No matter how expensive he gets (like he'd ever get cheaper, hah!), I NEED Flash as my captain. I expect him to do very well, as always. Let's go through the choices:Acacia - filler. But one from KT so should give some points. Action - wanted to choose two out of the three KT-players in Action, Stats and Wooki. Eventually I chose Action and Stats, because Wooki had a slightly worse win rate than Stats on the database, and I needed a good zerg so Action was a good choice. Slight deciding factor was also that I dislike name-changers, and P7GAB is a pretty silly name. Stats - mentioned above in the text about Action. Very solid protoss, and on KT, so a great choice. herO - Great in round one, decent (or awful?) in round two. Since it's the normal format, which was in round one as well, I predict herO do to great again. Obviously this is a big risk, since he might be awful again, but he was pretty cheap at 5 points and I expect CJ to send him out often, and probably as the main ace as well. I guess Hydra is his rival for the ace spot, but sometimes you just need a protoss ace, so there were we go. Trap - He hasn't done well in either previous round, but I'm still a believer. Ever since his awesome performance in Code A a few seasons ago (that map-awareness!), I'm just waiting for him to break out again. SKT - wanted to pick KT, but didn't have enough points. SKT was cheap, and I hope they do better this round. Same bullet-proof logic as with picking herO: they did well in round one, and we return to that format, so they WILL do good now again. Coincidentally, this logic also applies to my FPL picking, as I did well in my first round (rank 99 on my first FPL participation, and rank 2500-something? on round 2) - so rank 1 here we come! Looks like you know which is the best KT Edit: I'm still having a hard time trying to justify myself of getting Flash considering...he's worth 10 points, the only player to cost double digits, if you break up Flash, it opens up the potential to pick two additional ace players like Ty/Soulkey/HerO

First Fantasy
Main Team 8 Argo(Jaehoon) 3 Bong[S.G] 3 Crazy-Hydra 5 Dear 8 Fantasy (captain) 2 Puma 1 SK Telecom T1
Anti Team 7 free 3 hyvaa 3 Last
Argo - really impressed last round, think he will be T8's new ace. Bong - got a couple of surprise kills, and has a good first-week matchup. good for the price. Crazy-Hydra - cheap, KT, zerg. need i say more? Dear - was missing for the first few STX matches, but they really could have used him. started owning face once he showed up, decent chance at ace matches imo. Fantasy - always solid, decent chance at ace matches. plus fun to watch :D Puma - cheap, has a good first-week matchup. EGTL coach loves to play him, whether that's a good decision or not... SKT - they failed me last round, but at 1 point i couldn't pass them up. boxer save SKT!
free - think he's overpriced, especially in the WJS lineup where he most likely won't play any ace matches. hyvaa - has been a mainstay on my anti-team every round, never regretted it. Last - has been a mainstay on my main team every round, always regretted it.

Reading some of the last few posts makes me think maybe I should break up Jaedong on my anti into Shine and someone else. Two players getting points is worse than one, but on the other hand, Shine is pretty awful and I could parlay him with Reality to give myself a full Khan anti-team, putting me in good shape if they lose all their matches.
Not sure though, I really don't see Jaedong getting more than 5 appearances this season and going something like 3-2.

#taskforce
Main Team 5 herO[jOin] 5 P7GAB(Wooki) 5 Revival (captain) 2 sKyHigh 5 Stats 4 Terminator(Sang) 4 KT Rolster
Anti Team 3 Last 3 s2 7 Stork
Main Team:
Revival- I love him (hes cute) and hes a teamleague boss; DEFINITELY worth 5 points
herO- At only 5 points def a steal, he will likely be used as CJ's ace at least a few times
P7GAB- He dominated this format in week 1 and hes got pvp in round 1, and hes a pvp boss. Not to mention hes on KT
SkyHigh- i needed a terran and he was only 2, it seems hes replaced Bbyong in the CJ lineup so i chose SkyHigh over Bbyong
Stats- Just like Wooki, he dominated in round 1, and hes on KT. Unfortunatley hes up against Rain in the first match so im little worried about that, but i have faith even if he loses to Rain.
Terminator- I originally didn't want to pick him but i needed a 4 and decided that between SoO and LighT he had the best chance of winning his round 1 match as well as hes been looking the best recently, as hes always being fielded by T8.
(edit: forgot to write about KT lol) Team: KT Rolster- i choice KT because even though they're 4 i feel like they will definitely win a lot. and having both Wooki and Stats on my team, when they do well it will result in many-a-point for me ^__^ Anti-Team:
Stork- i had him anti round 1 and it did me well. However he started doing a lot better at the end of round 2 so i have creeping suspicion about this choice...but i still think hes overpriced at a 7 and i feel like he wont keep up this streak of doing well and i'll end up okay.
Last- since Stork was 7, i could pick two threes. Last isnt even in the lineup round 1 and i feel like hes not too good anyways. easy pick.
S2- i was deciding who to pick as my other 3, and i decided on S2 because hes playing flash in the first match. Although he will probably get a lot/decent amount of play time with SKT i feel like he wont win too much so i should be okay.

