Flash is #2 in PR rank behind Bisu

Yes he lost to Zero, but as you mentioned, it was due to Zero's skill rather than Jaedong's lack of skill. I love it how Jaedong drops 4 ranks at the touch of a button while Flash generally gets a reprieve for his poor play. Jaedong faced a much more powerful zerg as well and luck played against him. In game 4, i think 2-3 seconds would have made the difference between victory and loss, while no one can commend Flash for game 2 even if he won because of his sloppy, careless loss of dropships.
And the Power rank is not about performance for any single month. It represents the most threatening players overall.
The question is, would anyone rather face Jaedong than Soulkey or even Bisu? I think most progamers would much rather play any of the rank 2-4 than Jaedong. IMO, one month shouldnt make it or break it
1-Flash 2-Jaedong 3-Zero 4-Bisu 5-Soulkey
The rest are really not all that impressive
And how can you honestly say Jaedong has been threatening in the last month? He himself has said that his performance in the last month has been poor

The Taek is from Bisu's name, Kim Taek Yong, the Bang is from Stork's Korean nickname, and LeeSang means Two Lees iirc, referring to Lee Jae Dong (Jaedong) and Lee Young Ho (Flash).

Which is a Korean way of abbreviating:
Kim Taek Yong (Bisu) Song Byung Goo (Stork) Lee Jae Dong (Jaedong) Lee Young Ho (Flash)
Basically it indicates the 4 dominant players of the era in this case. They are so dominant that any other player rising to their level for even a limited period of time is considered quite noteworthy.
Of them all, Stork is sometimes considered the "Fourth Wheel" though lately he has had significantly better individual league results than Bisu, who as recently as 4-5 months ago was close to being kicked from the TBLS elite four by Kal, who had posted much better results.

Did you mean "PL" or did you intentionally say "PR". Because I don't understand your post if you say "PR"...

I mean PL. You should at least have been able to tell what I meant if you clicked the link
