T1 would rape literally all coach battles. Send Oov for insta-win and occasionally Kingdom when Oov's bored. Anyways, back on topic. 2v2's were fun to watch (Pain in the ass to live report but fun to watch). Certainly quite a changeup from all the 1v1's we see in Indiv. Leagues, and other games in Proleague. If 2v2's were to be abolished, BO5 1v1's with spontaneous lineups would be great to watch. BO7s in the regular season would simply be too taxing. | ||

This is terrible. KTF need to get more solid 1v1, esp no Reach or Yellow. "Are we boned?" | ||

If 2v2 were to be removed, I think I'd watch even less Proleague. It's fun to see something different from time to time. It's a good thing for TV when Yellow/Reach/July get to play. I wonder if this has anything to do with OGN and MBC getting their ass handed to them in 2v2  | ||

I think the reason that they would increase the number of games is so that losing the 2v2s would not decrease the number of players that each team has to use for each match. In fact, with 7 1v1s even more players will get their chance to play on the big stage which I think of as a good thing(Greg Fields GOGO!) | ||

I think they should just make more good 2v2 maps. Most of 2v2 on Hunters are mass zeal/ling vs mass zeal/ling  . | ||

really all they need to do is reinstate the rule that teams cant use the same race on a given map twice in a row. its all the mirror mu's that are making proleague stale. | ||

worst case scenario you have the same number of mirrors, half tvt and half pvp which is still better than all tvt. | ||

Though hard to implement, a 2v2 team style (UMS maps where you always have your partner by your side of the map) would make better games and thus, more entertaining. I also support the idea that one channel stays with current format and another one has the "winner stays" (so you can always choose which format to watch). | ||

Question to Idra: what do you guys in Estro and other progamers think of this? My guess is that most people are positive about it - more chance for a decent, although not top player to at least gain televised game experience. Another consequence of it - competent offline partners being more important, since we would have 6-7 players preparing for their proleague games, which requires over 12-14 people participating for each match. Of course this doesn't mean more money for players, unfortunately. Just experience and extended practice ground for individual leagues. Lack of 2v2 should be good for pros, since 1v1 is what brought them to their team and 2v2 is niche, kills 1v1 skill. Is 2v2 treated as a disliked service for the team or rather one other way of contributing for weaker players? | ||

Although I'm not terribly disappointed that 2v2 would be cut, it would be nice if they drastically changed how 2v2's are done. Island maps or even RRvsRRs would be great. | ||
