man, with this new wave a tosses, top terran and zerg players will really have to start brushing up on their vP^^ Some of them are just plain sick. Pusan, Anytime, and now IntoTheRainbow are all amazing. Of course Reach is still there ( although he could be doing alot better.) And we all hope Nal_Ra comes back~_~ I really, really expect to see some good things out of IntoTheRainbow but right now he just isn't as solid as pusan, anytime. I have a feeling that in 6 months or so, Rainbow will be some insane competetion.
Also, im in a great mood because boxer is playing better then ever. He is constantly improving the basic aspects of his game while still having a big micro and creative edge over the competetion;)

Xellos will stay exactly where he is if he wins the WCG final as his points from last year drops off and his points from this year replace it
I don't get what gorush has done to warrant him moving up. Is it because of proleague? Because all I can remember of him during the past month is failing to qualify for everything t.t

Well, WCG is 300 points I think, so I guess a starleague is more or less the same?

Yeah, I wonder too. Maybe that's because of Kespa's calculation system, which is based on the last 12 months and Gorush did better in October this year than he did in October 2004 :D

If proleague counts then nal_ra would be top 10.
Fact is, gorush didn't really move up. It's just the guy above him went down as his points dropped off after his accomplishment a year ago no longer has any effects.

@tfeign Do you understand how KESPA works? Last year's WCG points dropped off in October because WCG 2004 was in October. They're not in for the November ranking. This year's WCG points are still up for grabs and will REPLACE the points he just lost, kicking him back up into the #2 spot when he wins.
Well, WCG is 300 poitns right? That would put him above July. I also think there aren't any leagues cept survivor league that counts now right? So.. I guess depending on their respective perforamnces... Xellos has a very viable spot for #1 right? Cuz I'm not too sure on all this.. I'm speculatin with the info ihave

certainly not, it was an INVITE tournament

so were KT-KTF and snickers star league right?? and they counted? or no
and xellos will probably jump to #2 if/when he wins WCG
and also has a decent shot at claiming #1 later
as someone already said he will not one's kespa ranking is composed of points a player has accumulated within the past _12_ months. every month you lose your points from 13 months ago and get the new month's points (if you indeed got any). so he would lose the points he got for winning wcg2004 and gain the same amount of points for winning wcg2005, resulting in +/- 0
Yeah but Carnac, he just Lost the 04 WCG points, so on NEXT month's, he will regain them (assuming he wins of course)... so right now he's in the hole, next month will bring him back up to where he was.
Decent chances? Not likely. Chances? Of course. ForU has been known to completely dismantle Xellos at times before too but I have a feeling the current Xellos won't be like when ForU could just tear his Def apart. Even still, it's not like ForU consistantly won. Control.. I give no chance in hell although he has shown some sexy TvT before... I mean.. Xellos is in tip top shape, maybe not relatively speaking but not only is he very consistant, but I'm sure he will come with practice... If past WCG's weren't enough to think Xellos will be near untouchable, I mean, even Blizzcon showed the gap between K and non-K is quite big.
Nooooooooooooo Raaaaaaaaaaaaa why r u still dropingggggggggggggggggg. OMFG snap out of it god dammit he been drop from like top 3 and now out of the fucking 30. Holy fuckaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
