Great season and the best SC2 league on the planet. I love you guys and thank you for everything!!

2 points -

1) Maps. As lots of people have previously stated.

2) Incentivize teams playing ALL their players. For example, if every player on the team gets 1 win in the same round, that team gets bonus points (a significant amount). Maybe 2 wins, I'm not sure what the best way to do it would be. But anything to encourage teams to improve all their players and showcase them all as well would be great. Fresh faces almost always create more excitement.

Yeah lets not do that.

The best and easiest way for more players to play is to move to best of 7 and add 1 or 2 rounds

I don't see how adding more rounds will incentivize using a broader base of players.

Hey, proleague was amazing this year again. I'd just like to see more games and more players being fielded. Would be nice to have bo7 during regular season as well.
why do you not believe it? the legend has alived!

It forces teams to not hold on to bench players for more games, it forces teams to use B-teamers when A-teamers go to tournaments.

Harsher punishments for hideous crimes like typing Korean "gg".

Also (and seriously): More teams but I understand that that's not entirely in KeSPA's control.

I mean, no disqualification for jin air in finals, was so disappointing

The problem with the 5 year rule is that it's completely contradictory to the format of the league, especially with big teams having so many players. Basically if you sign for a Proleague team, you can only play for them for 5 years in the Proleague even if you move on to another team. But those teams are just fielding the same 4 (best) players that they have.
The rule is archaic and outdated, it's designed to not let young players be bought and sold like pieces of meat but in reality it hampers them if they can't break into the top 4 of a 'big team' whereas they could easily get into the top 4 of a slightly smaller team and would get games thus enhancing their experience and careers. This provides way to much protection for the bigger teams with the most cash. Also some players like to travel abroad whilst they are young and competitive on the international scene, when they return home to Korea after a year or two away they should not be penalised for taking high level SC2 across the globe.

Another thing that could be done to assist more players getting a run out in Proleague is to encourage some of the better players to travel to foreign competitions. Jin Air seems to do this the most. The rest of the teams only really do it near the end of the season if a player just needs 'x' amounts of points to get to Blizzcon. We must remember that the players are paid a salary (some very large) to represent their team, and in Korea the best way to represent your team is to play well in Proleague, but perhaps the teams should also consider that the career of a Progamer isn't that long and offering them the chance to see the world and earn their own prize money is something they should support.

My feedback:

Give Prime Money...
yeah sorry, but Prime was left with 4 players and zero chance to do something. Prime-matches have been like "yeah lol, will someone really lose a map to them?". Think about some additional money for prime so they can atleast fight against MVP and Samsung.

Let PartinG play.
Just for the sake of good games, hype and fans, let him play (if he wants).

Bo7:
I think most people have said enough about that. I know even Bo5 take alot of time, but with LotV the games will be faster and it gives so much more of everything, games, hypes, sick comebacks, 4:0 sweeps, chances for players and so on.

Finals:
The final event was great but I allways think that it is a bit frustraiting, when the semi- and the Ro4 in the playoffs are Bo3 with Bo7s each, while the finals are only one Bo7. Maybe think something out for that case.

Marketing:
Please give us the opportunity to buy jerseys, shirts and so on from all Kespa teams. Have you seen these Samsung jackets? SBENU stuff? SKT 1 jersey? Sell it, we will buy it!

ObserverPC for foreign casters:
Make it possible that the english stream can either show their cam or the offical observercam.

RIP Sojung?
Where is she?

Amateurs:
Give the teams something for drafting or recruting fresh faces.

KeSpa is a Korean government organisation and they have rules, you can't just bend the rules for certain people, however if the rules are outdated they can be changed.

KeSpa is not a gouvernment organisation.
And yeah, they have rules. But this rule seems to hurt not only special players, but also viewers, fans, hype and the games. Reducing the "cooldown" after leaving a team during contract time from 5 years to maybe 1 or 2 years could be possible.

Well the parent org is the Korean Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism and KeSpa works within their remit, so it kind of is.... Also affiliate to Korean Olympic Comittee.

But I totally agree with your other point as I mentioned before

I just wanna reiterate from what others in the thread have said:
1) more proleague-unique maps; especially the crazy ones are fun to watch, and if they turn out to be imbalanced you can just remove them after 1 round
2) Kespa/Proleague/team merchandise please - let us support you and the teams
3) BRING BACK 10Q 10A!!!! I loved that show, it's so nice to get some of the players' personality and to see them in a casual setting with their friends

And lastly, if we are allowed to make unrealistic wishes, something could be done to rejuvenate Prime...though they may already be a lost cause...

I love Wolf, Brendan, and Moonglade, but I echo the sentiment of studying the players' histories better. No one mentioned that the last game of the finals was played between two former teammates who won Proleague only 2 years ago while members of STX Soul. I understand only Brendan and Moonglade were casting the last game, so maybe Wolf would have remembered.

proleague is by far my favorite starcraft event.

What i would reaaaaally like to see is BO7 coming back, so as to see more subs playing and more emphasis on depth, rather than a team able to survive with a 1-2 punch

- SPL unique map with a map rotation closer to what BW had. Maybe take a look at SHOUTCRAFT Clan wars (even if the maps are all a little bit too much).

- A spoilerless platform where we can watch matches without having to search on teamiquid.

- I will buy EVERY KT Rolster merchandising available if in reasonable price. (No to 600$ jacket).

- Consider 2v2 OR archon mode (but not if in a Bo5 format). Would love to see Bo7 if schedule could permit it.

- Would love to be abble to watch SPL on weekends (but i guess not possible because schedule and tournaments).

- More empasis on player music could be fun. For exemple in order to reveal an ACE match player. Would love to hear the music before they enter the stage. Like in WWE

First of all I would like to thank the proleague organisation and tell them than this has been a pleasure watching proleague all year long.

For good points I would say that this year was a big improvement in term of organization compared to last year. I loved the studio, the stream was always on time and did not have any problem, it was a pleasure really.

Concerning improvement to be made, personnaly I would love to change the match format to Bo7. Why? not just because it would give me the occasion to see more of the best starcraft in the world, but also and mostly because it would allow us to see new, talented young players with a lot of potential that can not currently be used by coaches because a Bo5 is much less flexible than a Bo7.
Let's be real, we saw most of the teams using the same 4 players over and over again, jin air or KT comes to mind for example. It would be exciting to see new rising stars get a shot a the big scene as well !!

To finish, I would love to see more tri-cast on the english stream. I don't really understand why there are 3 korean casters and only 2 english ones. This way I could see my favorite caster @Wolf comment all the matches. What a treat that would be...
Wolf if you read this, thank you for making me love Starcraft so much over the past few years even though i never played it myself. And thanks again KesPa !!

Ps: Where the fuck is Sojung ? She was so cool
