Sure there aren't all that many games played, but wouldn't it be frickin' awesome to go and say, "Ah yeah, I just signed Pusan for 50k, and now he's in my 2v2 team with Savior"? Actually, I have no idea how fantasy leagues work at all, but the idea of a Starcraft Fantasy League is sexual. Edit: If this has already been done before, then I'm a dumbass. | ||

This is different than the fusiondf guy posting before me, saying he would vote against Boxer to win the liquibet!! | ||

I was thinking of something along the lines of this site:http://www.fantasycongress.com/fc/ has anyone tried it? If they can make that work surely we can make fantasy starcraft work. Here's what I have in mind. At the beginning of the proleague season, you pick a team of 6. 2 players for each race, and for each race, you pick one veteran who's been playing a long time and one rookie that hasn't. That would help make sure that people don't all pick the same players. Then, as the season goes on, you get points like: 1 point for every win in proleague 1 point if that player's team wins a match 1 extra point for winning an ace match 1 extra point if their team wins proleague 5 extra points if they win the match that wins proleague 1/2 point if that player is part of a winning 2v2 team 1/2 point if they win a showmatch like superfight or whatever and maybe some stupid points like 1 point for using a really cheesy rush 1 point if they win a game by complete luck 1 point if they win a really one sided game 1/4 point for playing, even if they lose Thoughts? | ||

The trick would be to think up a creative scoring system, so it's not just a matter of predicting who will win and who will lose, because liquibet has that covered.

I like the idea of basing points on how they win a game, but that would get really complicated if we most quantify every aspect of a game. Should we award points for really close games? What if one player wins an upset? Do we factor in map imbalances? | ||

I've always wanted to get in on these things.generally speaking; -you get a salary cap -pick X players -players get points based on stats -you get ranked by total points The problem with starcraft is there aren't stats to generate points for, only win/loss. Whereas, say basketball you have points/assists/rebounds etc etc. | ||

Should we award points for really close games? What if one player wins an upset? Do we factor in map imbalances? Well you'd wanna keep it kinda simple, so I guess the only question is could you judge the issue pretty easily and would it be fun? So, some of the ones I suggested might not be possible, and I don't know how you could fairly judge whether a game was an upset. You could do "really close games" though, with an extra point if they go over, say, and hour. For map imbalance, you could also give an extra point if at least 100 matches have been played on the map and that players matchup was won less than 40% (meaning, if your player is Z and they win against a P on a map where has only won 38% of ZvP, you get an extra point). | ||

Maybe a team could be set up to rate people, on a scale of like 1-10 in each matchup based on the last two or three games they played and that could be included too? | ||

Usually in fantasy games people just turn that into a dollar value, no difference really though. | ||
