I do sense some bias (it's OK that stork lost to two 5-pools but not okay if bisu loses to 5pool/all-in hydra?) I mean, yes it's considered Bisu's best matchup but I don't think a few losses should drop him that much yet similar (although not as many) occurences don't drop stork at all.

much is good , but #4 is the peak for him ... he's more like the reach/anytime toss-school - solid but boring builds. we need an entertaining and creative style of playing such as rA/Bisu and i think you can say Kal, but he has nothing to be side by side with the other two guys but a badge from the msl will make the difference

This month is super controversial due to fanboyism

but steve

i think you nailed it,
id argue that lux and flash could be flipped; but there no evidence either way imo

great PR

Thanks for the PR Fakesteve. However the only thing i would change is putting Much in 3rd place instead of Mind.
Also its sad that Sea and Savior had to leave PR T_T

Two things I'd like corrected:

1) Mind is ridiculously high. Sure thing, he won an MSL, but that's it.
2) Much is also somewhat overrated here, he is solid, but ain't done any serious shit lately. Anytime has been a much more serious contender lately and his loss vs Nada can't be viewed as his skill indicator given their history. It's a long time rivalry, you kind of expect the games to be unusual. Other that that, Anytime has been raping lately, and even though I don't argue his position in the PR, I fail to see how Much is SO much higher than him.

Otherwise, this is pretty much how I feel.

I have to say that I am a bit of a Bisu fanboy, so I hate him sitting at 7 - but on the other hand, that gives him all the more the chance to say "FU PR!" and bounce back during February. New entrants are maybe no big surprise (Kal and Lux), but both are well-placed: Luxury has definitely shown more consistancy in the past and deserves the 6th spot.

Stork, Mind, and Much did not have a choice but to rise, as nobody could be said to play less consistant than they did before - they are doing what they are good at, that is dominating OSL groups for the Protoss, going through the MSL bracket for the Terran. Although Stork losing in MSL Offlines is NOT a good sign. But who else for #2?

What I am maybe unhappy with is Anytime rising to 9. A month ago I might have agreed with it, but as of lately, with basically giving away the series against Nada? It would have been accurate to keep him if he had been there already, but rising looks like the wrong tendency.

I dont know if someone mentioned it, but seven out of ten of the progamers are at their peak at the powerrank right now (not Bisu, Light or Anytime)

Yeah, he hasn't really shown us anything fantastic apart from dismantling Bisu yet, and so far his opponents in the MSL have been very low-calibre. I think he's just that high because while he hasn't really done anything great since the MSL win, there is nothing to suggest he's not capable of giving absolutely everyone a hard time and wouldn't be the favourite against anyone but the very best. And as much as I hate the guy (I really, really do), he's consistent, moreso than Mr. Fuck-up-Offline-Prelims, and has yet to lose a game that matters. Looking at the competition for spot 3, there's just no one for whom a stronger argument can be made.

But God, I'm really, really, really hoping he's going to crash and burn against Jaedong or Flash in the MSL. *crosses fingers*

would u put bisu as a favorite over any of the people above him besides lux? i wouldnt at his current state. and thats why bisu is so low on this months PR.

and bisu's pvp or pvt is nowhere near storks.... how could u take him as a favorite over stork when all these maps love protoss so much? we all so what happens when stork plays his strong matchups in an important match (i do believe semifinals in ever osl is important) where he handed out a 3-0 whoopin on bisu.

the last time i can think of where storks p v t lacked was back when he lost to iris p v t to pure double facs but he seems to havei mproved. what would really be interesting is stork vs mind.

This random Jangbi hate will come back to haunt you when he obliterates Jaedong in the finals!

Nah, but nice PR, the only thing I'd switch is mind <-> much and Light <-> upmagic, but they are all kinda close so...

Err, I'd put Luxury over Bisu in a heartbeat judging by their current forms.

Thanks, you just saved me a lot of money FakeSteve (can I call you baby?). I will be watching as you keep putting my star higher and higher.

I have to say that it's obvious that you are very unbiased personally in your predictions even though you're not always "right", but no one ever is. I liked this one the best so far even though I was surprised at Mind's position (i hope NaDa will demolish him and show who's the boss at FOX), and missed a CBNC for Best.

That must be why Lux decided his best chance of winning was 5 pooling and praying Bisu scouted wrong.

I'd put Stork as a very small favorite over him, a coin flip against Jaedong or Much, and a favorite over everyone else on the list, personally. His brutal domination of the tiebreakers should go a long way to restoring his confidence, which looks to me to have been the main thing lacking lately.
