Fantasy Proleague
Shinhan 08/09 - Round 3

SIGNUPS ARE NOW CLOSED. GOOD LUCK!

>>> Click here to check who is on your team <<<

NOTE: Round 3 is All-Kill Format, so there is a new scoring system.

Due to intrigue's massive lead, most of the 208-team field is already looking toward Round 3, which begins next week. Player and team prices will be adjusted based on Round 2 results, and everyone will have a fresh start in points and team members. Thus, you are not at a disadvantage if you did not play in Round 2. Everything resets for Round 3. For those that missed out on Fantasy PL last season, this is your chance!

Fantasy Proleague is a great experience that will make you appreciate and enjoy Proleague more, give you something to talk about with other Fantasy PL participants, and help you better familiarize yourself with the Proleague scene. For me personally, Proleague went from the bottom of my "care about" list straight to the top. I was looking forward to lineups being released, every ace match selection, player win streaks, etc. It really made Proleague much more exciting.

This contest will last for the duration of the next seven weeks of Proleague (starting on January 17th), which is the third of five rounds in the Shinhan 08-09 Proleague Season. Round 3 will be played in All-Kill format, which means that the teams send out one player, and the winner stays until one team has four wins. Thus, each match is Bo7 and each winning team could end up sending only one player (if that one player 4-0's the other team). Each losing team will end up sending four players (as they must cumulatively lose four times).

Contest Rules:

1. Each team will consist of six different players and one proteam.
2. Each team must include at least one player from each race. (Terran, Zerg & Protoss)
3. You must designate one of the players on your team to be the Team Captain (can't be traded and will determine tiebreakers).
4. You can spend no more than 30 points creating your team. (explained below)
5. Registration will be automated thanks to Sonuvbob. Check back for the link on 02:00 Jan 13 2009.
6. Each person only gets one entry.
7. Failure to correctly follow these rules may result in disqualification from the contest.

Team Creation:

Below is a list of all players who are eligible for Fantasy Proleague Round 3. Each listed player has a point value. You must spend that many points to place that player on your team. You may not exceed 30 points or your team will be disqualified. If you spend less than 30 points and are tied with another team in score, you will have the tiebreaker. However, I strongly advise you to use all 30 points, as even one point is much more valuable in purchasing players or teams than as a tiebreaker.

Point values are based upon their performance in the previous Proleague round based on the same scoring system that will be used for this contest. Zero point players are handled differently this Round. Since team wins are worth points for players on that team, almost all players (non-Airforce players at least) are worth at least 1 point. Players from Lecaf and Samsung, even if they don't appear, are worth 2 points because of the number of wins those teams get.

Player and team prices are included in the sign up form (link at top of post). To give you more time to register, the January 14th match between Lecaf and Woongjin will not count toward the player score. We have instead projected out the score of the players on these two teams so there is no unfairness, but the score deviation is so small it probably won't matter anyway.

Trading:

During the few days with no Proleague matches between each week there will be a "Trading Period." I will offer one or more available trades as a Trade of the Week. The trades offered will appear a such:

JangBi <<< >>> (P)

Stork

If you have one of either player and you want to make the trade you may PM me at anytime during the Trading Period and I will switch out the player you have for the one you don't. The trading feature does not allow you to have multiples of the same player. Trading may allow you to exceed the 30 point limit, that is okay. However, you may not make a trade if it would result in you not having a player of each race. You may not trade your Team Captain.

During the week you may PM me trade suggestions/proposals. I will review all proposed trades and may choose from them when posting the Trade of the Week. For the trade to be considered it must appear as a fair and interesting trade.

All-Kill Player Scoring:

Players:
Lineup appearance: 1 Point*
Game Win: 2 Points
Game Loss: -1 Point
2-Game Streak Break: 1 Point**
3-Game Streak Break: 2 Points**
Team Win: 1 Point***
DQ/Forfeit: -2 Point

*Only counts once, i.e. if Flash goes 4-0, he still only gets 1 appearance point
**Streaks do not carry over between matches, all streaks must occur in the same match
***This counts for all players on the team's roster, they don't have to have played in the match

Proteams:
4-0 Victory: 5 Points
4-1 Victory: 4 Points
4-2 Victory: 3 Points
4-3 Victory: 2 Points
3-4 Defeat: 1 Point
2-4 Defeat: 0 Points
1-4 Defeat: -1 Points
0-4 Defeat: -2 Points
Best Record for Round 3: 4 Points

Round 3 will be significantly more difficult than Round 2, now that everyone is more familiar with the players, the prices are more accurate, and there will be many more entrants. However, the newness of the All-Kill format will give you guys plenty of opportunities to differentiate your teams.

Remember, these prices are tentative and will be updated just prior to Round 3 Registration going live.

Cheers, and good luck!

I've already spotted a couple of steals(if they prices don't vary too much). My team is already forming in my mind. Although, I gotta be honest, this looks harder. Far less steals available. Anyways, GJ!

goddamnit
the new format makes it even harder to go out and pick cheaper players

this means there wont be as many superb cheap picks like leta or skyhigh last season if the good players just keep dominating like if flash just all kills everyone he plays against if thats possible

It won't be easy. Yes, every team will have at least one, possibly even two really strong players, but there are a lot of options to pick from.

Does anyone knows if the map pool stays the same? It affected my FP team a lot.

I'm thinking it will be all about snipers and team aces. R3 format just changed shopping priorities. Damn, it looks this round is going to be less versatile in team member diversity.
