You make a good argument, but the fact of the matter is that  Crazy-Hydra has won every game of his this month. You have to beat the king to become the king, and Crazy-Hydra proved that Jaedong was only a pretender to the throne. | ||

Well Flash isn't the only who has done that =p i didnt write anything about domination, just about raw skill, and i do think flash is most skilled progamer ever. Ofcourse, some players can top him in certain areas, like jaedong in mental strenght, but his micro and macro combined are best ever | ||

Hit 2400 Elo multiple times with a 70% lifetime win rate, won his 22nd consecutive TvT for the longest streak ever, passed iloveoov's monstrous TvZ peak Elo rating, won an OSL gold and a MSL silver while winning ace matches for his team in proleague? Lol, whatever. Jaedong dominated him in the most indisputable, uncontroversial way I've ever seen in the best starleague finals of recent memory. In fact, if Jaedong hadn't made any mistakes at all, he'd have won 3-0. Seriously, why are you Flash fanboys so blind to the fact that those MSL finals games told us all we ever needed to know? Recognize the sarcasm. End of thread. People didn't want to acknowledge Flash as the clearly better player with his 2-0.. I don't think you should really acknowledge Jaedong as the better player with his 3-1 that was marred with a bunch of fucked up circumstances. Jaedong and Flash are nothing more than 50:50 at the moment and if you take this month into account... Flash did better STILL. The end. | ||

Stork looked good last night; I was worried about him after some of these recent losses but he is playing well, especially considering the maps. He obviously has to drop in power rank, though, because Flash and Jaedong are gonna be in the top two spots. Not sure whether or not someone else should pass Stork... | ||

I can't believe some people are able to draw conclussion that JD > Flash based solely on the fucked up 3:1 MSL Final (fucked up becase of game 4, I actually believe JD was going to win game 3 anyway). If something, it along with the 0:2 OSL game showed us how incredibely close these two are and how stupid is calling one of them better than the other right now. And it that case, for powerranking needs, Flash should be nr. 1 because he DID accomplish more than JD this month. Next month, with lots of games played in WL, it can be a totally different story. qft. Flash took out Jaedong in OSL, Jaedong took out Flash in MSL. | ||

It's almost a shame we have two overly-amazing players otherwise more history records would be getting broken. | ||

It's almost a shame we have two overly-amazing players otherwise more history records would be getting broken. Ya, they're both really far ahead of all competition. So I'm having a great time (being a fan of both).  | ||
