They WILL come to Polt. He is probably the most attractive player for any team outside of Korea. He has the biggest stream, might be the best player, will be at BlizzCon and his charisma and fan base are through the roof.

he is definitely one of the most attractive players in the literal sense of the word

You didn't put him at 1 so you're not worth his time!


But you can't put both Nerchio and Polt #1, it's unsolvable!

oh it is, Polt is top 3 at best

People don't get that 'Power Rank' isn't about 'who is gonna win the tournament', though.


Even if you use the NBA definition for power rankings, it is used for rate a team's most recent form/performances.

And if you had even been following the scene closely enough, no way ptitdrogo would be no.3 based on recent form.

It's used to rate form/performances, and PtitDrogo had easily the biggest performance recently. His form since has been questionable, yes, but I predicted that it'd continue because there's plenty of people who were meh online but amazing offline- it was a bad prediction, but that's one bad prediction out of 32. Would you really place Polt top 5 out of what he's done in LotV so far?


Ptitdrogo stopped to perform after the patch. Even him thought that you overrated him badly.
Zest fanboy.

And he's also traded sets with puCK, lost twice to Kelazhur, had scrappy sets against viOLet, lost to Neeb and Hydra. Are you really going to weigh 3-2 HyuN 3-2 sOs in an online tournament cross-server over PtitDrogo's DH performance?

DH was on another patch it's almost irrelevant at this point for P.

They give you indication of form, and they are more recent, as well as after a patch that changed a lot for Protoss. Drogo has mostly lost recently, including the force of nature that is JonnyREcco. He's far more out of place than Polt, that's for sure.

If i were to be completely honest, a power ranking system based on recent form/performance doesn't makes sense to me in SC2.

Because it has always been very volatile and patches have been known to make a big difference.

Polt beat sOs on Feb 7th. He lost to Neeb and Hydra a week later, and he lost to Kelazhur two weeks after that, and he lost to Neeb again the next day.

Anyway I'm pretty good with having one person out of place on a 32-man PR. Focus on the writing, and have fun with it! That's what we're here for, so just enjoy the games and stop worrying about who's out of place. <3
