It's not been a while since we've had proleague, but it's finally back in a new HotS flavor. Fantasy GSTL may have been satisfying enough in the meantime, but now we're running two fantasy leagues at the same time.
Here are some important facts to know going into Round 5:
Round 5 will be the winners league format of proleague and scoring has changed accordingly. Check to scoring section for more info.
Round 5 will last from 5/4 to 6/2.
Matches will be played Saturday-Tues, same as last round.
There will be 4 weeks of play, each consisting of 7 matches. This means that two teams will only be playing one match per week. For the first week, these two teams are EG-TL and Team 8.
Lineup Appearance: +1 Point* Game Win: +2 Points Game Loss: -1 Point 2-Game Streak Break: +1 Point** 3-Game Streak Break: +2 Points** Your Player's Team Wins: +1 Point***
*Only counts once, i.e. if Flash goes 4-0, he still only gets 1 appearance point **Streaks do not carry over between matches, all streaks must occur in the same match. Breaking a streak means your player has dethroned a player who's already gotten 2+ wins. ***This counts for all players on the team's roster, even if they did not play in the match.
KT Rolster: 3 Points (+2 for 4-2 Victory) EG-Liquid: 0 Points (0 for 2-4 Defeat) Flash 7 Points (+1 for lineup, +2 for win, +2 for win +2 for win, -1 for loss, +1 for team win) Jaedong: 6 Points (+1 for lineup, +2 for win, +2 for 3-game streak break, +2 for win, -1 for loss) Stats: 5 Points (+1 for lineup, +2 for win, +1 for 2-game streak break, +1 for team win) Wooki: 1 Point (+1 for lineup, -1 for loss, +1 for team win) Hero: 0 Points (+1 for lineup, -1 for loss) Stephano: 0 Points (+1 for lineup, -1 for loss) Taeja: 0 Points (+1 for lineup, -1 for loss) Everyone else on KT Rolster: 1 Point (+1 for team win) Everyone else on EG-TL: 0 Points
Check lineups each week! Players facing weak teams are generally more valuable.
Don't make trades just for sake of making trades, as they cost you trade tax points and you may get stuck with a player you don't want
The trade price formula takes into account number of matches remaining -- so players with more matches remaining will have higher prices
You must trade for players with less value, but try to minimize the value loss. For example, if you trade someone worth 30 for someone worth 20, next week you can only trade the 20 for someone less. It's much better to trade the 30 for someone worth 29.
Groups
You will be able to create and join groups so you can compare your results with a smaller subset of the players, for example there might be a Staff Group, a First Time FPL Group, a USA Players Group, or a group created by you with just your friends.

Just wait a few hours before doing it. There's often a need to reset the system when some mistakes are found such as some players costing 0 points etc.
Awww, why no player bonus for all-kills? I mean, if he goes 4-0 he deserves at least 12 points, not 10. A player could get up to 8 points in the previous round for only 2 games (normal win + ace win), but now only 10 points for 4 games in a row? That's too cheap.

Well then, don't count that bonus to the anti-team.. It wouldn't be unfair.

Think of it this way. The average player scores ~1.4x more in proleague format than in all-kill format. If a player all-kills, he already has a huge advantage.
Trust and Bunny at 1 point are pretty tempting. they did decent in code A. CJ's got the core 4 in Effort/Hydra/hero/Bbyong but they didn't do so well last round so I can see these two getting mixed in. A bit of a risk but if you pick up a 1 pointer you free up a ton of points to get better player for rest of your roster. This is an interesting twist on my never ever getting 1 pointer rule.

Yeah, I chose hOpe, who is a 1-pointer. He has two loses so far, but I think he has potential. A wild choise would be Snute or Major.

I've had almost exactly the same FPL team since the first FPL season for this Proleague. So fun watching the players develop and fail. we aren't the best team, but we stick together no matter what. ^^ That said, havign had Innovation on my anti-team since forever kind of sucks. T_T
Made into top 100 in R4. Hopefully I can keep on climbing. Getting way better at these silly shenanigans. And it feeeeeelss good man.

