hmm yeah it's kind of weird
if i were innovation, then yeah i'd place the two biggest threats to me in the same group so as to eliminate one of them

If Parting can beat Solar (a fairly big ask) I think he's got an insanely good chance of making the final. I can't really see MMA or TY beating him in TvP.

NO MC T_T!
NO MARU!
This is so sad. Worst result possible. Won't even get a possible Life vs PartinG in the semis. Fuck everything.
That game 2 of Maru vs herO on MGR though.. holy shit. Best game of 2015 so far. Maru was so masculine in his desire to win. I would've just floated my buildings and played it safe for a draw like a jabroni, but Maru said fuck that and FUCK HEROOOOOO *snipes last pylon*. Then he lost in g3 and then to PartinG ;/

Damn, wish MC got through but at least Parting got his revenge.

I would like to apologize for my oversleeping, I totally blame The_Templar for this.

Yea, Innovation and Life fall off all the time. Rain is so consistent. hahaha Rain has never been Code B like Life was last year  . i'm searching a tournament win in 2014, could you help me: http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Rain_(Korean_Protoss)/Results Before Rain's disastrous RO16 group the other day he was still the best all around Protoss (due to herO's PvP weakness and sOs/Zest not making it to individual leagues). Regardless he's not in the Life & Inno bracket atm but he's been one of the best players of the last 2 years. If you just care about championships you can also say that soO hasn't been one of the best and most consistent players over the last year. And Maru also hasn't won anything in a while but has still been one of the best terrans and players as well. herO beat Rain in the only time they've met this year. How was rain best all around protoss over herO? Losing a 4-3 series doesn't really say if one player is better than the other especially in a volatile matchup like PvP. Life also got outplayed by Rain recently but he's still the better player. Rain "had" been better across all matchups prior to that disaster earlier this week. In fact aligulac actually shows the change where herO just overtook him. Rain won against Life. Otherwise this year he lost against every top player. His next best wins are Classic and DRG, two guys that are near to irrelevant at the top competition right now. His losses are to Rogue, Soulkey, Dream, Dark, Soulkey again, and even lost to players like Gumiho and Impact. Anytime he is up against a somewhat bigger name he loses aside from the 2-1 against Life. He is not up there with the best right now. Rain has been my favourite player ever since he changed the WoL PvP matchup. I have always considered him as top three in the world.
Now, however, I must agree with you. He is no longer a top tier player. Does he have the skill to be? Yes. But does he have the ABILITY to? No. It is not evident in his play.
