We're nearing the end of the year, in terms of games we've had a great year, many results and great stories, sad retirements, and failures, however this will all start a new come 2014.
Despite the poor production on the english stream, proleague was still entertaining to watch, I look forward to watching many great and weird games, but until then I present to you my Proleague Power rank.
1.SK Telecom T1 My SKT bro's will be happy with this choice, but I do feel a strong presence in the force, with recent acquisition of Soulkey, SKT1 has infintely bolstered their lineup to a place where they may be untouchable for some this season, the forcefield god PartinG, the orgasmic toss: Rain+ Show Spoiler +, soOjwa, macro terran fantasy, afro toss paralyze, and some others guys.. oh yeah that soulkey guy he's pretty good.
2.Jin Air Green Wings With the additions of Marine King Prime Jr.(or senior depends on how you look at it ) and, the trickster toss sOs, Jin Air looks to have a strong lineup for this season, if they can do well I see a bright future for their team.
3.KT Rolster I feel it's hard to accurately rank KT Rolster's players at the moment, due to the little amount we've seen from them, except from Flash but let's be real here + Show Spoiler + Anyway the toss's on KT interest me and I expect to see good games out of them, I do think KT will be over Jin Air in rankings at the end of the season however as of now with the little amount we've seen from them as i said it's hard to rate them above jin air.
4.IM After losing their main sponsor LG for which they couldn't make new shirts without the LG patch for unknown reasons, in current form IM is a protoss/Zerg heavy lineup with their 1 terran champion:+ Show Spoiler +
5.CJ Entus Cheering for CJ Entus is quite easy these recent months, since their acquisition of Coach Park, the man has changed the team for the better(or so it makes sense at least), coming from EG-TL and the formerly eg korea house+ Show Spoiler +http://store.cdn.gamesports.net/6000/6334.gif i'm sure he picked up on a few tips on how to market his players and team better, with the showmatches that have been happening and with how cool hero is + Show Spoiler +, anyway in terms of actual skill on the team they have hero as mentioned who looks to be in form from his recent IEM Singapore run, effort,Hydra the patch zergi hope people get this joke, Bbyong and the new protoss hero Sora they look to have a decently solid team for this season of PL.
6.MVP MVP is a team with players who pop once in a while then go back their rabbit hole for whatever reason, Tails, Dream, DRG, Keen, Swagger, Super and to lesser extent Bang and Billowy, they just cannot seem to stay on the up and up, Proleague could be that chance, DRG could lead them to victory once again like he did in GSTL those many many many years ago....
7.Samsung Galaxy Ah the team with RorO who some predicted to be the next zerg bonjwa that wasn't meant to be. Then theirs Stork and Shine, well I don't know much about this Stork guy but I hear Shine likes cheese...
8.Prime This may or may not hurt your pride as a Prime fan but their currently the WEAKEST team in Proleague, you could say the same for GSTL as well. They still have 2 anchors for their team though: Creator and ByuN, both will need to get back on form if they want to have any chance along with that they will need to recruit some new strong players or hope their current "un-proven" players can prove their skills, Prime will have to hope that's enough for them to not take eighth spot at the end of the season.
If you're a StarTale fan you may find some solace in this fact
Writer's Note
+ Show Spoiler +Thank you for reading, any jokes,jabs, puns or whatever else made should be taken light-heartedly, I am in no way intending to be an asshole, or jerk, bah no wonder the real journalists write this stuff, must be hard apologizing to the readers after every article, even wax doesn't write much like this anymore. simply put writing this made me feel really dirty oh and I forgot my 10k blog should be coming eventually hopefully it doesn't turn into a 20k blog

Wow. The grammar nazi in me will not allow this to pass. I really hope you'll proof read your blog next time and distinguish the differences between there, their, and they're...

5/5 for snarkiness, 2/5 for effort

Wow, I feel like I should five star you just for being so generous as to place KT third. I'm hopeful that we'll see a revival this season, but realistically I think it's gonna be hard for KT to make the playoffs unless Stats, Action etc have done a LOT to improve over the last six months.
Also, CJ should be higher imo, at least based on the form we saw from their players at IEM Singapore.

You need another period in that ellipse to close out the sentence. "Distinguish the differences between" is repetitive.
:D
I wonder if Prime'll disband now.

I doubt Prime will disband immediately having already confirmed Proleague participation. It'll probably be a question at the end of the season.

It's like when your opponent has twice your supply and triple the number of bases as you, but you keep on fighting on despite having no mineral income, and microing that marauder-medivac combo hoping to snipe one of your opponent's 10 hatcheries, thankful that the ultralisks, lings and banelings can't attack air...
That's Prime right now.

How to make a proleague preseason power ranking:
- Put SKT at #1. - Put Prime at #8. - Put Jin Air at a random spot between 2 and 4. - Put Samsung at a random spot between 5 and 7. - Put the other teams in random spots.
