This is not the time to be bitter! Rejoice instead, KT/Flash fans, for this is it; the time for the Ultimate Weapon's era of complete dominance has come! The Ultimate Weapon is now perfected!

I honestly did not see him rising back up *that* fast. He must've gotten laid or something :O

Nice writeup, riptide! Now this is a PR I can agree with... except for this:

Best - His win vs Calm, though not spectacular in itself, is also commendable, even given Calm's resent form.

There's nothing to resent about Calm's form. Okay, that was a bad pun; just wanted to point out you probably meant "recent" :p

u gotta be kidding me
a) since when are WCG games to be considered for the PR? i mean, was there any word about bisu dropping games to effort & jaystar(!) at IEF and that he didn't make it out of his group?
b) why is bisu #3 and calm #7 when fantasy is #9? according to TLPD bisu played 4 games in november, going 3-1 with wins against hero-gorush-mind, while losing to luxury (noone who is in the PR atm)
calm played 8 games in November, went 2-6, dropped out of MSL, lost to fantasy in OSL, lost to fantasy the ace match (and a game against hyun as well)
fantasy on the other hand went 6-2, with 2 wins against calm in OSL & ace match, hoejja and baby, and 2 losses against flash(#1 PR and being on a 13 win tvt streak or what) and calm

so why on earth is bisu then ranked 6 spots higher? ofc bisu is still (given storks recent results) the #1 toss, but is he SO much better than fantasy? and that's what I really don't understand: if you put calm in the PR (for whatever reason), then why is he 2 spots above fantasy? his ELO is 22 points lower, he went 1-2 against fantasy in important matches, he is 2-6 overall this month

i don't get it

€: ok i don't know if fantasys recent match against HITE was already counted for ELO so with the 22 points i could be wrong. still, the argument holds imho

More or less i agree if Stork didnt pull a 2 days of bad games i would put him on 2nd place but he sucked and i was disapointed hope he rises even stronger than before Stork for OSL then !

Just before i read this is there something about bisu and jaedong with a kespa like effect, they play like shit for a month and stay up in the top 5, flash can play just as bad and be dropped off compleatly
Anyway agree compleatly with no.1, if jaedong and bisu wernt so high this list would be spot on
Thanks riptide!


That's a totally unfair characterization.

Flash was dropped off the PR after a month in which his only achievements were a gold in gom and the highest number of PL wins for the season.

Jaedong won over 4 games total this past month. It's a totally different situation.

Yes he has! BeSt has been playing really great SC again lately. I'm sad to see Kwanro hogging the 10-spot, especially since he lost pretty awfully to Flash in his highest-profile game of the month. I think BeSt deserved a place on this rank, he's 8-2 in his last 10 official games now and in November had wins against your #1 and #7. Sure Kwanro also 2-0d his MSL group, but he had the luxury of playing Hwasin and Shine.

JD won 10 games total this past month: 1 win in OSL Ro16, 5 wins in SPL and 4 wins in WCG GF (over Bisu & Stork in 2 Bo3s).

Hmmm, one thing that strikes me as a bit weird when I think about it is how low Fanasy is. I hate him and all, but he raped Calm in OSL and then also beat him in their ace game, so seeing Calm above Fantasy is a tad confusing. The loss to Flash is completely ignorable, because that would happen to every other T in the world.


Like everyone's been saying, Calm is ranked way too high for his performance. The OSL game against Fantasy was awful, I've never seen a player that was so unsure of his performance. It's as if he didn't prepare at all because he looked confused and his play showed it. Fantasy completely dominated him and it wasn't even close to being a good game. Also, calm dropped the ace match to fantasy, which was a good game, but he had an economic advantage in the middle, which he proceeded to piss away over the remainder of the game.
Kwanro has also looked pretty weak, the loss to Flash might not be embarrassing, but he got dismantled by Ruby, which may not be as embarrassing as it used to be, but is a pretty poor performance by a player who made it to the MSL finals last season (even if you blame it on maps or whatever). Best would have been a much better candidate for 10th at the very least.

Top 5 (except for Flash) must have been extremely difficult to choose, it was a crazy month.

As much as I am a (Z)Calm fan, I kinda think he should be lower than the others. Everything else seems Okay, but I'm surprised (T)Flash came back so quickly. I expect to see him maintain his position! :D

The luxury of playing Hwasin?! Hwasin's TvZ is still quite good.

(That said, I think I would have put Best over Kwanro too, but beating Hwasin in ZvT is still a strong win.)
Zero fighting.
