lol. Brilliant Win-Win situation by ideas. Props to this thread, great way to release rage from STX fail. People should read the thread carefully and properly.

wow. blind fanboyism going on here.

but what really made me fall out of my chair for laughing so hard was this quote:

"Even if Jaedong wasn’t playing on Oz they would still have a 50/50 shot at taking thing."

even without jd they would have a 50% chance to beat cj/khan AND then skt1? ya, for sure



reasons in favor of oz:

1. jaedong
2. jaedong
3. ????
4. profit!!

seriously, ur whole reasoning is based on the fact that jaedong wins 2 back to back ace matches. in fact i am not too sceptical about oz´s chances against cj/khan, but against bisu and fantasy or bisu 2 times not even jaedong has even 50% chance of success. even if jaedong was a 5:2 favorite against both of them his chances to win both ace matches in a row would only be 51%. and he definitely isnt a 5:2 favorite over bisu.


next point: jd is in 2 starleagues aswell, so his practice schedule will be hellish. he wont be super-rested and relaxed. and yet another point: he does have to win his regular set aswell in the game where his teammates succeed to snipe 2 opposing players. against skt1 he could potentially face bisu or fantasy there aswell, in that case the regular set would be no autowin aswell. and against cj he might potentially have to win 2 back to back ace matches against effort. if he loses just 1 of them oz might lose. so against cj ur "jd will crush any1 flawlessly"-hypothesis might also prove wrong.
"What am I supposed to do against this?" - "Lose!" :-]

TBH i rather see khan or CJ in the grand finals, SKT vs Oz will just be a beat down unless Oz's player pulled some crazy shit and when your main backups are backho, hiya, and lomo says alot about your team depth.

Yeah, god forbid last season's champs win it again, with the same players. Looool.

OP is hilarious though. Most tongue-in-cheek hilarity ever. (But I do like Backho)

"The format has already proven to fully maximize S-class players." Maximize my ass,

Okay, I just did some math. Note that the scenario I used is not totally representative of what happens here. I don't know what conclusions you can draw from this, but it's still interesting.
Assume that for each game, Team A has 60% chance to win, and team B has 40%, except in a Super Ace match (not normal ace match). For the Super Ace match, the percentages are reversed.

Then, under the old Bo7 format, Team A would have a 71.0208% chance of winning. Under this new format, Team A has a 75.137% chance of winning.

If the percentages are 70/30 then Team A has a 87.3% and 83% change of winning; the winning percentage actually goes down, but not by much anyways.

The way it would actually maximize teams with one S-class player and little depth is if the final deciding ace match was a Bo3....which is what every STX fan wanted anyways.

So basically, STX feel gipped at the format because it allowed a less deep team to win, complained, and suggested a way that would make it easier for a less deep team to win.



I LOVE YOU
The original Bogus fan.

Oz will win Proleague, not only because they have Jaedong, who has a 200% win rate (he even wins games he doesn't participate in, hes so good), but they have the deepest, most clutch lineup of any team out there. One-trick pony teams like SKT and CJ don't stand a chance.

Are you kidding? You know Lomo isn't a great player in general right? Yeah he was ahead in that game but there is no way he threw it for JD. Gom = Individual league = Every man for his own greed

Winning GOM is like $40,000? Would you seriously not play your best against a friend/teammate if it involved that much money? Fuck I would d/c that game in an effort to get a tie if I was losing if that much money was involved..

XD

At any rate, given the format, Hwaseung's chances aren't half bad. Jaedong will have to play up to five televised Proleague games in two days, but that only improves the team's chances

Why Hwaseung Oz will NOT win the Proleague.

Because there's no way that 2 other Oz players can win games to take them to the Ace match.

Also, we all know who Oz will throw out as their ace. Other teams can just field a sniper to take Jaedong down. That is if Oz gets to ace in the first place.
