Well its a bit outdated .... By.hero and Nada should drop out due to inactivity and have someone else replace them like Zero /Leta . Flash should move up , JangBi should drop out , Luxury should move down and thats about it .

I wouldn't be abject to swapping Bisu and Jaedong, either, considering the general performance of both. I'm a bigger JD fan but he was doing pretty badly directly after the OSL title (Even given horrible map match ups, he still was losing to no names). Also wouldn't be peeved if he stayed #1.

Don't you think Jaedong should move down? Also I thought Flash lost a few games.

If it were up to me Luxury and Jangbi would be CBNC this month

Jangbi doesnt even deserve CNBC in my book.

Losing a few games doesn't really mean much compared to how terrible some people have been doing.

Some records since last PR:

Skyhigh 6-2
Jaedong 7-5
Bisu 7-1 (lost to great's proxy hatch on medusa)
Fantasy 6-1
Great 8-4
Flash 7-3
Leta 7-5
Calm 8-3
Zero 11-2

These all look pretty good compared to records like these:

Stork 4-4
Jangbi 2-7
Luxury 3-5 (2 wins being over a CJ B-teamer in ZvZ)
Nada 1-4
Light 3-5

I don't think putting Flash at 4 or 5 would be unwarranted, Bisu should be #1 though in my opinion and Fantasy #2.

Give it a week though and I could see Jaedong holding his 1st place spot. He's got some redeeming to do for his midapril slump he always gets.

Why should Bisu be above Fantasy? I see no reason.

Bisu was ranked above Fantasy last power rank, and nothing has happened since to differentiate them. That said, I think Bisu and Fantasy are interchangable in terms of goodness right now.

Well, I could see it going either way but I don't see much of a compelling reason to put Fantasy above Bisu either so I just figured it would make sense to leave him in the higher position.

If we're basing the next power rank off of what has happened so far since the last one, then
+ Show Spoiler +

Bisu winning today and Fantasy losing puts Bisu at the top

.

Also maybe you should mention Leta's 7-5 is really more of an 8-4 due to the pp DQ. And I think Jaedong's 7-5 just doesn't look that good when stacked next to those other top performers, especially considering the people he lost to.

Yeah, following today, Bisu needs to be above Fantasy. Bisu has only lost to Great's proxy hatchery gayness since the last rank (I think). Fantasy has lost to both Hogil and Calm. Thats enough to have Bisu at least stay above Fantasy.

POSSIBLE SPOILERS FOR TODAYS MATCHES

I dont know about you, but i dont see Bisu playing insanely well. His play is damn strong, but he could have lost at least 2 more games, but his opponents were so surprised that they have a tremendous advantage over Beesuit that they eventually threw the game away (Backho, Shuttle). + As it was said in the interview after his loss vs Great, they prepared against proxy hatch, and this was not the first time it was used on the pro scene, so that's an entirely legitime loss for Bisu.
Fantasy? I dont see him playing that well either, his bio fails every time, he beat JD since the last PR, but that's all, barely, barely overcome Anytime, and raped some lesser players (frozean, zergbong, everyone is joking with their names etc).
JD had a bad april month, but he's back again and during his "minislump" nothing crucial happened. He's in all of the Leauges, OZ is still first. I don't think he should be dropped just because another player or two done better in the PL. Fantasy right now just cannot be first, he's on 2 game losing streak ffs.

some zergs who done really well in the past month: Zero, Effort, Calm
