Life could have easily 3-0ed any player that those players beat in code S/A. Life still has the best ZvT, and is very solid in other match ups. This list is too proleague biased. Stop with the "could have... would have BS". This power rank is based on accomplishments not on wishful thinking. Last month Life didn't really do that good. This is the fact. PS: I highly doubt Life wins a ZvZ vs Roro. Don't you remember the last time they meet? Roro destroyed Life easily... But Life wiped the floor with Flash every time they meet. Flash was 2-0ed out of his group. How do you justify Flash on #3? 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? I'm pretty sure Rain has the best winrate in PL. Flash has a bit more wins but also much more matches played iirc. In percentage I think Rain is well ahead of everyone else in PL. 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.) 2012-2013 Proleague/StatisticsThe 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. That 70% winning rate from Rain in a volatile game like SC2, damn.
And they still placed Flash before Rain....

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?
Besides Proleague is a bigger thing than GSTL, players are far more likely to practice specifically for Proleague than GSTL.

so innovation cheese/all ins soulkey 3 times and soulkey the same 3 times and the one long game goes to soul key and before that they were 1-1 in series, yet innovation is better than soulkey in rankings, thats is like joe frazier beating ali and saying ali is ranked #1.... you people are such fan boys of koreans when they go on a winning streak aka taeja, drg, mma, mvp, nestea,etc

I like how the players you listed were actually the best in the world during their respective runs.

Innovation has been doing better than Soulkey is proleague. Also he played better in quarterfinal and semifinal. One match is not everything.
Look at Fantasy. He won OSL and still had to wait LONG time before he was #1 in Power Rank.

And as it was already said, it was not soulkey that won, but innovation throwing it away. FYI, I am a zerg fun.

I'm quite happy with 2. Soulkey 1. innovation
Even though Soulkey won and played really well after game 3. I don't think those 4 games were "thrown away" by Innovation it was just Soulkey countering Innovations greedy style, no tanks etc. And incredible hellbat defence.
Still ranking Innovation number 1 is good choice because his run in GSL was imo more incredible, his games in SPL has been superior to Soulkey etc.
Great ranking overall I don't agree with everyone of them but it is still great and epic to see Powerrank in sc2!!

Bringing this feature back is a terrible terrible mistake. It's the equivalent of "Best Games of 2013" for video games reviewers. Pointless rankings only written to make people take about it and gain viewers. I expected more out of the writing team.

really proud of Hero, he has improved so much!

Good list, although a bit boring because it's kinda predictable, hah. Personally I think Parting is overrated as always, the rest are fine.
