Yeah, Demuslim is top ten right? Bet you would put Stephano (who's retired) as number 1 because he showed up at homestory cup.


I didn't say that. I am just implying that Taeja being #01 is a little weird that's all. My "objective" top would be Dear Taeja sOs and Jaedong, but maybe I don't understand this game well enough so I can't appreciate Taeja's godlike gameplay..

Demuslim is top ten based on his POTENTIAL.

Taeja and sOs are waaaaay too high and Maru is too low.


Look I'm really not a fan of Taeja (although people seem to believe that we writers are all disgusting Liquid fanboys tt) but look at this:

http://aligulac.com/players/6-TaeJa/results/

If in a power rank we measure results (in tournament placings), players beaten and how convincing the victories were, there is no way to argue against Taeja being #1.

I don't feel TaeJa has won big enough tournaments to be #1, but then I look at his consistency over the entire year and I can't really argue...


Not sure if serious

Hell, it's about time! Pretty good power rank. I find it quite funny that Bomber was last PR rank 1 and now he didn't even make in top 10, dat ST_Bummer :S.

I was little surprised for Life and Maru's position but I guess Life has done really good lately and can't really tell if Maru should be higher than those 3 zergs so I guess it is ok. The top 3 is what I supposed to it look like from the start.

I think it's pretty reasonable to have TaeJa #1 considering he keeps winning. That's basically what power rank is all about right?

I think people should also be on the lookout for San. He's inching closer and closer to being able to put a great run together and finish it well

For fairness there should be no Liquid players in TL Power Ranks since they're obviously only in them because they play on TL

Taeja is top1 by a far margin on TLPD and Aligulac, he won 3 tournaments in a row and people still complain about him being 1st in this PR lol.

Very nice PR btw.

Wait what?

Over the past three months taeja won HSC and DH winter, but bombs out of what should be considered the main tournament circuit and still makes no1? Any number one pick is obviously controversial and there's a lot of ways you can go with it, but this is not the way I would have gone with it.

(Also, the comparison to MVP/Life is pretty damn unfair. Both of them got wins in KR, Taeja never has)

San is the world's best Protoss.

Just ask TaeJa.

The only tragedy is that elfi isn't #1 because he owns TaeJa

i sort of find power ranks a bit useless.i mean they are good in a disorganized system with no central ranking like it was before wcs points.but now blizzard sort of unifies everything under one complete ranking system who generally gives the most objective look of player performance.as far as i am concerned soulkey and jaedong and sos and dear are at the top since they performed the best in the most important tournaments of the year.taeja in 1 place is way off.the guy basicly won 2 homestory cups and 2 dremahcks most of which were avoided by the top wcs kr koreans.also if you take it in terms of quality of opposition top 10 should be only those koreans in wcs korea since that is way harder than anything else.every stage in wcs korea is filled with people that given a chance could advance at least to a dreamhack semifinal.thew difference between them and taeja and hero and jaedong is that they do not have a team to send them to all tournaments.

TaeJa broke the all time aligulac record! How can you argue about his dominance?
By the way, as Shellshock said, watch out for San! (Though he seems to choke a bit too much)
TaeJa IS a bonjwa. TLO - Scarlett - Snute - MaNa - HerO - TeamLiquid fighting!
