SC2 would get its own power rank if they were to make one (not that I have any power over that it is just the only reasonable possibility). How would you compare (insert top SC2 player) to (insert top SC1 player) when they are playing different games against different people. That would be like comparing (insert basketball player) to (insert football player), it doesn't matter what you do they just aren't comparable.

it would (of course) be relative and up to the writer of said PR. of course that is what the PR is.. the writer's interpretation of who they believe is playing at the highest level.

I agree with wswordsmen. You just can't compare how people play 2 different games in the same Ranking. That's common sense. But if someone asked me to do it I would just put players of BW because the control is easier in SC2 (no number limit in control groups). But I think it's pretty obvious they should make another PR for SC2.

haha, remembering the controversy about how waxangel wasn't glowing enough with his praise, i was re-reading a final edit and came across this:
"Yes, Flash is still unquestionably the best player on earth. This kid has utterly exploded since his GSI win over Stork. Between that time and now, Flash has gone 23-3, a stretch of dominance that is unheard of in today's field. He has no weak matchups. His games aren't just victories, but sad, one-sided affairs that leave his opponent laying on the floor in the fetal position, weeping and wondering why they ever picked up a copy of StarCraft." - FakeSteve on Flash (June 2008)

And that was in june 2008 here he only had like one tittle , and that PR seems better than this one.

you should have heard how he talked of stork just a month before, saying he sucked and all. FakeSteve was very biased. (3 years latter a player that apparently sucked is still in the PR?). I mean the only controversy Waxangel created is "he put Flash number one but he didn't praise him enough".

The controversy with Waxangel's article is that it lacks any sort of fervor. It was just easiest to jump on the Flash one because Flash did make quite a showing.

cbnc: yayba!

GSL sucked so much, IntoTheRainbow is like 7 years past his prime, I turned off live Low Quality Finals after second game, knowing he will loose. In new PR You would have to put Clide first, and be so embarassed for doing so after next GSL, it's just not worth it..

I don't think WCG matters much, but Flash is obviously still the #1. ^__^

FakeSteve on Flash (June 2008). Not Waxangel, FakeSteve. Are people too thick to realize this? It's a different writer with a different writing style. Has nothing to do with a personal grudge against flash, get over it.

Nobody claims that Waxangel is holding a grudge against Flash. But the man himself admits being a Jaedong fan that doesn't get excited by Flash. I thank him for a solid Power Rank. As a Flash fanboy I would also like to bask in Flash's glory, and I hope even you can admit that the current Power Rank is a letdown in that respect. A number of people have respectfully noted it, I don't understand why do you have a problem with that.

As the TL writing staff assembled to write this report, there was one thing that amazed me. I tried to find someone who wanted write Flash’s victory tribute piece, but I couldn’t find one. Seriously! Maybe all the Flash fanboys are on vacation with KTF in the Philippines, but I couldn’t find any volunteers in time. As a Jaedong fan, I knew it would be unfair to leave this task to anyone but the most committed Flash supporter. There are some very good arguments for Flash being the greatest player of all time, but I don’t want to be the one to stir up that s***storm. Rest assured we’ll find someone to work TeamLiquid’s famed hyperbole mill and cook up a great TLFE for Flash.

I'm aware that not much has changed, but will there be an October PR any time soon? After WCG finals perhaps?

Awesome! Flash is now, for the first time, officially the best player in the world. ^__^

Can't believe he is reigning champion in literally all tournaments; WCG, OSL, MSL, PL and WL. God Young Ho FTW!
