When Bisu won the MSL,even I said that Stork should retain the top spot,because he didn't play as many games. Well,now he did,and he is losing every second match he plays,and in his strongest MU! Bisu had a bad loss against Tazza,but he is much more solid in PL now than Stork,slaying every zerg player he can get his hands on,and winning an Ace match,while Stork only lost won. I don't care that Srotk was more dominant last month,this is this month,where Bisu is just more dominant than Stork. wait..bisu beats calm once and calm is bisu's bitch now? not true. but yeah stork definitely needs to step it up (though your transitive property doesn't work, you can't say bisu>calm>stork) | ||

Stork won an arguably harder OSL. Bisu won an arguably easier MSL, but won it only dropping like 3 games. Stork has been doing fine in GOM, and so has Bisu. Stork 2-0ed Nal_keke, Bisu 2-1ed Calm. Since Stork's OSL win, in Proleague he has gone 2-4 (beaten Sunny and Jaehoon, lost to Kal, Pusan, Calm, and + Show Spoiler + Movie (wtf) Since Bisu's MSL win, in Proleague he has gone 2-1 (beaten Calm and Yarnc, losing to Tazza (wtf)). Right now, there are really only two main differences. One, Stork has been racking up losses in PL, and Bisu's MSL was more recent. The combination of these two things should make Bisu #1 now IMHO. | ||

Stork has had an easy gom run, nothing in it has really suggested that his form is different to what his PL games have suggested- as in, still good, but sorta lacking in places. Lacking in enough places to get booted off to Bisu. | ||

Lacking in enough places to get booted off to Bisu. so basically, bisu hasn't done anything more impressive than stork besides having a better record in PL. it's not enough to overtake the spot yet, considering they are both doing well in GOM. they are too close at the moment, so let's leave it alone until the new osl/msl seasons start. okay? unless bisu keeps advancing in gom and winning pl matches, while stork drops out. that hasn't happened yet and stork losing a couple more pl games isn't sufficient to justify him losing the number one spot after winning one of the toughest osl titles. there will be plenty of chances for bisu to get it. it's premature to make any changes yet. | ||

I said that although I think Stork's OSL is much better than Bisu's MSL, Bisu _WILL_ take the #1 spot if he keeps it up while Stork continues dropping games in PL and others. Do you not understand that? How is that assuming Stork is the better player regardless of results? Here, I will lay it out nice and easy for you: 1) Previous achievement has always counted in the next month's, meaning: the player below has to do something greater OR the #1 player has to start under performing. 2) Stork's OSL > Bisu's MSL 3) Bisu will take #1 if he keeps playing the way he is, while Stork keeps getting the L's. So how many more games does Stork gotta lose? | ||

Guess what happened? I'm not saying Bisu *SHOULD* get the number one spot. I think he should, I think there is enough legitimacy for it. That doesn't mean it has to happen or its a miserable decision, or that it will happen. To just wave your hand away and say "nah" as if there is no legitimate argument, at this very moment, is stupid. | ||

You answered my question. no, it went from if he keeps dropping pl/other games to let's wait til he keeps dropping pl/other games (such as gom). and you forgot my other part that bisu has to clearly play better than him. if you were looking for a magical number of losses to bring stork down, then i can't help you, sorry. it's all relative. | ||

That doesn't mean it has to happen or its a miserable decision, or that it will happen. To just wave your hand away and say "nah" as if there is no legitimate argument, at this very moment, is stupid. first of all, i never denied that stork and bisu were neck and neck. only reason why i initially said stork should be above was that he had a tougher road in osl than bisu's msl. look, i do see a legitimate case for bisu being number one but i just don't think it's enough at the moment. i know i said a couple weeks ago that stork needs to slow down while bisu keeps it up, but is stork dropping couple games in pl really enough? i guess i never set a standard for what qualifies as "slowing down," but it's just not sufficient yet in my opinion. i never blew off your argument - i acknowledge there really is a valid argument for bisu taking the top spot. if stork dropped out of gom, for example, while bisu advanced through, then yeah bisu should definitely be number one. that didn't happen, and i am saying let's wait a little more before we make any further decisions. | ||
