He might get a lower spot but getting knocked out in the prelims is kind of damaging to your status as "top ten" player on the scene. Calm isn't out of the MSL. He plays the winner of Sair/go.go tonight and if he wins, he's in. | ||

That's for OSL though, he did get booted from MSL by Hogil I think in the offline qualifiers... | ||

Someone said PR would be "boring" if they saw those 3 titans on top 3 for a year, but I disagree This is going to be a little... exaggerated, but I need to do it to make my point. What if Jaedong somehow got DQ'd out of the OSL back in the Ro16? What if his team also didn't make the WL playoffs because Hiya wasn't there to pick up some slack? In the real world, Jaedong went into beast mode and won a lot of shit. In this pretend world, Jaedong wouldn't have played a single game during the time span that this current PR covers. How do you rank someone on playing ability when you have no idea how well they played in a month? Would he still be ranked #1? Would he still even be in the top 3? In a perfect world we always know how good a player is, but in reality we can only base this on games which are broadcast. Due to this, PR must be somewhat based on monthly performance. The only way you could fairly justify Jaedong being highly ranked after that would be if you had access to practice games, in which I would wonder why you're not sharing them with the replay section. | ||

Bisu looks unbeatable once again, he's can hardly be beaten in PL when he can prepare for the opponent on one specific map, his stats are great. He should be the only protoss on the list. Lux sucks way too hard right now. By.hero never plays, same for Nada. Calm, zero, fantasy, flash, leta, effort are all should be there, they are interchangeable. Maybe also Iris, but he never plays. | ||

Jaedong played like Jaedong, and Doctor.K and Ganzi played like Doctor.K and Ganzi. | ||

The "to be fair" comment suggests that those games should not be counted as normal wins, since they are lower quality opponents, but that's not a good way to look at the skill level. Winning against Doctor.K or Ganzi isn't something that should make someone go "OMG THIS IS THE BEST PLAYER EVER, HE BEAT BOTH DOCTOR.K AND GANZI!" I think that was the point he was making. | ||

Obviously then, the guy that responded to azure's intent was closer to my previous post. Whatever, this is irrelevant to the PR. | ||