I know those feels. My first attempt at FPL resulted in a hastily assembled anti-team of Effort, Roro, and Soulkey. Ya, I had about quadruple my positive gains into the red that round.
This is a tough round. I feel, like there are almost no over/underrated players this time. Also all-kill format, will be about luck it seems. i would not be surprised if someone with ALL SKT or ALL WJS teams will win it all.
I think all except Hydra are favored to win the starting match. Hydra vs Jangbi is pretty close, Jangbi is ever favored I'd say since Hydra isn't playing well. So maybe swap for another player there. I'd say this is a fairly solid team if you want to guarantee all your players to play. I'd say all of them are regular core members of their teams except maybe Brown who has shown tons of promise and got a lot of play last round, so even if they weren't all starting they'd all see regular play.
IMO given the starters this is probably the safest main team composition you can get for this FPL round. And you can still build a really solid team by keeping 3-4 out of those players and swap the others around for someone you like.
I'm personally running Trust/Roro/sOs instead of Hydra/Bbyong/Zest here. taking the gamble on CJ playing Trust over Bong occasionally in order to get the super solid Roro over hydra/effort who are both 5 pts. Zest vs sOs is a bit meh switch on my part. Zest can do really well in AK format but KT has strong opponents this week so I don't think he'll get super streaky, sOs is a more solid long term pick for the round.

I think all-kill is about spreading your picks out on most/all teams. But don't take my word for it because I apparently suck at it (I really dislike AK for fantasy).

Could you clarify that last paragraph mighty Bamboo?
I guess I can see how your team would be better as it doesn't have the clash of Bbyong and Mekia. On the other hand, I would think that if they're running a starter like Mekia then he almost has to be worth more than the 2 points he's valued at, isn't he? Plus, you mentioned Hydra isn't favored in his match, so it would seem to me like Mekia is a fairly decent pick to fulfill the zerg requirement.
Of course, I'm a bit of a noob compared to you, so if you could comment I'd really appreciate it.
I just tried to pick up the ace players for as many teams as I could as well as a couple starers this week. Innovation and Jangbi are going to be sent out for their teams as both stx and samsung will rarely completely roll over their opponents. I'm not too sure of puzzle, but I figured he was pretty good on slayers, and KT picked him up for a reason. Hopefully he can take a regular spot in the rotation. Skt is pretty stacked right now and always a solid pick for team;pluz I had 4 points left after picking the team.
On anti, I just don't expect any of them to play all that much. Taeja has the possibility of destroying me, but he already destroyed team when I had him on my main, so why not.

Edit: Wait... fuck Hydra is 11-4 vs Protoss.
Mekia vs Bbyong is a bit of a gamble match. Bbyong should be favored, but I personally don't really like his play. Bbyong plays mostly very thin timing attacks that seems to barely edge out the win, at least in TvP anyway. I'm not too familiar with his TvZ so it's hard to say. Mekia hasn't done too well in the past but it's been a while since he's field in PL, so maybe he's better now. The problem is if Mekia loses there will be very little option to trade him away because he's worth only 2, and unlikely he'll get sent out again in AK format. Slightly good news with WJS should do well so you'll just collect +1 team wins. I don't know, I don't really like any of the 2 value players so meh.
Stats has a really hard match vs Soulkey, arguably top 3 zergs right now along side Life and Roro. It's possible for him to win, but it's too risky IMO for a 6 point investment. And even if he's maybe 50/50 chance against any number of strong WJS score members like sOs and light, so it's unlikely that Stats starting spot will pay off.
Hydra is 11-4 vs protoss in WoL, not HoTS. He did beat Parting last round though. but just lost to Avenge 1-2 in code A. Jangbi just beat Byul 2-1 in code A. I'd say Jangbi is still favored.
This is my current team - I swapped T8 for CJ, didn't see CJ was 1, not 2.
So if I've gotten this right, there's a Bunny who's on CJ and the Bunny in Europe? Who are both in Code A? Sounds like a potential source of confusion.
Also, there's a post your team thread, use that one not this one to post teams!

