Winners league can sometimes look as if it's not a team league, but just aces duking it out. Also, even in the shortest "normal" format match we get to see at least 4 players from both teams. In Winners League sometimes you only get to see one or two players for several matches in a row. I like watching teams field a multitude of players who all have their own strengths, weaknesses and personalities. When Winners League came around this season I quite enjoyed it initially. But at the beginning of Round 5 I really wanted the normal format back. Maybe they should not have two rounds in a row. | ||

At this point a formality. Place, Team, Record, Game Diff, Games Remaining *1. SKT 38-15 +45 (1) *2. CJ 34-19 +40 (1) *3. KT 32-22 +15 4. WJN 27-26 +0 (1) 5. KHAN 25-27 -10 (2) --- 6. STX 24-29 -13 (1) --- 7. FOX 23-29 -9 (2) 8. OZ 23-30 -10 (1) --- 9. MBC 22-32 -15 10. ACE 17-36 -43 (1) Remaining: WJN plays FOX. KHAN plays OZ. OZ plays KHAN. FOX plays WJN and STX. STX plays FOX. Playoffs: 1. If STX > FOX, WJN, KHAN, STX make the playoffs. 2. If FOX > STX, STX is eliminated. 3. If 2 and FOX > WJN, WJN, KHAN, FOX make the playoffs 4. If 2 and WJN > FOX, WJN, KHAN, make the playoffs. 5. If 4 and KHAN > OZ, FOX makes the playoffs. 6. If 4 and OZ > KHAN, OZ or FOX makes the playoffs on game differential. tl;dr: WJN, KHAN are in. The winner of STX vs FOX makes the playoffs, unless: OZ > KHAN, WJN > FOX > STX and OZ ends up with a better game differential than FOX, in which case OZ make the playoffs.[/QUOTE] Woongjin Stars Report: Well they played somebody's B-team and stomped them. This is much better than the last lol-tastic match vs CJ Entus. At the same time, probable opponent KHAN is a much scarier proposition right now than KT, even if we're talking A-team lineups. Speaking of which... Tonight is for all the marbles. Or at least all the non-playoff marbles. OZ needs to win, and win big. Meanwhile, STX plays to clinch, while FOX plays for one last shot. Woongjin's rooting interests: I'll be perfectly honest. We don't want to play KHAN in the first round. For that to happen, Samsung needs to drop its last two games, and STX or FOX needs to win out. So I'm rooting for OZ to beat KHAN (unlikely as that seems), and FOX over STX since WeMade has a better shot at winning the game differential tiebreaker. Also I'd rather play Mind and Shine and RorO than Bogus and Calm and Kal, whatever their current form says. (And finally, I want to see FOX win because if we can't avoid playing KHAN anyway I want to see OZ make the playoffs and if STX wins tonight that's impossible.) | ||

Playoff participants are decided. 5th/6th place depends on whether KHAN wins or loses against ACE. | ||

playoffs without JD is just wrong For the Khan vs. Ace match January should seriously consider losing against Ace on purpose. KT seems much weaker than Woongjin Starts atm. KT has an injured Flash, an okayish Stats and not much else, Stars with Soulkey, Light with his improved TvP and Zero seem like a much tougher opponent. | ||

I'm fine with that. Stars vs STX gives Woongjin a better chance to advance as well. | ||
