Winner of the PokerStrategy.com League
[image loading]
Pedro "LucifroN" Moreno Duran managed to win the PokerStrategy.com league to bring down $2.500 after 70 maps, with 46 wins. His last match against TITAN added him another 8 points ( final results 8:2 ) to overcome Kas eventually by 5 Points. With an overall score of 5 wins 1 tie and only one loss in the entire league, one can say that LucifroN well deserved this first place.
A few interesting stats are listed below. We wish all of you a merry christmas!

[image loading]

As you might see we have outstanding mapscores on Ohanas PvZ ( difference of +11 in favor of Protoss ), in Cloud Kingdoms TvP ( difference of +7 in favor of Terran ), in Whirl winds TvP ( difference of +7 in favor of Terran ). Please note, that the sample size of these stats is pretty low and therefore its hard to make any statement on the balance of those maps.

Out of all matches, the most often result was 7:3 with eleven times. Followed directly by the 6:4 result which appeared eight times , while all other results happened to be four times.



9 of the greatest players from 9 different countries
come together in a unique league system.

Every player will play 10 maps against every other player.
So you get to see 80 maps from every player!

Each map is worth one point.
The player with the most points wins the league!

We have 3 players from each race.
So you will see plenty of awesome games in every matchup!

This is the ultimate test of StarCraft skill.
Join us in the coming weeks to see who will become
the PokerStrategy.com League Champion!

Prize Pool: $8,900.

Players of the league have to play one match against each of
the listed opponents. Matches always consist of 10 maps
- all maps have to be played out.

Spectators are only allowed in-game if both players agree.
The exception are the official casters.

Every map win scores 1 point. In case two players are equal in score,
the rank is shared – and the prize pool averaged.
Example: three players share #7 means that they all get
($600+$500+$400)/3 = $500.


Map pool:

For every match, the order of the 7 maps will be determined randomly
in advance. The 7 maps are then played in the determined order.

At any time before the match starts (can be days or weeks in advance),
both players veto two maps each in ABBA order. The player listed on the left will be player B.
The 3 remaining maps are then played in the order they appear in the initial map order for the match.

Ourk comes to mind, I think he's the highest rated non-Korean that's played all 3 races recently. Might be TLO going back to his old ways as well, even though I'd rather he didn't.

That's what I thought too, good logic imo. Probable Zerg lineup is Nerchio - Sortof - Morrow.

1 from each country, Morrow & SortOf both swedish. So that isn't possible. Maybe Dimaga? (I hope Dimaga)

So I'm assuming the Random is Morrow?

10 Maps per match and 9 players are 80 games per player only, although I'd like to see Grubby vs Grubby
Don't like caster lineup very much but let's wait and see.
The spirits move me.
