Kespa's secret formula and awkward mix of subjective and objective doesn't really cut it anymore now that we have those two, if you ask me. I feel that it reflects the scene at least somewhat well in the sense that it defines the top players, shows which players are slumping, which are rising, etc. I think the top 3 is accurate, and perhaps the only name up there that isn't as accurate in the top 10 or so would have to be Savior (unfortunately), he has really lost it recently. Overall, I personally can't complain about the kespa. | ||

How many points are given for each win/event, how long it lasts, etc, resulting in the numbers being largely incomparable. Basically it's arbitrary and doesn't have the statistical backing that the elo system does as a numerical system (where the numbers actually mean something), while Power Rank at least admits to subjectivity and doesn't have to worry about using a numerical system that doesn't even take opponent strength into account. | ||

E.g. for the top 20 (older ones didn't have 30): July 2005: 9 October 2006: 59 January 2008: 75 March 2008: 69 (neither the 24 nor the 30 was in the top20) I just picked those randomly. | ||
