I like Soulkey, don't get me wrong, but it feels weird seeing him as no.1 Zerg.

And Jaedong will bounce back. A rough start, but Jaedong always starts off a little rough.

And Leta should be higher...at least above Jaehoon.
this is my quote.

Jaedong belongs in the top 10 even playing below his usual top-notch standards. He's still favored against everyone below bisu on that list. If he had worse than a 50% winrate, I'd understand, but he's 8-5 (62%) this season and 4-3 since the previous power rank, including a loss to flash. When his ELO is below 10th, his kespa rank is below 10th, and his winrate is ~50%, then you could remove him and I wouldn't be complaining. But Turn? Brave? Jaehoon? ... over Jaedong? You're letting your disappointment influence your perception of his strength.

JD should have been on the rank but what ever.

He gets so insanly much shit when ever he loses. Yeah mega slump, he's still 4th in ELO.
"To all eSports fans, I want to be remembered as a progamer who can make something out of nothing, and someone who always does his best. I think that is the right way of living, and I'm always doing my best to follow that." - Jaedong. /watch?v=jfghAzJqAp0

Elo goes up when you 5 pool. Elo also goes up when you win terrible, terrible games against flying. But I assure you, neither of those worked in Jaedong's favor for the PR.

just kidding

Your jokes are horrible and you should think about what you've done.

And your jokes about Bisu crying are not? xD

Why do people hate Bisu so much? Is it only because of Bisu fans? I don't see anything he has done to be hate-worthy otherwise.


Obviously, it's because Bisu made Calm cry a lot.

Blargh where is Jaedong >: Ever since I got into broodwar this is the first time not seeing Jaedong's face on the Power Rank. I still believe in you Jaedong, bring out the Tyrant once more and make fangirls out of us again.

Man, it's been a long road as a Flash fan, and such a fulfilling one. Anyone want to blog things nobody will read and share here? I'll start.

I started following professional BW with the start of Bacchus OSL and GOM Star Invitational, just before Flash had won any medals (insert hipster picture here saying I followed Flash before he was cool), and what really grabbed me was the storyline about how he was a young prodigy. That combined with him being Terran (my favorite race), and I was cheering for him in those two tournaments and thought it was awesome when he won them both, basically sealing my entrance into BW fandom.

Then 2009 happened, and it was dark times to be a Flash fan compared to a JD/Bisu fan. Arguments raged over whether it was Jaedong or Bisu who was the 5th bonjwa, with many hurt-feelings and locked threads to be had, while Flash carried KT on his back and kept dropping out of individual leagues, having trouble dealing with rapidly-expanding Protoss while he turtled too hard, being too stingy with turrets against Zerg and getting torn apart by mutalisks, it was rough to watch.

Then, after the darkness, something changed. Flash decided to start being more aggressive in TvP and not let them superexpand anymore, often snapping their necks in the first 10 minutes of the game. He started playing TvZ with razor's-edge early bio 3rd-denials other Ts couldn't emulate because his bio control is so godly. Ps and Zs began shitting their pants wondering what Flash was going to do to them earlygame while still having a strong economy, and he used that fear to play some wicked mindgames. The final piece snapped together when Flash got his hand fixed, and now he's the true, complete ultimate weapon, acknowledged by all as the 5th bonjwa, God, the player to bring Starcraft: Brood War to its highest level of play ever.

As for the rest of TBLS, I've always liked Stork because I felt bad for him losing twice to Flash like that, plus he's just such a likable guy, and his play is fun. The reason I'm an SKT anti-fan is probably because of my butthurt over what Bisu and Fantasy did to my boy Flash back in the days (Bisu knocking him out of some things, Fantasy threatening his #1 Terran spot for a bit). Jaedong, even though he knocked Flash around a lot and it was painful to watch, somehow I've never been a Jaedong anti-fan, and I hope he gets back into form. Flash needs a good rival like that.
Favorite progamers (in order): Flash, Stork, Violet, Sea. ||| Get better soon, Violet!

I don't think that many people hate Bisu a lot. Bisu fans are the worst, though.

This has been the first time since July of 2007 that Jaedong hasn't been on the Power Rank. And, all favoritism aside, I really wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt. Unfortunately, one jaw-dropping game does not an appearance on the Power Rank make.


My responses:

Meh
Blah
Canata
Zzz
Whatever
Holy whoa Bisu this is what happens when you use high templar


Seriously?


It's pretty difficult to argue that Jaedong's record has been better than Bisu's. Jaedong have 1 good game, and the others were mostly losses. Bisu is pretty much the same, but his remaining games are mostly wins. Not the best games, even I (rabid fan) will agree, but generally Bisu's been performing better over the past year or so. On average :p

Jaedong has the most intense moment in all of SC:BW this year though. I had lots of fun watching the Consipated game :3


You have TLPD available right there on the sidebar, why spread misinformation? JD is 8-5, Bisu is 9-5 and "over the past year" he didn't make a single starleague.

People hate on JD because he plays greedy and that looks like shit when loses, just like Flash was called stupid everytime he was caught 14cc'ing, even though that's part of why he wins so much. Then EffOrt turtles 20min, banging his head against a siege wall while Flash triple expands, and the same people call it "a good game".

flamewheel doesn't look at "power" or actual games when he writes the power rank, he looks at results. "JD 5pooled and got drone blocked for 10 minutes, he's so bad." He still beat the shit out of flying and made ssak almost cry (on coach's orders, btw). That's a fucking tyrant. Then he topped it off by molesting Modesty.

He has plenty of power at the moment, way more than almost everybody on that list. But whatever, flamewheel is just a hater.

Why is Bisu on this PR? I know, everyone was crummy this round, but... well, Bisu's games have been either bad or against bad players. I mean, he lost to (T)hOn_sin. And I'm having a hard time with Bisu still making the list when Light was dropped for having a bad matchup in favor of a one-map wonder who doesn't actually have a third matchup, at least in this round.

Good call on JD though.
