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.)
Yes. Also Rain has lost a bit more on the very last matches in PL so things might have changed a bit.

author is innovations fan, i don't see any reasons to not put soulkey on the 1st line. he outplayed him in macro/defending cheeses/executing all ins, and all four games in a row. innovation played bad, that's it.

I don't agree with Innovation at rank 1 after seeing him cracked under pressure during GSL final. Maybe when Innovation finally adapt to dealing with pressure in the future, Soulkey seems to be a better player both skills and mentally at this point of time.

Excepted that the powerank is not only based on one series between two players.

Because Soulkey cheesed him 2 times, scouted a proxy 2 rax and then hugely benefitted from Bogus losing 3 medivacs for nothing. Also Innovation has more consistently looked brilliant while if you watch Soulkey he doesn't always look that great (the series vs sOs for example)

 2012-2013 Proleague/Statistics
The best percentage with at least 10 matches played this season have:
1. BraVo: 8-3 - 73%
2. Rain: 33-14 - 70%
3. Zest 25-12 - 68%
4. INnoVation 33-16 - 67,35%
5. Flash 37-18 - 67,27% (that's really close, percentage wise)
6. sOs 27-14 - 65,9%
7. Soulkey 23-12 - 65,7%
8. s2 11-6 65%
9. free 22-13 62,9%
10. RorO 25-15 62,5%
With minimum 15 games played BraVo is out, Stats is in.

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 that should give him a spot in top 10, but not top 3. spl is great fun to watch, but does not reflect individual league performance very well. Without spl results, flash shouldn't even make top 10. That's why I said this is spl biased.

Sounds like legitimate winnings to me.

They are but they don't necessarily indicate overall skill or power.

But nowhere does it say that this is a power rank for individual leagues. It's an overall one.

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.
I didn't say Life 3-0 them. I sayd Life 3-0 players that were beaten by them in the GSL. Very different thing.

I wonder if we will see JD in a SC2 Power Rank?
|
Life needs to join a PL team. I hate how low he is on this list just because unlike Flash he doesn't have another league besides GSL to prove himself in.

He is mediocre in GSTL. Go figure.

Proleague teams also play x4 or x5 as often as GSTL teams, so you have more chances to prove yourself. Life has barely had a chance to play in GSTL. I think he's played in something like two matches since GSTL started over 2 months ago?

That 70% winning rate from Rain in a volatile game like SC2, damn.
