I actually believe that big part of shine hate is caused by his looks; he is not likeable like bisu, cute like zero or fun like fbh. Combine with destroying peoples favourites, he is suddenly hated far to much. With time and with (possibly) continued good results hi reputation will probably begin to shine. | ||

Shine has been playing more consistent, but I think Movie has more upside. You can say that Shine is 4a and Movie is 4b, but if you look at their records it's pretty similar. As for who wins in the OSL Ro4. I think its 50/50 mainly because El Nino and HBR favors Zerg. If the maps were more balanced, I would favor Movie. But Movie, he wins against Zergs in Zerg favored maps, especially on HBR. | ||

#3 Bisu Anti-fans are going to rage hard about this entry, but the truth is Bisu is clearly #3 on the scene at the moment. While certainly below Jaedong's standard in most matchups right now, he is still playing great Starcraft. Despite a loss to Luxury early on, Bisu delivered the results needed for SKT T1, and though now out of the OSL, is still by far one of the strongest contenders for a MSL title this season. Simply put, Bisu just didn't play enough this month to justify putting him lower. His games haven't been spectacular, sure, but remember, that's all relative. This guy is still one of progaming's most consistent performers, and it shows. Bisu was given his 'benefit of the doubt' month this month. He should be lucky to get a low #9/10 spot in Jan. Do you really want someone who got manner-CC'd by CuteAngel high on the PR? | ||

Also, Fantasy should be placed higher and Stork too, if you look at this month... Sea shouldn't even be in the Top-10, because in every other League than the Proleague, he is insignificant. There are tons of Players that deserve to be in this List more than Sea, like Light, Kal, JangBi, the aforementoined Leta etc. And yes; Bisu is clearly overrated atm. He lost games he should've never lost this month. | ||

 Stork's and Movie's failure today there should be no discussion who the top3 are gonna be. Flash JaedongCalmStork/Movie/Kal/Shine all deserve #4 imo. The rest can be given to Effort, Hwasin, Kwanro... | ||

I think the fact that Calm has won all his games in the OSL is significantly more important than a loss in PL. Even Flash lost to HyuN this month in PL and no one is disputing that he's the #1 player by miles.I'd say Calm's just slightly ahead of Kal because he's played better quality opponents the Last month while having basically the same win:loss ratio. | ||
