Seriously, why isn't this on the front page already, spotlighted or otherwise? It's the only bit of ASL hype we have and the tournament starts in 7 hours.

Edit: Also, are any staff members going to post tournament threads for group play? Last year we had threads that looked like this, rather than the plaintext crap I can come up with.

I was having issues with the horribly outdated interface and gave up in frustration. BigFan or another admin will take care of it soon, hopefully.

This. I was expecting to see ASL shit all over the frontpage. But nothing.

This power rank put a tear in my eye though. Amazing :´)

Sad, but understandable that my boy sKyHigh didn't make the power rankings. One matchup wonders are hurting from such a wide pool of opponents.

It's not that he's a one-trick pony, he didn't make the rankings because he's not in ASL4 ^_^

Thanks for the power ranking! Really hard to place these guys imo but it looks reasonable enough i think. It's tough without a regular league goig on (proleague), i guess spon matches could be a big deciding factor?

One thing i personally would appreciate are some indicators which show us the direction of each player since last PR. So basically arrow up/down and how many places he changed. That would be sweet

I really hope Larva can show his A game this ASL, also cheering for JD (obviously) and Rain.
What's this about: "well, maybe if he stopped spending time doing other less moral things on stream...." Watching girl streamers?


Wow, what's up with Rain? He seems like such a straight and serious guy, just like his play-style. Hope he hasn't walked down the dark path of streaming...

Not a bad PR. I think sSak, Shine, Mini and Hiya could be higher. sSak has shown that he can be stupid good when you least expect it. His current ranking doesn't factor that in that much imo. Shine made the finals yet he's that low. Sure, he's not as good mechanically as others but he's also shown to be creative and smart. Mini is mini lol and as for Hiya, old bias here but he should be much higher. He's been around since the Sonic days so even though he may not stream as much recently, I'm sure his form can be comparable to other "stronger" players.

I'm sure you can find out yourself if you see his stream

We believe Rain is still on the right path and can potentially deliver a deep run in the ASL...well, maybe if he stopped spending time doing other less moral things on stream....

Anyone who says some players deserve to be higher should list an equal number of players that deserve to be be lower. Not like that guy who listed 5 players that should be higher and only 1 player who should be lower. Anything else is just intellectually dishonest.

It's just like ahead of every World Cup in soccer where at least 10 teams say they "deserve" to reach the semis, which only 4 teams can reach. Reaching the quarter-finals is seen as a complete failure even though that means you are one of the top 8 teams in the world. National coaches get fired all the time over such basic lack of math.

People should stop being so entitled, especially on behalf of others.
Tyrant.

Is Jae Zedong for real, or does he not understand the concept of arguing about power ranks for fun?

I'm just wondering if he's always a jerk.
