The KeSPA rankings for February were just released.
Bisu is now #1, with Flash and Stork right behind him in terms of points. The biggest riser is UpMagiC, who went all the way from 38rd to 25th. The biggest faller is firebathero, who went from 12th to 16th.
BoxeR went down a few spots this month. sAviOr is 35th in the rankings. Leta is ranked #1 in Proleague and #23 in individual leagues, so if he advances far into both leagues, he'll be #1 overall for sure. IdrA went up 2 spots to 236th. ToSsGirL is holding tough at 206th. iloveoov went up 51 spots to 102nd by.hero went up 51 spots as well... to 46th.
you can tell everyone was doing terrible last month by seeing how low the ELO point is lol
grats to Bisu I guess, and yay flash, you're still hanging at 2nd

GOM should seriously consider doing another top 16 kespa tournament.
I've never even heard of this guy until the all-kill he performed a few days ago..
Well he did beat FBH in the final set of the 2007 Shinhan Proleague grand finals, and he's been a pretty solid proleague performer. Just never been much of a big name somehow.
It's too bad Flash hasn't had many chances to play lately, I hope he hasn't suddenly forgotten how to win during this little interval.

We know how ELO ranks work, we have no f'in clue how Kespa's ranking works. It seems to coincide with the orbits of planets relative to major constellations, but no one can be sure.
After what I've seen in today matches and performances, I wouldn't be surprised to see Savior within the top 30 or even top 20 by next month.... GO SAVIOR!!!!!!!!!!! MJY FIGHTING!!!!!!!!!!!! 2009!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's funny though, Top 10 is dominated by protosses and then there're only three in the whole of 11-30. Seems like there're few absolutely insane Toss-players and the rest are kinda mehhy. Also, where's the Swarm? The numbers seem to favor average Terrans at the moment (who get beat up by the top Tosses).

I always thought that 6 protoss in top10 are 6 dragons. Free is 11th now. So, why he is still dragon?

I love the fact that it's so close at the top. Hopefully it will stimulate fiercer competition and motivate those below the top 3. It's also nice to see Leta making an 8 place jump - rightfully so given his solid recent performances. Congratulations to UpMagic too - it was fun seeing him finish off Oz by breaking his 5-0 losing streak against Jaedong.

I think Free is more deservingly a dragon than Kal.

I believe the term "6 Dragons" stems from the last OSL where the round of 8 was comprised of 6 Protoss, who were named the 6 Dragons by the OSL commentators.
As far as I know, KeSPA ranking has nothing to do with it.

Taking a look at this again the number of zergs and protoss in the top thirty is quite few.
8 zerg, 8 protoss, and 14 terrans. The protoss do have the top 11 locked up though.
It is also interesting to note what a pair the Park twins are, when they do well they both do well. Not only are they close in position for this month's rank, they also went up by close to the same number of spots.
