I was surprised and did not see this coming. However, after thinking about it I understand why. Congratulations Fantasy, now comes the challenge of keeping it.

Though with the OSL so outrageously delayed, Proleague will begin counting for a lot more so he better keep up the good work with his team.

Fantasy's a good player, but Flash will reclaim his rightful first place for sure.

Flash will come back on top as Protoss and Fantasy's TvP can't do anything about it.

the way the ranking system works as far I know will make flash actually lose a good share of his points unless he wins both leagues again, since he still carries the points from 2 seasons ago.

Quite a lot of players around 2000 points at the moment. That's pretty neat.

Does this affect the seeding for MSL group selection next week?

how is fantasy above flash, jaedong, bisu and stork? he's not one of the four pillars and he's easily the most inconsistent broodwar player at the moment. does winning a single osl have that big an effect? it's gonna be so weird to see KESPA ranking: 1 whenever fantasy plays.

OSL victory is the only reason he jumped past his peers. Stork reached a semi which helped him as well. Flash/JD haven't, and their previous wins have been decaying.

The same goes for Hydra's placement. Up until a few months ago, Hydra wasn't a very important player (relatively). In the December KeSPA rank he placed at #17 with 933.8 points. His MSL run coupled with good SWL performance brought him all the way to #4 in March with 2,245.5. Had he been more solid before his MSL run (and thus had a higher base score) he would be in the exact same boat Fantasy is in right now.

In short, yes, winning a league counts a lot.
