Its scary how much I...disagree with everything on this power rank. The only placements I can remotely agree with are Kal, Jaedong, and FORGG. Flash is playing too bad for 3, Julys zvt is too untested for 4, Leta has done nothing but proleague, and despite the good games, I doubt he deserves six, best took a massive drop despite his only failings to be a in a pvz that we all knew he was weak in, against july who we all knew was strong in that particular match up to an absurd degree, and Midas and Iris, while playing good- more midas than Iris- I'm not entirely convinced are quite the right choices. Though, the very bottom of the power rank hardly concerns me, so I suppose I'll let them be, but in general just...wow, I cant believe how disagree able this power rank is. It's so outrageous, I'm not even going to debate it any further.

Edit: You know what, under further consideration [its 2:30 and yes I am lazy enough not to rewrite my entire post, but just leave it there] I don't disagree with everything. There are a lot of people teetering on worthiness of the bottom of the power rank, and I suppose Iris/Midas are just as justifiable as anyone else who has had a good run. Likewise, despite the fact that I think Flash should be lower-ordinarily, there is simply no one to fill in the gap, so he stays due to the fact that we have had a slow month, and nothing can prove otherwise definitively. Leta's games have been amazing though, but I still disagree with such a high placement, and Best's being so low [despite my hatred of him] I also disagree with the lux/july order [despite my lover of July], but hey. So no, not that bad of a power rank, wacky but...well we have had a slow inconsistent month, what can be said.


hahahah

yeah, from your edit i can see you understand what an odd month July was

Give us your power rank then douchebag.

Edit: Your are no longer a douchebag since ur edit


tactfully disagreeing with the power rank and providing what are, in your mind, the appropriate alternatives is completely acceptable

calling someone a douchebag out of nowhere isn't, so consider this a warning -_-

Leta is a bit to high , i saw his games vs JD in the offlines for the OSL wasn't impress i think his TvZ is weak but that just might be JD raping him don't know ... but fucking six for just PL games .
This and that i think Mind should be # 10 just for killing JangBI + noob in WCG korea, but i'm a bit biased with Mind .

Hum i still dont see anything new from Leta but we'll see

Also iris? really i haven't seen him play like a televised match in more or less a year? of course i dont watch religiously and hell the last iris liquid bet before the current one was a long time ago. Ionno about Forgg being on top his games vs flash, jaedong etc didn't sit right with me hes a good player but i just don't see him number one more like jaedong, forgg then flash i feel flash is losing parts of his greatness.

Also i would consider Lux to be a better vote in a game over julyzerg more or less anytime. Frankly july has always been an oddity to me he does well for bursts of times then falls apart only once i've seen his longer dominance.

I wouldn't necessarily disagree with most of the players choices except a few cough leta 6 really? but just the rank placement.

Also sea 1 to close but no cigar a friend had something to say about it
"i hate steve so bad because i knew he was gonna do this... sea being 1st in the PR one month, next month, bam, close but no cigar for sea"
I have ass for brains so,
even when I shit I'm droping knowledge.

This is a very good PR. There could be an argument for putting Best or Best+Kal above Leta, but the rest is spot on.

Good job.

Weirdest looking power rank in a while. Out of nowhere number 1, two players who seem to be teetering towards greatness but aren't quite there yet, an oldie, and then an odd jumble of last month's players and "where the crap did he come froms?"

Surprised Lomo didn't get a close but no cigar though. He did take Flash to 5 games and given that he wasn't looking like a monster like ForGG was, that's about as good as can reasonably be expected.

Hmmm...I was prepared to make an all-in arguement for backho but then I looked over his TLPD and realized he wasn't winning as much as I thought he was. There is potential in him, I can feel it.


Maybe you could have replaced Midas with Stork . He's won his last four games and is also on his way to a comeback.

Completely forgot about Lomo. This itself is the reason he is not even in cnbc. He has been invisible since his 2-3 loss to Flash.

IMHO, (P)Kal doesn't deserve his spot. After his defeat from non-pro (T)BByong, he should be put away from power rank.

I almost fully agree with PR this time

I only have little concerns with Leta, but I haven't observed his games as much as you did. So all good.

EDIT: But why is Iris at #8 and Lomo out? He beat the shit out of Iris couple of weeks ago.

Hate to say it, but I don't think Flash deserves #3. Maybe 4 or 5, but not 3. Then again, I wouldn't know how the hell to justify what I'm saying. Next month, after Flash mutilates Jaedong's withered, overnuked shell of a body in the GSI, he's gonna be #1, right?

Oh and, has anyone else noticed that, from the first PR, each month's has gotten progressively longer?

edit: good pr =P

He is not going to be number #1 he is going to be # 2 , because ForGG is still playing great . He has to lose to someone to be removed from the number # 1 position . And i don't think that Flash is going to deliver a spanking of ForGG's level but we will see .
