Much is so odd, hes hot one month, going far, slips just a bit- still a great player, contender for 10th, 11th, etc, and then the next month hes back to good old much. He's being doing this since like...the GSI?

Well, you don't have to win anything to be second place, right?

He's doing well. He took out ForGG and Much, and he looked great when he did it. Especially his PvP v.s Much. But his list of opponents in the OSL honestly weren't in the same class of skill that he was. Pure and simple.

I have pretty big hopes for Stork this season, but 2nd place is a stretch.

there is no 2nd place that is out of Stork's reach.

I'm just going to throw Bisu's name out there for CBNC since he has had a decent month qualifying for both leagues. Being able to take a bo3 from Iris when hes in decent form is an acheivment.

Yes, let there be no mistake about this. The way Iris played in August, Bisu taking him down 2-1 is a pretty big deal.

I got to say that Stork DESERVES a spot in the PR next week. so does bisu again.

also i HAVE to see Leta in like top5 in the next one. I bet Zerg will take 1 and 2. Leta will maybe 3. Then Stork

Leta plays really strong. top 5 defo
+ Show Spoiler +

just watched his game vs Sea recently. Tho Sea defended really well and almost came back, Letas TvT just blew it. How he took advantage of Seas slightly wrong placed tanks and sniped couple from range including nice wraith micro at the start. That was epic.

Rankings will really depend on how indipendt the power rank is I would make the argument that Forgg and possibly Flash (although I don't thinks so) don't deserve a spot if you don't count previous form. Both went out in the Ro8 WCG and Forgg didn't qualify for the OSL flash did but he only has half the games to play. Flash got owned in the GOM finals. Forgg didn't play anyother games (didn't check that)

I love Stork but I dunno if he's a number 2. He's definitely top 10 in August. Of course, now that I think about it, I'm not sure I can name anyone other than Jaedong that looked better in August. Flash looked terrible in GOM, maybe he looked better in quals, though. Hard to say fOrGG or Luxury is better when Stork beat them both in August. I do think Flash would beat Stork in a bo3 or bo5 if it was held today, but maybe Stork would win that if it wasn't a finals. Flash did have a much tougher road in qualifying for the OSL (had to beat EffOrt). Then again, in WCG Korea, he got demolished by Much, who got demolished by Stork. As long as Stork is somewhere in the new PR I won't accuse FakeSteve of being in denial.
