Well I guess in the months before this one we had the blessing of a stable ranking through the good players being good but with the recent chaos this power rank stumbles into absurdity. Sad to see. I don't blame monk, I blame the game btw.


Power Rank is wrong

It's not that the last power ranks were wrong or anything...

Finally the madness has ended and we have a Terran top 3 again.
Curious that we spend more time congratulating people who have succeeded than encouraging people who have not. 파이팅! ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ"

This list seems to reverse how KESPAish the first few lists were.

A trend?

Yes, clearly


Yes, clearly. Bomber's play is efficient but not awe inspiring. He had good brackets too. I felt Rain would have beaten him again if they met.


This just in: TvP only match-up that matters


What's going on darling, you seem aggressive recently :/

As a summary of the month I agree with most things on this list. Only thing to criticize imo is Maru that high considering how hard he got smacked around at the WCS Finals by aLive and Scarlett.


People want to deny Bomber his rightful #1; with Life not on the list, I have to get behind the next best player! TT

Massive shake ups wow! Wonder if this trend will continue, but I rate in November things should plateau. Can't wait for these next 2 months to play out.

I think Maru should be #1 for winning wcs korea.

As usual these aren't very interesting anymore because there are not really any difference in 'power' between the players - only difference in achievements.

Lol, this is ridiculous. Probably the most absurd one to date.

With the now official crowning of Bomber as "the best in the world" (lololol), I hereby declare the new "curse" of winning a WCS Season Final. You win one, you get super mega ultra hyped, and before late, you drop miserably off the chart. Innovation check, Bomber soon to check too.


You did read this part right?

A review, not a predictor: The PR is a rating based on previous results, not a scouting report for who will do well in the future. We can't believe this is not completely obvious.
And I don't presume that you predict anything. It's just the whole "oh the best etc etc". The curse of WCS Season Champions is not directly related to this, with it or without it, it just kinda happens on its own. People take winning this thing way too seriously as if it actually means the guy is the best, when he could easily not be.


How are you ever going to know who's truly best, stay in their team houses, watch them practice and decide for yourself who plays the best? Bomber won the biggest and most important tournament, so in that month he was the best. It seems pretty simple to me.

I'll give you an example. Soulkey won WCS KR over Innovation. The PR came right after it. It still had Innovation as #1, despite he just lost a very important final in the most important region. (it was before the season world finals) That was okay, right?


No it wasn't okay, I disagreed with it then and I still do now.

you weren't around when we used to have the prs? it has changed massively into a ranking of achievments.

It's just that I don't trust this resurgence of his to be long term. I mean in WoL he just almost couldn't beat any good TvT player and in HoTS he suddenly just beat everyone in TvT? Maybe he is the type of player that is good when the game is still kinda fresh. I feel that Taeja has more of a long-term qualities. But we'll see.

To be fair, the current month's performance are a huge part of the rankings and Bogus dropped out in Ro16 at the season finals.

2nd place could be disputed between Taeja and Jaedong but I'd put both above Maru!

Those two played some of the best games of the year!
Taeja, Jaedong, HerO, Snute, TLO!
