Both the facts but also the "spirit" count for him. Facts are that he's a dual leaguer, having already passed his Ro32 group in the MSL: So he's Ro16 in the MSL and won against Movie in a good match in OSL Ro16. The spirit thing is that I feel Hwasin is doing something different this season - I cannot quite put my finger on it, but there seems to be more determination than usual. So, what do you think? I agree. I was very surprised at how calm Hwasin was when he outmicroed Zero with his rush. And Hwasin won't go 0-3 in his group, who knows maybe he can finally get a semi final appearance again. | ||

Hwasin beat Firefist and Zero in that MSL group, not Jangbi. The point still stands though. | ||

But lol at Sea popping up so high; Light's position is very defendable, but Sea at #3 is kinda weak, especially when you consider that it's based on the hypothetical that he would've won a lot more games if it weren't for Light. This isn't the first time hypotheticals have been used to justify a player's rank, and they're rather dubious tools as they could be used to justify pretty much anything. Both of Sea's games vs Flash weren't close, while his game against forGG was too close for comfort. Even less justifiable is taking Jaedong's enteritis into account. It's not that relevant -- he prolly shit his gut out for a few days and that's it, it's not like he's been stricken with cholera or something. Enteritis might help explain his poor game against Baby, but all that does is weaken your overall point. But I guess MBC must be offered its fan tribute to make up for them not winning the WL :p "I push back completing the PR until after the finals and all we get is this lousy 2nd place?!" | ||

He had a terrible month like stork and he only moves down 2 spot while stork 3?? 11-6 is not that terrible, especially not when he only had one game in his best match-up, and 5 of his losses where against (with the exception of Darkelf) good Terrans, in a time where Zerg is I think less than 40% overall the match-up. Yeah, it's still not at all the level of performance we have come to expect from Jaedong, and his drop to 4th is well justified (though perhaps not crystal clear), but come on. Stork for comparison is 3-3. | ||

Even without a great WL performance I would have to put someone like Hwasin or Zero in that spot for showing much better games in crunchtime and very few depressing losses. I agree. Given that Hwasin advanced to ro16 in MSL and is in a good position to advance into ro8 in OSL he should probably get spot on the PR. Especially, that Leta is not in either league... I would be more than happy if Hwasin took Leta's spot. | ||

And I think Jeadong’s rank this month is pretty justified. I expect he’ll be able to go back up again, but only after his illness stops impeding him. Hopefully someone will rise to the level of Flash. It’s not that I dislike him, or want him to fail, but rather because having good competition is always more interesting then clear cut, almost 100% certainty that Flash is going to win. Kinda feel like Sea is a bit to high. Not sure how I feel about Light, but he certainly beat a large number of opponents so I can't really argue with it. | ||

Just because people don't agree with you doesn't make them a troll. | ||

It's just ZvT which was an issue last month anyway so more accurately JD is recovering. He said in his last interview he likes the new maps which makes me suspect he's winning a lot in practice again. Still I will begrudgingly agree with the 1-4. Wish Hwasin was mentioned though When did he fix his ZvZ? I mean all due credit for a streak but Roro Shine July Hogil and a slumping Yarnc have been terrible at ZvZ for awhile. | ||
