Well Aligulac is equivalent of TLPD + nicer statistical estimation which by very definition are very unlike the idea behind Power Rank which is willing to give a ton of credit for short series of winnings etc. | ||

Don't you remember the last time they meet? Roro destroyed Life easily... | ||

Flash was 2-0ed out of his group. How do you justify Flash on #3? | ||

Some other things happened in between, like him all killing teams in PL. I do think Life could rank higher but this is an estimation of current form. Life hasn't quite shown that dominant play in most recent games. | ||

And Rain behind Flash is also questionable. But overall though this ranking sounds quite accurate. | ||

Have you seen Flash's record in R5 Proleague? He's easily in the top 5 in-form players, based both off gains on Aligulac and ELO. Furthermore Life's victories over Flash in MLG and that Asian Indoor tournament were more than a month ago, they're hardly recent. I don't think anyone would dispute that Life has a better head-to-head record than Flash but based off last month's results, there is little we can say about Life and a lot going for Flash. I'd say the top 4 in the rankings are accurate enough. Innovation has had a real steamer in the GSL, though I honestly believe Soulkey is the superior player to both Innovation and Flash over all three match ups. Flash's TvP in HOTS is looking quite shaky (while his TvT and TvZ are looking stellar), and I have similar doubts with Innovation's TvT (though yes he does have the world's best TvZ). Doesn't Soulkey have the best wins-loss ratio in Proleague, or is that Rain? | ||

Because this is not about head to head, it is about the player performance in ALL Month. Flash had a 15-2 record on ProLeague in the last round, that is an amazing record against some of the best Kespa players. You could say that it is "unfair" because Life is not in proleague, but the thing is, we saw very little of Life this month. Yes he is still one of the best in the world, but he did lose in the group phase in GSL and has not really played GSTL that much, so this month the only notable thing he did was indeed beat flash. That is all. | ||

Flash has excpetional Proleague record. Life has pretty much nothing going for him. He played 1 match in GSTL - he lost to NAKSEO. He finished GSL/WCS run in round of 16. He beat MarineKing 2-0 which considering how much slumping MKP is, is not an achievement. Flash on the other hand has excellent Proleague record. That's why Life's historical wiping floor with Flash is irrelevant. | ||

Life still has the best ZvT, he murdered Flash in that match up. He is also very solid in other match ups. This list is too proleague biased. This is the 2nd thing I love in powerank, people commentaries. Fanboyism. No, Life doesn't deserve to be above Flash and Roro. No, Life couldn't easiliy 3-0 them. No, Life has no longer the best ZvT. Still a good zerg, but try to be subjective. Powerank is proleague biased because this is one of the most active league, the most hyped (since OSL and MSL no longer exist) with the highest level. | ||

In percentage I think Rain is well ahead of everyone else in PL. | ||

HerO's having a flow at the time, he well deserved his tenth place. I just wish he'd go play GSL again, he'd be in for a ro32-ro8 finish I think, depending on his emotions. | ||

Yeah percentage/ratio-wise I had a feeling it was Rain (though from what I recall, Soulkey also has a pretty good percentage due to his low number of losses.) | ||
