Flash gets beaten a week after his replays are released, suddenly he isn't on a tear.

I wonder if players like Maru and Rain get into slumps because their stylistic play gets figured out too easily.

I personally think yes. It is not the way they play, but the way they can play, specially Rain, who can go only Colossus now(more or less), because he is not aggressive as Parting(or Maru in this case). Maru is batshit crazy aggressive player, but he opens with different strategies, so he is predictable but not so much. Rain in some periods was so much predictable it was not even nice :/
I imagine France should be able to take this unless Lilbow is busy practicing for Starcraft III. | KadaverBB is my fairy ban mother.

Taeja could lose every match in a month and they'd justify putting him on the top 10 somehow :p

I think soO has the best results but he has a special place at number 2. Somebody else must be number 1 by default, so it's Zest.

#1 should have just been left blank. Zest and soO should have just tied for 2nd.

Totally agree, but, hey, it is soO, he has to be second. I wonder why Innovation is not first because by winning semifinals he basically won the GSL
(and take in consideration that I do not like innovation)

soO can't even get first in power rank! He'll have to make up for it by winning this GSL season.

I don't see how Rain even belong on the ranking, seeing as he lost his first round of Kespa cup and first round of ro8 GSL. 3-0 and 3-1.
JaeDong, MMA both won a primier title, but having done so poorly in WCS, I can understand leaving them out. (JD losing his group, MMA losing to Golden.)

Guys the power rank is just for last month or two. Bomber was a beast he deserves his spot. Zest has been ridiculous.

soO at #2 is funny but honestly if you can't take home the prize you can't be the best player...

Honestly, i think Maru, Taeja, Parting and Rain are too high on the list, while Cure, soO and iNnoVation are too low.
*runs away
Anyways, its very hard to evaluate "who is the best right now?", despite recent results im pretty sure sOs, herO and Solar still know how to play and that they maybe deserve a place on the list

I posted it on the last power rank. Figured i had bragging rights.
I called it, i called it so much XD
Only sOs... T_T

Edit from above:

This is fucking ridiculous. Maru... lol... players do well in a single tournament and people start hyping them like crazy and then a week later they lose and get completely forgotten. Maru had a single, SINGLE day off, wasn't on point, wasn't playing on his regular level and hes nowhere? like seriously? Same thing happend to Rain in season 2, thankfully there was a proleague to lach on, but still. To me personally power rank is about consistency ASWELL results/wins in recent leagues. Flash was hyped like crazy couple weeks ago, Flash #1 terran, Flash is back, a god blah blah. Now people are saying that the best terrans in the world are Cure, Bomber and INnoVation... come on.

Also don't know what the hell is herO doing above Rain.

One more suspicious thing is that last time only non-KeSPA player TaeJa at the time was ranked #4 and now Bomber ranked #4 aswell, seems that you guys have a certain line about comparing KeSPA koreans to other ones, like afraid to put them* in top 3 or nowhere near top 5, I guess the reasoning is not to upset fans of certain players.

Anyway, overall PR is decent much better then August, gj gj...

Anyway...

1.) Zest
2.) soO
3.) Rain
4.) Maru(he maybe did not play as much, but hes ACTUALLY that good)
5.) Cure
6.) Solar
7.) TaeJa
8.) Flash
9.) INnoVation
0.) Bomber

Terrans on the rise yes, OP little maybe, I feel that blizz should crank out couple of adjustments after release* of a major patch like this.

Also, most importantly:

If Soulkey isn't so going through puberty with all the "retiring/making a break/having fun" thing he would've made it top 5.

Like. Easily.
S4 Arrows, never forget. RIP Woongjin Stars.
