Main Team 5  JangBi8  RorO (captain)3 Sacsri4 Shine3  Turn4 ZerO3 [tlpd#teams##sc2-korean]Woongjin Stars[/tlpd] Anti Team 5 Jaehoon5 Stats3 TerminatorDecided to get RorO as my captain since he has been doing really well in SC2 thus far (and he is zerg but thats a detail). Other than that I got myself a lot of Samsung Khan players since they have en easy matchup against Team 8 the first week. Which is also why I got two Team 8 players for my anti team, other than BaBy they dont look strong at all. I also got Stats for my anti team, since he will probably lose to Jaedong I think. I picked Woongjin Stars as my team since the Team Liquid preview told me to. And they didnt cost a lot. Other than that i just picked some zergs. Ill obviously win  | ||

You can make revisions until the signups are closed. http://www.teamliquid.net/fantasy/proleague/Entry.php Just go to that again and it lets you remake it as many times as you want. | ||

Main Team 3 Crazy-Hydra1 JuNi2 Mind12 Rain (captain)6 Stork3 ThorZain3 [tlpd#teams##sc2-korean]KT Rolster[/tlpd] Anti Team 9 Bogus2 Dream.t)check2 Ryul2I am not very confident with this choice since I haven't seen many players performing on SC2. I do think Rain is a solid choice for a Captain because of his last performance. Amazing! Regarding Crazy-Hydra, he has been performing well in SC2, Mind is usually strong in TvT and Stork needs no explaination. Juni... I think he might be a suprise, lets see. My personal bet will be Thorzain. It would be great to see him perform well. I am sorry TLEG but I think KT might take this.  Anti-Team... I believe many of us strongly believe Rain might take it... I also do believe this and if not, Bogus will make me regret this!  My opinion on Team 8 is that they won't give any struggle and unfortunely the team will be completely runned over! (Would be good for the show if I was wrong. Let's wait and see.) Good Luck to everyone! Let the games begin!!! | ||

Trading a lot is probably a poor idea, there's a point tax for trading players and you can only trade down in quality. | ||

Zerg because they're doing really well lately and i don't see why that trend would stop, Fantasy as my captain because i believe in what he said and expect nothing but good results from this point on Anti team, well they wont do well, why else would i pick them | ||

Main Team 1 Alone4 Bisu9 Bogus (captain)3 Crazy-Hydra4 JYP3 Puma6 UNHOLY ALLIANCE Anti Team 4 Light4 Mini5 RealityOk so, some vague rationales. I think TL-EG is the strongest team going in here for a start. They also have a hell of a lot of extra motivation for this beyond the proleague guys. Most of their foreigners and Koreans are familiar with Proleague but never got to test their mettle, a la Idra, HerO and their lineup. Jaedong imo will be motivated for the SC2 game far more by being on a foreign team, it's a new challenge that might pump him up. Stephano may not give a shit about being called a dodger for not playing GSL for all I know, but at least Proleague gives him a chance to shut up his critics if he does. Huk has to regain his reputation as a foreigner who can regularly hang with Koreans, and he definitely cares about testing himself in that environment. Even the Korean manager/coach that EG hired has motivation to help, because it's his job. Basically everyone in this team has a motivation to give 100% for more reasons than many of the Kespa teams. EG's investment in the house, manager and Jaedong will probably (hopefully) help as well. Main Team: Bogus Was going to pick Rain as my captain as he's imo the best Kespa player. But then I saw he was against Bogus this week and well.... Bogus man. Also Bogus reminds me of Bomber in terms of just being really clean and having great mechanical ability, and Bomber beat Rain pretty handily at MLG. Bogus is also a bit cheaper than Rain Bisu. I think is still overinflated based on his SC2 showing so far, but he's also Bisu so relative to say, Flash I think he's undervalued. That's assuming Bisu has the motivation to get good at SC2. He's on the same team as Rain and has Boxer as a coach so he has the capacity to be taught good SC2 Protoss even if he couldn't learn it himself. JYP Incredibly underpriced compared to the Liquid Koreans. I also feel that the established SC2 pros have some more all-round chops in terms of employing a variety of styles just in general. The preparation format of the GSL and other tournaments the Kespa guys have popped into allows them to prep specific builds very well vs specific opponents, but in terms of versatility I think JYP has it in abundance. He's shown good chops so far this season including in the GSTL with SlayersEG. Also shown some good mentality in said teamleague and has very good vZ, solid vP and his vT is not the liability it once was. Puma, god knows what kind of shape he's in but if he hits his peak form he's pretty undervalued imo. Another kind of risky pick from the heart rather than my head a la Bisu. Crazy-Hydra plays quite crazily, sometimes sloppily but he's a good wildcard imo based on that very inconsistency. Anti-Team No real logic here other than the points limit. I do think Reality is still a bit overvalued based on his early form and he's a bit below that level, but we'll see. I know nothing really about Alone but needed somebody. Mini looked really good when he was a 'shitkid' but pretty bad subsequently, plus he turfed out a foreigner from GSL! I don't hate the guy at all, but hey I need somebody I'd be rooting against for my anti-team anyway so he's as good a choice as anyone. Would love some crit on my picks, whether I'm an idiot or a genius etc etc | ||

Main Team 6 Best6 Flying5 Last2 Ryul22 Sea6 soO (captain)3 [tlpd#teams##sc2-korean]STX Soul[/tlpd] Anti Team 5 JangBi4 JYP4 ShineIn stock market style fantasy leagues I always try to take a balanced team rather than relying on one with a big star and then a bunch of filler. So to my dismay, no Flash or Rain. I took soO as captain due to his strong performances in the events against non-Kespa players, particularly the MvP tournament where I thought he was very impressive. Some more recent games have also made me a fan. Since we can't trade the captain I wanted someone who I was confident in to get results and perform under pressure. I also went into this with the intention of having a Zerg as captain, since they are slightly favorable at the moment, and the big changes aren't coming until HotS. I think his stock should rise very quickly. Flying: Took first seed in a group of him, Rain, Bogus (Innovation), and Soulkey back in July, then took first again in a group with MVP, Parting and BaBy, only losing to MVP. Very impressive stuff. Ended up losing to MC in the first round but there's no shame in going down vs. the BossToss in a PvP. At 6 points, I think he's a potential steal. Best: Probably my least confident pick. 6 points is a big investment for a player who went 0-3 in his OSL group but I think he's going to do well in the long run. I'll be keeping close watch though. Last: Impressed in the Dual Tournament phase of OSL, then managed to beat Nestea and Fantasy while losing to Oz to take 2nd in his group. Took 4th after a 4-3 loss to Rain. Sea: Mainly a fanboy Terran foreign team pick because I needed a cheap player. I think he'll get a lot of playing time from EG-TL so even if he doesn't post results, he should at least give me some appearance points. Ryul2: I wanted another Zerg. ----- I don't think JangBi has been that impressive so far. JYP hasn't made much noise in the scene lately, and I don't know much about Shine but I took him here anyways. | ||
