The Devil, eh?

I haven't been this excited about PL in such a long time. Woongjin finally has a decent team and it looks I'll finally get to see them in the playoffs instead of 7th place. Good start!

The line about Boxers soul being in the hands of the devil is pretty insulting and unneeded.

Everything looks so different with only 10 teams, wonder how the finals will work this year (hopefully they get rid of the stupid format)

Hopefully it`s here to stay.

It`s painful to see OZ in this state, merging with Samsung would be awesome but probably not happening. Also, I never realized how awesome Woongjin sweaters are.

I sense an unnecessary undercurrent of Anti SC2 sentiment in the OP.

I like the Bo7 format because it helps give us more games/etc, but it definitely killed teams like OZ. Before at least they could get Jaedong to lead them (yeah it's a 1-man team but at least it gave them a chance), where-as now every game is going to end 0 to 2 - 4 because Jaedong/HiyA are the only players who can get wins.

You can already tell that just by the way the rankings are going, depth of the team is equal to their ranking overall.

A year ago KT may have been in the same situation if it had turned into Bo7 no-all kill format (I miss the all-kill format. ), but now the players who couldn't seem to get a win suddenly can win quite easily and they've got just as much depth as the rest.

I think some people are assuming its a one or the other situation, so they're vilifying the competition as much as they can. You'll see the opposite stance in the SC2 section, about Brood War an outdated and inferior game. It is pretty annoying for those of us who enjoy both.
I bear this sig to commemorate the loss of the team icon that commemorated Oversky's 2008-2009 Proleague Round 1 performance.

I seriously feel bad for Jaedong

He is an incredible player, but hes forced to play second gun to flash.

And with the bo7 format, his team will never win.

You still gotta respect the man for keeping his determination regardless
Oz fighting!
