[Fantasy] PL R5 Final Rankings

Text byHot_Bid

Congratulations, Round 5 winner pripple!

Pripple barely edged out a victory over heygk by two points, mainly due to his smart trading. Pripple made 14 trades for +28 points while heygk only made 4 for +11. This round was the most competitive we've had, with over 1500 entries, so it's a big accomplishment to even finish in the Top 100 this time.

Final Top 10:

(Click to see full standings)



Owner Awards

The "Boxer" Award for best Repeat Performance
Goes to pachi (#26 R4, #9 R5) and BroOd (#7 R4, #35 R5). Finishing in the Top 50 in two consecutive seasons, especially when we have 900+ entries in R4 and 1500+ in R5 is more than just luck.

The "Savior" Award for Best Slump Predictor
Goes to the winner pripple, whose original anti-team of GoRush, Casy, and Shine[kal] was just the beginning. He made five anti-team trades, which only netted him +1 points, but that's half his winning margin over #2 heygk. When you have the best anti-team, you're guaranteed to finish really high.

The "Wall Street" Award for Best Trader
Goes to T.O.P., who made seventeen total trades during the season and saw 13 of them give positive returns for a total of +64 trade gain. T.O.P. finished at #79. If he had not traded, he would have finished in the #800s. His best trade was CJ-for-Hite in Week 2 (+25), which is especially impressive because CJ was on fire at the time.

The "KTF" Award for Worst Trader
Goes to Ideas. How could someone who finished #31 be the worst trader? Well, Galandril had a worse result (-48), but Ideas' trades (-23) cost him far more. Had he not traded, he would have finished first. That's right, he would've won the entire league by 2 points had he just closed his eyes and ignored his team after selecting it in Week 1. The worst trade he made was BackHo-for-Much in Week 4, costing him 14 points.

The "Nal_Rock" Award for Refusing to Change Anything
Goes to blueblimp, who finished at #24 despite making 0 trades all season. Had Ideas only taken your approach!

The "Hite Sparkyz" Award for Biggest Surprise Team
Goes to STX and KTF for going 10-1 and 8-3 and tripling their price value. Picking either of these two teams and sticking with them almost guaranteed you a strong finishing position. Unfortunately, 31 owners gave up on KTF halfway through, trading them for Samsung in Week 2 and taking a minus-16 hit.

The "LeBron" Award for Best Rookie
Obviously, this goes to pripple. Thus far, he's averaging a rank of #1 in all FPL leagues he's played in. Can he duplicate the performance next season, or in the Fantasy PL Playoffs?

The "Manifesto7" Award for Best Staff Performance
Goes to pachi again, who finished #9. Honorable mention to original FPL creator semioldguy, who finished #46.

The "Last Romantic" Award for Worst Staff Performance
Goes to Kennegit, who finished #1117, making zero trades and taking an incredible minus-52 from his Really, Sea, and Hyun anti-team. Sea drank with you and came on TL Attack, and this is how you repay him? You put him on your anti-team? What a betrayal!



Player Awards

Highest Scoring: (T)Flash (47 points)
Most Wins: (T)Flash (11-3)
Most Losses: (Z)hyvaa (2-8)
Best +/- Win Ratio:: (T)Flash (11-3, +8)
Best ACE Winner: (T)Leta (4-1)

Most Underrated (price increase):
(P)GuemChi (+5), (Z)by.hero (+5), (T)Flash (+4)

Most Overrated (price decrease):
(Z)hyvaa (-4), (Z)HoGiL (-4), (Z)OversKy (-4)




Thanks to everyone for participating, and I hope you guys had fun!

Make sure to sign up for Fantasy PL Playoffs, which starts in just a few days!

Congratulations Pripple!
I'm shocked that I improved so much this season compared to last season.
Venture Capital is better off spent on lottery tickets rather than investing in E-Sports; you'll get a far better return. The difference is simple: Koreans are tryharding at the game, foreigners are tryharding in real-life.

Ideas, you can join me in becoming worst traders!

To the hosts: If the Proleague format stays the same for the 09-10 season, will you consider a cumulative Fantasy Proleague spanning all five rounds. This is so that slumps and gains could be traded more.

thanks for all the awards, and thanks again for the whole fantasy -feature, actually thanks to all of teamliquid which is how i got into starcraft not too long ago, used to watch only Gom before that (yes shame on me)!

let's see if i can do any good at the fantasy playoffs, which is a genious idea by the way!
it seems lot harder for me, as i've been utterly failing in liquibet's current season and this somehow reminds me of it. always when i make THE sure pick, biggest upset of the year occurs ;p

Nice write-up, and good to see I made a couple of the better choices there from the most underrated department, chose a good team, made some OK trades but then had a very similar anti-team to Kennigit

Fuck yeah pachi! Nice work.

I tied for second-to-last for people who didn't trade. I feel like that is an accomplishment.

FML. It sounded great on paper, and then Khan decides to lose to two of the worst teams 0-3 and like 1-3 or something. T_T
