Not entirely true, but stuff that happened last month is definitely more important than two months ago.

Btw what happened with the project of pushing the PR release date closer to the beginning of the month?

It's the 11th already. (forum time)

It comes when it comes. Its just the Power Rank, not that important.

Sorry, I meant the 10th my time (PDT). And yes, the PR is imminent. Keep in mind that last month's was published on the 15th, so I am sticking to my promise of pushing the release date closer to the first.

Also consider that several huge (HUGE) games were played last night that, if not included in the rank, would make it pretty freaking boring (not that many games have been played since last rank, since offlines and MST are done but OSL Ro16 and MSL haven't started yet).

Thanks for your patience!

Yeah the only complicated thing about today really is that Kal deserves a spot. The top 3 are still obvious, even with Bisu dropping a game, and we all know Leta-Flash-Skyhigh-Fantasy are getting spots, along with Stork and Violet. So instead of Kwanro or some other fairly well off player we get a recently well performing Kal.

2 Zerg, 4 terrans, 4 protoss, woot. Poor zerg.

I have some slightly disappointing news about this month's rank: I finished writing it last night (several hours before MSL games), but because of some logistical problems it (obviously) wasn't published. Preventing these problems was within my capacity, so I apologize.

I know I promised a June 10 release, and I'm really sorry to have to back off on that promise - but given the results of last night's MSL games, I will need to rewrite some of my rank. That means you'll see it sometime later today. I know the delay is frustrating (and makes me look foolish ) but at this point I think delaying the rank a bit longer is worth making sure that it's up to date considering last night's games. Again, I'm sorry (I really hate missing deadlines!).

Well I don't like the idea of changing the Power Rank that has already been made. I mean what if Jaedong loses in the MSL too? And Bisu wasn't eliminated,so I don't see any reason why JD should be no1 after tonight because that changed absolutely nothing. And although Effort did advance 2-0 tonight, he is not there yet to be no1. Anyway, good luck with changing the PR JWD,I know it's a shitty job, and is hard,but try predicting something too,not just make ranks based on performances. So good luck,just please don't change the rank again tomorrow if Stork happens to get eliminated from the OSL.

JD won't be no1, don't worry. But I don't see why Effort shouldn't take #1.

I wouldn't worry,I love both JD and Bisu. Hell, I love Effort too,but considering the ass-whooping Bisu gave him and the fact that both Bisu and JD have been total monsters lately and neither is dropped from any leagues yet, dropping only few games themselves, I don't see how Effort could be no1 until he truly proves himself in the leagues(ro16 is not enough), or both Bisu and JD are starting to lose more games and dropping out of leagues.

At least JWD says he's sorry, not sg like "dont whine you fools i'm the king bitch of the universe i do what i want", i have confidence he wont put s1 who did not see the ro8 yet on nr 1 rank, tonight's changes should be regarding Kal probably and a couple extra comments on the players here and there.

Also congratulation for your TL icon, JWD, i'm hoping for a good PR

bisu should still be number 1. Jaedong lost a game in pl, then won in ace, bisu did the same. Bisu lost a game in msl, but beat Jaedong. There performances are essentially the same, just as they were a few days ago, but bisu is still the more well rounded player. Though effort and kal should probably go up/get on the PR given their recent play.

You know, after JWD's comments I'm anticipating the following:

1. (Z)EffOrt
2. (Z)Jaedong
3. (P)Bisu

To be honest, it's getting harder and harder to justify (Z)EffOrt not being #1. Beginning on April 19th, this guy has won 25/28 games. That's an 89% winning percentage. That's insane. In that streak, he has now beaten Jaedong, Stork, and Flash, as well as Luxury, Mind, July, and UpMaGiC. His wins against lesser players have been utterly dominant (see: SangHo) and his wins against stronger players have been gutty (see: Jaedong and Mind).

I'm pointing out his long run statistics, because I think they show that he is not just flavor of the week, but has been consistently dominant for some time now.

The PR are an expression of who is playing the best SC right now, and I've always given a personal edge to established players like Bisu and Jaedong, because I know that they'll come back, and step it up when they need to. But at this point, even I'm not sure I'd take another player over EffOrt. I said a page ago that I think EffOrt will win a starleague soon. At this point, I think EffOrt might be the favorite to win OSL or MSL this season. Hell, I'd give him a fair chance of beating Jaedong in GOM.

So honestly, why not #1?

EDIT: More info
+ Show Spoiler +

+ In the same period (4/19 to today), Bisu is 15-4 with a 79% WP. He's beaten Jaedong, Leta, EffOrt, ZerO and Calm in the same period. In the time since the last PR, he is 7-3.
+ Jaedong is actually 17-8 in the same span (4/19 to today) with a 68% WP. Wins against sKyHigh, Luxury, Leta, and Calm. In the time since the last PR, he is 9-3.

The way effort is play, I figure it's inevitable he will take the #1 power rank at some point... He reminds me of a young Savior or Jaedong for that matter. So yeah, I don't think you would get nearly the same rage you did about Zero if you posted Effort at #2 or even #1 for that matter.

Also congrats on the blue, I figured it was only a matter of time. I remember you were associated with SC2gg though, did you abandon your duties/membership there?
