-BO5 will return this season. In order to keep the new players playing in Proleague, they got rid of ACE MATCH system, so player who played in any of previous 4 sets cannot play again. So sad. The future of BW looks really dark now. Not only have a lot of B-teamers been forced to quit, but they are also making it harder to play for the existing B-teamers. Like Hiya said, it's just a waste of time to try to become a BW progamer now, and this change just makes his words even more true. I don't know what KESPA is trying to do honestly. Pretty much all progamers prefered BO7. | ||

This is not gonna change for me at least - I'm not gonna start shouting MATCH POINT. No you're completely wrong. Ace match = Ace match, Match point = Match point, but Match point =/= Ace match. You can call still call it what ever you want that's your own prerogative, but you are still wrong. Also don't act like you speak for the whole of the BW community, especially when you're trying to save your own argument.

Except it actually encourages the opposite since it uses a stupid Bo5 format. I hope you enjoy seeing KT only sending out Flash, Stats, and Action because that is all they will ever send out with this current format. This is just going to push even more B teamers and even lesser A teamers over to SC2 as they won't hardly ever get the chance to play. If they keep this format for more than a few seasons you can also expect the teams to cull their numbers by more than half as most of the current players will just be dead weight/glorified practice partners.

Personally, I would much rather maintain the mystery and hype that revolves around such good players. - Have them meeting be a special treat once in a while. Again, with this format change you are going to see the top players clash so often that there will not be any excitement, hype, or "mystery" anymore around the players. | ||

Pretty much all progamers prefered BO7. and most audiences preferred bo5 because they couldnt spend that much time watching a single match edit: wow this thread is filled with a lot of whiners. its been said before, but proleague is a business, and what they were doing last year obviously didnt work out because of lower viewer ratings. with less matches and a smaller format (bo5) they want to trim down the focus and make each match more exciting because there are less games, which will hopefully bring more viewers. besides, we get BW in the end anyway | ||
