Sigh, i wonder what's their reason for getting rid of the ACE match system. >.<

Personally i think that's pretty much the high of any intense BW game >.<

Too not get rid of developing players. It worked in 2009-2010 since there were 12 teams. But with only 8, Bo5 with Ace would mean too few players get fielded. They had to go Bo5 since Bo7 was too long for Korean fans.

No Ace Match? FINALLY. That means a TEAM should be strong and not just one player. And I speak this sincerely, I am a Jaedong fan and a Oz fan, but I found extremely annoying a team like that reaching 08-09 finals just because of this ACE Match system.

No finals? You're kidding me right?

A deep team could always get a deserved win if it simply took the match before it went to the ace set.

No ace match is absolutely retarded. It almost always guarantee the top players matched against each other and it was the finale which is what viewers want to see: the big matchups. Taking away the most important game in a proleague match is beyond comprehension if their goal is growing casual interest in Korea. Having a match end on by.Hero vs Sun does seem to bear as much weight as if it ended on Bisu vs. Jaedong. And if they really wanted to have more players be active in each match, why not keep it bo7? Doesn't make too much sense to shrink the format this much when the league itself has suffered from heavy contraction.

This is the nerf Flash/KT and buff Team 8/Team Kespa format. Coincidence? I think not.

Should have kept Bo7 with ace match. That way they keep the excitement of the ace match, while also providing the opportunity for rookies and unproven players to get a chance once in a awhile.

Also, like many people have said, the teams are all deeper so there would be less chance of seeing boring games between B teamers on a regular basis.

You guys remember that old jokes?
Flash wins GOM it shuts down,
Flash wins MSL, MBC shuts down,
Flash wins PL finals, and BW was supposed to shut down,
Well now Flash win too many ace matches and WL so they are removed too.

Wow i seriously just started hyperventalating for a second there.

they just changed something i thought would never change.

I can't believe they are getting the ace match, where the aces from both teams would come out and face off. that's what being an "ace player" means, you play the "ace match". I can't believe this at all.

I guess we're gonna have to accept this in our lives though. that's all we can do. It might actually be a good for team dynamics. FPL will be less exciting though .

Shinhan leaving as a sponser would definiteley explain this kind of things though.

That broadcasting schedule is actually a really good one though. I think it's actually the best possible with 6 matches/week.
maps seem cool and that's a good day1.

it was last year too. a bo1 in this case refers to a best of one , best of 7 (most likely) . the bo3s in semis refer to a best of three, best of sevens.

if that makes sense.

Only thing I really don't like is the removal of the Ace match. Otherwise I don't mind the bo5 over bo7.

This will make Fantasy pro league different though. Top players can't be nearly so expensive if they're guaranteed 2nd game and extra points for Ace match is removed. Interesting.
