Flash wins zero tournaments prior to 2.1 and is 1 for 1 since, coincidence!?!?

Very strange that Flash is not first, tbh. After his record for the last month, which most of this ranking is supposed to be based on. If you want to rank for july, then write powerranks more often!

Foreigner ranks are dull

It was originally a top 10 and he was 7th behind these five and Vortix

Also it seemed like two weeks ago everyone was in agreement that Maru was the best Terran in the world D: if he had just gone to IEM and won we wouldn't have all this dissent

Wooo more PR.

I like most of it. Though I don't really think inno is top 10 this year.

Hard to say who should be number one too. Rain has been pretty solid all year and is looking really sharp at the moment but he hasn't been playing a huge amount of games.

This just gets me hype for more GSL to see which of these players can do it

Not enough TL bias though.

Polt is overrated, Rain does not deserve the #1 spot, soO deserves to be much higher, etc.

#1 Flash
#2 Zest
#3 soO
#4 Maru
#5 Taeja
#6 Cure
#7 Rain
#8 Life
#9 Innovation
#10 Parting

There are actually some other players I would rather swap in for the last 3, but since they don't play as much I didn't include them.

Feels kinda sketchy to put Rain at number 1 to be honest

Also, very happy to see Major on the foreigner top list as he has been just beastly, and I would not be surprised to see him rise

Why doesn't Rain deserve to be there?
I mean i would also argue that Flash would be the better number one, but Rain pretty much would be second then.
Just look at his stats man

Because I'm not too impressed by who he has beaten. Sure, he has beaten Zest, but it was 2-1, and then the other was a BO1.

Besides Zest, who has he beaten in July-August that's been looking very fierce lately? Cure? He lost to him recently 2-0 despite beating him previously 2-0. If we take previous results, Rain still hasn't done enough recently to claim the #1 spot.

I don't like using BO1s to say he's looking incredible--- yes he beat herO, Bbyong and a bunch of others, but 1-0 isn't enough for me.

We (I) deemed it too big and clunky when piled on top of another top 10 ranking. Based on feedback, this may or may not change for future PRs.

It would've been very long with 20 I think. If people want the whole 10 I guess we might do that next time but I think it was an attempt to make it not quite so monstrously large

Possibly. but legends tend to get the benefit of the doubt.

I have a big issue with Rain as #1. I understand he's a great player playing great, but the #1 spot should be reserved for players who've won events recently. I don't believe rains won anything in a long time.

Most of the rest of the players on the list have won recently. I'd have preferred Rain anywhere but #1 until he wins something. Top spot should be earned on the big stage.

You are correct, no effort was put into this power rank at all...
