Europe is so weird. You have a player who is a league above another player, who is a league or two above everyone else. On the Korean side, things are much more equalized.

Would it be wrong to say that Serral is a Korean level player facing non-korean level players??

I mean they both scored on Italy today but Serral did it 4 times instead of 1 so I guess you're right

Well, WCS NA is much worse in that regard. Since Special isn't playing there, Neeb is way above the rest. Scarlett used to be close to him, but not anymore. And Scarlett is also decently ahead of the rest. And it's been like that for quite a while.

If you think NA is bad in this regard, take a look at China.

Serral looks more scary vs foreigners than the Koreans did in the old WCS NA/EU. It's pretty crazy

where are all the people complaining that koreans were killing the competition now?
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

Well he lost a map, that's quite unacceptable. I like GOATS who don't lose maps.

Didn't Taeja do a perfect Dreamhack?

Which is why he's clearly #1 in any Power Rank over Serral.

Serral is a Serral level player facing...everybody else. I think Maru is the only other player who is close.

[image loading]

Reynor's place on the aligulac ranking is perfectly justified based on the results. The gap between Serral and Reynor has been consistently 6-9 players long, which is pretty significant. Between Reynor and the rest of Europe, it's almost another 10 players. It's like Europe has a big boss and a mini boss that everyone else has to contend with. The ladder MMRs show the same story. Reynor has been the only player to average at 7k who kept that rating almost forever without using barcode anonymity.

Fall victory falls to wrong ranking period, and GSL vs The World isn't "real" GSL tournament so it doesn't count.

Generally it doesn't matter how high win rates may rise against Koreans as Serral cannot maintain enough high consistency against them (partly due too many Koreans are getting relegated from tournaments by "weak foreigners"), and more importantly because of that not accumulating big enough sample.

Yeah.

Can't anymore even recall when Serral was 2nd in Aliculac ratings.

There will be always excuses here in tl.net.

Tl.net users will be able to find excuses, but I have faith in our writers.

Serral -> Reynor/Neeb/Special -> Elazer/TIME/HeRoMaRinE/showtime is a pretty clear hierarchy right now in WCS

As for Serral, congrats and any loss he takes in the global finals will be an upset. Best player on Earth right now, and he’s getting better

Don’t think losing to stats or the season 3 code s champion would be an upset
