Next spot could be Neeb, or TY, or soO. A single amazing run basically describes TY's 2017. Not only that, but TY's was 7 months ago compared to GuMiho's being approximately 4.

Over the entirety of 2017, Gumiho has 2 ro8 finishes and a win. TY has 3 ro8 finshes, a ro4, a final, and a win 2 wins, WESG too. Oh yeah, I forgot about TY winning that bo7 showmatch against Maru. People never seem to talk about it on here for some reason They talk about the $$$. It was a well-paid showmatch.
At this point, I think it would be fairly straightforward to finalize the Terran hierarchy for 2017. Inno is unquestionably first. TY clearly takes second. After that though, it gets murkier. Maru, then Gumiho, then ByuN, then aLive, then Ryung, would be my ranking. But I can see how people could rank them differently.

i mean, neeb also won a gsl like touranment, probably a slightly easier one, but he didnt took as many tries as gumiho.
i totally agree with this placement. wouldn't be surprised to see soO next.

Soo wrote an article saying he will practice more for BlizzCon and have GSL Season 1+2 form.
Also: Personally I tend to think TY a tad below Gumiho though since WESG was so far back then. But overall I find this power rank so far quite okay.

bringing us all back to the fact that the Unofficial World Champion is the only true way to measure Starcraft skill

He might be not the strongest terran player, but his game is most fun to watch! Love gumiho's mech games!

Firstly, that was a year ago. The amount that a single victory can indicate current form decreases over time. Results from before the big patch last year hold no value.
And secondly, Neeb did not win a GSL-like tournament. He did indeed take korean PvP by storm with his superior expirience of disruptor-stalker control, and he did indeed win a korean tournament with it. And while that is an incredible achievment, it's not on the same level as winning GSL. In fact it's not even close.

Gumi just beat down neeb when they meet I really dont agree with this ranking.
But what a great read ! Especially the first paragraph Zealousy. Gratz

We were so close to having Ryung take Gumiho's place.

TL rankings have always been wrong anyway...

Classic pvsnp Liquid bias

Don’t agree with that. See Ej’s posts for a lot of good reasons. Neeb is getting overhyped imo.

TRUE beats Taeja head-to-head and TL had the nerve to put him 15th....smh

Oh man, thanks guys, that 4 pages i read were pure fun. Maybe just calm down a bit about a Ranking that has absolutely nothing to say. I like Gumiho and i think that was a great read, thanks for that. I personally dont think Neeb is better, but hey, its okay, the ro8 will be 8 koreans most likely anyway.
|
I don't know about this one, I still think TvZ is Gumi's only real achilles heel. His TvT is great, maybe only second to Inno and his TvP is up there too. That said, Gumi is in a group with Serral who's looked great vT lately and Inno who's obviously gonna be a challenge so there's a real chance that he doesn't make it out.
|
soO or Neeb next I think, probably not fair to rank Neeb higher than anyone else other than soO even if he has been completely dominant in WCS and is number 1 on aligulac.
