I'm a huge Jaedong fan, but for this month, I don't think Jaedong deserved a higher place. I'd even swap him and Baby.

There's lots of people in this thread who disagree with me, that one just seemed so ridiculous that it seemed like it was only written to provoke someone.

Also that post was from the guy who made this thread.
So please dont assume I'm one of those idiots who use the word troll whenever they see something they dont like.


I agree. Seemed fair calling troll there. Ridiculous to claim JD is about to become a has been. The guy is still incredible. I wouldn't even call it a slump what he's in right now. Slumping is what Bisu is doing. Or what ForGG, BeSt, JangBi have all done. Jaedong not playing up to his usual dominance is like how Flash was after his 08 tear.

I appreciate these power ranks, but they many times don't make any sort of consistent sense. Like, fantasy was 5 last month, and then doesn't have very many games at all this last month, but is still in both leagues, and people above him don't perform well...and he drops out entirely.

Baby is literally the only person who deserved his rank, the reason he didn't get higher is that he could just be another hyuk or shine. However, his play indicates otherwise but we'll have to wait and see.

No one else deserved what they got this month - people saying sea doesn't deserve #3 are completely justified in saying that. The issue is no one stepped up and said "oh hey I deserve #3" instead they dropped games and fell out of leagues. Sea and Light got their ranks through everyone else simultaneously sucking. I would be far happier if this rank was just 10 Flashes because thats the only ranking that can be justified.


Fair enough

I guess you're right that we can't hold Sea's lack of starleague record against him when all the other top players besides Flash are falling like flies.

Hm...

I would have switched Kwanro and free, everything else is acceptable. Also Hwasin deserves to be at least mentioned in CBNC too~
this is my quote.

actually from TaekBangLeeSsang, Jaedong is the one to drop the most to the OSL prelims (it took Bisu 4 years to return to the qualifiers for example). Its that he is winning the whole thing everytime he makes it to the Ro8

Ro4, but yeah you are right.

Once JD enters the Bo5 stage it's over.

I feel like the Jaedong/Flash relationship is starting to in some respects mirror July/iloveoov.

July was actually the player for whom the term bonjwa was originally coined (by his fans, of course), but ultimately the bonjwas got recognized as Boxer, NaDa, Oov, Savior. Over a 6 season period, July appeared in the OSL finals 4 times and had strong showings even when he didn't make it that far. Ultimately, Oov was just more "unbeatable."

Fuck...

I love Flash, but I don't want that to happen It's not fun to cheer for him when there is no opposing player to at least make you nervous about his games. Jaedong, get back in shape. I need to hate you.
Gravity is just a theory anyway.

Seems like Flash is gonna be a top for a while. I feel that while Light's placement is justified, Sea's too high up. I'm just don't think he played enough games to prove that he deserves third place. At the moment, I think Kal is maybe on par with Stork. Unfortunately, it's kinda hard to tell, since both have been in freefall lately. TT

Well, considering Flash's current form, it's a pretty big achievement nowadays. Personally, I'm not so sure about Leta's placement either, but honestly, there really aren't many alternatives...

I loved reading your Flash description, completely agree.
Flash is undeniably the greatest player of all time.

(i'm not using the B-word here so don't get all riled up, I know how some of you are.)

I know JD fans would hate this but personally I think Baby deserves to be above JD, considering how Baby beat JD 3 TIMES IN A ROW. I mean, can ANYONE claim to have a feat like that, apart from, maybe, Flash? Also, he is in stellar form in the individual leagues. As much as I don't like seeing a name like "Baby" high in the progaming world, that little adolescent teen has skills... I wonder how he compares to the original child prodigy Flash?

I was hoping Hwasin would be on the CNBC, at the very least. I know it's absolutely nothing new that Hwasin makes the Ro16, but goddamn, it's his 10th consecutive time, he 2-0'd his group. I'd say the only two reliable things right now are the Red Sniper advancing to the Ro16, and Flash winning...


Beating Jaedong 3x in a row:

fantasy did it. (proleague finals/Bacchus OSL)

edit: so did forGG (Arena MSL)

so did Hwasin (proleague '08/Arena MSL) - 4x actually

so did Casy - 4x actually

so did Calm (Avalon MSL)

so did Stork (last 4 games)

Stork did it again between EVER OSL '07 and proleague '07

so did free (back in the day) - 4x actually

final edit: That's all of them on TLPD
