If Bisu was better than Jaedong at a certain day, then wouldn't he also be better than him the day before? It's the heaps argument.
Also, people including fans of Bisu were content that Jaedong was the canidate for number one before yesterday's match.

Here's how we fix this.
Jaedong seems to be doing better overall then Bisu.
Bisu DID beat Jaedong yesterday, but their total record is 7-6 in favor of Jaedong.
And according to Bisu, he rarely wins in practice games vs Jaedong.

Jaedong is better. I'm not a fanboy, but at this point in time, Jaedong is better.

You know, according to Bisu, he doesn't practice with Jaedong, and those practice games he was referring to were around a year ago, when Bisu first joined SKT1?

Bisu it's first on PR, that's clear. JD is the better player in my opinion, but that's not important right now

Or you can simply look at what happened within the last month to determine power rank, because that's usually how it is. I could care less if Bisu destroyed Jaedong on Andromeda 8-9 months ago with Sair/Reaver, or if Jaedong crushed Bisu a few months back in that GOM Classic.

Plus, who gives a shit who wins in practice games? Bisu can suck it up all he wants vs Jaedong in practice, but when it comes down to televised games, if he wins, then all that practice means absolutely shit.

At the end of the day, Bisu won last night vs Jaedong. And even if it was on a bullshit map called Heartbreak Ridge, in the end it still records as a W for Bisu. If they'd battled on God's Garden and Jaedong won, it'd still be a W for Jaedong and a L for Bisu.

At the end of the day, it's all about whether or not you can grab that W. If you can't, well good luck next time.
God Bless

What exactly makes Jaedong better?

BTW I just wanted to check... at this time... are you a fanboy of Jaedong? At this point in time.

It's an opinion. You don't have to go after everyone who's opinion doesn't match yours. Though that one is a bit awkward, I'll admit. Just saying to everyone (including JD fans), there's no need to get angry at an opinion, since we all know what the PR is probably going to look like.

The 2 OSLs.

Flash is my favorite player but hell neither he nor Bisu has done what Jaedong has. 2 OSLs in this hyper competitive time is absolutely insane. Only Bonjwas, Garimto, and July have done as well.

2 OSL's + 1 MSL > 3 MSL's easily

Not to mention, Jaedong overall career W-L ratio dominates Bisu's. Nobody touches him in this field unless someone corrects me. His achievement record is alot more decorated than Bisu's as well. Call me a fanboy, I could care less, but fact is a fact.

He also has more PL wins than anyone else.

But anyway we all agree that Bisu deserves #1 on the PR THIS month, does this make him clearly the better player overall? No, both are equal.

yeah, you got it.

i mean even with this latest game it wouldn't be crazy to put jaedong at #1, just as it wouldn't have been crazy to put bisu at #1 before it.

This was just 1 game, it doesn't mean anything. If you know the game you could see that both players played rediculously good.
Bisu played better that game, it doesn't mean that he would play better that day or the day after or the day before.

Watch their recent Bo5 and you will understand.

One game bisu looked simply untouchable, the second game he was completely raped by jaedong and it went on like that.
According to Reach, he is the fastest learner he has ever seen. He start bw only like 2/3 years ago. Infact, his bw history knowledge is so limited, he didn't even know what the map Guillotine was.

The New York Yankees won 26 World Series.
The New York Yankees have more famous players.
In 2004, the Boston Red Sox won their sixth World Series, and DID beat the Yankees.

Clearly, in 2004, the New York Yankees were better than the Boston Red Sox.

...

In other words, your argument makes no sense whatsoever.

I don't think there's anyone who would say otherwise. But It's more of a tiebreaker in this case.

This wouldnt had happen if the PR actually comes in 1 of june, its the same story avery month and PR. (T)Last mont, (P)Bisu, obviously was inferior to JD. But in june, (P)Bisu take the first spot by winning directly. Next time the PR should come on 1 of the month or we have ridiculously results, like when (T)Leta was 6h ot 7th but he had 17-4 or so, or (T)Last PR when (Z)EffOrt had best results than people above him, or this month when (P)Violet is tearing apart everyone going 14-1 in his (T)Last 15 games.

It is really pathetic that this site can't have a power rank which comes out regularly, given its the myriad other features. There are dozens of people who could and would would write a good power rank the 1st of ever month.

You guys do realize that JWD is slowly trying to move the PR back to coming out on the 1st of the month right? He didn't want to release it on the 1st this month because that would only cover a 15 day period since this PR came out, which is why this month he said it would come out on the 10th. So stop bitching about the PR not coming out on the first of the month this time.

Edit: Changed wording

Yeah but Nada is overall the best player of all time even if he's been passed up by new talent, runner up goes to July.

JD's got 2 OSLs in a climate that surpasses all the previous great's level of skill. And a MSL for good measure! I mean hell Bisu hasn't even made an OSL final yet. Maybe the MSL is just his show and that takes away from his OSLs, but he's not even as accomplished as Fantasy in regards to the OSL.
