "mystery" anymore around the players.

and most audiences preferred bo5 because they couldnt spend that much time watching a single match

edit: wow this thread is filled with a lot of whiners. its been said before, but proleague is a business, and what they were doing last year obviously didnt work out because of lower viewer ratings. with less matches and a smaller format (bo5) they want to trim down the focus and make each match more exciting because there are less games, which will hopefully bring more viewers.

besides, we get BW in the end anyway
