EPTPersonally, I feel this power rank would've made a bigger impact had it been after SSL10 or LoveTV S3. Might also reduce the criticism of Bisu not being there and other players making the rank when they shouldn't be there (depends on what someone thinks).

Bisu is not considered because he is no longer competing in sonic or lovetv matches. He will be added if he decides to compete again. | ||

anyway with Snow I don't get the scout hate. It's pretty much been Bisu's trademark afreeca unit for him and it worked well :p | ||

It's pretty much been Bisu's trademark afreeca unit for him and it worked well :p Yeah, but to Bigfan's point, if a Ro32 LSL or SSL doesn't end exactly at the end of a month, I will delay the power rank by a week if I have to if some players still need to play. But I won't delay the time between each power rank by more than 2 months. Yeah, I'm adding more stuff to the power rank than just player x is doing well + vague description. I'm putting some games that people would like to see players in action or epic games of the month type of deal. Plus shedding on player's personality and uniqueness is also another goal  edit: oh and for those saying Killer should be #1, it's possible, the 2 Hwaseung Oz players Killer and HiyA are really close I think. We'll see in November  | ||

Snow and Movie are actually a lot closer than I thought. Check out the Small VODs thread if you want to see Snow vs Mind played this Monday. Snow has better PvT than Movie but Movie has better PvZ I think. Both are definitely I league above Shittle. I think Jaehoon will beat sSak this week and let's see if hero can redeem himself | ||

Now it's true hero 3-0 Ample is some very impressive games. But on the other hand, it's Ample. Honestly, TvZ being sSak's best match-up (aka the match-up he doesn't ssuk at), hero is dying  The #2 Zerg Spot is open to anyone for the taking and Larva vs free is coming on Nov 12th.Snow has been rocking in PvT, very dominant play. Snow/Movie along with Killer for Zerg are leagues above everyone else at this point and expect them 3 to be in top5 for next month. HiyA is for sure above Mind/PianO due to sheer consistency. I'm not convinced sSak is back or not, we'll have to see his TvT and TvP. | ||
