However, I still question your placement of JD below Flash when it was clear who was playing better Starcraft. In that single series maybe. Then Flash beat Jaedong a few days later. Look you can't possibly attempt to claim that someone that got a Gold + Silver in Individual leagues WHILE being a reliable ace for their team doesn't deserve number 1. I'm sorry but it's still no contest. The two of them against each other is 50:50 but Flash simply had a more impressive month over all. | ||

He should be #1 because his fanboy says so :| There's only one fanboy quoted in this post. And he's been dominating ALL THE TIME. We had a discussion a while back about how if you beat someone in an important Bo5 you should be above them. It was the MSL finals, a lot was on the line, and Jaedong came out on top. He should be number1 this month. | ||

The #2 player on your rank BEAT the #1 player on the list in the most important situation. JD should be ranked first. | ||

i ask you to believe me , im very objective about starcraft professional scene , even if i have a lot of preference and hate about progamers . jaedong is better than flash , he has shown it during MSL finals and proleague match . flash won this game on match point because of JD mistake , flash won , congratulations to him , he didnt played so bad . but jaedong just confirmed in this game he play better starcraft than flash . flash is maybe the best in multitasking , but he sucks in many ways . he sucks in strategy and thinking , he is NOT the best in micro at all . ( he has good micro for sure , but not the best . check it harder , youll see ) . he sucks in mental strenght and psychologic . jaedong is really really better than he was in 2008 . jaedong is now the king of competition . you MUST admit that . flash deserve the 1# spot for january , but he does NOT deserve the "best player" title . stop saying flash always dominate JD or flash is better , that is simply NOT TRUE . | ||

Imo, Jaedong is better than FlaSh in multitasking and micro. But, FlaSh is a great player who THINKS, yes, he is a very smart player and his strategical play is awesome. | ||

JD should be ranked first. Flash accomplished more than Jaedong this month and this season, therefore Flash should be #1. Making both finals at the same time is such a difficult and rare feat that I don't think losing one takes much away from it. Especially considering he has also been the best performer in Proleague. If Flash had lost in the semifinals his head to head record with Jaedong would look much better and he undoubtedly would still have received #1 on the strength of that and his OSL win. His overall achievements would be worse and Jaedong's, assuming he still won the MSL, would be the same. You want to bump Flash a rank for not losing to Kwanro? | ||

Flash might have demonstrated some of the best strategic thinking in TvZ ever. JD turtled hard, quickly got 4 gas. Flash knows exactly how to counter this. JD flies in his mutas into flash's base and sees that Flash has double star ports with two addons, and tricks JD into thinking, "Okay, he's gonna get vessels so I can inflict a lot of damage with my guardians." So JD gets guardians and what does flash do? He gets two WRAITHS instead of two vessels. If he hadn't done that then JD would've inflicted HEAVY damage with his guardians. Flash makes his two science vessels afterwards. JD is still in a pretty good position at this point, he's sunkened heavily and only had one weak spot. So flash makes two dropships afterwards. JD knows that the only way flash is coming back is with drops, so he has scourge and zerglings patrolling his ridges. So flash D-mats two dropships and drops at JD's only weak point. Flash's thinking was perfect, his timing was even better. If he had dropped 15 seconds later, JD would've had way too much shit and he would've defended that drop easily. | ||
