Winstreak record? He's played like what, 5 games since he got 3-0'd by Flash?

JD is 19-1 in his last 20 non-Flash games. One has to wonder how many more wins he would have if OZ had a consistent second player to force ace matches.

Am I missing something here? What exactly did Jaedong do this month to put him ahead of Flash?

The OSL prelims? Are you serious? You can't hold against Flash that he is so good he (unlike Jaedong) doesn't have to play them.

Performance in PL? He has the exact same amount of wins like Flash. Yeah, Flash lost many ace games, but guess what, JD even didn't get to play them. Even if I take only this month and nothing else into account, Jaedong isn't doing better than Flash, he is just not doing worse.
Guess what, ace games are games like any other. Flash has lost around half of his recent games; Jaedong has won them all. Hard to see how you can call that "not doing better".


It's actually pretty easy to see. At the time when I wrote that Flash won every normal match and lost ace matches. JD won every normal match and didn't play any ace match. JD had the exact same number of wins like Flash in PL. For what we know, he could've lost all the ace matches as well. And the only time JD has the chance to play in ace, he dodged direct confrontation with Flash (ok, I don't believe he actually was afraid to play Flash, but his coach certainly wasn't confident in sending him).

Now JD is up one game, that's true.

It's just retarded to look at number of wins and not number of losses. If Jaedong had played as many ace matches as Flash and lost them all then he would have had the same record as Flash. But there's no reason to think he would have lost them all.

For everyone saying "Flash is only winning the games that don't matter and losing the ones that do," take note: Flash hasn't lost a game that actually mattered since the MSL finals. While a lot of teams are approaching the most crucial stage of proleague, KT is not one of those teams. In fact, attending proleague matches is just a formality for Flash - KT could play like ACE for the rest of the season and still waltz into the grand finals. With that in mind, the 'oh Flash is choking when it counts so Jaedong should be above him' argument looks even sillier than if we just look at the recent MSL finals 3-0ing of the tyrant himself.

This is probably the best thing for Flash since it will keep him focused on improving significantly which is only great since they'll be seeded to Proleague finals and he won't have many games after the season ends since he's seeded far in both leagues.

Regardless he's only really losing epic games so he doesn't have that far to go to start winning a lot again.

Here's hoping that Jaedong can recover his "magic spark." Maybe Effort took it. All-in-all this was a great month for being a spectator.

Flash is still #1 without much doubt, but JD certainly catched up. So far I would put Flash at 1, JD at 2, Effort at 3 and Baby at 4.

I can see Jaedong getting the #1 spot if he keeps up the performance he's had so far this month.

How can you keep Effort at 3 after losing to Fantasy, Juni, Horang2, and Stats?

Yeah, I agree. Stats has been playing pretty good this month. His only bad loss was to Roro's terribad ZvP.

I cannot agree to keeping effort in the top 5 of the power rank after his performance so far this month. Baby at #3 I can agree with.

Down: (Z)EffOrt, (P)Kal, (P)Shuttle, (T)Midas, (Z)Shine

Up: (P)free, (P)Stork, (Z)great, (T)Sea, (T)sKyHigh

Stats for CBNC at this point I think. He needs to have some more impressive wins in addition to beating Effort. Losing to Roro is pretty bad too since Roro's not as good as he was last month.

> Mystery terran #1 is 4-4 this month, and has lost several ace matches in a row. He is qualified into both starleagues as a seed. He's been mentioned at #1 and #2 on this page.

Can you identify and rank these three terrans?

You forget to mention that mystery terran #1 is already seeded into both starleagues due to reaching both finals just a month ago.
