Maybe I suck at reading charts, but you should have a clear marker for where All-kills happened, like a hall of fame each week for the player that had one. And what's a reverse all-kill? Please someone explain.

EDIT: Great write-up as always <3

I seriously love Winner's League. It accurately shows which players are the most dominant.

To be honest this week wasn't that hot Lachrymose. I chose the best 5 games, but like I said there were only 6 or 7 I even thought about. The two weeks before that I had a list of 15 games or so.

As for why I talked about Flash's winning percentage.. Flash has consistently shown top form against better opponents. I think Jaedong has a LOT to prove still. His flash and brilliance and speed are amazing, but he still needs to take down some big names in big moments. Flash has already done that.

In their biggest moments:

JD:
Light UpMagiC Stork
Luxury Flash Mind Kal

Flash:
Jaedong Anytime Stork
Jaedong Bisu Stork

I think Flash has also had the harder road. His team is much worse than Jaedong's, he's younger and plays a much less exciting style. He's criticized for that and his looks. He's still dominating in every way. Jaedong is a monster, don't get me wrong. He's on the best form right now. But I think he needs to win against Bisu Flash and say.. sAviOr to be for sure the best.
Never give up on something that you can't go a day without thinking about.

While it does show the most dominant it destroys them as well. Flash is an amazing example of this. All of KTF sucks. They would get 4-0 by every team in WL if not for Flash. But because of this they have to play Flash every WL match they play, ending up in flash playing about 10 games a week, sometimes even more, resulting in Flash dropping out from both leagues. Both of his opponents where extremely happy that they won. You could tell that they knew that they got lucky..... Flash was tired from all the WL and couldn't practice for these games. Flash was almost crying after his OSL/MSL eliminations. He looked finished. I wouldn't be surprised if he goes into a huge slump, but then again I would be less surprised if he rebounded and destroyed in the WL.

to all those who say they are overworking flash i say no.

yes he has been out a lot on the winner's league. Does that mean he is overworked? yes and no. yes in a sense that he is playing a lot. No as that you make a misconception that he dropped due to this. He dropped because of cheeses/being out played. If you look at his games he was still playing very well (against upmagic it was sad to see but he played very well indeed). So he played 10 games for the winner's league. that doesn't mean he spent his time practicing for those 10 wins. he was good to get those wins. If you look at KTF he is the ace. Meaning he is the last person called and always is the last person to be put in place. Sure the team hasn't been winning and he has had to carry the team to win, but 10 games is nothing in a week. I'm sure many of you had played 10 games in a day. And for practicing... i'm very sure he has tried to keep up with both leagues and i'm sure the coaches have been helping him with both leagues. It is unfortunate he dropped... not that he is overworked. He is the ace card.. if anything they don't want to put him in but he has been placed in. Him winning is due to his skill, not him being overworked and thus being some Winners League practicing machine.

but then again i'm sure a lot of you are trying to find an excuse for why it sucks that he is out.
To be honest i'm not a flash fan... if anything i wanted him dropped out of the MSL since JD was no longer there. Then he got dropped form the OSL and i was happy. But then to see him lose to Leta made me sad in a very weird way. Though I am an anti-fan... the MSL now seems sooo boring seeing him out. Plus i hate leta more. But to get back to the point... him losing was stupid Leta and his cheese build... not KTF overworking him. Its a generalization with no proof whatsoever (10 games does not = being overworked he might no have even practiced 1 game for WL and may have pulled off 10 wins due to his skill.)

Yeah, I'm always sad when Flash loses. I just wish he'd keep himself in individual leagues- he simply deserves to be there. JaeDong and Flash are just ridiculously good.
The whole six dragons thing... I think it's pretty much redundant now. I mean, sure they're good and players like Bisu, Jangbi, Stork (yes, Stork, he still rocks) are still absolutely top players, but I think this Protoss dominance has passed. Despite being a Protoss user, I can't say I'm particularly sad.

I have a question, and I searched for this a bit so sorry if it was obvious. Will there be winners league playoffs, or does this just count as ro3 of the proleague season where six teams are making it to the playoffs. Thanks in advance for the info.

Flash and Jaedong are crazy good, I hope T1 (especially Bisu even tho hes been ok) can step it up, and this Winners League format rocks.

Fzero,
this table is a bit wrong in numbers
http://www.teamliquid.net/staff/Fzero/PL/w4Maps.png

Total in appearances dont agree with summ of others.
For example, protoss results on medusa are obviously wrong calculated.
Jaedong ftw
