Gudnason 607 Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 So the first six players have just been named - Jakab Holik, Bobby Digital, Pietro Maximoff, Franchise Cornerstone, Fook Yu, and Takashi Fujimoto. As a preliminary objective, Team World will be doing its best to earn a medal this tournament.

BOOM 8,758 Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 Hey PH, I'm fine with playing depth if there's better options for possible team performance. Glad to be named in the squad but happy for others to get the good gigs to help team world perform the best.

Gudnason 607 Posted May 17, 2017 Author Share Posted May 17, 2017 Congratulations to @hedgehog337 @Wasty and @Banackock! Regrets to @Gooningitup @gregreg and @Beketov. Digital was a lock and I was pretty sure I wanted Petenis as well. Took quite a while to decide which two of Barnyashev, Federov, Komarov, Thrower, and Sokolov were the best fit.

Conrad Jenkins should have been ahead of Takashi Fujimoto in any and most cases. Aside from Maximoff, Cornerstone, Digital, and Holikolov being correct choices, I will say I kind of picked Fook Yu and Fujimoto right off the bat without looking at all my choices, because they were both East Asian and I kinda have a long-standing bias towards Fong, and was teammates with Boom the whole year. I still debated a long time on taking Jenkins as the sixth forward, but definitely not at the expense of dropping Fujimoto because I REALLY didn't want to drop anybody that I already named and crush their spirits and potentially ruin future encounters. To be honest I debated dropping Fujimoto and/or Federov quite a bit the last few days. Ended up not taking Jenkins even with two open forward slots as I deemed Rodriguez and Krigars were better fits for the team with the other four forwards already named. It was also tough giving @hedgehog337 two spots in the team when I wanted as much active people as possible, but in the end I did what I had to do... Congrats to Krigars and @evrydayimbyfuglien on the last two forward spots. Regrets to @KitRas @Tyler @Kylrad and myself for missing out on the last forward spot. Honestly it took a LOT of thinking and internal debate and I doubted myself countless times. And I only threw myself in the mix because with about two more weeks of PTs before the WC starts, I could have potentially had at least 36 TPE to work with and mold a decent player that fitted the team style if I did my AB and RP.

BOOM 8,758 Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Drop me.... really. It won't crush me as I'm not very invested in the VHL any more. Not like I have been with previous players. If you have time to amend the roster, please do so. The players on the roster deserve the best players around them and not a player like Fujimoto who won't be above 175 until he goes to Davos next season.

I only chose Krigars before because with Fujimoto still on the roster I planned on one balanced line and one run-and-gun line, which won't happen now.
