I'm really tired of hearing about Flash who's best finish was 2nd place in an MLG almost 2 years ago - Taeja has won 12 (I think?) Tournaments since then. Taeja hasn't won 12 tournaments since MLG Dallas (might be something like 8 though), and Flash is receiving a lot of hype because he has (arguably) the best record out of any player in August and has been looking very worthy of being called a title contender. Since shortly before the SPL finals, he has been playing like champion. Taeja's however many championships in 2012/2013 don't matter in this context. | ||

Nr 4 is out and Nr 1 has to go to the decider. Life, Scarlet, Taeja and Snute are underrated. | ||

There's a lot of bracket luck involved, as well as a considerable advantage given to players who start with seeds, and doing a final ranking prediction would be pretty damn complicated. The Power Rank is just our all-around answer to the question "who's better?" Power Rank does not suggest that a higher ranked player is better than a lower ranked player in a head to head. Rankings are based on the overall appraisal of a player. | ||

So coming now after some matches has been played and saying the predictions is off is a bit weird. Like give me 2 or 3 days and I will give you a full power ranking. | ||

How are the predictors supposed to know that? So coming now after some matches has been played and saying the predictions is off is a bit weird. Like give me 2 or 3 days and I will give you a full power ranking. I actually knew Life is practicing again but people usually don't listen to me when Life is involved ![]() | ||

herO didn'T even make it to the main bracket losing to #14 Snute, must've been luck when he got 2-1ned Also bracket luck I guess for sOs because he had #21, #16 and #14 in his group when he was ranked top 5? I see :D Not complaining just find it funny how people argue on here >_< | ||

Let's not forget MC defeated Flash the first series, but nobody was hyping him up to be a better player. Zest still looks like a more frightening person to go up against compared to Taeja. | ||
