While Scarlett and Nani are a bit seperated at the top 2, No. 3 (Grubby) is very closely followed by TLO i think. Snute has done more than Grubby in Hots: He won the Redbull training grounds and ESET UK Tournament, as well as finishing second in Homestory cup, and sixth in WCS America, as the highest placed foreigner. The ranking isn't based on results in August only, it takes older results into consideration as well. Agree that Grubby should be higher ranked, but not over Lucifron and Snute who are better players imo. | ||

You know, your justification for why the players are where they are? I realized I read it mostly for your commentary its a ton of work to justify each and every ranking. i do justify -some- rankings when i completly disagree with critique of a players ranking in the thread. it takes long enough to find a ranking im satisfy with, do the math to comulate it with the aligulac rankings as good as possible and do all the graphics. it probably takes me like 7-8 hours every time, especially when i do completly new graphics as this month (those with black background are easier to change for the upcoming months though). thanks for all the feedback again, will try to put up VOTES for next month again. | ||

Wow, don't waste so much time on it. How about instead of posting a preliminary rating first, then you adjust it as many times as you want while reading the comments of the people? | ||

I probably rank him higher than his results show Kind of funny, to hear this from you, after you kept Major in for so long. Nani still is Nr.1 IMHO, but I guess you can argue for both. Also Hasu is the german number 1, he showed it twice by winning EPS and WCG Germany and having a much better SC2L-record than TLO as well, so either TLO is a bit overrated or Hasu is a bit underrated, probably a mixture of both. Other than that evertything looks fine, one could probably argue bout BlinG, but whatever, it is´nt that big of a deal. | ||

I was very unsure about BlinG either, but you have to respect his qualification for premier league in some way (although there are some premier league players who are not in the list - most of them through aligulac though) | ||

Well, in the same way, TLO does´nt play EPS, HasuObs did´nt attend that much international tournaments. The last events, both of them played, were: Acer Team League Challenge: Hasu 9-8, TLO 3-7 SC2L Hasu 4-2, TLO 2-3, Hasu beats TLO h2h WCS Hasu ro8, TLO ro32 WCG Germany Hasu defeats TLO and wins the event For me this looks pretty one-sided in favor of Hasu. | ||
