KeSPA really needs to make an exception for Parting now. With the loss of Life and ST-YoE going down the tubes, Proleague is the most boring and stagnant that it's ever been. It may as well be a 4 or 5 team league right now. Also, are Prime, MVP and ST actually getting any support from KeSPA? Their new recruits are so unpromising... it's just painful to watch.

P.S. Please bring back best of 7. We're just watching the same 3-4 people over and over and over.

They probably didn't talk about KT-MVP because there's not much to say. MVP has done well to get this far but they're gonna get stomped.

The fact that those two teams are in direct contention for the 4th playoff spot along with Samsung and it didn't even get mentioned in the article at all is weird though. Even if they expect stomps.

But it was actually mentioned, in the first paragraph of the recap portion:

Last week fell back into the ugly trend of having one close 3-2 match and three decidedly not-close matches. With the season nearing its halfway point, the teams are pulling no punches and we can see the wheat separated from the chaff. Leading the race this round are CJ Entus in first place with a perfect 6-0, guaranteed to secure first place regardless of the outcome of next week's games. In tow are Jin Air and SKT1 who will be fighting to determine who gets 2nd and 3rd place at the end of the round. Further down we find KT, Samsung Galaxy Khan and MVP, all tied at 3-3 score but separated by indicator points. Given the right set of circumstances any of KT, Samsung and MVP could make top 4. Prime and Startale-yoe limp hopelessly behind.

I agree. Both teams are doing very badly in Proleague. Okay. But if there was an era to end it ended long ago, and both teams will keep on going anyhow.

It's not about what's more important, it's about how goddamn entertaining it is to have two teams doing so horribly.

And I'm probably a horrible person for being more entertained if KT reaches the playoffs than if either of those teams goes 0-7.

You are being unfair to ACE. First of all they didnt have such bad records, they had many 2-3 3-4 matches and overall had better image than prime and ST. Their players were ex champions or finalists that were in most cases 25-27 years old and they could only practice like 4 hours a day (I remember reading that in an interview). Taking all that stuff into consideration I think it is a bit unfair to compair the two teams.

I don't think anyone (except fans) consider current state Prime or ST above ACE. At least I don't. As you mentioned ACE was a team full of veterans who couldnt practice much. Prime and ST are full of full-time pros...

Actually their players should be ashamed of their performance...

Of the players that were present for the infamous GSTL Finals in Las Vegas, way back in 2012, only 3 players remain: Bomber, Hack, Curious and Byun, one of which has disappeared mysteriously off the face of the earth and seems to have no intention of returning. The fifth, Parting, is shackled to SK Telecom for years to come and could not aid Startale in clawing out of the pit they have fallen into even if he wanted to.
