Notice: in April we had Proleague finals and ODT. Jaedong dropped from two ODT losses because there are no other leagues, and thus they had far more weight. He is ranked 7th on ELO, which is much more accurate than this.
Some interesting movements this month. Bisu back in the top 10, Woongjin Zergs in top 5, and Action, Soulkey, Bogus, and TigerToss all moving up significantly. Speaking of moving up, Grape and mini (28 places wtf) take the cake.
Wat? Every month I'm always like "Hohoho Sea is still in the top 10." He went down from 10 last December to below top 30 in 5 months!? Actually, there are only 2 pal geim dan players within the top 30 . And who would've thought that the top 3 zergs are going to be SK, Zero and Action(or that the top 3 of each race has a KT player in them )? And those tosses Horang2, Grape and Mini with +11, +22, and +28 respectively. Well, whatever. Less games, less Kespa ranking makes sense.
I assume June ranking will put Jaedong even further behind, damn sad way to finish a career. But who after all didn't go that way? If I were sure BW to be 2-3 more years, I could have said this about Flash one day too.

After some months, the question would turn from "Who has the most points?" to "Who still has points left?" I mean, just look at this http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/players/kespa_ranking.php?section=korean&year=2010&month=9&action=Update same guy, almost 4300 points back then, 1100 points now. Flash winning the OSL will definitely make the most sense, being the last OSL winner, last and most kespa #1, most golds etc etc.

this would be correct only if stork wouldn't exist and that won't happen ;]

Savior was actually still good, he just threw away games for $$$
No he wasn't. He started slumping hardcore in 2008 and had one hot streak in early 2009.
Savior was said to be still unbeatable in practice when he was throwing away his matches.
He only played 3 games in January 2010, before the scandal occurred, and he was more of a ringleader. He sucked for two years straight and ended his career on a 7-game losing streak, so I don't think you can defend him based on rumor that he was "unbeatable in practice".
so, i was reviewing my liquidbet and was totally unaware of the recent results (mass dota oblige) wtf ... jaedong lost ? My world is crumbling beneath me
I'm so proud of my little Hoejja! MY favorite player now 15! (well was 14 lol) but doing it without OSL boost and performing well throughout the playoffs!
