Yeah, I really miss the old power ranks T_T they were so cool~

Just the elo rankings in the sidebar feels sad and decidedly unawesome =P

Yea elo is ok, but i always enjoyed reading the power ranks =)

Of course these only show the players attending the specific tournament, so thats not a general power rank.

The problem with power ranks imo is that in SCBW it was easy, all of Kespa plays in PL, MSL, OSL (and GomTV at times). It is easy to keep track of it because everyone plays in the same leagues and there aren't that many games. Now if MLG X or IEM Y happen we have some Koreans flying over that never face each other. Which makes it hard to make a solid power ranking.

The teams in GSTL for example play each other, but they don't play SPL.

I agree, maybe a power rank for Korean scene only? and a power rank for foreigners?

Why did the tomato blush?

Because it saw the salad dressing.

It was a joke that was said to me by my preschool head teacher? Principal? She was pretty awesome. Since then that joke stuck to me.

It's supposed to be a secret but R1CH made a breakthrough and modified spoilers to hide content from Them. The truth is that they are fed with bans. The real reason TL has strict moderation is to appease the Flying Monkey Gods with sacrifices. They'll kill us all if we don't feed them. Please...someone help.


Can somebody explain the origin of these flying monkeys (like in here) to one of the newer TL goers? XD

Also, how IS rank icon calculated? O:
