Team: CJ Entus (10p) Glad I made this pick, always pretty solid in pro-league, if it wasn't for them I'd be pretty hooped right now. They are 4-3, hoping to see them still do well as I still have Hydra on the team. Captain: Neo.G_Soulkey(14p) This guy can play SC2, out of a field of many Kespa guys which many of you can see are still just learning the game, this guy looks like a bonjwa, and he wins in fashion. So far he's working just the way I'd like. Players: Hydra: (9p) Initially in the season, I had to choose my main I'd be betting to take it, so I picked CJ, this guy I think will play every day, and they are very well rounded, so far not bad. JYP: (7p) One of those players that wasn't too expensive, and I think he's pretty good. I expect him to get fielded quite a bit, and currently he's 2-1, which is exceeding my expectations. Leta: (3p) Bleh why are you so awful D: I dunno why I thought Leta would be good, but I thought he'd get fielded a lot, hasn't played once, and I only get points because he's on CJ... Don't really know what to do with that. Hopefully they send him out sometime. Jangbi: (1p) Beginning of the season, Jangbi seemed like an al right player, after seeing EGTL play vs them yesterday though, I'm scared for having anyone on their team, really hoping they start doing well, because I traded another player for another player in Khan (now I have two in Khan). Turn: (0p) Just bought this guy. I was in a really tough situation... I had Calm, and considering he is a playing coach, he's not going to be getting fielded. His trade value was really low, and honestly, as I was looking through the players I could pick, Turn was the only one who would be fielded in 75%+ of the days. Really hoping Khan starts turning it around because of that. Anti-Team: Stork: (2p) ---> Stephano: (0p) Wish I had done this earlier, I don't think he's going to be in korea often, or for too long, don't think he will get fielded much, and so far he hasn't. I think TL has a couple more games before he comes back around, plus this format doesn't favor Stephano either. Stork has been doing me well, but now I want Khan to step-up, soo Stephano - keep winning tournaments in Europe and stay away! Huk: (2p) I really think Huk is overrated, hence why he isn't getting playing time, and even if he does, I think his quality of play isn't enough to win much. So far so good. Bisu: (2p) Bisu doing exactly what I'd expect haha, my most disliked player in BW, still slumping tons, don't think he's going to get more than one or two wins. Points: Main(45)-Anti(7)-Trade(2) = 36 points | ||

Best player in hero[join] on the team. Bbyong (my captain), Zero and Action gave very good value for their initial price. Wish I would have traded for Stephano in anti-team before he got cheaper like now. | ||

Yeah I was thinking one of those 2 from what I saw from reading Liquidpedia and tlpd but little worrysome that they haven't played yet, I might just take a gamble and take Idra | ||

Stephano (likely?) won't play this year, meaning round 1 you get no point for him. According to R1CH on page 41 there will be a new FPL season starting after round 1. We probably have to choose a whole new team. | ||

I knew CJ Entus was severely underrated despite winning Proleague last season, so I picked a team with mostly CJ players. I'll have to do some crafty moves later on because someone else (nonopepealcidi) did the same. I was going to stay away from EG-TL at all costs because with everyone making EG-TL teams, none would stand out. rare -> yeOngJae ended up being a +1, so yeOngJae's trade value is now higher than rare's. I believed this was the most no-brainer trade for week 2 because he appeared twice. My only regret is using a 6/4/3 spread on my antiteam, with the 6 being Soo. I should've seen Stephano being tremendously overrated and used a 5/4/4 spread, with the 5 being used as trade fodder for Stephano. Instead I was forced to trade Terminator (my 3 point choice) for Stephano, and now I have Soo sucking points out of me. That mistake cost me first place (for now). | ||

Captain: ![]() He is performing relatively as expected, the loss vs Zenio hurt slightly but he has been a solid member thus far and I'm happy with my pick. Positive: Solid Code S level player that will continue to win. Obvious Ace on a team that lacks depth Negative: Being on a weaker team, he likely wont get me those extra +1 points for wins. Being the obvious Ace makes for an easy Ace snipe. Earners: ![]() One of my surprise top earners. I selected him week One because I knew he would roll ThorZaIN, giving me trade potential going Into week two. He performed as expected in week two going 1-1 and earning +4 more. I was expecting a +5 but KT dropped the ball after Flash got worked. Positive: Cheap player that continues to win and his play has been surprisingly impressive thus far Negative: None Really, his loss came to an abusive Protoss strat that he just wasn't prepared for. ![]() After a disappointing week One, I wasn't expecting much from him while playing the same map against an abusive BeSt and a strong Flash. I knew he had the skill to pull these wins but with an overall lack of knowledge of Bifrost, these two wins came as a welcome surprise. Positive: Extremely good (cheap) player on One of the better teams in the league. Negative: I'm still not sold on Bifrost and WJS's continued use of him on that map. Flash made a huge mistake and just didn't seem prepared for the map and BeSt simply got destroyed by an all in he didn't scout. ![]() Dear was a selection simply based on his value and his first week opponent (a Terrible Bisu). He looked Solid and appeared to be a PvP Sniper going in to week two. He had another weak opponent in JangBi (Yeah, Bisu and JangBi "weak opponents" in SC2- weird right?) and a relatively Unknown player in SC2 with bong. (A match I have yet to see... thanks KeSPA for making ALL VODs PPV. Dicks). 2-1 thus far is fine with me and depending on lineups next week and what I see in the bong match, I'll likely be keeping him. Positive: Winning in PvP. He had extremely weak opponents in his first two sets, but a wins a win. Negative: PvP is just as volatile as ZvZ, banking on him to earn me points every week could eventually hurt me. Disappointments: ![]() Even at 6 points, this kid is a huge disappointment. 0-3 in regular sets and 1-0 in Ace. If I Remember correctly, he was the 2nd most expensive player on my team at 7 points. One more abysmal week and my bargain picks will be worth more than this Code S Terran. Depending on next weeks matchups, I may be ditching him for the likes of SoO, TaeJa, or HerO. Positive: Code S Terran and obvious Ace for T8 Negative: Just doesn't seem to win PL in spite of his tremendous skill. Being an Ace doesn't matter if you get 4-0d every single time either. ![]() A bargain pick and a selection simply based on my BW knowledge of him. Didn't play week one and was fielded on the same map for week two so I had hopes for Mind. I didn't expect him to defeat Jaehoon, but it was Arkanoid, so I was expecting some sort of nice abusive strat- which we didn't get. Positive: On KT- That's about it for positive Negative: Just plain bad. There was nothing in his play this week that made me think "Hey, he could win this" STX SouL - Keeping A solid team that just hasn't pulled through in clutch situations. Their first three opponents have been rather solid so it's really nothing on them. Playing Trap against an obvious Rain was probably one of the dumbest moves ever and TDA really isn't a fun map, especially for ace. They have been a disappointment thus far, but I expect them to pick it up in the coming weeks. They should take T8 relatively easily and WJS will probably be another 4-3, whichever way it goes. Positive: Really good Terrans and a solid Ace Negative: Relatively no Zergs and average protosses. Anti Team ![]() ![]() ![]() Couldn't be happier with this anti. Mistakenly selected Jaehoon first week and had to trade out for Stephano. The only way this anti gets better is if they were all retired. Maybe I should snag Bisu before that happens | ||

They changed it after EG-TL finally won a match. Go figure, right? | ||
