Overall a good PR. Well written and mostly reasonable choices.

The first three are obvious, even though Flash seems rather like a Fusion of Aizen and Goku who ate a Black Hole devil Fruit than like a ordinary Espada. Bisu with his Beauty-Bankai activated is clearly third, good to see the Trio back.

For 4th and 5th I'd exchange Soulkey and Kal. I don't know what it is with Kal, but he just wins. The only choices that seem off are Snow and Fantasy who should be exchanged. Fantasy plays great and he has shown at the end of last season that he can play on one level with Flash and he delivered in all important PL games. On the other hand Snow is only potential so far and I think Fantasy's successes should be more important than Snow's tendency. Actually I wouldn't even have minded to see Snow CNBC, that would seem appropiate.

I followed the bw scene very sporadically over all those years. Only watching a vod here and there and getting excited, not knowing much whats going on on the whole. Then with the sc2 hype I finaly registered on TL and strangely I feel attracted more and more to bw matches...

It went like this: I read the commandements and the part about the strategy forums (not sure if it is in the commandements or in a different section). There was an example about how a strat guide should be done. Reading this guide (it was a 5hatch hydra guide I think) I got somehow drawn in. There was an actual history about PvZ, with saviour-bisu-jeadong on the spotlight. Wow... I started reading about those players and especially bisu (and his pvz style) got me interested.

Then as soon as I saw bisu again on the powerrank some time ago, I started to watch his vods... and suddenly and strangely I got excited how he beat roro and then jaedong... and then other ppls vods... you get the picture.

I feel like this powerrank is like an anchor for the prof. bw scene. keep it there, keep it up!

As much as I like Soulkey, he shouldn't be up there. While his ZvT is sound, his ZvP consists of turtling on 4 bases with massive sunkens and no hydras, and is quite shaky.

In the game vs Ace, Ruby accidentally esc'd out of the game before the countdown, forfeiting his loss to Flash. Flash won a game without even playing it.

wth. I was expecting the PR to turn in sc2 PR since they were all waiting for the GSL2 finals to be played to determine the #1.

Anyway, I can't believe BW people still put up with Kespa's BS. In the recent GSL2, boxer had a mouse problem and he paused the game. If Kespa was there they'd DQ the emperor. Kyrix was also late to his match because of transportation problems. Kespa would've DQ'ed him too and robbed us of the great series that was Kyrix vs Foxer.

Would have helped if Best made it out of OFFLINES in either league....

Yeah no shit. This also isn't the place to complain about KeSPA (which btw has procedures in place for mouse issues, thanks to which Effort won an OSL). Leave the sc2 stuff out of here please.
