KT = rival to SKT, take your pick of Startale / IM rivalries, or EG. Has traditionally had really great rosters and player (Nada, yellow, Nal_ra, Reach) buys but always failed to capture league wins or individual league wins (KT academy curse) until flash came through. MBC Game Hero = (take your pick of teams that lost star players) Had alot of potential when they had both Sea, Light, and Bisu at one point, but light and bisu got bought out to other teams and they never captured another team league win again. Now defunct Woongjin Stars = (Acer?) Strong Zergs traditionally in Zero / Soulkey and strong TvZ player light who was a buy from MBC Game Hero, they also had decent protoss' in free, their terran line is usually regarded as an in-joke because they were terrible. This is contrasted with: Samsung Khan = (Hard to say which team has the strongest protoss' since there's only been 2 GSL protoss champions in SC2) Strong protoss' traditionally in Stork / Jangbi with good rookie terran reality, Stork and Jangbi are both strong contenders for individual leagues. CJ Entus = (IM in team league) has extremely "deep" line up with the most consistent A level players in Leta, Skyhigh, Effort, Movie, etc who are all championship material, but never manages to pull through in team leagues. CJ also has exception zergs in Effort / Savior that has a rivalry with Woongjin for strongest individual zergs. Hwaseung OZ = I guess TL since Taeja / hero used to carry them? Need I say more?, now defunct. STX Soul = Take your pick of underdog team. You would be hard pressed to find fans of STX, their most consistent player now is Bogus and some promising rookies in Mini and couple of others. WemadeFox = Used to house some notable players such as Roro, Mind, Rock and is one of the older teams, but is now defunct. Airforce Ace = There isn't a comparable example. Special team for retiring players and people going through the military term requirements in Korea, made by boxer. Hosted alot of past famous players like Iris, Midas, firebathero, etc. Now defunct. Team 8 = Used to be the dream team and now all hopes are gone, so I guess slayers in SC2 up to dissolving? The merger between all the star players from WemadeFox, MBCGame Hero, and Hwaseung OZ. Had Sea / Jaedong / Baby / Jaehoon. But now is in dire straits. Usually the team leagues are tiered off like this: SKT / KT + CJ = tier 1 / 1.5 Khan / Stars = tier 2 Hero / OZ / Soul / Fox = tier 2.5 Airforce Ace = tier 3 but everyone loves ace. and team 8 i dont even know. Quoting this cuz it seems unfortunate for such a nice post to get buried at the bottom of a page. Also tiny caveat that we (CJ) totally won last season. :D But yeah your point still very much stands. And I agree with much of this! | ||

He seemed on point PvT at IPL5 The picks are made by both teams blind, as in they cant see what the other team's line up until both are revealed. Proleague match ups making and map analysis is one of the trade marks of the BW league, alot of mind games goes into it. | ||

Other than that there's a real lack of mirror matchups, which is a problem PL used to have. Lots and lots of mirrors in the most recent PL seasons, we'll see how it develops. | ||
