Got completely raped in both rounds 1 and 2 by my own biases. Had Jangbi on antiteam round 2 when he started going crazy and destroying people, had Jaehoon on my anti round 1. Hopeing to avoid this tragedy of picking undervalued protosses who come out of nowhere and win when they shouldn't this time around.
I decided KT will make a comeback this round and return to former glory.

Big believer in Woongjin Stars, they are very deep and I could see them getting a lot of 4-0s and 4-1s
Captain Motive - trying out the low point captain strat, plus hes seeing play time in round 1 and I think he will be fielded more frequently as KT's 6th player. Also KT points
Effort - hes really ramping up his performance lately, even getting a few vP wins and has ace potential, plus I was a fan of his play in BW so I want to have him on my team 
Wooki - he has had very strong play when he is sent out, plus his round 1 is vs a Protoss and he is a PvP sniper
Soulkey - still not sure on this pick, his play has faltered lately but he still has had strong results in the past and he has ace potential. Might trade him for herO[jOin] though, any thoughts on that?
Light - Hes been fairly strong and I think he will continue his trend of good play, plus Woongjin points
hOn_sin - he was a strong player in Round 1 for Woongin, and I think he will continue the trend. Has strong vT, havent seen a game of his vZ though so thats a bit worrisome. Still Woongjin points
Stork is my big pointer on anti, His vT is strong but his other mu's seem relatively weak and I could see him losing a bit more this round, and I dont see Samsung doing as well out of allkill format. Hes the one I'm debating the most though, any ideas on who else might be good here?
Shine and hyvaa have really under performed and seem like locks for anti imo

I went with Frotoss as my captain since he has like no trade value and is simultaneously the man. Like I said: Frotoss is bestoss. I decided to pass on the SKT 1-point deal cause I think KT is going to absolutely destroy this round. At first I was trying to get a good mix of teams represented on my main team, but really with trying to balance cost vs apperances vs skill levels I ended up with basically all SKT and KT players, and Zenio. The way I see it, if things start to go sour, I've set myself up well to trade away to better players/teams going with Flash and KT on my main team.
Stork has started to wake up a bit and do well in round two with the new format, but I think he still has a ways to go before he really gets back to the top, and I'm hoping to use his 7-point cost to fill up my anti team while he is still under-performing. We'll see though, and he's got a decent trade value in that he's only 7, not an 8 or 9, so I do have some outs.
Anyway, here's to not being negative this round in FPL!!!!
Cheers, GLHF
Edit: Somehow I missed that I had a perfect racial split of 1:1:1 on my anti and Main teams. Way to go me for not being a SC2 racist.

Plus he's the team's Ace in a number of cases, which is very good. Afrotoss- Loved his play last round especially in a PvZ on ohana where I thought he had great understanding of the late game. Expecting a potential breakout. Rain- Yay people are starting to decrease his value! I love this guy and his play and I'm seriously hoping he brings that championship form back. Revival- Scored a bunch of points for me last round, and appears to be getting a lot of playing time. Telecom T1- I know they haven't been that good, but 1 point for serious? I had to pick Telecom when I saw that. I originally wanted to go with a bunch of 4-6 players, but when I saw that a Code A terran was available for 2 points, remembered how much Paralyze impressed me, and realized I could essentially get 2 aces on my team with this setup I jumped at the chance. My Anti-Team. Seems to be a tradition for me to put Jaedong on my anti, because I don't think he's going to be in the same condition in a not Kespa training regiment, he will probably be attending more foreign tourneys than hes ever done and that will throw him off. soO- I had him on my main team last round and then watched in agony as he banked 4k gas while building only roach-ling against an opponent who had committed to immortal/sentry based play on 2 base. After I saw that absurd display, I knew he was going on my anti this round. TRUE- Don't know anything about this guy, but I don't remember him playing much. Hopefully this doesn't bite me. afrotoss pvz on ohana shouldnt be a good indicator. it is know that it is P favored. no wonder teams always sent toss on this map.(and they removed it from the map pool)
It had nothing to do with the map or the way the map affected the game. Paralyze did a three-base timing push with colossi. So often this turns into an all-in because players fail to set up a transition into mothership/archon. They committ too much to the timing and it turns sour. Paralyze had the transition already prepared when his push was eventually beat back. He had a mothership almost finished by the time his push finally ended and a templar archives almost done.
It had nothing to do with the map at all. Paralyze failed to make a mistake I've seen almost every Protoss make. I was impressed with his understanding of the game. T

