Now 6... no disrespect to Jaedong, one of my favorite players, but winning vs Soulkey and losing vs Leta (and winning over a bunch of scrubs) in the past 2 months does not, a number 6 ranking make. In the normal course of things, maybe. If T8 still had a playoff chance and were playing serious opponents, sure. But in the context of things, it was simply too little too late. Jaedong mostly carried T8 this season but he's been extremely mediocre vs really good players, especially Terran. I mean, in his game vs Leta... (at around 9:05 of the VOD), 6 Hydras and 2 lings + Overlord get owned by 3 vultures, one nearly dead at that... I'm not sure that's an impressive show of skill. Not even on Leta's part. JD just walking into those mines like he was ggaemo. He wasn't even expanding behind that or anything. And then the mutas vs goliaths.


Are you sure you are not placing a bit too much emphasis on that Leta game? yeah that move was not a great show of skill. On the other hand, the first spider mine took 4 hydra hits before it exploded (high ground ftw..).

He is still 6-1 in this past 2 months, including a lot of cool games, the spore block against modesty was nothing short of amazing, the game against SK was an awesome comeback. Also, in every single ZvZ he had to fight back from a BO disadvantage (hell, I can't even remember when he had a BO win the last time). Saying all his opponents were just "scrubs" seems a bit unfair.

Also I don't think I want to live in a world where a 6-1 record doesn't even qualify you for top 6 in PR

I do wanna live in that world, seems like a world of plenty of Brood War to go around ^_^

But that is not this one, in this world a 6-1 record + being Jaedong should be enough to earn him the 6th spot, imho.
Look. Only Forward. See. Only Victory.

So many upsets in the offline prelims. I don't know where to start.
Even though this Proleague bullshit has been completely bogus, I really, really, really do not see how Khan can lose this. I swear I will kill myself if they do. - nesix before KHAN lost to eNature

Um, a strong showing in the prelims + PL finals could have given him a spot.

Now Bisu must beat Flash twice in the finals to earn a spot And what about Best, Leta and Stats?
there is no such thing as luck in the long run but run is never long enough

Leta may drop below Soulkey if Soulkey advances. Then again, Soulkey has an easy group, so maybe not. Stats was originally a candidate for a #10 spot, but now I think he needs to prove himself strongly against SKT before he has a chance. Best also needs to prove himself against KT, but not as strongly as Bisu or Best need to prove themselves.

On the flip side, Action now looks like a more solid candidate.

If Bisu doesn't whip out some really good stuff vs KT (such as beating Flash, good and clean), he can GTFO of the PR as far as I'm concerned. But he's still ELO #2 I guess, which counts for something.
