More like Effort and Zero . They still have not dissapointed except randomly loosing ZvZ which i don't blame them since even JD loses .

The PR isn't intended to be predictive, it's merely meant to encapsulate a moment. The thing is, Jaedong was horribly over-ranked last month, but he had a very good month recently, and his current position is just fine.

It's ironic yes, but Bisu at #3 should be debated on the results of his month, it has nothing to do with how terrible he's playing right now.
EDIT: So did I. I'm just saying that going down that road is problematic. We both agree!

I did debate it like many others have done in the first few pages

Bisu got #3 basically because there wasn't any real evidence that he was playing bad. He didn't play many games but it did look like he had stabilized. Progaming has just been so messed up over the past month ... I suspect that January will yield a very very different ranking
Unless he loses almost all of his remaining Proleague games, I can't see Bisu dropping off the list altogether. He's looked really unbalanced lately, but brief periods of ineptness happen even with S-class players. His game against Mind was excellent, so it's not as if his skills just vanished. More like he plays sloppy against opponents he doesn't respect. Which is really not a good skill to have. It's pretty clear just from PL round 1 that everyone's skills have improved significantly and that no one is rolling over for anyone anymore.
If the Power Rank is supposed to be any sort of indicator of who is currently "powerful", then Bisu is sure as hell not dropping off it unless he continues to fuck up this month. And he sure as hell won't be continuing to fuck up, because he'll be coming back with a vengeance after these recent embarrassments, and he'll have nothing to distract him from practicing for proleague.
Jaedong is starting to find his groove again. Although it is troubling that his only two losses out of his last 10 games have been to zerg, and zerg who clearly should NOT have beaten him.
Jaedong's ZvZ is still shoddy, he's just playing less of it now, his ZvP and ZvT never went anywhere, he just barely played any last month because he was seeded so far in the individual leagues.

losses to Bogus, Guemchi and HAKSOO... -___- all of which he should have beat quite comfortably, or was expected to beat quite comfortably.
His much vaunted PvP and PvT seemed very sloppy and quite amatuerish
To be fair, there is no indication that his PvT is any weaker than it ever was. Any Protoss would've lost to Bogus' cheese on that map if they did the same opening as Bisu, unless they were incredibly lucky with a scout.
