Compared to last month this looks like a really spot on rank . Every player feels in the right place except for Kwanro who is kinda random at 7 , but i can't really think of any player who did something outstanding to replace him . If you ask me i still think Calm should be there instead of him even thought he has been struggling against terran . Calm has been a beast in ZvZ and his other MUs are decent at worst .

WTF!!! Did you not watch game two of the MSL finals? 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.



this is not showing any intelligence or something from flash . just showing that he improved a lot . what he did was really good play , i loved that trust me . but it was nothing really brillant or something , just beautiful . flash has weakness , he is not perfect . flash fanboys sees him as a god or something ? flash is just a remake of iloveoov , i HATE that . nothing really special .

special players are the ones with PERSONALITY . flash has NOTHING .

special player is BOXER . special player is Nal_Ra . special player is jaedong . flash is nothing like them . nothing . just another monster kid .

flash sucks in psychologic . flash sucks in creativity . flash sucks in intelligence . flash sucks in mental strenght . he is NOT a micro player like jaedong , bisu or boxer . he loves turtle . he is NOTHING . he just learnt starcraft copying progamers when he was 12 . he just SUCKS compare to jaedong .

i must agree that he deserve the 1#spot for january , but dont tell me he is better than jaedong . FOR GOD SAKE , DONT TELL ME THAT CRAP .

do you watch starcraft ? do you know starcraft ?

NOBODY on earth has the right to say that flash is now better than jaedong . that would be just BLINDNESS .

You're an idiot.

I mean you're a blatant one, so much so that you're pretty troll worthy. What the hell makes you the foremost expert on who does and who doesn't have a personality in the pro scene...who the hell are you to claim that Flash isn't one of the most brilliant Terran players to ever play the game?

You basically claim he can't micro when Flash has the best MnM control in the WORLD. He has AMAZING micro.

You know what? Stop posting, seriously. You claim someone that says that Flash is better than Jaedong is blind when you spout a bunch of crap that you have no clue about.

There is just no way that flash should be over JD. JD destroyed flash in the finals. Game 1 was simple. Game 2 was wtf greater spire, otherwise he wins easily. G3 he destroyed flash. G4 he destroyed flash. WL he outplays flash and doesnt research consume.


2-2 vs flash even taking out the power outage game where he was ahead far and away.
The two games flash won were not by his own strength but because JD made a mistake.


It would not have been surprising to see all of those games go to JD at all. So, how is it possible to say that flash is better then him? Cause flash can beat other players who are not as good? JD can beat them too. Lets not forget him destroying #6 Kal.

Demolishing the #1 player and #6 player and finishing #2 does not make sense when the #1 player hasn't done the same against anybody in the top 10 power rankings.....

wow...powa outage is a zerg ...lol

I hate my fantasy team, i had (Z)Kwanro last round when he played well but my anti-team consisting on (Z)EffOrt, (Z)Calm, (Z)RorO and (T)Sea (traded) drew my blood. Now i have FBH on anti...

Thus being said i am sorry for (Z)EffOrt or (P)Violet not being in CNBC, but i am glad to see (P)Movie, (Z)Shine, (P)Bisu are out of hand. They were over hyped for months.
I wonder what the hell (T)fantasy and Best are in the CNBC since they lost alot and having (T)Only a couple of good wins...
I have the ultimate answer, i seek the ultimate question

Flash has a personality, as seen by his dozens of translated interviews on this very site. Flash has creativity -- he has created and performed cheeses that put Boxer's to shame, he has revolutionized every Terran match up, and on this site specifically he is exalted as a player by the more intelligent analysts for "teaching [us] something new everytime he plays."

This is not to say Jaedong is not creative. I have all the respect in the world for Jaedong, but Flash is the most pragmatically creative player in the game right now.

I will be happy to cite every intelligent and creative thing Flash has done for the Terran race that I can think of, if you want, but the list would be long and arduous because Flash is THE standard of every lasting metagame shift in TvX for the last 2 years.

Sweet, I'm happy to see (T)HiyA finally crack the power rank. He has been playing solid this season in proleague. You would think Oz would be well off with a solid secondary contributer to (Z)Jaedong, but the Protoss line up has been trash.

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.


flash is just a remake of iloveoov , i HATE that . nothing really special .

special players are the ones with PERSONALITY . flash has NOTHING .

special player is BOXER . special player is Nal_Ra . special player is jaedong . flash is nothing like them . nothing . just another monster kid .

flash sucks in psychologic . flash sucks in creativity . flash sucks in intelligence . flash sucks in mental strenght . he is NOT a micro player like jaedong , bisu or boxer . he loves turtle . he is NOTHING . he just learnt starcraft copying progamers when he was 12 . he just SUCKS compare to jaedong .

i must agree that he deserve the 1#spot for january , but dont tell me he is better than jaedong . FOR GOD SAKE , DONT TELL ME THAT CRAP .

do you watch starcraft ? do you know starcraft ?

