You could argue swapping some players, but the players chosen for top 5 are perfect, imo.

PartinG seems too high though.

Will we see Flash win Kespa Cup, GSL season 3, Blizzcon, and finally become the first bonjwa of SC2?

How you can not agree with putting Flash as #1 is beyond me. WTF? Best winrate, brought his team to a proleaguevictory, did well in GSL and won IEM. WHAT IS HE SUPPOSED TO DO? Maybe he needs to do a handstand while playing to appease the mighty TL writers?

Looks like there was not enough drama in the last power rank, therefor this non-sense!
In all seriousness, looks good. Might not have placed Maru and Parting at number 2 and 6 but i feel this PR sums it up pretty nice

PartinG and TaeJa above soO? Really?? Also Polt as number #8? Are you kidding me? It's arguable if he would even make Code A, let alone Code S.

You guys give WAY to much credit for people that play outside of Korea.

1.) Rain
2.) soO
3.) Maru
4.) Flash
5.) Zest
6.) Soulkey
7.) Cure
8.) Solar
9.) PartinG
10.) Random foreign Korean, or TeamLiquid player if you people have THAT big of a need to make a list with atleast 1 of those players.

Edit: Slight adjustments


I just wonder how much Taeja has to win against Code S players before blind KeSPA fanboys like you would recognize he's one of the best in the world. It's starting to resemble religious fanaticism, the way you deny reality. It's getting creepy. Even Snute stomped all over your precious gods the past weeks.

I don't understand Innovation being there. And Cure is way overhyped for his short succes period. MC should be in there if only for beating Flash convincingly at IEM.

Foreigner ranking seems perfect.

Switching to WCS KR, and making a result would be a good start, also I want to add that I don't have anything against TaeJa or TL I'm being purely objective.

Why does it start with Number 1 and not with Number 10 (like it used to)?

p.s. Maru es numbero uno

1. this is a power rank for the month of august.
2. he does well for more than one month or two already
3. Flash really should be number one this month

Obviously you never can make THE perfect list, but parting and polt seem to be very weirdly placed too

Oh sorry, I didn't know this was the yearly consistency rank, instead of the Powerrank for August.

I'm surprised at Rain but that's because I don't follow KR as closely these days. Still, I was pretty sure Flash would be at #2 if not #1. Isn't Cure the guy you'd see as Cure (Speed) on FPL? He usually was a pretty good value pick for FPL.

I feel like the foreigner list won't change much, but we'll see :o

Edit: Slight adjustments

According to Aligulac, TaeJa is:

5-1 vs Zest
4-3 vs Solar
And 1-3 vs Flash. He did not play any other players of your list in the last two months, but regarding this results I don't see why he cannot be ahead of Solar and Zest at this point.

You mean he was a valuepick for your antiteam when he was prized 7 points?