I don't like it either. I'm just hoping ZerO won't see as much play due to WJS having such a deep roster. Honestly I don't like my other 5 point options either. Crazy has done surprisingly well, although with KT getting Puzzle, Crazy might not play much but KT doesn't have good zerg choices outside of Crazy and Hitman.
Even classic, he did really well last round, STX's core is Innovation/Dear/Trap, and normally hyvaa for 4th but he's yet to do really well so classic/mini could easily round out their roster. I'm not sure why Last hasn't been field more recently.
All the 6+ pointers are super dangerous IMO so it's hard to anti any of them. If we had more news about Taeja's condition maybe I'd put him on the anti, but otherwise it's pretty dangerous as Taeja could easily carry EGTL on a few matches. The anti is pretty hard this round so, meh. We'll see.
I wanted players who could make all-kills so I went for Innovation + Rain. I think CJ will improve this round and then herO will probably play a role in that so I picked him as well.
I noticed that EGTL will only play one match week 1 so I thought picking HerO in my anti would be the best choice for first week at least but I dunno... Probably will switch him out as soon as I can.

I am confident with my team and I am sure I will be #1.
No offense, but your team isn't that great. Jangbi might destroy your anti, alive/skyhigh/zenio won't give you much points, bisu won't get much play time because SKT1 is stacked with better protosses (don't get me wrong, I love Bisu to death!). Innovation and Parting will probably carry hard, though.
There's mine :
Zik's Team
Main Team 2 Action : Needed a low pts player.. 8 Innovation(Bogus) (captain) : Easy pick. 6 Jaedong : Jaedong auto-pick, because fanboy. 3 Last : Inconsistent but I know he can do well. 6 sOs(Shy) : Really solid protoss. 3 TY(Baby) : For his low cost it could be good. 2 EG.TL : I believe in Clutchdong, Taeja and Hero trinity for winners league.
Anti Team 5 Classic : Even if he's doing well lately I don't think it will stay like this. 5 Light : He's good, but Stars is too stacked, I don't think he'll play much in winners league. 3 s2 : Might not play a single game this round, because SKT1 so stacked.
why fpl doesn't have a prize pool like a tl hoodie/t-shirt/mousepad at least for the 1st place? I think it's good for the web-site, community and also for the game. Isn't this a good idea or isn't affordable?

No ^^, Snute's just one of the Better player for 1pts (Sorry Bear Fan's ^^) 3 - Samsung KHAN : Khan looking strong (RorO, JangBi, Reality). Sry My dear SKT1 :'(
Anti Team
5 - (KT) Crazy : Don't feel like he's going to win ^^ 4 - (CJ) Hydra : Was one of the worst player Last round, hope it continues like this ahahah 4 - (KT) hitmaN : I just don't really like him
Disqualified my team because I made changes after the games had already started? Come on... I remember past FPL rounds where you let people make changes well after the games had started.

Show me the rule that says "you may not edit your team if signups are still open and games have started". I'm not gonna argue this further, I'm just disappointed that I wasted my time and I'm missing out on my first FPL season in a long time.
Well I started trying to make my team with 1 min 28 seconds left, I guess it makes sense why mine is no longer there. I had Zest and Free on my anti, hastily picked, and Stats on my main team, so I guess I would have done awful, at least in the starting rounds, anyways . Pity.
I believe I submitted my team within like 30 seconds of the game starting too .

Games have started, so editing is clearly cheating. I don't get why you can't see that.
fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu my own fault for trying to get free off my anti after he won his game i guess T_T any chance of returning teams edited after the start to their state before edit? have mercy
any chance of returning teams edited after the start to their state before edit? have mercy
Please do this if possible! I made a trade after the games had started and immediately changed it back. There is no reward for doing well in fantasy proleague anyways is there?
Damn so pissed that I did this. I messed with the team to see if it would actually work and immediately changed back T_T. Makes me sad since i've been staying with FPL since the start of the SC2 season.

