VS EG-TL Proleague games where if I'm not mistaken, set players are paired up against set players. That way it's much more rare to get an "all-kill" because the match format makes that much more unlikely. So if you lose, you step out, and the next players jump into the booth.
Just wondering really, if it's the format more than anything else, that's hurting NSH. If they played under the Proleague format, would things be different?
I love the all-kill format it really gives individuals a chance to shine when they take down multiple opponents.
And the coaches and team really have to think on their feet on who to send out next. Proleague's style is boring, everything is predetermined, it's like watching Code A.

You can tell always tell a DRG fan by his love for the all-kill format

No, to be completely honest, NSH would get wrecked regardless of the format. They don't have any depth, and even Jjakji, who is their star player, hasn't been playing so well. He 3-killed MVP in the Preseason, and got a 2-kill against Prime, but he's lost all his other games, which has resulted in NSH's numerous all kills.
Madbull is an interesting player, and maybe he has potential, but his game against Keen was really shaky.

wtf, strongly disagree. When you have teams composed of incredibly strong players, trad proleague format is wicked bc you know the players practiced to the nth degree for their specific match.

Yea but it encourages cheesing and gives shittier games.

Prleague format is way better than all-kill format. It rewards the deeper team rather than the one with a player who happens to go on a hot streak that day. It also lets you see way more players in a bo7 all-kill match you will see 5-7 different players. In a bo7 proleague match you see 8-14 different players.
It wouldn't help NSHS at all though. They don't even have 6 good players to field so they would have several guaranteed losses.

How's this for a team league format? Winner stays, but each player can only get a maximum of two kills before he must be switched out. Whenever both teams have to switch players, they're revealed at the same time like a Proleague ace game. It would limit but not disregard the effect of ace-level players. I just thought of it so I don't know if it's any good, haha.

That would be definitely a good compromise IMO and I agree.
