Having a top 10 is one thing, but going so far down you get really iffy with your picks, it makes them absolutely irrelevant. looked fine to me until it had Ret as the best foreigner.

Am I taking crazy pills, he's a great player but I don't think even he would name himself at that position, absolutely not based on results. Ret won Assembly Winter 2011, Blizzard EU Invitational and has done good in a number of tournaments, such as 3rd place at IEM World. How is he not a top Zerg? Did I say he is not a top Zerg? I said that placing him 15th in the world, particularly considering the players that follow is kind of absurd.
I'd be surprised if you can find 15 or more Zergs with better results than him.

wonder if JYP is going to do that 2 base immortal all in or take the third.
Ah looks like as soon as I say that he takes a third

Top level, yes, but better than Dimaga, Losira, Stephano?

The list doesn't place him as the 15th best Zerg, it has him placed as the 15th best player in the world. There is a big difference here.

Just qualifying for Code A is already better than all of Ret's results...

Top 15 in the world does not mean top 15 zerg in the world...

Overlord block micro needs to die a painful death.
It's a viable tactic but blotting out the screen with them just leads to a horrible spectator experience.
Nice game so far though =)

That's not true. He's won a couple tournaments lol and he did qualify for Code A himself when he was in korea the first time (by making ro32 in GSL open 3)

Being a top zerg (of the race I think most people will agree has been achieving pretty bad results) does not make you 15th best SC2 player in the world...
NesTea
DRG
Leenock
Stephano
>
Ret
at least, then you've got CoCa, Sen, Curious, LosirA, July, Dimaga, Lucky, Zenio, IdrA, viOlet...
I agree with Mordiford, a small number of players ranked, fair enough. Listing 1-X of every pro-gamer as anything like an exact science?
Not possible.
