And also Maru. Dark clearly underestimated Elazer and got outplayed 4 out of 5 matches, so i don't think he should drop that much. His ego got him eliminated, while Maru looked completly lost and outplayed by Stats.

Depends if they wait for the RO16 to finish or not considering it's being played during the last week of August and the first one of Sep.
I imagine France should be able to take this unless Lilbow is busy practicing for Starcraft III. | KadaverBB is my fairy ban mother.

They should, but even Dark stomping his group in Code S wouldn't be enough for him to keep his #1 spot after losing in the ro16 as GSL's reigning champion against a player ranked #29 on Aligulac, in my opinion.

Maru sits at #6 in this Power Ranking and while he looked horrendous in his 0-3 loss against Stats, his Code S group is the group of death and advancing convincingly may net him some position on the next PR.

If Serral win GSL vs World, there is no doubt they will place him on the top of ranking this month because he will not play against any Korean GSL player onwards (beside Nationwar) until before Blizzcon. So, his performances wont change so much that it will affect the ranking.

Another possibility, Stats will ascend to the top if he win the GSL vs World provided that he must get out of the ro.16 bracket in the next GSL. Stats must overcome two more hurdles in order to be in the top compared to Serral who needs to win GSL vs World only.

I mean, if Dark doesn't completely botch his spine crawler placement on g1, Dark sweeps the series 3-0, and instead of talking about how hurt Dark's pride should be, we would all be talking about how Elazer the foreigner truly didn't deserve his spot and how Scarlett would have done so much better and what a crime it is that he "stole" that spot from her. The only game I think was truly embarrassing for Dark was game 1.

But he literally won g2 and g3. The spotted spine crawler killed his chances of winning g1. It is entirely within the realm of possibility that he would have easily won g1 if that hadn't gotten spotted, especially considering Elazer admitted in his post-game interview that he was nervous and did not expect Dark to cheese.

Had he placed the spine properly in g1 there's a decent chance he wins, so given he stomped games 2 and 3, yeah

Assuming the other two games go the same and the two players don’t alter their approach based upon how game one went.

If it’s a set 5 and it’s the decider then yeah, you can say if x player did this better they’d have won.

If it’s the first set then I don’t think you can just add that game to what happened subsequently and come up with a 3-0. Maybe Elazer plays safe in set 2 to avoid an early loss again and Dark gets corners for greed and goes for a simple 2-0, or maybe Dark decides to play greedy with a 1-0 and Elazer decides after a cheese loss to say fuck it and cheese game 2 and evens it up.

Sure people have their plans going into a series but they’re influenced by how the series is going as well.

As will always be the case when guessing how a series would have gone given a different opening. But the idea that Dark had no chance at a 3-0 is still wrong imo. Games 2 and 3 were stomps, game 1 was a free win for Elazer due to Dark's missed spine placement.

Fortunately Starcraft is no "if/when" game and Dark lost fair and square
TheDougler is the master of signature bets, he is the two-time Blizzcon SigBet Champ. Also, Serral let me down.

Since some ppl have been asking, next Power rank is after WCS Fall/Montreal and GSL Ro16

obviously this is so we can hope Reynor beats Serral and we have a reason not to put him at #1 again

A very appropriate timing, I have to say.

On the other hand, Serral should be #1 even if he doesn't win WCS Montreal, unless he embarasses himself crashing 0-7 out of the tournament(ehm...).

Odds on Serral getting #2 and <pick a random Korean> taking #1? I'm willing to give it 20:1 odds for Trap or Dark to take #1 over Serral, because reasons

I guess many people will be satisfied for some reason, but it's not going to be a huge shocker I suppose... :D
