Why bisu above fantasy?

In the month of march Fantasy was 7-3 70 percent. 3 of those against bisu and 2 against luxury.

And two against Jaedong by that matter.

I'm interested to see the Bisu > Fantasy logic and how he justifies Flash/Stork/by.hero over sKyHigh.

That being said, looking forward to the next PR along with statements!

FS has said before that the best PR's are the ones that generate the most discussion....he wants us to argue about it.

You mean that one in the Bisu match where he still 3-0ed him?

all I'm saying is that saying someone only dropped a league match cause they made a n00b mistake is not a good reason to discredit the result. if it's like, oh, they only dropped the league cause they were hit by a car and couldn't play, that doesn't reflect poorly on them, but forgetting to get your factory finished and losing because of it reflects pretty poorly on one's play.

The whole point of the Power Rank is to flame FakeSteve. Flames sustain the Power Rank, they make it stronger. He could make a nice perfect rank, and everybody would come by and agree and say what a correct ranking it was, but where would the fun in that be?

With that said

Bisu OVER Fantasy?!?!

That is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Bisu Didn't DO ANYTHING worthy of maintaining a spot over Fantasy DESPITE LOSING 0-3. Head to head is the most important consideration of PR, and Bisu doesn't have anything else to show this month that Fantasy doesn't (all-star games really shouldn't count)

I also can't really see putting Flash above Stork.

I am one of those that believe Fantasy > Bisu. Also, Skyhigh does not deserve to be top 10. Take a look at the players he has defeated -> the only decent one is Jaedong. Also, by.hero should be a little bit higher and Flash should be a little bit lower. I would place Hwasin in number 9, instead of Skyhigh.

I think putting Luxury over Fantasy is wrong too. But Steve said he is sure in his job adn I really wait for his arguments,I think it will be fun.

yea, that's a good point, losing to by.hero in OSL and going 0-2 in special matches is WAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY better than reverse all killing in the Winner's League finals[/sarcasm]

I also must've missed when HiYa became worse than a decent player, I guess 17-9 in the Winner's League means nothing. -_-

This was a slow month, I honestly thinking 9 is really low for sKyHigh considering he was one of only 4 players who showed up to play in important matches this month (the others being JD, Lux and Fantasy if you've been in a coma for March).

Just says Power Rank to me =/

Also, monthly implies once a month, not at the beginning of every month, and if you've been following the power rank for more than 3 months, you know that it's usually released 10 days into the month.

You should check the last 3 month befor you make allusion to it. They came out on the 4th, 2nd and 16th of the respcetive months. Even FakeSteve promised this to come out on 4th/5th (weekned )no matter what

HI DUDES

PR coming this weekend! I've got a night of drinking ahead of me and a hellacious week at work come Monday. StarCraft is, as always, my little hermit world where I retreat when I need to feel infallible. In life, I'm just a regular jackoff. In StarCraft, I'M FAKESTEVE. BOW DOWN.

It should be no surprise who #1 is, in fact the top 5 seem pretty clear-cut. It's been a simple month without much in the way of ambiguous, convoluted results and gameplay. The winners are clear, the losers even clearer.

Cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeers, it's Friday night


and here we are, 9th of april

"You should check the last 3 month befor you make allusion to it. They came out on the 4th, 2nd and 16th of the respcetive months."

That's exactly why I said last 3, the last two have uncharacteristically come out near the beginning of the month, so if you've followed the PR for at least three months, then you've followed it during the VERY long period where it came out during the middle of the month.

"Even FakeSteve promised this to come out on 4th/5th (weekned )no matter what"
My point has nothing to do with if FS keeps his promise, it deals with the incorrect idea that people except the PR to come out at the beginning of the month before FS said anything.

I still want to know why in website full of people who would be not only willing, but honored to do the Power Rank, why it's stuck with the one person who's is inevitably and irretrievably late.
