I got so pissed when I saw Stephano wasn't #1, then read the addendum, and now I fully endorse the move. Not everything that plays with stereotypes is racist. Thank you, I was gonna reply the same thing until I noticed your comment. OT: the soO ranking is hilarious and so are the bits on Stephano and Taeja lol | ||

That damn Starcraft red tape. TL isn't the solution to bad power rank, TL is the problem with bad power rank! | ||

That damn Starcraft red tape. TL isn't the solution to bad power rank, TL is the problem with bad power rank! TL has the right to manage and operate its Power Rank processes as it sees fit. My personal belief however is that in order to achieve legitimacy it needs to hold a certain level of rigor in its processes. Currently the TL system is quite subjective, is frequently used for memeing, and does not have clear goal posts for how it is measured (seems one month it's based on recent results and the next it's based on past results, for instance). Aligulac and Blizzard ladder use a much more objective measure but they effectively weight all matches equally, which can be a bad thing. I am the first to say that a GSL match should be weighted above a HomeStory or online match for instance. Given the gaps in both of these it seems kind of sad for players who work tirelessly to build their reputation and practice daily to be the best, but we can't find an agreeable / accepted way to define what success looks like. Anywho that's my 2 cents I still love y'all, hugs. | ||

If you go back and watch Life during his post-match interview after the PartinG game it's pretty obvious. | ||