Main Team 3 Bong[S.G] 7 Effort 5 herO[jOin] 8 Hydra 2 Puma 2 sKyHigh (captain) 2 [tlpd#teams##sc2-korean]EG.TL[/tlpd]
Anti Team 4 Light 4 Terminator(Sang) 5 TY(Baby)
Bong-Cheap, and had some pretty good performances recently.
Effort-Most likely a very consistently played zerg for Entus, since he and Hydra are the only reliable ones. Looking forward to having him rack up the points ^_^
hero[j]-Been slumping a little bit (like rain :o ) but I have faith in his power, and he's on Entus, and he's only 5 points. Hoping that he gets his mojo back~
Hydra-Other Entus zerg, has been rockin out recently. Very likely that he will be in every lineup, and since he's awesome, he will not be defeated this round and I will make a bajillion ESPORTS dollars
Puma-Cheap filler from EGTL and with the EG Lab he could maybe get back into shape, but mostly he's there because he was my favorite from the remaining 2 pointers
Skyhigh(C)-Apparently replaced bbyong as the one entus terran, and pretty cheap at two points. He's either really improved , a sniper, or bbyong is fucking awful, so hopefully he will get some good playtime. I don't really know why he's my captain though, lol
EGTL-Hoping that normal format suits them a bit better :S
!Anti!
Light-Looked fairly disappointing in standard games so far, so he will hopefully get owned by other gaiz ^^
Terminator-Started off the year looking not-terrible, but appears to be getting worse, so he dun gets the pick
TY-Cure has pretty much replaced him as the 8th king of terran, so i'm gambling on him not getting playtime/getting sniper/being awful

The Fighting Serpicos III
Main Team 5 Action 2 Bbyong (captain) 7 HerO 6 Innovation(Bogus) 5 P7GAB(Wooki) 4 Terminator(Sang) 1 SK Telecom T1
Anti Team 3 Last 3 Shine 7 Stork
action: Played well for the most part, plus KT will be winning a decent amount and that means he will too once again. He was ok last round, but I feel like he will progress more and more.
bbyong: Played well recently, and dirt cheap.
Hero: Simply a really good player and not at a prohibitively high price, seemed like a solid pick for 7.
Bogus: Solid player and fair price, felt the safest of all the picks at this price with his performances.
Wooki: Developed into a good player with a decent price on a great team.
Terminator: I think he will be playing a lot and he's been doing ok, didn't feel great about taking light for 4.
Anti:
Last: I think he sucks for 3, doesn't impress or play a lot
Shine: Same as last
Stork: My big risk, he has some nice wins, but nothing to really decimate an anti imo, ok pick for an anti and is there for his high point total obviously.

This is what makes me upset about FPL. I make my team, based off my experience and intuition, then come read others FPLs and think "damn why didn't think of that!

A Memory of Light
Main Team 5 herO[jOin] (captain) 6 Innovation(Bogus) 4 Light 4 soO 5 Soulkey 5 Stats 1 SK Telecom T1
Anti Team 3 Reality 3 Shine 7 Stork
I feel much better about this round than the last 2. There were a ton of good players available in the 4-6 range (some that I thought were better than those in the 7-9 range). herO, Innovation, and Soulkey are all ace caliber players. Stats has the 3rd highest win ratio. SoO and Light are pretty good values for 4, although I wonder if I should have gone for a 5 and 3 instead (such as Baby and JYP) And finally, SKT only costed 1 so I took them.
By coincidence, my anti-team is purely Samsung players. I took Stork because he seemed the most overvalued 6-10 range player, and then Shine and Reality just happened to be the 2 players with the lowest ELO in proleague.

Believe the Hype
Main Team 1 Acacia 10 Flash (captain) 3 JYP 2 Major 5 P7GAB(Wooki) 5 TY(Baby) 4 KT Rolster
Anti Team 4 Light 5 Stats 4 Terminator(Sang)
Acacia is on KT, don't expect him to play, but he still will get points by basking in Flash's greatness
Flash is Flash
JYP has been playing a lot for EGTL and has been the ace before, and at 3 points seemed like a steal
Major mentioned he expected to play as a TvT sniper in R3 in an interview, and he is Juanito
Wooki is an awesome name and has performed admirably so far in PL
Baby is awesome
Pick my anti-team mostly at random after I found out I couldn't pick Teaja.