NOBODY on earth has the right to say that flash is now better than jaedong . that would be just BLINDNESS .


You're an idiot.

I mean you're a blatant one, so much so that you're pretty troll worthy. What the hell makes you the foremost expert on who does and who doesn't have a personality in the pro scene...who the hell are you to claim that Flash isn't one of the most brilliant Terran players to ever play the game?

You basically claim he can't micro when Flash has the best MnM control in the WORLD. He has AMAZING micro.

You know what? Stop posting, seriously. You claim someone that says that Flash is better than Jaedong is blind when you spout a bunch of crap that you have no clue about.


flash has NOT the best MnM micro in the world . flash is NOT one of the most brilliant terran player to ever play the game . he is just some REALLY talented kid . that NOT makes him the best . you are just blind because he is young and he is lovely because of that and blabla . WATCH MORE STARCRAFT . he is VERY good with a big army ( maybe the best terran ever in this ) , he has MONSTER macro ( jaedong has too by the way ) , he is a VERY good player for sure . but he is NOT the best . YOU JUST CANT TELL ME FLASH IS BETTER THAN JAEDONG FOR NOW . maybe in some months jaedong will fall down and flash will be even better , and you will tell me that again . but for now , you just CANT .

STOP UNDERESTIMATE JAEDONG AND OVERESTIMATE FLASH . GET OBJECTIVITY PLEASE .

and by the way ,

"flash is just a remake of iloveoov , i HATE that . nothing really special .

special players are the ones with PERSONALITY . flash has NOTHING .

special player is BOXER . special player is Nal_Ra . special player is jaedong . flash is nothing like them . nothing . just another monster kid ."

this was my subjective and emotive moment , i never said it was the true , its my personnal opinion .


Can you mention one terran player that has better MnM micro than Flash, that is more creative, that is just simply better than Flash? And just a hint: Jaedong plays Zerg.

If you can't then I have to conclude that you're either idiot or troll or both...

hahaha very hilarious thread, i cant believe people take opinions of others so personnal.

for my part, i admire both Flash and JD, i dont care who is the best as long as they teach me something and entertain me when they play.

Whoa i wouldnt be writing PR that seems so hard to rank those players correctly,

WTF!!! Did you not watch game two of the MSL finals? 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.

this is not showing any intelligence or something from flash . just showing that he improved a lot . what he did was really good play , i loved that trust me . but it was nothing really brillant or something , just beautiful . flash has weakness , he is not perfect . flash fanboys sees him as a god or something ? flash is just a remake of iloveoov , i HATE that . nothing really special .

special players are the ones with PERSONALITY . flash has NOTHING .

special player is BOXER . special player is Nal_Ra . special player is jaedong . flash is nothing like them . nothing . just another monster kid .

flash sucks in psychologic . flash sucks in creativity . flash sucks in intelligence . flash sucks in mental strenght . he is NOT a micro player like jaedong , bisu or boxer . he loves turtle . he is NOTHING . he just learnt starcraft copying progamers when he was 12 . he just SUCKS compare to jaedong .

There is just no way that flash should be over JD. JD destroyed flash in the finals. Game 1 was simple. Game 2 was wtf greater spire, otherwise he wins easily. G3 he destroyed flash. G4 he destroyed flash. WL he outplays flash and doesnt research consume.


Why are these justifications for anything? The better player ALWAYS wins and it just happened that Flash won his games in Winner's League and that game on Ultimatum because at the end of the day Jaedong played worse (forgetting consume is a massive mistake and don't assume it isn't).

Jaedong won the MSL finals and that simply means he was the better player that day but really they're more or less at the same level.

Flash had a great month. He did more than Jaedong, despite losing MSL to him. As others have stated, the rest of the ranking is somewhat up in the air so I have no real objection as to placements and those on the cusp whether they got in or not.

Not to mention, there's no way anybody can look at G3 subjectively and say flash got destroyed when, despite the colossal failure that was the power outage, it was a fantastic game.

In a normal day, JD wins unless he makes a huge game ending mistake. How often do you think that happens?

Flash drops a game against both calm and kwanro, who are ranked lower then Kal, and JD 3-0's Kal.
I dont see any real justification in how flash can have a higher power rank then JD.

Really? WTF? Really is clearly inferior to Stork yet he is above him. I don't mind Stork's placement but to place really higher is really stupid. In a Bo5, I'll put my money on Stork.