Week 1 could go extremely well or extremely poorly for me.
Main Team
JYP - He is likely to be sent out almost every round in this format, decent value at 3 points and will probably win week 1. Made him my captain since I felt it was better to have my higher pointers free to be traded.
herO[join]/revival/stats - All have tough matches in week 1, gambling a bit here, but they are all fairly solid and I needed a 5 point zerg in my team, would have picked Action except he is in game 6 in week 1 and I doubt it will get there. Stats has pretty strong PvP so i'm hoping he will pull out the win on Rain...but it is rain so who knows. Cross my fingers for herO
Light - Pretty great for a 4 pointer, likely to win his week 1 match, hoping he will get sent out a lot, considered making him my captain but ended up deciding id like him to be tradeable
Innovation(Bogus) - If STX can ever get to ace match, it will probably be innovation or dear playing. I'm hoping he can win some games, will probably get sent out every match..hoping other STX members can step up and at least allow for the ace match
EG-TL - Tough week 1 lineup for EG-TL despite playing against the weakest team...no stephano and no taeja  . I'm hoping those 2 will be back in action soon though. For week 1 I just hope either revival or puma can pull a win, and then JYP and HerO. not so confident in jaedong's zvp against dear and innovation should stomp zenio (better for my FPL anyways since hes on my main team)
Anti-team
Stork - He has been on a bit of a tear lately, but I still think hes overvalued at 7 points, plus he is playing Hydra week 1 so im hoping Hydra will destroy him.
Last - Not seeing play in week 1, and seems to have fizzled out..pretty good anti for a 3 pointer
True - betting on him losing to Light, seemed to be the safest 3 pointer for week 1 who is actually playing.

I think you have this down except if you just replace Zenio/Roro with two of Stats/Wooki/Action

heh, I decided to lay off the Big pointers this time, My 8 pointers in the last 2 rounds both did pretty well (herO[join]) and (sOs), but i felt like there were too many solid 5 pointers. Could screw me over if these matches all go to ace though xD

Anti Team

5 TY(Baby)
Main Team:
My captain is HerO because he is a very solid player and undervalued at 7. Also, the other EGTL aces (Stephano and Taeja) are not available, and he is better than JYP in all aspects. The only other EGTL ace player would be Revival.
Innovation is the ace player on STX and he has shown that he can be dominant at times, and he always has a trick up his sleeve with the sick micro to back it up.
Action is just all-round extremely strong in all the games I've seen, even in the ones he lost. Good pickup for 5pts.
Dear has been performing very well lately, and considering his opponent this week is terrible at ZvP, this is a good pick.
Paralyze is a player I picked randomly last round. I first heard about him as the "Afrotoss", and if coach Boxer is willing to send him out in an all-kill format, then I have faith in him too. He did win a few games, and even beat Action in a drawn out PvZ! He is an absolute steal for only 2pts.
Now I just need a 4pt player, and there aren't very many to choose from. Soo is pretty bad IMO, but considering his opponent is Motive (2pts) on Neo Bifrost, I think he has a good chance to win this week. I can always trade him later.
I pick SKT1 for my team, even though they are doing pretty bad. All-kill format favours teams with strong ace players, but now we are back to the regular proleague format, where preparation becomes an enormous factor. This is where I put my faith in Boxer.
Anti-team:
I don't expect Major to play, and if he does get sent out, I don't think he will do well enough to win. Foreigner giants like Naniwa, Huk, Thorzain, Mana, etc... struggle in Korean tournaments and it will be no exception for Major.
After seeing Jaedong matching up against Dear this week, I decided to pick him. His ZvP was atrocious last time I saw him play, going mutalisks against a phoenix opening after being set back with a failed zergling rush was a terrible decision. The zergling rush was a bad strategy anyways. With that said, his ZvZ is really good and I can always trade him later.
Now I need a 5pt player, and none of them seem to be very good anti-team picks. Ty is going up against sOs this week and considering he is performing poorly lately, it is pretty safe to bet against him.

10 Flash (captain)
3 JYP
5 P7GAB(Wooki)
1 SK Telecom T1
Flash leading the charge with some cheap but somewhat solid players behind him.
-Flash I think he's a player who just gets stronger and stronger the more he plays and he's seem to have greatly improved his shaky TvT in Round 2 making him an incredible all round player now.
-P7GAB(Wooki) A PvP monster and PvP seems to happen a lot in Proleague so I'm expecting him net a lot of PvP victories.
-Dear Another PvP monster, Same reasoning as Wooki. Hopefully they don't play against each other.
-Bravo(hon_sin) A solid TvT specialist. I'm guessing he disappeared in Round 2 because of the format. Hopefully he'll be back to squeak out some wins.
-Crazy-Hydra Does well against weak players but seems to fall apart against strong players. Hopefully KT realises this and sends him out against weak players for easy wins.
-JYP He's plays often for EG-TL so he has a better chance at grabbing some wins than most other players worth 3 points.
SK Telecom T1 Boy did they fall off in Round 2. SKT1 is still a very solid team and I believe they'll bounce back in Round 3.
Anti Team
4 Light
5 Revival
4 Terminator(Sang)
Going for a more spread out Anti Team with unimpressive players.
-Revival Worth a whopping 5 points, less than 50% win rate, unproven in matchups. Maybe he'll be the RorO of Round 3? I hope not.
-Light Why is this guy worth 4 points? Because he took a game off of Fantasy? Big deal.
-Terminator(Sang) He did okay in Round 2. That's it. Nothing special.

