hmm... i traded GuineaPig for GuMiho, but i'm having a hard time deciding what to do for my second trade:
HuK > Lots Don't know much about Lots, but he is a leadoff, and it seems like oGs is never going to play HuK...
imHappy > Byun I think Byun could get at least a couple of kills, and IM isnt playing this week
Slayers > Fou Fou is most like going to win at least 4-2, but i think Slayers will win as well, and I am keeping my points high then.
What do you guys think?

If FOU AK FXO, how much FOU's price will increase ?
The schedule :
FXOpen e-Sports vs Fou Our Utopia good chance of +8 Fou Our Utopia vs ZeNEX the problem is here...FOU a little weak vs protoss, it could go very bad (but also go well) F.United vs Most Valuable Player Most Valuable Player vs Prime Fou Our Utopia vs StarTale Most Valuable Player vs Team SCV Life

The tradevalue formula for teams are the same as for individual player: TradeValue = ( GamesLeft * Salary / 5 + 5/9 * Score ) * GamesLeft
Currently fOu, - GL = 3, Score = 0, Salary = 4
- TradeValue = ( 3 * 4 / 5 + 5/9 * 0 ) 3
- TradeValue = 7.2
At the best case scenario where fOu 4-0 FXO, gaining 8pts,
- GL=2, score=8, salary = 4
- TradeValue = ( 2 * 4 / 5 + 5/9 * 8 ) 2
- TradeValue = 12.09
fOu 4-0 -> 12.09 fOu 4-1 -> 9.87 fOu 4-2 -> 7.65 fOu 4-3 -> 5.43 fOu 3-4 -> 4.31 fOu 2-4 -> 3.20 fOu 1-4 -> 2.09 fOu 0-4 -> 0.98
Speaking of team trades, I am wondering if there's an optimal point where jumping off to F.United will be worthwhile. Since F.United is at an extremely cheap tradevalue of 5, it is theoretically possibly to jump from a reasonable team's last week straight to F.United after week 5.

What do you guys think? If Nada would've lost vs Keen I'm 99% sure they would've sent out Huk next that game. Pretty sure we'll see Huk play.

Yes! GuMiho! Glad it payed off I didn't trade him for TheStc last week. What sucks, though, is that I thought I had the perfect anti-team now, with Sheth gone and FruitDealer and Trickster without a team, and now they're both still on one of the teams that has a whole lot of games left to play. -.-
Dammit, why couldn't FXO pick them up.
|
well, traded Guinea for GuMiHo. This better pay off, unlike my last two trades . Also would help if MMA could get me some points :D
|
damn it the only player I can trade for Gumiho is SC, what to do :/.
|
do you guys think I should trade Hero for Lots?
|
Is there a way to change the captain? Seems like putting my hopes in Sheth was a really bad idea.

In order for PuMa to be successful against slayers he's going to have to take down Alicia, and possibly Frozen depending on well the team thinks his TvP is. You can be rest assured that SlayerS is preparing snipers to take down Alive and PuMa as the rest of their roster hasn't posted many significant results or even displayed many respectable games. Not to mention that with all the in-house practice of the SlayerS team there has to be at least a few that are VERY confident in the vs T matchup on multiple maps. I think expecting 2 wins from PuMa next week is an optimistic prediction. That series will likely go 4-3 or 4-2 in SlayerS favor and PuMa isn't a good pick to have for this matchup. The big point scorer for the next week is going to be whatever player gets the biggest streak from fOu against FXO. I would say the same about ST but ZeNeX has really been posting results in both this season of GSTL and other korean-only tournaments. Byun and puzzle have also really shown impressive play. I wish I was more familiar with the rest of the likely players from their team to be able to make a good decision for this fantasy pool. All I can do is hope that July (an original pick of mine) sees some play and does well in the series. It's a very hard series to predict IMO... I don't think beating Squirtle 2-1 and MC 4-3 makes TvP his worst match up. He's also beat HongUn 2-0, Sage 5-0, Younghwa 2-1, Puzzle 4-1, Tiger 2-0, all within the last 3 weeks. If anything I'd call that his best match up right now. I mean Alicia is PvT is very good but I wouldn't put PuMa at any sort of disadvantage right now. He just 2-0'd Min recently too who is the best zerg on SlayerS. I think it's all gonna come down to beating him in TvT with MMA/Ryung/GanZi. I think in the end SlayerS might take this week 4-3 actually. Which is good cause I want PuMa's value to drop so I can pick him up afterwards :D
Damn, I didn't realize PuMa had so many good results in that matchup; I should have done a bit more research before I said anything. All I saw were the replays from his match against ST_Tiger and I was pretty unimpressed. Oh well, I guess we'll see how he does this week ; )

There's 10 weeks of group play, last of which ends on first week of September. Then there's play offs. If they continue the system of syncing GSTL and GSL in parallel, I would guess season 2 would start in mid-late Octorber.

Here is what I think I'm gonna do. GuineaPig for GuMiho Jjakji for July
Since fOu will win they will be > 5 trade value so I can get F.United as my team on week six. Yes I know they aren't likely to score big points but fOu would only have 2 games left so it's still the best option for me.
Next week I can trade TheStc for Tassadar who is a beast, and trade Sage to pick up Naniwa. The only exception is if I could get whoever IM is starter vs FXO that week instead of getting Tassadar, but I already have YoungHwa and Happy so I might not even have to trade for that!
This will leave me with DRG Puzzle GuMiho Happy Younghwa Tassadar Naniwa July
for the last 5 weeks of group play. I don't think I'll be needing too much trading after that point other than phasing out players that have only 1 game left before they become value 0.

Do you guys think Alicia for GuMiho is a good trade? I don't want to trade Alicia but Alicia/PuMa are my only players with high enough value, and if GuMiho picks up a potential all-kill I will be left in the dust (I'm rank #10 atm). I don't really expect Alicia to rack up a ton of kills on TSL.
my current team:
DongRaeGu PuMa IMHappy Alicia Puzzle Younghwa TheStC Ace

It seems like a reasonable trade. Since both slayers and fou are playing this week, depends on the results you may able to switch back to Alicia before week 6.

I need to pick up someone for sculp..... so undecided, he was a huge bust.
Currently sitting on StarTale DongRaeGu GuMiho PuMa Alicia Younghwa ThorZaIN Lots Sculp
I'm trying to decide between Soccer, Hero, Huk, or maybe Creator as to who could actually get played and get points. Help?
--------------
Also big decision on my anti team... I have Boxer currently. I completely did not expect him to play, and now I'm worried. Their next game he'll be at MLG, but this week is so risky... BoxeR 10.84
Any thoughts on one of these as an anti? Jjakji NSH Curious ST Fenix F.U HongUn PRM InCa OGS Maka PRM Min SLR San NSH RainBOw ST RevivaL TSL
|
I'm liking my position at the moment. Nobody above me has MC, so I just need him to come through big when he gets back to Korea. Hopefully the rest of OGS continues to struggle.
Wish I could pick up Thorzain with someone besides DRG though, probably should have gotten him last week. My Revival->STC trade hurt a lot.
