That's just a thinly disguised trolling attempt. The bias in the poll options is simply absurd.

Stork for no 1 and Jangbi in PR..thats my bet

Edit: I forgot my little protegee Free, who should be higher than Jangbi.

So: Stork for godness in PvP and PvT
Free for being really good
Jangbi, the new PvZ monster along with his PvT

Edit 2: FBH in PR for higher place too, he plays best PvT in pro scene right now, its amazing. Is good for him when Stork and Jangbi are pulling their shit back coz now he have good sparring partners :D

Final edit; i hope Reach would do the same and win a league for meeeeeee. Yellow too

how so? i'm stating exactly what happens each month - the PR is released at some random time, taking into account factors different from previous PRs (for example, one PR (say the January one) could take into account the 3rd quarter of January and the first three quarters in February if it wasn't released until February 25th, then February's PR which is released on March 5 may be based on the first three quarters of February (already taken into account for the January PR) and the first quarter in March.

If it was released on the first of each month, then it would take into account the same period as previous months' PRs, rather than having some of this months and some of next month's.

I will make my power rank right now. I have really been only covering starleagues mostly and not proleague that much yet.

1. Stork- No doubt

2. Bisu- Yes I am a huge fanboy of his, but hear me out. He is the only person to make the ro8 in both leagues besides Stork. In the OSL he made it through his group of death and got knocked by Stork 2-1. Game 3 was so close. He is playing so well beating Devil 2-0 in GOM, taking out his Hwasinsurance policy 2-0 and going 3-0 in proleague to start the year, despite having the damn chickenpox lol. I believe Bisu is 9-2 in bo5 series (losing only to Mind in gom3 final and Flash in Bacchus OSL) and thats all he will be playing the rest of the MSL.

3. BeSt- He lost the big series to Stork 3-1 in his BeSt matchup. He still looked great in the rest of the OSL and started with a crazy good 8-2 record in proleague. However, Best wont get ranked any higher than this if he keeps failing to win the big series. You can't blame him for losing to Stork, but he shouldnt be rewarded.

4. Fantasy- Alright I think everyone can agree that this guy proved that he is for real with his performance last night and against GGplay. He reminds me so much of a Boxer Jr. in play style as well as looks. He is a pretty good 5-3 in proleague. (Ok how is Bisu 3-0, Best 8-2, and Fantasy 5-3, but T1 keeps losing seriously wtf damn zergs) I think this kid is only going to get better.

5. Jaedong- You are still a great player I think. But the guy who is supposed to have this godlike zvp should not be losing to Han or Free even if it is bo3 instead of bo5. You are still a pretty god 5-3 in MSL. Your fans want you to prove yourself in GOM and by qualifying for the next OSL and MSL. 5 is a good spot for Jaedong, cuz he can move up if he shows he is back to his great form, or down if he shows he is in a slump and keeps failing to show results.

6. Jangbi- 9-1 in your last ten games check. Going 7-0 in the MSL to reach the semifinals check. Yeah Jangbi is on fire right now. He should've played safer against Light, so he didnt get cheesed out of OSL. Yeah I think Jangbi has improved his pvz a lot and even his pvp quite a bit to go along with his pvt. I like his chances to get revenge against Kal for Stork as well as Jangbi losing to Kal in the GOM 4 semis.

7. Free- He definitly deserves this after carrying Stars and going 7-2 in proleague. He is also beat this Jaedong guy who is apparently really good to make ro8 in MSL. He is definitly a favorite over Nada. His pvt looks good after beating good players like Sea, Ruby, and FBH in proleague this season.

8. FBH- His pvt seems to have improved a bit. He is 3-3 in proleague. He really made Tempest look like a complete noob in their games. I think Bisu is going to roll him, but we shall see.

9. Kal- I am not sure what the Stork series is supposed to tell me. You beat him in 5 games, but how hard was he preparing? The Iris serious didnt look good, lets just be honest. 4-4 in proleague is decent. I guess he is an MSL semifinalist, so he gets a low spot.

10- Flash- You sucked it up in both leagues, but you are 8-3 in proleague. Sounds like something Sea would do and he would be given a spot for sure, so you will get the bottom spot. In all seriousness, Gom and the next 2 leagues are very important. You were playing so great but if GOM and the next OSL and MSL go bad you are going to be considered a fluke build as opposed to just slumping.

CBNC

The DESTROYER- I believe the GOM final and next OSL and MSL finals will be held sometime in 2009?

ForGG- doing decent still, but not power rank material

Hwasin- I dont know how the fuck you got ranked last month, but you are doing very poor now

GGPlay- Fantasy destroyed you and you went 0-2 in proleague. The move back to Starts might help, but CJ was a failure for you.

Leta- 6-2 in proleague is decent, but just not good enough for power rank

Yeah, so I think 2-5 can be switched, but I am not sure. I really think Bisu is the second best player right now. Jaedong and Flash need to start sliding down, the last relevant things they did were a couple months ago. Comments and even kind arguements/disagreements are encouraged.
