I'm not sure what makes that relevant to what I said. I was just pointing out that the lineup is still set before the match begins. I agree with what you're saying, yes. But the map list is both predetermined and publicized, whereas the player list is kept secret. | ||

 By.Sun wants to become good in PvP to help balance SKT Protoss line  Bisu and his PvZ is looking imba - even when he is losing a game he manages to comeback and win it. So he is 9-0 this season in PL with one game to go in 1st round against Oz. Kwanro is now on a two game losing streak, so s2/Hyuk are next in Zerg line to play. | ||

I don't claim to know the answer. However, I would like to know for sure whether the coaches can make quick decisions or not. | ||

However, I would like to know for sure whether the coaches can make quick decisions or not. That was the way it was after the scandal happened. There were a lot of posts about this on the forum. Originally the list was created ahead of time and published ahead of time. They just stopped publishing it and instead kept the matches a secret until they happened. However, now that I am looking around the forum I am seeing a few recent posts saying what you guys have been saying. I'm not sure what the original source is or why they would make that additional change now but you might be right. I guess they could have slipped that in there at the beginning of the new Proleague season along with the other changes like Bo7. I didn't see anything about it until now, though. | ||

Sure coaches try to guess who will play on which map but I don't think they know until it's announced for everyone. Yep, interviews point to situations where coaches actually have more than one player prepare for the same map (or slot in the lineup). But it's rare. The players are definitely not fixed before the game because a Kespa referee goes to each coach before a match to pick up a piece of paper with the coach's player choice. You'll see this once in awhile, because the broadcasters don't always focus on the bench when it happens. On November 13 2010 21:59 mustaju wrote: Fine. I'm willing to concede that it was either better decision making on a level I don't really understand, or luck today. In general, most SKT victories are deserved. As is this one. Doesn't mean you should treat us as walkovers, I think. Whoa...my comment shouldn't be construed as a slight to STX at all. I just thought attributing SKT's victory to luck was a bit dismissive of the strategizing and preparation involved. | ||
