I think you're way too generous with the Zerg rankings and I predict that the Korean protoss will do real well in this tournament. My bet's on Creator or Squirtle winning the entire thing.
Don't be so humble, you're not that great.

Bogus is too high up. Rain proves that these foreign tournaments WRECK KeSPA players. KeSPA has never had to participate in these marathon tournaments before, and the variance in who you could play takes away the diligence and preparation advantage a lot of KeSPA players have.

Rain got 5/6 th at MLG coming out of the open bracket and 3rd at WCS; so no, Bogus is not ranked too high

Kespa can't play at IPL, the only reason Bogus is playing is because he's going there for GSL Semi Finals and it would look really bad if Kespa/MLG would say he can't play even though he's already there.

Nerchio and Scarlett are in the top 30 and yet Naniwa is not?? Pretty sure Naniwa has been making deep runs in tournaments and defeating "code-s level" koreans not just in the past but also quite recently.

TL writers have a serious bias against Naniwa and Huk and always have. While I agree Huk isn't nearly at the shape he once was in..... even when he was on the top of his game making deep runs in MLG and competing in GSL they still had him and Naniwa at the very bottom below many other less accomplished players (usually Korean).

Tricky power rank when the tournament is stupid stacked. Still some Koreans was really high up in the rank while a couple of foreigners were left out cold.

Like MC on rank 13, did I miss the tournaments MC did great in the last 3 months?

The StC above Nerchio, Scarlett, Vortix Sen and Naniwa? Well it cannot not have been tournaments results cause there it is K/O victory for the foreigners so someone must have seen something I did not.

Could make it longer by adding some question marks like Byun. Not sure about MMA either or well maybe he actually has been performing again.

Did I just miss it, or did Sen not make the list or honorable mentions? He did just do better than anyone outside of Korea in the BWC. He took second in the GSL WC NA qualifiers.

Pretty sure Zerg will win this lol, Huyn, LeeNock and Life is way too strong and there is no MVP to save this tourney.

Disappointed there's no Rain at this tournament. I thought he was there but if he's not in the top 10 of the powerrank something must have happened.

Can't believe Vortix made it over Nani.

I'll echo what several others have said; Naniwa should be ranked ahead of every foreigner besides Stephano and Nerchio.

I like this list, maybe shifting Life a bit down and perhaps replacing Nerchio with NaNiwa.

Problem with lists like this in general is that there's been a lot of upsets in the GSL recently and no player's been really consistent - the GSL Ro4 is currently made up of mostly previously unmentioned players. This makes it hard to see who is actually on top.

And to whoever said Squirtle will win, funny you paired Creator with him - WCS Korea, maybe? Anyway, Squirtle does have a shot, but the odds are stacked against him... he's on the rise, but it's too soon for him to win an IPL, especially with so many strong players.
