Oh and how did Byun deserve rank 5?

A lot of these matches in the Ro16 could easily have been tournament finals in another year. Looking forward to the actual games. Shame I can't stay up to watch them though.

I actually think Munch is pretty on the mark with this one. Maybe soO too high, I don't know where his mental game is at after another GSL

I like how he didn't actually tweet at aLive though.

Further demonstration of aLive not existing.

If you think about it, mYi made the sickest pick-up with aLive. Everyone supports them now because they signed a good Korean player, but they don't have to pay any salary because aLive doesn't actually exist

The ROI must be pretty crazy for a pickup like that.

But there's so many tournaments out there to get 2nd in! I hope he reconsiders

As I understand, power ranks place more emphasis on recent form (another reason why I don't see how in the world Dear is where he is..)


I think the guy who makes the list just watched a few random games here and there and doesn't look at all results. Hence there is little consistency in the rankings.

ByuN does nothing since last year - gets 5th
Maru loses to Inno and Stats - gets 11th

huh
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

To me the weirdest pair of rankings are Ryung at 14 and Dear at 10.

Every time I see TL staff talk about Ryung, its nothing but negativity. Two Ro4 finishes in the last year is amazing, and its weird that this article says he had a relatively easy path, when they rank all the supposedly "easy" people higher on the list.
Even in his losses, like the 0-3 against innovation, he was STILL looking super solid. He just has a playstyle that I think doesnt match up that well against Innos, so despite all the games being pretty close, Ryung was never able to take him down.

I'd honestly switch ryung and dear, but other wise the list isnt too far off what I think

These days power ranks are fairly hard to make tbh, what do you consider? Like there are online tournaments every week but the participation is fairly inconsistent in general. There is no weekly proleague anymore, etc

I don't think the list is too bad, at a certain rank it just is fairly hard to be sure about anything. I think the best way to make a PR would be to have a point system you simply have to apply for the recent tournaments though, that way it's at leat 100% consistent

What has Dear done in recent months except lose a lot of PvPs. Should without a doubt be in the bottom 3.

Small correction: Ryung doesn't have two Ro4 finishes, last year he lost in the ro8 against Byun.