Main Team 5 Action 1 BarrackS 2 Classic 3 Crazy-Hydra 10 Flash (captain) 5 Stats 4 KT Rolster
Anti Team 3 Last 3 s2 7 Stork
I have no idea what i'm doing so I went with a full KT one =)
♥
Also, I have Stork on my anti-team cause he's going to play Hydra in the first match, and Hydra's ZvP is 7-1 (87,5%) and Stork PvZ is 2-3 I also have s2 cause he's unlikely to win, and Last cause he won't play the first week.

R3 team ready to roll out:
I don't know, StarVe...
Main Team 3 Bravo(hon_sin) (captain) 6 Innovation(Bogus) 3 JYP 4 Light 5 P7GAB(Wooki) 5 Soulkey 4 Woongjin Stars
Anti Team 3 hyvaa 3 Last 7 Stork
Reasoning:
BrAvO is most likely undervalued because he didn't play in R2 for unknown reasons, but he's solid enough to be a frequent player for WJS.
If there is no world-ending catastrophe inbound, Innovation should easily win against Zenio, so I can trade him away next week for someone better if necessary.
JYP is a solid 3-pointer with a great map and opponent in Week 1, also he might even play ace matches if the trOt/Hwanni combo continue to make decisions only they can comprehend.
Light is cool, I liked him last round and even though he might not be top tier, I think he'll do pretty well again this round. At least I think he's way more solid than Terminator who's relatively bad and soO who's not reliable at all, it's a bit sad but I won't be stupid enough anymore to pick more Zergs than I have to.
Wooki should beat Best and has done well in every round, he's on a good team and I expect a decent amount of points. I'd have liked to pick Stats but Wooki has the way easier opponent.
Soulkey, meh, I picked him last round and he was terrible but I still needed a Zerg. I hope it was only a smaller slump and he'll do better in this format where he can prepare, I think he's damn good at that. Also, I do think Soulkey is the best you can get from all the 3-6 point Zergs and I wouldn't want to spend my money on Effort if I could get a non-Protoss ace instead. Anyway, I chose to go for the more evenly distributed points this round and hope I get a bit lucky.
Woongjin as a team, they're my favourite Kespa team and they have done well so far, I don't think they'll be much worse than KT so I can get away with a bit of favoritism.
Anti team is hard, Stork has been good although he may still be valued a bit too high at 7 points, hyvaa is terrible and Last doesn't play this round, I'm only afraid because of Stork but I have no idea who else I should have picked from the good players.
I still wonder whether I should have picked SKT again, you could have made a sick team with all the additional points you get.

Oh I know. I had a terrible time chosing which team logo to use. Flash is my favorite player, but Fantasy is right behind him. I love both SKT and KT (I know you're supposed to like one and hate the other, but come on, they're both great), but in the end I went with SKT because of the Boxer factor. I just wish I could use both logos, because I'm starting to like the rest of the KT line up more these days, especially Stats.

FlashAHHHHHH
Main Team 10 Flash (captain) 3 Bong[S.G] 3 Crazy-Hydra 1 Haruhi 3 JYP 5 P7GAB(Wooki) 4 KT Rolster
Anti Team 3 Shine 5 Soulkey 5 TY(Baby)
Main: Flash - Despite some shaky performances in the middle of round 2, he finished strong and overcame Fantasy in an impressive manner. I like his preference for macro and I think he's only going to get better. Bong - He's basically a week 1 pick. Reality hasn't been doing well, so I'm expecting him to pick up a win. Crazy - I couldn't really find any other cheap zergs, but I actually think he has a shot against Fantasy this week. Haruhi - Was my t8 leach last round. JYP - For some reason, EG-TL really likes to field him a lot. I actually think he can get the job done in PvZ and PvP. P7GAB - I was really torn between picking him and Dear. I think Dear is objectively the better pick given that he's seemed to develop into a better player/ace than Innovation. But at the end of the day, I decided I wanted to gamble more heavily on KT and went with the Wookie.
Team: KT. They have a strong core with Action, Stats and P7GAB as well as arguably the best player with Flash.
Anti: Shine - I just don't think he's going to do well and probably won't see any ace time given the strictly better option of Roro, as well as Jangbi and Stork. Soulkey - Hasn't lived up to his reputation, and Stars has better aces in sOs and ZerO. Ty - Like Soulkey, he's been underperforming in both PL and GSL, and he's been eclipsed by Argo and Cure for ace. He also has a tough first match in sOs.
