Kwanro in 4th place is the worst april joke this year, its not even funny
|
Should be a name for the 4 Zergs in the top 10. That's the only real Zerg players nowadays posting results. Terrans are destroying the rest this season.

Actually the comma goes where the decimal place is, but Kespa doesn't know how to put someone as 2941500 points
|
Yesss, Flash!  )
GO BABY!!! GO FORGG!!! GO JANGBI!!! GO BEST!!! GO STORK!!! GO EFFORT!!! SLUMP MORE BISU!!! Oh, wait
|
Lol, what a noob Flash is, he lost 6 points.
|
|
|
|
|
Flash's stats have no commas because FLASH DOESNT FOLLOW THE RULES OMG
I'm pretty sure breaking 2400 elo is illegal by Korean law, and that bastard did it twice
|
Woo Pretender!
And gtfo please Kwanro.
|
|
|
The fact that Effort is below Kwanro makes me cry.
|
How the heck Kwanro keeps gaining positions is beyond me...
|
and with calm slumping, kwanro is top 3 in no time =). its too beautiful ^^
|
Kwanro being 4th is a joke.
By the end of June the top 5 might be 4 terran 1 zerg if these rates keep up.

2941 is sooo crazy flash going for 3000 this year!

Kwanlol. He's terrible; how is he #4?

looks like the toss is pretty much doomed wtf

Damn, BaBy's shot up a lot.
And holy hell Flash, that's a huge point differential between you and Jaedong...

It's kind of a mystery, but he does get results, and results are all that count in the KeSPA rank.
(Also, the skill curve has been flat lately, with every top player besides Flash being more or less on a level... so if you're just a nose ahead of the pack, you can place really high on the ranking.)

Despite being only good before Hive Tech, its enough for him to get him far in individual leagues. Being cheesy and all in is good enough to get Kwanro tons of nice Kespa points due to its heavy emphasis on individual leagues.

Shine over Bisu
And effort is so high!!
|
And the best protoss around nowadays is... Kal!?
Screw you kespa rankings :[
Well that's unfair on Kal really, he's not horrendous.
Just shows how there is currently a huge lack of high level toss players.
(maybe) Since I wouldn't trust this rating system anyway.
I like Kal a lot though, just doesn't seem right for him to be the top toss.
|
Ya Kwanro WOO.
And fOrGG WOO.
Movie/Stork
|
Those four zergs are really something. And Flash too, of course.
|
My boy Kal holding down the fort for the protoss.

I like how Flash goes DOWN 6 points for going 10-1. I know you're supposed to get extra points for "ace" wins, but does the final game of a WL match count as an ace win? Because Flash has four of those (STX, MBC, Woongjin and Wemade). If so then I don't see how Flash can gain points outside of winning an individual league next month, which he can't. =\
I guess he could've allkilled Hite but that's asking a little much.

Nothing really out of the ordinary, although I expected ForGG to jump up a bit I'm surprised he did so as much Baby.

Yea okay so he beat scrubs and yet really only lost to Flash twice, Light once, and FBH once (who always has respectable TvZ). The only actual scrub kwanro lost to is action.
So let's give credit where credit is due yea? I realize this forum hates Kwanro for whatever reason but yea, he doesn't suck as much as you imply with your lopsided argument.

Maybe in last year's March, Flash got even more points.
|
It's more a combination of all of his points from december to last March going down 10% than just last March.
Maybe it's because he just started losing points for his OSL victory and MSL 2nd place. Either way when you go 10-1 beating the toughest competition this side of Jaedong and lose points, that's a mean sign.
|
Other than Flash at #1, these rankings do not reflect reality in any way.
ELO makes sense.
|
Elo puts Jaedong at #2 as well, so it's similar, atleast.

Kwanro -_. top 4 and soon he will pass slumping Clam... what the fuck
Stork go back into top 10 !

11. Stork 1,410.0 -2 ???
i didnt watch sc1 since sc2 beta, but whats stork doing that he is only on 11?
flash rocking like always NICE!
|
flash got +500 because of title win, those extra points get reduced to 0 over 6 months, so basically he lost 50-100 points because he didnt win a title, and gainst 40-90 because of pwning shit out of nubs. thats why he lost 10 pts
|
ELO rank is not perfect either... Player like july is so high ELO ranking but KeSPA ranking is like 50 rank difference.

Kespa ranking pretty heavily leans on past performance, it takes several months of consistency at least before these things will change. For instance, Flash was the best player from October onward but it was not until March that he took first (mostly due to JD's massive lead).
|
ELO to me is the worst ranking possible.
It does not penalize "not playing", therefore players will deem not playing as benefitial when reaching a certain point.
They should add to the equation, every day not playing = -100 ELO points, that way it will be more fair and accurate for newer players
Kespa leans with fairly recent performance compared to ELO. if you dont play much recently, you WILL drop in kespa ranking, but not in ELO.

I doubt Korean pros care what their ELO ranking is on TeamLiquid.net. They certainly wouldn't stop playing games to preserve a high ranking.

How do you get points if every day you do not play you lose more points than you can win when you do play? You have no idea how Elo works.

Kwanro keeps getting deep in starleagues. He might be terrible and I hate him but his style of play tends to beat most people in the early rounds of starleagues. Seriously you would think people would figure him out by now.

They aren't. I think what he meant was that if those players whose named are crossed out get banned from professional play because of the recent scandal involving gambling and throwing games, then that will be the list of the top 30 gamers. Based on rumors about who was involved in the cheating.
|
If even half of those players were really involved then I foresee a very dark future for esports...
But I honestly cannot imagine that this is true.

Well, first of all, what they are involved with is "illegal gambling." Whether or not they threw games to make money is a different and more touchy matter.
If they bet on themselves or were involved with side betting on players other than themselves, then my understanding is that they were still breaking the law, but on the level of whether I personally think that doing such a thing is right or wrong I have nothing against it. Certainly if you bet money on yourself then you must be confident.
However throwing games to guarantee you turn a profit is something else. Words like despicable and dastardly come to mind.
It's easily possible that most of those gamers might have been involved in side betting. I'd like to think that they weren't throwing games. For certain particular players it definitely seems like they probably did throw games.
