Next week will tell us a lot about who's going to be #1 in March. Flash might lose against Leta/Best and bomb out of the MSL/OSL. Or he could advance in both and look stronger than ever in proleague.

Edit: Also, his all-important game with Best is on the same day as a KTF match against Estro. Please, KTF coaches, just once give him an off-day in proleague in advance.

Oh god, KTF coach had better not fuck this one up. I hope they can beat eSTRO without Flash. If they can't.. oh god. Imagine estro going up to 3-0 and then Flash all-killing, involving a few hour-long TvTs and TvPs.

But you can see,these games will be this month. Unfortunately the PR doesn't depend on what you see,but on what happens. Anyway,if he advances,he should be no1.

What Flash is doing these days is just insane. 9 wins in one week and all against top opponents. I can't even express how impressed I am. And he shows such a maturity in his interviews.

I think it's a pretty tough call between Bisu and Flash right now. I'd put the Revolutionist at #1 but hey, I'm biased. Luckily we have some more games to see from them before we make a decision.

It would more come down to how much you want to value Bisu winning the GSL. Flash has been putting out a lot more wins, but Bisu won a tournament. Since 2/2/09 (the date of this PR), Flash has gone 14-2 and Bisu has gone 6-3.

True, but you also have to consider the fact that Bisu beat Flash not too long ago in a Bo3 (in terms of placing one over the other). Leta-esque winning but no recent title doesn't deserve a #1 spot IMO, as shown by Leta's recent losses in the individual leagues. This is all my opinion obviously, but Leta could still prove me wrong and Bisu OR Flash could both fuck up majorly and lose the #1 spot potential. The way I think of it, TODAY Bisu is #1 for me. What happens tomorrow, in a week, or in two is anyone's guess.

I think that you have to take into account the insurmountable map imbalance in the GSL, making Bisu's victory more of a battle among the Protoss. Flash being an exception, of course.

Does winning a title not mean anything any more? Am I missing something here..

The PR is only about how good a player is playing at the time it is released. Winning titles are only a consequence of good play. The inverse is not always true. I don't think the title will factor into PR placement, but Bisu's performance during the finals will. Though it's unclear who's performed better so far (gameplay-wise, not titles).

Keep in mind a few things:
1. Flash had one of the best team league weeks ever if not THE best.
2. Flash is in both leagues and looks pretty good to advance to the Ro8 in both (no small feat).
3. Bisu would be eliminated from both starleagues if not for some luck (admittedly though with some skill as well).

That all said, I still think it's quite close, and the Bo3 win over Flash is significant for Bisu, though I think people have already forgotten how incredibly close every single game was (especially the last where 2 DTs completely saved Bisu's ass) and it was generally on Protoss favored maps.

How many games were lost by players of relatively equal skill BECAUSE of map imbalance? How many players tried to find ways to deal with map imbalance?

Well, definitely not Bisu, seeing how he played like total ass on Tears of the Moon and then even had the guts to blame that map for his second loss on totaly different map...

On the other hand, Flash and Katrina, that's totally diferent story...

The Bisu-Flash series was in the beginning of January, I don't see why you would factor that into a PR for February. Besides, it's not like you can look at that and go "Man, if those two played right now Bisu would rape the hell out of Flash!".
