Stop thinking that the KeSPA is flawed. You are the one who is flawed. Stop posting more on this subject, please.
I will just repost your idiocy, if you are confused:
1. "Jju is not a top 3 player. He never was. He probably never will be."
2. "This is a blip. Jju and GF won't be there for long."
3. "As far as Ra is concerned, the only reason he's still in the top ten is because he was ranked so high in the last one. Limping his way through an MSL that he got gifted back into by a retiring player is not what I consider top 10 material. His OSL presense has been non-existent. His proleague results have been a joke. He would've dropped 5 places regardless of where he was in the list."
Bad Comeback: "So that resolves all that. I didn't disagree with where kespa put any of them."
You have been against the Kespa results this whole time.... yet you don't disagree with them? Then why even comment on them and how they displease you?
It displeases me to see you make such ripping comments about players who are ranked high just because you do not like them (and are misinformed about them). And it displeases me to see you make such statements against anybody who would DARE talk against your opinion, thinking that they're just some clueless Nal_rA fan. No, that is not the case.
Dude, you gotta read what I'm writing here.
I know who you are. I like your posts.
I express my opinions in a very blunt way because I like being a smartass and I find it makes people react to them, thus starting a fun debate. You, however, are taking it personally and are choosing not to read the words I write, simply because you don't like my tone. Tone does not equal literal meaning.
I am not disappointed in Kespa. It's great. In fact, compared to it's old self it's the best ranking SC has ever seen. I am simply pointing out facts from the ranking that show trends and events in pro SC that I have found very disppointing in the past couple months. Please read that sentence again. You ingored it the last time I wrote it.
We have one toss in the top 10 as far as I'm concerned. Ra could've just as easily dropped 6 spots instead of five. That's my point. It's sad for toss, and is a reflection of the current poor performance of every toss in the world right now, except for Anytime because he's made of magic.
You see what I was posting about now? I like kespa. I hate zerg players. Get it right.
you have always been my least favorite news writer because of your bad bias. it makes you seem misinformed and that is where whatisprotoss is arguing, despite how emotional he tends to get in his arguments. whether or not you do know the progaming scene, you're not really qualified to judge kespa rankings if you have sentiments like "omg i hate jju he is not as cool as reach how is he 3rd despite his great performance lately?!"
jju made two major semifinals (the recent MSL and the OSL before this last one). plus hes about to rape tossgirl and he probably got bonus points for 5 pooling reach in the ace match of samsung vs KTF a while ago. he rocks.
i'm glad manablue got shut down, he really deserved it.

exactly, jju performs extremly well and always manages to qualify for osl/msl. Same for GF, he's always there in osl and last time he even reached the semi-final and lost it against the future champion, wooo what a shame.

Amen! For past 2-3 months I was very distracted by people who hates Jju. Jju deserves his rank, no doubts, and thats why I think KeSPA > DjEtter
What better options are there, Orome? The power rank is fun but you can't call it an "accurate measure of the player's performance" either, so what are we to do but turn to ranking professionals?
Watching the games you get a feel for who's winning more convincingly and losing only close matches (something not included in Kespa) but to have an objective stance you would need to watch all games and not be biased, not just the latter.
The points allocated to each event may be unfair or odd when compared to one another, and Kespa does have its' flaws, but it's still the most objective ranking we've got without actually watching every game played. Right?
I'm not saying anything else is perfect, I'm saying Kespa isn't. It's not that Kespa doesn't take into account how close the games were, it's that the way the points are distributed are inaccurate. Just look at the rankings, it's very obvious they're not too accurate.
I'm curious in the sense that how did SiLvEr rise only two spots with a MSL second place. Like, it's not like they take into account how they get there, other than the players whom he beat. He did take out some big name Tosses and beat the current #3 Kespa, so it seems like he got shafted this month. Not that I like silver or anything, but I was just wondering what happened..
OOv shouldn't get credit for WCG seeing as he just tore through players who were unbelievable shitty compared him. He can't beat people his own size ATM.

My news writing is gold. It's my jokes and emphasis on style of play as well as my insulting of bonehead plays that make the reports interesting.
The day I wipe my opinions from my writing to appease politically correct crybabies like you is the day I quit writing forever.

theres nothing wrong with opinions, but when your opinions make you obnoxious/blatantly wrong it gets old fast.
i have skimmed over most of your posts here however you implied that reach and stork are better/should be rated higher than ra. thats just retarded, and thats just this thread.
