I think they wanted to make the total number of matches played the same as last season. So since there are 2 fewer teams, they added 1 extra round. I like WL format, more exciting. =)
Bo7 will be a huge problem for Jaedong-Oz and ACE though but good for Hite-Entus cos more players from their team will get a run.
BO7 is cool but bad for all the good players, it means that there is no way they'll get a break for a week. Unless of course their team wins fast or loses fast.
Interesting. Why are they moving the start times around? If I remember right, on Friday and Saturday nights (in the states) the proleague games were earlier, around 11 EST, is this the same thing thats going on here?
bo7 is awesome, more players will get experience in televized games and teams will have to focus on depth instead of just relying on an ace + random win.
BO7! This is great! More players in teams will be able to show their potential. It would motivate them a lot being able to play in televised matches rather sitting on the bench.

There's no MSL any more? Details please.
While I'm not absolutely sure about this, it's probably because MSL has always had a hard time getting a sponsor and now that the legality of running a league is questionable, they couldn't get a sponsor in time, since gretech is most definitely not giving them a new contract.
I really like this new change in format especially 2 rounds of WL and Bo7 format. Right now it's just too damn easy for Oz/KT who only have to win one round thats not Flash/Jaedong. With a Bo7 it'll be more of a team league and deeper teams will be rewarded. And for teams like Oz/KT/MBC, there are still two rounds of Winner's League so they're not completely fucked.
Doesn't seem to be much of a time slot change either unless I'm very mistaken. Long live PL!
I guess KeSPA is sending a message that it won't back down. Bo7 means top players will play every time, though the burden won't be on them alone since the entire team can now contribute much more then before and fewer games will go to ace. Sounds like a hectic schedule and if they aren't careful more players will defect to SC2. That being said, KT vs. SKT1 on saturday!! Let's go Action vs. Bisu!
look at the stx coach round 5 added like 10 years hite now looks like voltes v and it seems their coach stole his suit and kal seems to be siphoning off inches from other stx players free didnt get the "look macho message" and jds like, "i couldve been practicing..."
