Absolutely. not quite. life only played 2 code S level players in Zest and Taeja. In order to win gsl , you will at least beat 4 of them. Winning gsl is still a lot harder than winning blizzcon | ||

 if he had scouted the right direction he would had beaten Classic then he would probably had beaten MMA and we would have a fantastic finals vs life. Whyyyyy | ||

I don't know much about Solar, other than he's on some wild tear recently, but he wasn't at Blizzcon at all. He'd be the one I move down the most to #10 to make room for Bomber at #7. Life #1 is kind of obligatory and definitely expected. Life playing his best was once considered best in world, and he appears near enough that level, plus he's holding the trophy. He's got more competition now and probably won't hold the rank long; we'll see. | ||

He's done nothing but win and qualify for everything since leaving SKT Also if only KeSPA liked their players ;o Yeah but last offline event rain participated in was KeSPA cup and he got severly bashed by... Bomber. Power rank should have 25 players it would be less heated as a discussion  But I like heated pointless discussios that just confront personnal opinion with no rationnality whatsoever, so here I go : - If power rank is based on the chance a player has to win a big worldwide tournament with all the best player participating, I don't think Life should be number one. We already knew he could perform incredibly, Blizzcon just confirmed it (I had votred for him in the "underdog pool") but is he stable? will he we win again? will he establish a new reign? not sure at all. It's not the 2012 Life yet, I hope he will come back at his top, but at this point he still has to improve. He's clearly not the dominating #1 player in the world. He's top 5 that's all, and that's already very good compared to what he was like 2 monthes ago - At the moment, Solar > soO, easily. soO is just on a terribly slipery slope since DH final (against Solar...) he's clearly not as good as he was 3 monthes ago, got 3 major defeats where he seemed just helpless (Solar, INno, Taeja). On the other hand solar is on a ascending curve, he gets better and better, beats all the opponents that are thrown at him. Solar is clearly going to be a serious contender for the unofficial best zerg of 2015. As of today, soO is behind Life and Solar, and depending on his run at the hot6 cup, he might soon not even be worth being in the top ten. As of today, not a lot of people would bet much on soO chance to win a big tournament... Hope he can recover and rebuild his mental strength in 2015. | ||

Otherwise, I'd move Bomber up to #7 and MMA up one or two spots. Zest, soO, or Inno can make some room since they didn't get past ro16 or ro8. Bomber and Classic are no pushovers; both won WCS this year, which seems to matter quite a bit in Classic's case. I feel like the question was asked, "Classic or herO?" and Classic won out because of a GSL trophy. Classic is above herO because herO doesn't know what scouting is | ||

He must have his coach, his teammates all make fun of him when it happened at Katowice, yet here we are. If i were him I'd be the most paranoid guy in the whole world when i play a PvP in a tournament. I'm totally baffled. Proxy 2 gate are to herO what finals are to soO.

Edit: I am not sure if this is a correct English sentence, shame on me. Why don't you agree on Aligulac top 10? It's not a power rank, it's just maths (And just as for the PR, it doesn't predict who will win against whom, it just does probabilities). | ||

Winning gsl is still a lot harder than winning blizzcon unless its a GSL with half of the top players being oversea, like this year. And Blizzcon was basically the tournament were those 2 divided regions that seldom played against each other really clashed, so Code S players could have proven that Code S actually meant they are the best. But it doesn't matter really, since there is a region lock next year. And GSL will be back in full. | ||
