Flash is still the best by far it is just fatigue that is getting to him. (Look at his loss vs free and try telling me I am wrong) | ||

Guess my prediction with him taking a beating to the first strong zerg comes true... After all, his opponent were 2nd or 3 rd class opponents. Plus he took a beat on Katrina, protoss heaven... Lucifer for PR! | ||

Actually Flash would be lucky if he stays in top 3 with luxury / best and JD /Hwasin out there .Of course the series with Lomo is the bigest thing that could lower Flash in the PR .Lomo has a chance to skyrocked up the PR next month if he beats Flash and if it is a good series thought he has proven to me that he is a good TvTer and his strategys are really good efective and entertaining (TvZ) .Nada Mind Kal and Pure may get out of the PR with all the new talent that is shown in MSL/OSL and Lecaf  . | ||

Why not, Jaedong can have the 4'th spot under Hwasin, Flash, and Hwasin. If he gets raped in the series he will probably get 5'th under Much but if he plays well then he will be 4'th imo. Much is just not as strong a player as Jaedong atm. You say he has been beating Zergs and bad terrans lately. That is true but don't forget that Jaedong would demolish any Protoss at this moment. Here is how the PR will look based on series outcomes. (considering the PR will be after the Flash/Lomo series on July 4) Jaedong beats Hwasin, Luxury beats Best, Flash beats Lomo ----> Luxury moves into top spot over either Hwasin, Best or both (possibly 5'th spot if the games are uninspiring). Flash 1, JD 2. Hwasin > JD, Lux > Best, Flash > Lomo. Flash 1, Hwasin 2, Best/Lux 3/4, JD 5. JD > Hwasin, Best > Lux, Flash > Lomo. Flash1, JD/Best 2/3 depends on who played better but advantage is toward JD. Much 4. JD > Hwasin, Lux > Best, Lomo > Flash. JD/Flash 1/2 again depending on game quality but in this case Flash for 1st is highly unlikely. Lux 3, Much 4, Lomo/Hwasin 5/6 possibly. Hwasin > JD, Best > Lux, Flash > Lomo. Flash 1, Best 2, Hwasin 3, JD/Much 4/5 depending on how well JD plays. Hwasin > JD, Best > Lux, Lomo > Flash. Best 1, Hwasin 2, Flash 3. The only way best can get 1'st is if Flash AND Jaedong loose their series. | ||

I thought PR Rank was all about who is the most dominant player in the starcraft scene at the moment..not about how they've been doing from the last 3 or 4 games? If so, Jaedong/ Flash have been shaky at the moment but they've had their share of dominance lately to hold their top two spots for a while...a few games that they lose isn't going to make a difference. Just because they're in their prime does not mean they can win every single game Yes, Jaedong has been losing to lots of terrans lately and if he loses to hwasin in BO5, I agree that he is falling but he still remains the dominant player of this starcraft time. If we follow your logic, then Flash shouldn't keep his number 1 spot. Because your argument is based on current matchup results and Flash has been losing games here and there, and even let Luxury knock him off of OSL. Even though i admit I'm biased toward JD, I can totally see that from the logic and tone of your post that you are biased toward Flash | ||

But, what do i know.... lucifer got raped by kwanro too. so yeah what do you know? and lucifer is like 0-5 or 0-6 in all of his recent games. lucifer sucks stop sucking his dick. the old katrina statement is so false now after zergs learning out how to play on it and the flash build. | ||

So 1- Flash 2- Jaedong until now. If Flash lose to Lomo, there will be 1- JD, 2- Flash. If Lux beats Best, Lux will take 3rd, but if Best beats Lux, there will be a tough one for FS... What about if Lucifer beats Flash? Does that mean Flsh will be 2nd and Lucifer in PR? | ||
