Mvp's fall was a fluke. Guy never deserved to be in the up and downs in the first place, let alone code A. Though I get where you're coming from. I say all of them should tie for 1st with mkp taking 2nd hahaha

no the list is based on oppinions of the author, also Jinro is no longer the beast he was in GSL3 and 4, hope he rediscovers his form.

I disagree on BoxeR's worst matchup being TvZ. I would even say it's his best matchup right now. (Before it was his worst, obviously)

It appears to be a completely individually ranked affair. If it was on points alone, Bomber would be weighing in somewhere in the 50s I believe? (can't remember exactly).

Read the entire thing, was a great read. My main thoughts are:
- Alicia #6? That might be the most overhyped position I've seen. Sure he's beaten some good players, but if you compare his achievements to many higher than him, he's just so-so. I'm not an MKP fan, but putting Alicia above him is a tad ridiculous even with MKP's so-so form in the GSL, he's been great outside it.
- sC #13? I guess I can live with that, though I'd put him higher easy, especially above TOP and Supernova given his breakout of the all Terran deathgroup last season.
- Top 3 I don't think can be debated.
- Squirtle puns were hilarious.

Generally: I can't wait for this to begin, and much credit for going through all #64 as a preview.

And anyone else think of Epic Mealtime's Candy BBQ whilst reading this?

Awesome awesome writeup.

After being teased by Mikilatov's excellent tournament roundups (being EU/NA power ranks in disguise), I've been waiting for a proper KR power rank and this does the job exceedingly well!

The best part is that I can easily see an update on the Top ~10 of this as a recurring/regular feature on the site. The introductory base work has been done already.

Great job TL.

I REALLY want to see some MC vs MVP or MC vs Nestea. I feel they have hardly ever vs'd each other.

Sure, it was a fluke. Doesn't change the fact that it happened and he should be judged accordingly. The writer mentioned that MC fell to the up/downs last season. You could call that a fluke too, right? But no matter how you look at it, falling to the up/downs is nowhere near as bad as actually falling to Code A.

for those who are wondering about how the rankings were generated, GTR ranked them off his personal opinion and i made a few small changes.

Lol TL writing staff is so creative hehe; not only do you inform us but you make me so so hungry!

This will hopefully be an awesome tournament; i really want a strong showing from the TL guys - that would really be something to watch!

Other than that - Mvp will win it against Nestea in the finals.

MKP as 10?? -_-

He should be in between MMA and bomber, if not higher than bomber. He has shown that he is a great player, but just a notch below Nestea/MVP/MC.

Sc should be a little higher, but nice writeup


Agreed, sC is a beast, even though he lost to NesTea. Top 4 in the GSL is no small feat. He also beat MPK in a FXOpen. sC should be at least be top ten. (I know there's a pun there with TOP)
Besides that little pet peeve, amazing write up. Love the Kyrix comment.


when did sc beat MPK in FXOpen? i watched FXOpen finals the other week and mkp 3:1 and 3:2 scfou in two bo5.

We are dusts in the vast cosmic arena. Need to make the most out of life when we still have it.

So in your first post in 4 1/2 months since joining...never mind.


As I read this list, I got more and more giddy that MMA's name wasn't appearing, because I share a similar high opinion. Yes, his up/down games basically sucked when he lost (all but that 1st one against MKP if I remember), but his ace match wins in GSTL have been electrifying. If he can play like that consistently, he has the talent to squeeze into that very top tier, imo, or in other words, win a championship.

It's a bit weird Fruitdealer is below Trickster/Tester since Trickster has done very little more, if at all, than FD after FD's famous open season 1 championship.
