Great idea with the polls.
Maybe we can get a ranking out of polls if more ppl participate.


Highly overrated imho (more than 5 places):
Grubby; Dimaga, Happy
overrated: Vortix, Sortof, Slivko

Highly underrated imho:
frear, Huk, Hasuobs

underrated: Titan, major

NASL and MvP have about the same meaning as any online tournament - MvP even less.

Kas +5 cuz u can read the thread.
1) its +4
2) he has the most consistent results of all rank 5-10 players lately. ever chekced tlpd?

Snute is a monster currently. NightEnD was concidered to be too low by almost everyone. he recently fell out of a tournament in the group stage, which was AFTER the ranking was posted.
HuK dropped out because he doesnt do shit besides NASL - and his score doesnt tell the whole story there.
Apparently, i would rank IdrA in and leave HuK still out after MLG (my whole ranking would look stlightly different now (see spoiler / unofficial :D ).

Kas actually doesnt have any games listed on TLPD for October. So how does that explain why you raised him 4 spots during that exact month?
Some results I found for October:
EG MCSL: 0-2 Taeja, 2-0 puck, 0-2 Golden, 1-2 Bling
Pokerstrategy League: 3-7 Grubby, 7-3 Morrow
Asus ROG: 2-1 Mana, 2-1 elfi, 0-2 TLO, 2-1 Nightend, 1-3 Thorzain
Stim to the win: 3-1 Titan, 3-1 Hasuobs
Ritmix: 0-3 Titan, 2-0 Symbol, 0-2 Bomber

Its decent, but not too consistent with losses against Bling, Grubby and TLO. Doesnt reward +4 IMO.

HuK dropped out because he doesnt do shit besides NASL - and his score doesnt tell the whole story there.

You really would rank Idra back on 21 just because of MLG?
Idras match score there was 3-3. He beat Apocalypse, Glon and Grubby, while losing to TheSTC, Babyknight and Soulkey.
Huk was 3-2 (pool allows 1 more loss). He beat Shew, Sasquatch and Vibe, losing to Daisy and moonglade.
(not saying Huks run was better, Idra had stronger opponents)

Lets compare other results: MLGMvP Huk managed to get into the playoffs while Idra began forfeiting matches after a very bad start.

IPTL: Huk beat Genius and Arthur, lost to Miso and DRG. No start for Idra.
EG MCSL: Idra 1-2 Vibe, 2-0 Hawk, 0-2 Goswser, 0-2 Arthur, 0-2 Hasuobs
Huk 2-0 Genius, 0-2 Protosser

Other individual results: (not much for Idra?)
GSL WC: Huk 2-0 Vibe
NASL: Huk 2-0 Ret, 2-1 Morrow, 2-1 Arthur, 1-2 Hasuobs, 2-1 alive, 0-2 Polt, 2-0 Masa
IPL 5 Satellite: Huk 2-0 Cyrano, 2-0 Ryung, 2-0 Shine
IEM Singapore qualifier: Idra 3-2 Boyo, 3-0 Demuslim.

Please tell if I missed anything important in the last 2 months.

Huk is overall 13-5 in Bo3+. 44% of matches were vs Koreans.
Idra is overall 6-7 in Bo3+. 23% of matches were vs Koreans.

Huk has the much better winrate playing better opponents.

Huk has the much better winrate playing better opponents.



but HuKs good results were mostly online.
IdrA's play simply looks much more stable and stronger than HuK's
Also, the listing from Kas' results is incomplete - 9-1 vs TiTaN for example.
Again: his late results arent rly that impressive, i agree on that. BUT... the results of the others are even worse! just recently, he 8-2d socke again, who seems on a bit of an upswing again compared to the month before (winning against grubby).

but ye, thanks for listing HuKs results so closely, i wasnt aware of every single one since i dont have as much time to follow the NA leagues as before (dont get me wrong, i watched EVERYTHING before :D i still see quite a lot^^).

Kas 9-1 vs TitaN was already September. I looked for all of his results in October.
He passed Lucifron, Thorzain, Naniwa and Sase in October. If you say they have really done worse, I don't agree. (Lucifron did so-so like Kas, Thorzain won TheGD Invitational - beating Kas too, Nani and Sase see my first post)

On Idra I don't think at all that his play looks stable.

My Top15: (as of now)
1. Stephano
2. Nerchio
3. Mana
4. Naniwa
5. vortix
6. Sase
7. Lucifron
8. Kas
9. Thorzain
10. TitaN
11. Scarlett
12. fraer
13. Grubby
14. Bly
15. Happy
(made me realize I didnt mention yet how heavily underrated fraer is)

I wasn't joking. I don't think he is better than e.g. mana. That's just my subjective opinion.
Not saying he doesn't deserve to be at the top but to say he is smashing everyone right now is just exaggerated.

Dimaga hasn't played well for a loong time, and so has ret. (Especially the latter one makes me pretty sad.)
I think, they're both too high on this list. The top 3 seem to be ok, even though there's no clear favourite for the third place.
first we make expand, then we defense it.
