Have you watched the games? 10-2 this month and amazing play to boot. His 3kill of samsung and 2 AKs are hella impressive as well. Nobody has more momentum than Stats currently. He's hands down the best player this month. | ||

Nobody has more momentum than Stats currently. He's hands down the best player this month. I haven't watched the games from today (yet) but all the other ones. Even though he might have been the best this month, I still think that there is something to be said for not coming in and taking spot 1/2 immediately from off the power rank. If he'd been on the power rank last month I could have seen it, but as it is, no. Also 10-2 is very, very good and the games were impressive however Flash is 7-2 which isn't much worse and has been consistent for a much longer time. Again I think he totally deserves a spot, even a high spot just not nr 1/2 immediately. | ||

This isn't just a record thing, it's the way he's played. You seriously have to watch those woongjin games, Stats absolutely spat in the face of broodwar and strangled it to death with his chin. | ||

I would agree with this if Stats was a rookie, but he's been a solid, consistent player for well over a year now, and if you watch all his games, none of them were close to flukes. Also. Stats 4 bonjwahhhhh | ||

There's something to be said for overshadowing Flash as KT's star for a month. This isn't just a record thing, it's the way he's played. You seriously have to watch those woongjin games, Stats absolutely spat in the face of broodwar and strangled it to death with his chin. This situation in particular is a little unfair though, since they are on the same team. Stats being sent out first and all-killing prevents Flash from doing so and vice-versa. That being said, I agree that Stats played excellently but he should not be #1 yet imho. | ||

You're up against Darth Vader, if you lose you die. Which progamer would you pick to play for you/ which progamer would be the worst possible scenario if he is picked to play for Mr. Vader? Flash edges Stats, but I don't see anyone more fearsome than Stats for the number two spot. Unless he drops out of his MST group in a bizarre upset. | ||

Even if you know the result I don't want to spoil it for you. + Show Spoiler + But seriously, that game against Zero reminds me of Flash's best games. Absolutely amazing composure under pressure. How did he not panic and pull all his probes when the Nexus was going down? | ||

I'd choose Jaedong or Iloveoov easily over those two! | ||

Iloveoov is 5-0 in finals, on top of his game, he doesn't fall to any mindgames and just clutch as fuck. And plus, he was the first player that gave me "Wow, no matter how much I try, I can NEVER play like that.". He made me to actually appreciate Terran. | ||
