It's what you've all been waiting for! It's time for a new season!


>>>>>Sign Up Here!!!<<<<<
Signups close in


Teams added or changed after signups close will be disqualified!
Please read about the changes to this season!


If you want to share your team with others, please do so here:



Well shit that crept up on us. Proleague 2016 starts on Monday, and we're in a rush! It's time to sign up for Fantasy Proleague or risk missing out on another great round of FPL. Sure, there are less teams. Sure, there are less players. But that only makes FPL even more challenging! Picking the right team from the get-go is going to be more important than ever, and finding diamonds in the rough far rarer. Better make sure to read up on all the changes in our various news threads.

BUT there's also a big change for FPL this season. Unfortunately, because we weren't given enough of a heads up for this season of Proleague, Round 1 will have no trading. The currently FPL system is a little old and clunky (but still reliable!) so we're going to have to make a fix before we can go back to normal. Sadly 3 days isn't enough to fix the problem, so we'll try our best to get things back to normal if it's possible.



Here are some important facts to know going into the next round:
  • Week 1 starters and maps can be found here
  • Round 1 will be the standard Proleague format. See the scoring section for more info.
  • You can find more info about scheduling here
  • Matches will be played Mondays and Tuesdays.
  • There will be 6 weeks of play.
  • Joining a group is now available from the group standings page (so you can link people to your group).
  • You can find the final Round 1 rosters here



How to Play
  • You choose 6 players and 1 Pro Team that score you points when they play well.
  • You pick 3 players for your Anti-team as well. You lose points when they play well.
  • Players and teams can be traded between weeks for those valued less than them.

Team Selection

Main Team
+ Show Spoiler [Click to Show] +
  • Pick 6 players for your Main Team, including a captain who will be a tiebreaker
  • Pick 1 Proleague team (i.e. MVP, CJ, SKT, etc.)
  • You cannot trade your captain (more on trading later)
  • Your 6 players and 1 Proleague team cannot exceed 30 points in cost
  • Your Main Team must contain at least one of each race at all times

Anti Team
+ Show Spoiler [Click to Show] +
  • Pick 3 players for your Anti Team
  • These players score points like Main Team players, but their score counts against you
  • Your Anti Team must have a value of at least 13 points (minimum)

Basic Team Selection Strategy
+ Show Spoiler [Click to Show] +
  • Pick players for your Main Team who you believe will exceed their point value from before (underrated or rising players)
  • Pick players for your Anti Team who you believe will do worse than they did previously (overrated or slumping players)
  • Designate as Captain a player who you believe will be a lock to be good throughout the season, because you can't trade him



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.



Good luck, and tell your friends!

Can you explain why there is no trading? What about the system denies that option? (just for curiosity )
Other than that, great to have spl and fpl again! ^^

The most interesting thing is how long it will take for you to mess up trade/sign-up lock timing.

Edit: oh nevermind it already happened.

Conspiracy: R1CH opened then immediately locked to make sure he would win.

That's pretty much the only explanation which makes sense. Or lichter is trolling RICH and us, that could be the case too

You should auto-enroll everyone in the No-Trade Challenge group.

This round might be the hardest ever -- I only started playing last year. Were there harder rounds in the past?

Yeah sure, but i don't get why it's important to have more time to allow for trades? Apparently it would require you to do some more manual work and there simply isn't enought time left?

if they had told us earlier that this was the format/sched (not even exact sched just the types of playdays) we could have fixed it in time, maybe improve the system even
