Well also because c9 has beaten Alliance several times in the last few matches they have played against them

Creativity =/= unpredictability, not that Cloud 9 is missing that either.

Personally, EU/NA for a while would be:
    1) Na`Vi
    2) Empire
    3) EG
    4) C9
    5) Fnatic

[A] is pretty bad right now.
Whether it has ended with a happy ending or sad, I never was an important thing to you.

The writers' ranks are taken into account, but in the end the editors have a say too. So it's not just the average of the votes, no!

even reading the EG explanation, i have no idea how you could put them as 3rd. They simply don't have the games against top teams to be considered. 5th at best.

ps guy quoted above me says it great.



5th at best? really? they haven't lost to Empire since Feb, in like, 5 or 6 games already, Fnatic lost to them recently, don't even get me started on VP, Dog, C9 and company and the NA scene. . the only downside to this was actually having a 50-50 or so victory over RoX, and not having played Navi (Alliance is playing like utter . . .ugh). .

So no, I have no idea why you would put them in 5th. . . at best. . .

War is not about who is right, it is about who is left.

Well then the editors picks should be explicitly stated or no one's at all. What is the point in having individual ranks shown if they aren't the deciding factor? its misleading and makes the power rank look ridiculous.

And Plansix-we know you have a low IQ no need to keep replying.

The Eastern ranks are pretty solid, and very few people would argue against it.
The Western ranks are definitely a bit murky, especially w/o seeing how Empire would fare in LANs. Resolution's drafting really has done a lot of work for Empire's wins, but in a LAN environment drafting is quite a bit more difficult/different. We gonna have to wait and see!

Id say C9 should be fourth because their potential is high enough to place third and even contest for second. Inconsistancy keeps them out of those positions for sure though.
