Welcome to the monthly Top 16 Western Foreigner Ranking (excluding china, taiwan).
As always, i won't comment on my personal rankings ("Me"), it's opinion based.
Please read, comment, vote and spread the word!



___________________________________________



The math:

aligulac gives every player points for his wins or losses and ranks them. It is widely known and accepted to be of value.
1/3 of the ranking is based on it.

WCS points are given away at every important tournament. To many people, they are what matters in the end.
1/3 of the ranking is based on it.

My subjective ranking is still a factor.
1/3 of the ranking is based on it.

The maximum reachable points is 3000 for first place in all 3 rankings [of all the available competitors] (1000+1000+1000). rank 10 in all 3 rankings would give you 2100 points (700+700+700). The lower the ranks get, the smaller the point differences between them become.

Outside of the top 3, it feels like almost everyone is ranked too highly, but then you realize that they're the best we got. It would make more sense if we included chinese and taiwanese I think.

Something's wrong with the points system. Snute is 3rd, 1st, 1st and 1st is 1000 points so 3rd must be 920. Scarlett has a 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 1920 points are accounted for with the 1st and 3rd so 2nd must be the remaining 960 points.

However, if this is true, Bunny should have 2840 points not 2800?

Templar really showing off that university education right now. But seriously, you're correct. OP might want to do some recalculations.

Looks like Dayshi should be 20 points lower too. Also might want to double-check TargA

I'm suprised that Ourk at #6 wasn't enough to get him on in the top 16

One #6 by itself is 840 points. More importantly, he has no WCS points (hence no points from this category), and presumably the OP did not put him even in the top 50 in his personal ranking, so that can't be much either.

Pretty solid ranking. For the most part I agree, I just think Chinese/Taiwanese players should be included

Sen/Jim not being on this list is strange.

Otherwise pretty good list. Fairly accurate.
I used to play random, but for you I play very specifically.

Overall agree with the rankings. And must it be repeated each time that the guy who posts this excludes non-Western foreigners from the rankings because he doesn't know enough about their scene, and couldn't give an accurate estimate?

Please include chinese and taiwaneese players, it will be much more interesting althought much harder to rank. For me Huk is too low, also I would switch TLO and Mana, which I dont understand. Otherwise its pretty much ok.

I feel like Bunny would wreck Scarlett 9 out of 10 times.

With her recent struggles against Terran I'm inclined to agree. Maybe not 9/10 times but he would win a series if they ever played one.
