Stats plays, DRG doesn't. Woot. But, here's what I'm on the fence about. All my main team players don't actually play anymore so the only ones I can trade are Maru and TaiLs (lol.) Maru I don't think I'm gonna get rid of so... CJ Entus --> Prime/MVP??? On one hand, both teams play twice. On the other hand, I very much doubt their ability to win their matches. | ||

On one hand, both teams play twice. On the other hand, I very much doubt their ability to win their matches. Probably a good choice for the anti-team trade. For the main team: Maru faces Choya so I'd keep him unless you're willing to gamble on Billowy (which is reallllly far out there but does play twice on Maze). TAiLS is ok because it will balance out DRG anti-team, but you could also trade him from Gumiho (faces billowy). Trading TAiLS for anyone is quite risky though. CJ probably wins about 3-2 (2 points). If this is the case Prime would have to take it to two ace matches and win one, or win 3-1 and not lose 0-3, to break even, but both scenarios are unlikely. Alternatively, MVP has a weakish lineup against Samsung so might not manage to win against them, so MVP's not really worth it unless they can beat CJ well enough. I would keep CJ. | ||

On my anti I decided to take the risk and not trade sniper away despite him being in the lineup. I wanted to avoid the trade tax since the fight for the number 1 spot might get really close. I also figured that he was quite the underdog vs Roro, and as I just saw he indeed lost his game. | ||

Most of the others have stork as well, and many have rogue. Marineking plays rogue. That will be the match that decides if I keep my number 1 spot or not, as a win from Marineking should give me an 7 to 9 point advantage to second place.

Although the points from today haven't been updated yet, currently things look like this: FuRong: 132 (Stork 2, Reality 5*, Maru 4, Rogue 4) ihchulk: 128 (Stork 2, Reality 5*, Rogue 4) phagga: 124 (Stork 2) *Reality gets a bonus point for three wins in a row Although you are in third, we are the only two who can win, because me and ihchulk have identical teams with respect to the last day of play. Whatever happens on Tuesday, he will finish four points behind me, and you'll be either first or third. All my main team members are done, so I can't gain anymore points. There are still a number of scenarios in which you can beat me. phagga potential points: MKP +4 (potential +8 total if he were to also win an ace match) FuRong potential losses: hyvaa -4, Super -4 (potential -12 total if one of them also went on to win an ace match) It's certainly not impossible. MKP has a decent chance against Stats, although a Prime win is unlikely. If MKP loses, you could still tie with me if hyvaa and Super both won, but you could only beat me if one of them also went on to win an ace match. I was super nervous during today's matches, especially when it looked like Maru was gonna lose. I'm not sure if I'm even gonna be able to watch on Tuesday... TL;DR If I lose this FPL because of fucking hyvaa then I'm gonna throw my computer out the window | ||

Also, still regretting that I took life from anti to my main team last week ![]() | ||

I have only traded once this season and that was after the first week. Everytime I log on, it says that Trading is closed. Is it only in the weekends or something (almost never online during weekends ![]() | ||

Also, I realised I forgot to calculate one thing, although it doesn't make a difference. If MVP were to win their match, we would both lose one point on our antis for Sniper and Alive respectively. | ||

Would it really kill TL to give out two in the case of a tie? Also, I realised I forgot to calculate one thing, although it doesn't make a difference. If MVP were to win their match, we would both lose one point on our antis for Sniper and Alive respectively. Well, choosing the right player as Captain is part of the game, so I don't mind that rule at all. It's not like they're going the Dreamhack way of tossing a coin ![]() | ||
