as (I believe) Elentos said earlier in the thread, the bracket was really unfortunate ; Classic got PvPed out ( ) and a lot of solid players got their worst match-ups.

Stats has indeed fallen far. He's still very good of course but no longer the best player in the world, and even best Protoss is arguable. herO and Classic have both been doing pretty well recently, though.
Trust seems to be having something of a surge, though I very much doubt it will be enough for him to beat the top-tiers.
