Basically seems to only lose from what i can tell. i can't think of his most recent high finish in a major tourny. The only thing i can think of Kane doing is winning shoutcraft america, which isn't exactly a big deal. On the other hand Bunny is in EU premier league and has been consitently good in the short time he has been around, he's even beaten quite a few koreans and can take maps of most of them. Dayshi was also in EU premier league and he all killed quantic's all korean lineup in the acer teamstory cup. I do agree that suppy needs to be there, he is very strong. Also goswser is really strong, i would probably rank suppy slightly above him but not by much | ||

Grubby is way too low, Suppy got completely snubbed and many other players like Dayshi and Happy are way too high. It seems to me like you put a lot more weight on European success (like for example that you've completely snubbed Shoutcraft America) than anything else when comparing these foreign players but I suppose that might make sense since we haven't had a proper MLG open bracket in a while. I suppose we'll have to wait for that to change. | ||

Probably because you only follow the AM scene or generally isn't aware of the entire scene, since both Bunny and Dayshi was in WCS EU Premier and especially Dayshi has upped his game A LOT in the past couple of weeks. | ||

The problem is: i dont really see them being stronger than the other guys that acutally made the top 30. yes, you could make a point for them being in the 25-30s for sure, just as for strelok (who did good at wcs EU), you cant do them all justice. Also, alligulac has then pretty low. Same goes for TLO and Dimaga - i both ranked them higher than the ranking shows, but alligulac has them on 14 (TLO) and 50-60 (Dimaga) Bunny and Dayshi are tearing it up, especially Dayshi -owns- koreans on a regular basis in the ATC (which is online ofc, but he showed promising stuff offline as well (numerical cup)). thanks for all the feedback, will keep going obviously | ||

He plays better starcraft than he probably ever did. And i stated several times why chinese and taiwanese players are not part of my list: its hard enough to judge each and every performance for "western" players, i cant possibly call how good Jim, Sen or MacSed are compared to the westerners - could you?  Btw: I'm serching for someone with enough time and knowledge about the foreign scene to be able to make his own ranking every month (1-30, ranks 30-40, ranks 40-50). This person would PM me his ranking (also excluding chinese/taiwanese) @TL once i ask for it (within a week or so). This way, i would have another opinion, and do something like 50% = my ranking, 25% = his ranking, 25% = alligulac rakings. Would anyone be interested in that? If so, PM me! #forabetterranking | ||
