If I were a progamer, I would definitely prefer Proleague format. It just allows more consistent booth time.

All Kill is much more exciting as a fan.

I think a mix like Proleague does now is quite nice. We can have cake and pie!!

the only real issue you guys are having with PL format is mirror match. That really has something to do with the state of the game rather than the format itself. Remember when the early hybrid league was full of protosses all day everyday? Wasnt that time the height of WoL protoss? It's exactly the same now imo.
Dont blame the format, blame the game

it's due to the wacky maps that PL uses which don't care about balance i.e. have one race that is favoured and thus sent out more

my point is that the number of protosses in SPL lineups every week is kinda absurd it cant be unseen. At this stage, it's easier for maps to be advantageous for them. See Flying's recent match on Naro Station to see how abusive toss could look like, or Stork massing VoidRay on Belshir and some other maps.

And somehow you guys automatically label KeSPA maps wacky without even watching the game. Meanwhile Planet S made both GSL & ladder. Oh and I heard every zerg picks Whirlwind in the GSL right, everyone allin on Icarus right? (dont get me wrong, I enjoy every games on those maps, only hate stereotypical shit like Belshir Vestige)

lol i watch plenty of games dude. kespa maps are definitely wacky, it's been confirmed before by official sources i.e. mapmakers and kespa interviews etc that they don't care so much about map balance but rather concepts, which will lead to wacky maps.

neo planet S is actually not well balanced when looking at TLPD stats on it, but it's one of the better ones. you can't deny things like arkanoid and fighting spirit aren't strange
