 I'm very impressed by Hoejja's and Jangbi's performance lately. Unexpected to say the least... | ||

He should have been n°1 this month. But Flash tied Nada, and became the greatest progamer ever. This very month. Fucked up by terran was I saying ? Nice ranking though =) | ||

I hope Flash gets a fair chance to defend his position next month, and not get overtaken due to lack of play/play held back and worsened by his injury. Also, nice little tribute to Yellow with the #2 spot, he deserved that one.  | ||

He's probably the 3rd best ZvTer ever despite that (3rd highest vs T elo peak ever, this guy was a god of ZvT...). He deserved a gold more than anyone who hasn't one, and more than some who have. He should have been n°1 this month. But Flash tied Nada, and became the greatest progamer ever. This very month. Fucked up by terran was I saying ? Nice ranking though =) Have to disagree. If you lost, you lost. No ifs, buts, maybes, whatever. Those are just excuses. Yellow doesn't "deserve" a gold any more than other players who lost in the finals. Because he lost. And it's not like I don't know how you feel. My favorite player is Stork, and I make no excuses about any of his finals losses. You could say he lost to Jaedong, Flash, and Bisu at their peaks, and that perhaps goon range could've won that 5th game against Bisu. But the reality is that he still lost those matches. As for maps, Savior had bad maps against him. Scratch that, he had maps that were literally anti-zerg against him, and still won. Katrina was suppose to be PvT heaven where Stork is unstoppable, yet Flash beat him senseless on Katrina. In the end, if you are good enough, you will rise above the maps. As Yellow did not, he deserves this final #2 Ranking. Because despite all his success, he could not rise above #2. | ||

You can have lucky SL runs, even though they are rare. http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/korean/maps/98 is worse than anything sAviOr had to play on (and the only ZvT win was... YellOw...). Honestly, I've watched Coca Cola OSL final quite a few time and I'll say it. YellOw deserved to loose against Oov, Nada, even Xellos, but not against Boxer that day. He played better starcraft that dar, and he would have won if the 5th map had been Neo Jungle Story or Neo Legacy of Char. And BW history would have been completely changed. You're free to disagree, but that's how I feel. | ||

They just all got regamed. | ||

 firebathero. He has played some stellar games and even his losses have shown some great maturity on his part. His loss in particular against Best, for example, shows just how far he has come as a player, and considering he is regularly going up against opposing team Ace players (who, when playing vs. ACE, really only need to prepare for a vTerran threat unless ggaemo gets sent out) FBH is playing some excellent starcraft. | ||

This is pretty dumb: he may be the OSL winner, but that's the only meaningful thing he did ALL of June. His only two other wins are due to the caliber of his opponents, and he lost to every player that's considered A-level (Bogus is arguable). Now that he's going to be taking a break for probably most of July you would think there has to be more rationale for him to be number one. Posting his achievements list is a massive cop-out when he's clearly not the same Flash that won all those OSL/MSLs, and at the moment he will surely lose to Jaedong/Hydra/Bisu in a Bo5. Flash won't meet Bisu because he's getting seeded every SL except the recent 2, while Bisu can't pass the prelims + Show Spoiler + umad? | ||