Ok,
after doing reasonably well in round 1 (Top 100 if I hadn't simply forgotten to trade Jaehoon for Stephano on Anti) and some tough luck in round 2 (Taeja as captain, SKT as team and JangBi on Anti  ) I don't know about my choices this time. I really badly wanted to go for other players but they were all too expensive to be justifiable. So I'm hoping on getting some big ace points from Effort and Innovation and for the rest went with the solid Dear and some players that have doable games this week. I'm definitely planning on trading a lot more in this round.
Anti team I'm hoping for Jaedong to lose this week to be able to trade him away nicely. TY is pretty much a gamble against better judgement because I know that Baby is an excellent Proleague-Player and I'm just hoping it won't come back to bite me in the ass.

I feel really good about this one. I think there are a lot of steals this time around, as well as a lot of incredibly overrated players, so it will be interesting to see how this round shakes out.
Light (captain): Still underrated despite being the best Terran on a good team. He's been consistent since the transition. I don't see myself ever wanting to trade him.
Bogus: 6 points seems really low, he is still one of the best Kespa players, and he will be STX's ace at least half of the time. I could see trading him midway through the season for someone like Fantasy/Stephano if he overperforms.
Wooki/Action: KT's roleplayers. They will likely start every week, and they both put up solid numbers. I think this format is kinder to them than All-Kill, since they seem to prepare for the maps pretty well. KT is probably still the best team, so having two of their best starters can't hurt.
CJ.herO: It was between him or Revival. I think Revival is slightly more consistent, but EG-TL's roster is unstable so I wanted to avoid taking any of their players. herO will start every week and be CJ's ace a lot of the time. He's a better player than most of the Protoss rated above him.
soO: Kind of my wildcard pick. I only had a few points to throw around, so I had to decide whether to grab Fantasy and a 1-pointer, or herO+soO+SKT, or herO+1pt+KT. I settled on the balanced approach because I think a lot of my players have the potential to do well, and then I can trade one of them for Fantasy later, whereas with a 1pt player or KT(team) there's really no room for growth.
SKT T1(team): See above. Could be wrong, KT is definitely a better team and only 3 points extra, but there were just so many good 5-6point players I felt like I had to have them all. I still think I'm getting a bargain at 1pt for SKT.
Anti:
Stork: Kind of amazed I'm seeing him on fewer anti's now, even though he's worth more points. If you seriously think he's playing better than free, you need to rewatch the games. He only boasts a 50% winrate in Round 2, including many embarassing losses, and his only good day came when 3 of his opponents donated games to him. Easiest anti of my life.
Jaedong: Jaedong is actually quite good, but again, EGTL has roster fluctuations and I think he's only the 3rd best Zerg on his team, with Zenio being a solid 4th. I don't think he'll ever get an ace match and his playtime is going to be severely limited.
Major: Probably will never see a game, probably zero chance of winning if he does, and I don't expect T8 to do very well.

Main:
KT Rolster seems like the most balanced team so I picked it as a team and also took 3 players for the Main Team. Stats didn't lose a single game in R1 and hopefully he will do the same this time, the other two players from KT (Action and Crazy) did really well in R1 too and Crazy seems highly underrated. herO was a must have for 5 points and he might also play ace. Soulkey might play ace aswell and he is also a good value player. Bravo did kinda well for his price in R1 and in a team like Woongjin he can only improve.
Anti:
Stork is overpriced for 7 so I picked him. Last seems to underperform badly and Reality's record is really bad.

I just can't help myself. No matter how expensive he gets (like he'd ever get cheaper, hah!), I NEED Flash as my captain. I expect him to do very well, as always.
Let's go through the choices:
Acacia - filler. But one from KT so should give some points.
Action - wanted to choose two out of the three KT-players in Action, Stats and Wooki. Eventually I chose Action and Stats, because Wooki had a slightly worse win rate than Stats on the database, and I needed a good zerg so Action was a good choice. Slight deciding factor was also that I dislike name-changers, and P7GAB is a pretty silly name.
Stats - mentioned above in the text about Action. Very solid protoss, and on KT, so a great choice.
herO - Great in round one, decent (or awful?) in round two. Since it's the normal format, which was in round one as well, I predict herO do to great again. Obviously this is a big risk, since he might be awful again, but he was pretty cheap at 5 points and I expect CJ to send him out often, and probably as the main ace as well. I guess Hydra is his rival for the ace spot, but sometimes you just need a protoss ace, so there we go.
Trap - He hasn't done well in either previous round, but I'm still a believer. Ever since his awesome performance in Code A a few seasons ago (that map-awareness!), I'm just waiting for him to break out again.
SKT - wanted to pick KT, but didn't have enough points. SKT was cheap, and I hope they do better this round. Same bullet-proof logic as with picking herO: they did well in round one, and we return to that format, so they WILL do good now again.
Coincidentally, this logic also applies to my FPL picking, as I did well in my first round (rank 99 on my first FPL participation, and rank 2500-something? on round 2) - so rank 1 here we come!
Edit: Forgot to mention my anti-team. free was actually on my main team the last two rounds, and I think he's alright. But after a stellar performance in a couple games (an all-kill, believe?) I think he's become overpriced and decided to pick him for my anti. A big risk, as he might actually be fielded a lot more now, and be performing better.
Wasn't impressed with Ryul2, and Shine just sucks, so easy picks there.
