Pool Legends and Pool Fiction

Well, PFN's reign of dominance as far as I can see is finally over for the time being, but, and thanks to Jammy, I've come to notice some scary similarities between the 2...

#1: Unknown League coming in - OK, so you knew a good amount of the players from Pool Masters, but how many of you were familiar with the league itself?

#2: Primarily members of another League first - Well, most of PoolFiction came from ChampionsPool, now most of Pool Legends came from Pool Masters.

#3: Had great unknown talent - Someone like poolstud, OK he's no Luis but he's a good shooter, i_am_a_sore_loser, etc., the people you don't know about who can still pick up big wins.

#4: A real League - How many guys in PL get their 20 games then stop playing? If some people in MLP tried to go to PL for Season 6, I can almost guarantee they'd be told to stfu and cram a toy somewhere nasty. Why? Because the League believes in loyalty, and they believe in being a LEAGUE, not a group. And uh...So far, I dunno, it looks like it has worked.

#5: Finally, made World Series on the first try - Just as PoolFiction did in Season 2, Pool Legends come through and Cinderella their way through the Playoffs, and you know what? I hope they win it. Will they? Probably not. But I want them to win it because I want Lucky to tell me about all the league-whores who ask him to be on the team XD

So while it's the end of PFN's era...Is it Pool Legends' time? I guess we'll just have to see how the Legend is told.
