OneOther, I need an honest answer: "do you dislike JD?" I guess the answer is "yes", at least from ur posts
anyway, kal always beat stork, and aside from that, he didn`t have a phenomenal moth: he beat jd(in a really good game, grats for him) and oversky, and lost to FBH and jangbi. Also I have to say once again, it seemed that u didn`t read my post: jd was heavily overplayed in ProLeague.

Haha you guys make it so hard for me to not post To answer your question, I dislike Kal and Jaedong equally. So it's not favoritism that makes me think Kal should be above Jaedong.
For this reason:
Let's take a look at them: Kal - MSL Semifinalist (I am not taking this too much into consideration) Crucial ace match victory vs Stork Crucial ace match victory vs Jaedong
Jaedong - Blows his advantage and loses vs FBH, Ace match loss. (Bad play) Blows a HUGE advantage and loses vs Kal on a ZERG FAVORED map, Ace match loss. (Terrible play) Jaedong has not been himself, no matter what you want to believe. I understand what you are saying about Jaedong being overplayed, but Kal had semifinals while JD didn't. It also doesn't justify JD getting big advantages and blowing them with terrible plays.

One thing that has to be said- Im not totally sure about all the rankings- but Jangbi should take Free's spot in the top 3.
Jaedong can drop to all hell for all I care, no mercy for the weak.

Free is a million times more better than Jangbi. He had a far more difficult road in MSL,while carrying the Woongjin Stars in the Proleague. He beat Savior in the Gom,and Savior played really awesome in those matches. He lost only to Bisu,with the same score as Jangbi,and shown incredible play in Pv T and P v Z,while Jangbi didn't really shine in any matchups. Come on,you can't consider beating Yarnc 5 times an impressive feat. Neither is beating Kal,Kal is not that good in the matchup. I know,people will come back at me that,"How dare you say that,he beat Stork I don't know how many times". I don't give a fuck. He lost to Backho and played shit against Jangbi. So to sum it all up,I apologise for writing such a long post about an obvious joke and I know I don't have a good sense of humour.

Jangbi and Jaedong shouldn't be in the top 5 imo. 1. Stork 2. Bisu 3. Flash (9-1 in his last 10) 4. Free 5. Best

Otherwise their MSL's were identical in difficulity- except that Jangbi went to that final stage, and free did not. Jangbi also looked GOOD against Bisu, while free did not.

Yeah 65% in pvt and 61% in pvz...Jangbi is such a newb, hes got like no good match ups. Right? Are you fucking dumb buddy? Jangbi is hot as hell in all match ups, and just dismantled Iris straight after losing in the finals, with virtually no preparation. Jangbi has some of the best pvt and pvz out there, and hes far more capable than Free is in pvp.

They are even at PvP.

The rest are too close. free is better than jangbi PvZ -in 6 months free lost PvZs just to JD ( and one to savior at WCG )

SAT II U.S. History + IB Extended Essay suuuucks

dont worry, the US history SAT is ridiculously easy - I never studied in high school and got a perfect score on it. The IB essay though... thats not fun at all :-(
On Topic - I would say the Free should be ranked higher than JangBi, even though I think their games are pretty much dead even. Why, you ask? Free has been put into high pressure situations (ace matches) and repeatedly prevailed. JangBi has done well in proleague too, but Free has literally carried his team.
When a team is playing against KHAN, they are afraid because KHAN is good. When a team plays against the Stars, they are afraid of Free.

When a team is playing against KHAN, they are afraid because KHAN is good. When a team plays against the Stars, they are afraid of Free. k, if you just agreed that Jangbi and free are even, you agree that the other team is as afraid of Khan because of Jangbi as they are afraid of the Stars because of Free, if it wasn't for the fact that facing Jangbi in ace is not a certainty, while facing free is, due to the Stars lacking proper depth. In effect, you made no point but a comment on the effectiveness of each team.
As to high pressure situations- whats more high pressure, ace matches on the finals of the MSL? I think it goes without saying...
Edit: I would agree that Jangbi pvt> Free pvt, Free pvz> Jangbi pvz. I think Jangbi's pvz is a lot closer to Free's, than Free's pvt is to Jangbi's however. I also have no faith whatsoever in Free's pvp. He he was a on a six game loss streak not long ago, since then all hes done is beat tt [yay?] and lose to Bisu. He won a PL match against him, so that IS a positive sign, and means that his pvp may get into good fashion, but its simply undeniable that Free's pvp hit a sharp decline two months ago, and we can not be fully confident in its return.
Jangbi is statistically similar, and even had the same result against Bisu, but I think its a different situation. Jangbi's pvp has been going upwards rapidly [he had something like a 67% record after his first semi final against kal in between his final against Bisu], and he showed very strong standard, long game pvp against Bisu. Jangbi lost to risky manuvers, which are fine by Bisu's behalf, but the result in unfavorably skewed against Jangbi as a result of it. Free lost 1-3 in standard games, where he was outplayed. Same cant be said for Jangbi.

Jangbi is like 13-1 since april PvZ, is free really that much stronger? I'm not a fan of jangbi haven't watched his PvZ games so i don't know how well he played, fact that he faced yarnc alot might have something to do with it, but free drops a game here and there also, some vs jaedong but some vs others aswell.. statisticly jangbi's pvz is on fire..
even if he didn't face jaedong, that kind of streak means something
EDIT: Yellow arnc actually played 8-2 his latest 10 zvp if it wasn't for Jangbi.

All his wins are against 2nd-rate zergs except Calm and Yarnc. But Yarncs ZvP is just dreadful, so it's no really that impressive, he just overran them with macro. Uh...outside of Jaedong and July, Jangbi just about beat the entire Zerg race. Is it his fault the Zerg race is now, and always has been, weak save a few individuals who play extremely well? Jangbi played very strong in all of these games, and as sad as it is- calm, shark, magma, yellow, even Gorush...these are what the Zerg has race to offer outside of Jaedong. Free went up against similar opponents and took defeats. He also lost to, and beat, better players [jaedong]. So Im not trying to make a case against Free, im simply saying that these players are what all Protoss face, and the results are therefore valid.

Bisu's last ten pvz. Excluding July none of these players have good zvp. Calm isnt terrible, Luxury's isn't terrible, but they are by no means comparable to the giants Bisu may face in pvt or pvp. Same thing could be found for virtually any protoss.