We can't release it before lineups and roster updates are out, because then players would be unfairly priced. For example, last round both Bisu and Bbyong were way underpriced at two points each because we tried to release asap. Also, some players would be omitted, for example Dark and Journey from last round or Trust/Bunny/Trend etc... from this round.

so terrible lol
Stop picking expensive teams when the results vary so much round to round... Save the money for better players and get a cheap team which'll still get you some points with potential for more.
so appareantly you get ranked 332 for picking bogus and STX soul... (i had 2 more STX players but also got -2 for anti). well, if he keeps playing like this and if khan starts to win, then this'll surely be a good FPL for me!
innovation was the easiest pick ever, he faced the thoughest opponent from EGTL in the opening set, and i just dont think hero's on his level i was considering taking zest, shame i didnt... about the best team, what was the cost for CJ, 1 or 2?

Here's what I think went wrong: When I posted the above two days ago, Day 4 had just finished and SKT vs STX wasn't updated yet (hence the helpful reminder for FanTaSy). On my end, however, I had already entered the team result for Day 4 and thus was faced with a 1-point discrepancy for PartinG (SKT won, so +1 for him). Knowing that he did break a streak on Day 2 (which had already been updated), I checked his "Sb" column and there was a "0" there. So it seemed reasonable for me to assume that his streak break wasn't scored. Unfortunately, I checked this on the "Detailed Team" tab (I have PartinG on my team) instead of cross-checking with the "Stats" tab. The former tab, however, does not seem to show any streak breaks in the "Sb" column there whatsoever.
Sorry for the oversight and apologies for this being the reason things were held up. When monk replied to my PM earlier tonight that you guys were still trying to fix some scoring mistakes, I assumed there was some other problem still, as for me PartinG's score seemed "fixed" already when I checked two days ago, a few hours after my post.
Oh well. My apologies again. Let the trading begin!
This is not going so well. I don't remember the thought process behind putting Hydra on anti, but there he is. I really like the fast updates though. Great work ❤
I could kick myself for not trading someone away and getting free as I planned to. Meant to get EffOrt (replacing Reality) by all means, but then needed to replace my only Terran player with another. Got BaBy then as the second allowed trade and he scored decently, but dang it.
Shame I dropped the idea of getting Wooki and free right from the start. Seems like all the players that did really well in the last all-kill round also came out strong this round. So picking them was a good strategy. Alas, I changed my mind at the last minute. Sigh.
Well, I am giving up this round. I actually gave up already last week, all kill in SPL is just tough. I should have joined the no trade group - too late for that.
And I will never ever again put free on my antiteam. Did it twice (in allkill both times), he just straight up destroyed me completely both times. When I had him in my main, he didn't deliver enough though. free = new Roro?

He got an all-kill in Round 2 -_- and if that wasn't enough he was a dragon from BW. I've had way more than my share of bad anti picks but I would indeed stay away from free.
The final week of Round 5 is upon us. The first match is already on Thursday (!). Open up trading please?
Also, I guess we should all inform everyone that the final Round 6 already starts on Monday, a day after Round 5 concludes? Would be a shame if a lot of people miss making a team again.
There are two ways we can do this. Hide the current round and start a new one - results for the remaining games will still be entered, but require a special link to see, or wait for this round to completely end and have less than a day for sign ups.

I think most would prefer starting their new team since only a few are still in the run.
I hope we have enough time between round 6 sign ups, it really is a lot more fun when more people participate. Plus its the LAST round, i want hype and TL previews and stuff :3 pretty please :3
is there a way to sign up starting at round 6? I haven't played this at all but recently got into watching PL quite and would like to join starting at the next round

You can just join in, even though you haven't been in the last 6 once signups are up, speaking of which,

Sorry monk, just to clarify, the sign ups for round 6 will be after the matches in ~14 hours from now? so will there be no points / value adjustment from these first matches?
I appreciate how hard it must be to sort everything with such a quick turnaround from the last round, and you guys do an amazing job, just wondering

the value adjustment will definitely change, they were probably working on them during the last matches of egtl vs skt1 and t8 vs stx

Signups will be up very soon. Everything is ready, just need to check everything five times, cause we can't change it after we set it up.
