I really loved to read the TL Power Ranks and I also enjoyed to discuss about them with other TL users. I always looked forward for them when TL was about to release another power rank and as soon as I saw they were released I read them instantly :D PLEASE TL, bring back Power Ranks <3

These power rank posts are stupid and pointless.

That's why we love them, and discuss again and again why obviously, Innovation deserves a better ranking than Soulkey

Bring them back!

I thought about starting a thread about this yesterday because I looked forward to them so much, but I went full coward mode and didn't :p.

But +++++ to OP, Power ranks were my favourite re-occurring text based thing on TL.

ELO rank just doesn't cut it, its effected too much by "easy" online and foreign tournaments.

I don't think it'll be the same without the 1, 2 and 3 spots reserved for flash jaedong and bisu for months at a time

but I support it

Yes please, I take every chance I get to argue why Jaedong should be ranked way higher .
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

I think that's an interesting idea with some merit, but ultimately pointless. At any point the only really 2-3 good foreigners, and the rest of the pack is very muddy and fuddled.

Maybe that's because I only really pay attention to the Korean scene though.

well therein lies the problem? if you dont follow the foreign scene of course you wont be interested and of course you wont be able to tell the difference based on minor event results... its like me saying they shouldnt do rankings of cars because im not into cars all power rankings are "pointless" and a matter of opinion, its for fun and debate though

Power ranks are amazing and generate a ton of discussion. Most of it admittedly revolve around saying that Taeja is ranked too high due to Liquid bias, and complaining bitterly about it in the time between Power Rank and Taeja winning the tournament, but they are a ton of fun.

One thing about an SC2 power rank is that how would you differentiate between those who are successful in foreign tournaments and then those who are successful in Korea?

I'm definitely a huge fan of bringing back the power rank though!

I guess you could split them up if you want to be boring or you could do all people in 1 power rank to make some juicy drama

Only when we can put Taeja at rank 1, otherwise we won't get to enjoy laughing at people accusing us of TL bias
