First of all, thanks for a great season! Proleage is absolutely one of my favourite tournaments to watch  .
Suggestions:
1. A many have mentionded, please try to bring the bo7 format back, if possible.
2. Please schedule one of the matchdays to Sunday again. This way more foreigners could watch the english stream live again. At least one day.
3. More map diversity throughout the season would be nice. In the past great maps surfaced in Proleague, which were then used in ladder and WCS tournaments later.
4. Please, please, please enable healthbars for the english stream! Give the english stream their own observer if that is what's needed. There is a difference between foreign and korean viewers it seems, but not having healthbars can be really infuriating for us and the healthbars should be set to "damaged" for the english stream.
Thanks for all your work and your continued effort to improve your product!

It was mostly very very good. Three things though :
-Bo7 ! Most teams already have the lineup for it
-please please please, more new/exctiting/crazy/ridiculous maps. PL this season has been very boring regarding maps, while it is historically its role to bring new map concepts to the test.
-THESE DAMN HEALTHBARS
|
1) HEALTHBARS!
2) Bo7 and all-kills are needed! More than the last season
and please... PLEASE... PLEASE! When you create highlights on YouTube PLEASE change song, 2 years in a row with the same song from Sum41/Blink182 (I don't know exactly) is too much
|
Keep doing what youre doing because I love it!!! Few points though:
- Consider switching back to Bo7 matches.
- Id love to see at least one full round of all-kill format.
- English subtitles for all the videos during the breaks would be amazing!
- Oh yeah and unit healthbars during big battles!

Personally I watch Proleague religiously. The only thing that would get me even more excited would be any sort of extra games. I would've loved to see some sort of Race Wars. I would also love to see any kind of All-Star-style matches. Be it the best 5 players from teams ranked 1-4-6 vs 2-3-5, or any sort of variation. I love All Star games. Especially if it were All-Kill format. I think everyone would.
Other than that, amazing tournament, can't wait for the next season to start.
|
I personally suppose the all-kill format in regular season games, because it rewards teams for having many solid players (a TEAM), instead of using their star player(s)to carry them through every time.
|
1. Bring BO7 back. It gets quite redundant watching the same players play over and over again.
2. English subtitles during videos.
|
Please, bring back your own made maps for Proleague. Adding a couple of them give SPL a distinct flavour over the countless tournaments that are forced to use the ladder/WCS map pool, and makes room for cool, prepared strategies too!

An Archon mode game in every series could be interesting.

1. Format: Really need Bo7. The Bo5 Ace match really has no hype around it. We got to see a couple dozen players come out once or twice. We need more than just a core of 20-30 players to talk about we need that plus snipers and rookies. Take Zoun for example. He was Primes only bright spot this season, then SKT grabbed him and he hasn't played since. We NEED Bo7
2. Maps: Kespa needs to reintroduce their own personally made maps. The maps do not I will repeat DO NOT need to be perfectly balanced for all 3 races. It's okay to have some ladder maps, you should but you need to have 1-3 non pool maps per round. It's okay to have a map that one race is never played on or we can expect a mirror match up every time. Its just not okay to have 7 maps like that. Speaking of which, you need a larger map pool, between 8-10 maps per round.
3: Production. Its okay for the most part. But what happened at the grand finals was a bit unforgivable.
4.Other: Overall proleague is Okay the way it is but it needs to improve to stay relevant.

Oh, and I would love to see a video about health in gaming. I mean with the wrist issues and not proper seating(looking at you, Maru!) etc. it would be nice to see a regular video about proper seating, proper gaming and all about this. I know these information are all over the internet, but I think it would be cool to inform directly.
Also it would be nice to see some information about "Why is this player missing again." Eg. interview Prime about ByuN!

1. Please i know that English caster pool in Korea is not that large, but if you can not replace Wolf please ask him to talk less nonsense. Valdes hypes the game well and Moonglade is a good analyst, but Wolf 
2. Same as above.

IMO Proleague has the best production in all Korean SCII leagues. In terms of production I have no problem, except that maybe the venue for finals for this year was a bit small (which is actually a good thing).
BO7 would be a nice change compared to the last year, so that we can see more depth and variety in teams. However if the teams are unable to meet this requirement I guess it can remain as BO5.
Also, why has proleague stopped using their own custom maps? I felt that some of the best maps produced were from proleague (Frost, King Sejong Station, etc) and some of the unique maps provided us with entertaining games (Maze, Fighting Spirit, etc). I feel that if the maps are great enough Blizzard will include those maps in their WCS map pool too.
I think Archon mode might be an interesting addition for proleague once we get LOTV. I think it has a great potential there.
Maybe even have an event showmatch between rounds. Remember that one showmatch where the coaches got to pick their own team and compete against each other? That was very interesting to watch. Something similar to that would be great.

Awesome proleague, with great production, maybe bringing bo7 in regular saison will be great.
And also (a true dream) why not making one the bo1 in archon mode 
|
I like the format just make it a Bo7 instead of Bo5. No all-kill format please in the normal rounds because one of the best parts of Proleague is seeing lots of different players whether they're in the A-team or B-team. All-kill format removes that from happening as you just have the same few players playing and relies on just having one or two 'super players' rather than encouraging having a strong balance throughout the team.
Apart from that I'd like there to be more map variety as others have stated. I'd pretty happy though if things stayed the same as before.

Brilliant Season guys, i thoroughly enjoyed everything from beginning to end.
The bo5 format is perfect for a weekly team league before getting to the bo7 grand finals.
The only thing i'd like to see more is, coach interviews, and player interviews in between breaks so they can talk to their foreign fans

- bring back bo7
- add a 2v2 and/or an archon match (you could allow players to play in the same series a 2v2 /or archon and a 1v1)
|
Please consider allowing foreign teams to participate in PL (ROOT, Liquid, Myinsanity etc). It will add more variability to PL roster. And do something with PRIME, their eternal loosiness is boring already
