Hwasin will never win anything -_-. I'm still mad about him losing to Jaedong in Arena. That proved to me that even with the red carpet in front of him he'll never win a league. The game on COLLO!?!?! When he could have just freaking killed everything by going into the main with his first MnM force or at the very least shut down the third hatch and instead he just focused on a single lurker egg and got owned?
And then losing to the 4 pool because he delayed his rax a bit -_-;;;;;;;;;
As soon as Hwasin faces anyone half decent and there is a tiny bit of pressure to win, he'll lose. |

But if there's any better time to be playing, it's now for Hwasin. Less terrans and protosses out there, more zergs to kill. While his TvT is mediocre, his TvP is decent, despite his 48% win rate. It hurts when you've played Bisu 17 times, yet only scraped out 5 wins.
Zergs have gotten better lately, but I feel as long as Hwasin doesn't all in and fuck up early game, his TvZ is absolutely stellar. Some of the best bio play in the business. |

| Poor power ranking, Bisu loses only one Bo3 for the month you put him at 5th, when he remains closely tied for 1st ELO rated and has been for a long time. Jaedong drops to 4th ELO rated and plays mediocre and you put him at 2nd? What a joke |

It has everything to do with how they looked in their games. Jaedong is a recent golden mouse winner, it's gonna take a bit to push him down. Bisu didn't accomplish anything incredible in individual leagues last season and has played poorly in Proleague.
ELO/KESPA Rank are things I doubt riptide takes into heavy consideration.
It's fine to disagree, but insulting people who put hard work into contributing to TL is a douche move. If you put in 1/16th of the effort riptide does into making TL a great community maybe someone would take you seriously. |

I'd say most of the 5th place is due to the best-of-3 loss against a previously unheralded Zerg in what is/was supposed to be Bisu's best match up. Bisu hasn't played poorly in PL: he's 5-1 and was 4-0 when the rank was published, although the only good player he'd faced was SangHo. |

| I think Jaedong's placement was just meant as a nod to his recent golden mouse. Nobody argues that his performance last month was better than Bisu's. |

Don't knock Sangho, in his game against Jaedong he was taking out like two scourges with every corsair he produced.
That's some sexy micro.

Wemade vs KT PL spoiler:
+ Show Spoiler +Violet deserves a low spot on the PL next month IMHO. 6-0 in proleague and just overcame Mind map imba in a sick sick game. At twenty minutes in, he was in this situation: one of his bases got emp'd and nuked (rather cost-effectively i must say) while the other was harassed to death and his fourth was getting pushed on. Solution? 3 cannons and 4 goons clear out 15 vultures, abandon 7 o clock ground zero spot, and stasis 9 tanks and storm 5 more to crush the push with a numerically even army. That is Flash-level decision making and nerves. |
