The only reason I wouldn't put Flash #1, even with Jangbi's miraculous monster of an OSL run, would be the uncertainty in his recovery from surgery. IMO Power Ranking should be forward-looking, and as much as it pains me, we don't know if Flash will be Flash when and if he comes back.

Otherwise, solid list. I would've liked to see HoeJJa higher, given his status as the cornerstone of KT's Proleague victory. Certainly ahead of Killer, probably Jaedong as well. I wouldn't even take Stats over HoeJJa's current form, when even his losses make him look damn good.

Man I dunno why people keep using the fact that Bisu wasn't in that GF Ace match against him. I mean, I agree with his placing, but why was that the determining factor? If it ended at the fact that he's basically taking down lower-skilled players in a Bo1 that'd be fine.

Ah well. It's a fitting PR for the end of this year's season. Here's to hoping for a grand bon voyage to the MSL on October!

This was beautifully written. Your spoof on Jangbi and Jaedong was amazing.

People inevitably going to be mad about Bisu's position even though it's totally fair. So sure he's considered the best Proleague player but when it came to the most important game of Proleague he wasn't used. Sad really.

If it wasnt for the fact that I was so happy with Jangbi winning, I would say Flash beating BeSt twice in the finals was so epic, especially in the fashion he did it in and with a physical injury.


BeSt is like Kespa rank 46. It wasn't epic it was just to be expected. BeSt was NEVER going to beat him on Fortress for a start. So he beat him a few times before in far less important matches... doesn't mean anything when you get to a final. Was a mistake to send him against Flash, especially twice.

So bittersweet to see the PR!

Bitter that I now have to dig through the Featured News to find the Power Rank section...

Sweet that my Protoss hero Jangbi is at #1.

Thank you for the write up! Keep this coming till 2052!!

This is going to be an epic troll but...

Maybe Fantasy threw game 5 because SC needed some new life and having Jangbi win instead of the crown prince makes a better story. Fantasy sat on a trust fund for most of game 5 and threw away a huge food count lead. I only watched the game twice so I didn't fully analyze or anything but stuff like not even having 1 tank sieged at home for the goon counter attack?

KeSPA pulling a Savior perhaps?

Just some food for thought.


Kespa pulling a Savior?
You have to be trolling.
Kespa is more catholic than the Pope. Actually, Kespa is more catholic than the Spanish inquisition. An organization upholding such high moral standards to be involved in that.. I don't think so.
They were disqualifying players for not gg-ing properly, that is the height of their moral standards.

Great writeup. Loved the Jaedong / Federer parallel. Sad to see both of them not quite what they used to be.

You can't honestly believe JangBi is better than Flash. At the end of the day the Power Rank is just who is stronger on a given day in a given game. Who is better at brood war. Who, if they played, would win more. That is undoubtably Flash. He's simply better. JangBi was barely able to beat a terrible Fantasy. Flash is Flash.


Last i checked, Flash currently lacks a functioning right arm. He probably doesn't even belong on the power rank this month, and i say that as a Flash fanboy.


flash could probably beat hoejja single-handedly though

hoejja is flash's main sparring partner :o dont count on it

I too, hope that you are wrong about Jaedong.

I like Hydra, and I think he'll be something special

but I want JD to win more titles just so he can distance himself a little bit further before future zergies challenge that feat.

Effort is back and after all these time in training, I think Effort will successfully grind up to the top and reign as a new chapter after Yellow, July, sAviOr and unfortunately JD too as the number 1 Zerg. Maybe TBLS will get replaced by Effort and JangBi + 2 other guys (probably Fantasy and someone else).

Isn't it kind of a contradiction to say JangBi beat Fantasy in "highly convincing fashion" and then go on to say that Fantasy pushed JangBi to his absolute limit?

Otherwise it's a decent PR I guess, considering the lack of games & Flash's wrist/arm condition.
