Maru in september is 23-19 in games, 9-7 in matches, with losses to TY, Dark, Super, Journey, Rogue, stats and parting and wins against : Ragnarok, Hurricane, Trust, Sleep, MK, Pet, eMotion, HerO and Raynor...

Don't see why some are so mad about him not being in the list, he's clearly not in a good shape atm....

Power rank equals part form guide, part carry over from the recent past. I wouldn't have had Flash ahead of herO necessarily but I wouldn't have removed him entirely either

Shit list


I really tried but it was pretty hard to justify with how he looked in both August and September D:



yea sadly Maru hasnt been playing like he did earlier this year.

Its odd, both his and polt's form seemed to have dropped off since Terran started doing well

The only remotely relevant tournament in the last month for Maru was the GSL, as a matter of fact everything else were qualifiers. I honestly don't believe that the players like Maru invest much in preparing for those types of things.

Overall agreeable ranking, ofc. there can be discussion about Maru, but judging him is more guessing than knowing atm. (online qualifiers often have the weirdest results, I wouldn't rate them to high). In the best-of-the-rest ranking, I'd personally rate Happy over HuK, but HuK has shown improvement as well again recently, so he is certainly not the worst pick for this position either.

Rain, Flash, Innovation, and Cure but no Polt or MC? Really? This list is way too heavily biased by GSL Korea. Any top pro can randomly have a strong run in a single tournament.

Which is why neither Polt nor MC are on the list- neither of them are as good as the GSL players you listed.

Yeah i was surprised that MC was not top 4/5 :/
I wonder if those loses against Hyun, First, Stardust, Patience, SpaceMarine or Targa have any link with him not being top10 though :/
I mean, he won against CPU, Maddelisk, Stahlbolzen, Nightend and Namshar !

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

Zest shades it for me, jokes aside. Winning the Kespa Cup with soO exiting early, crushing Rain and making another final for me > soO making a final and getting swept and defeating Zest, which was impressive but could very easily have gone to Zest.

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.

Why do you like Maru so much? Because of his micro?
