Some big names drop to K League today
|
Late Proleague today, due to the KCM finals (you should check it out as well, some excellent games)
|

A bit late but let's look back at the Proleague record for March:
PROLEAGUE RECORD, MAR 2023
Due to ASL activities and the Starcraft Academy stuff, the personnel for Proleagues was mixed up a lot of the times this month. There were a fair amount of 5v5 and also players from Major and K League exchanged places a lot, so looking at the raw number of wins/loses doesn't always tell the whole story.
That said, nothing can be taken away from the performance of Snow, Light and Mini (and the three of them mostly played Major Proleague anyway).
Light, with a whooping 70% win rate, has maintained his place in the top 3 of the Proleague table for 3 consecutive months. Strong and consistent. He is truely the closest thing to Flash in the modern era.
Guess who was better than Light in March? Snow with an insane win rate of 76%. One might think that he must have been farming Terrans a lot. Certainly his 9-4 record against Terran does help. But most people, including me, would be surprised to know that he was 11-0 against Zerg in March. Yes, 100% record vs Zerg. Now looking at this, his all-kill vs Zerg in the KCM finals does make sense.
But if we are talking about all-kill, no one could surpass Mini who maintained his form since February with a 67% win rate. The guy had 4 all-kills in March, which partly explains why he played 79 Proleague games this month (because he didn't let anyone play). If you are in the same team with Mini, there is always a chance you can collect the money without ever winning a game yourself.
The sad thing is, all 3 of them were out of ASL. I guess cup format can be harsh sometimes.
If we remove Sharp (at 61%, but mostly still farming in K-League), then next in the table is Soulkey who finally decided to play more Brood War to get himself in shape for ASL. And he did get in shape pretty quickly at 56%. He is undoubtedly the favorite to win this ASL with all the other big names out already.
The rest of the table are players who are pretty solid, hovering around 50% (meaning: they all beat each other on a given day). Most notably, current (now former) ASL champion Royal has been sitting at exactly 50% for two months after an impressive January. Still solid but there was a time where we thought he would have taken the No.1 Terran position from Light. Turns out, maintaining dominance in BW is that difficult. You can play like Flash for a while, but you can't be Flash.
At the bottom of the table are Queen, Bisu and Rush who are just about at 40%. but I guess it's more like a circumstance thing. They will bounce back.

Sharp and Effort out of their comfort zone today

Not being able to find the 8th player, these guys proceeded with a 4v3 Proleague:
