Hmm, I have been persuaded. Bisu should be above JangBi for July. But if I were flamewheel i would have to stay my hand and think awfully carefully about placing Movie or Horang2 above the Almighty King of Storms.

| I'm pretty sure I'll be putting JangBi above Movie or Horang2. That picture pretty much sealed the deal. |

So you can be swayed by pictures?
Interesting.............

| although flash is still the obvious best player i don't know if he should be even on the power rank if he's effectively on the disabled list for this month |

excellent. let us remove him from the list so I dont have to see his name. Now we just need a convoluted argument to get bisu to first |

Being on the disabled list didn't stop him from winning MSL... THIS MONTH. |

| but that's not the point of power ranks, it's about a player's "power" going forward, and all flash will be powering this month is a medicine ball to strengthen his right wrist. how can a player have power for july if they're not going to play? |

| Flash will be playing in OSL. Just not in PL. And it doesn't make sense to put him on the PL roster anyway since KT has long since lost any chance at top 2. In terms of playoffs, there's no difference between being rank 3 and being rank 6. They are guaranteed to be top 6, guaranteed to not be top 2. What difference does it make whether he plays or not?! |

pretty sure whether a player can play is innate to power rank placement
i had assumed he wouldn't be playing until next season but if he (or his team) forces himself to play in the osl/playoffs then that's obviously a different circumstance |

Mortality, why did you bump Bisu back to the 4th spot all of a sudden when you were placing him in the 2nd spot for most of the month (even after the prelims)? His game against Hiya pretty much confirmed that he has the best PvT right now. Meanwhile, Jaedong has just been owning Terrans as usual. Impressive, but not enough to warrant him being placed above Bisu. If JD faced Bisu and beat him, I would definitely agree with him being above Bisu but as it stands, he still hasn't proved himself in ZvZ and ZvP this month. Hydra hasn't really done anything spectacular either.
Right now, this is how I would rank them: 1) Flash 2) Bisu 3) Jaedong 4) Hydra 5) Jangbi 6) Movie Haven't given much thought about the placement of the others.Last edit: 2011-06-27 19:48:07 |

I LOVE your ranking <3
Sadly many will disagree, cos JD is in the OSL and Bisu isnt.
But PL man, PL!!! xD JD was on the worst losing streak in his entire carrer earlier this month, Bisu owned everything up (other than 1-2 the OSL prelims)..  |

Well, with my ranking I counted going up in individual leagues a lot more than a lot of other people. That's why I put Jangbi above Bisu, and Bisu's not going to rise any further in my mind until he starts going far in the next MSL or something.
PL monsters remain just that this month: PL monsters. |

People who say Jangbi hasn't played anyone should watch some of his recent games. No, he's not beating the cream of the crop, but you can see that he's simply outplaying his opponents. You don't get the sense of "oh my god he won but they both look horrible" after watching. His game has been quite clean and crisp. Basically he's playing at a level you'd expect from one of the best BW players.
That said, Jangbi shouldn't be above TLS+hydra. I'd be quite happy with him at #5 though, and wouldn't mind him a bit lower if there are some other players who've been hot lately. |

He is the best PvT. And the best PvZ. And he and Horang2 keep switching for highest PvP ELO.
The more I think about it the more I consider that even a slumping Jaedong can consistently make the semifinals and that Hydra has the best overall tournament record of anyone in 2011. And both of them are playing really, really good right now. |

My personal PR would be like this:
1) Flash (he is playing badly due to his injury but still, he just won 6th gold) 2) Yellow (he deserves this spot once again, for the last time ) 3) Jaedong (yes, the beginning of his month was very bad, but he went to a nice win streak after that and was able to beat Flash twice (have 4 win streak against him)) 4) Bisu (he was knocked from OSL, but very strong in Proleague) 5) Hydra 6-10) Jangbi, Hoorang, Zero, Movie, FBH in some order |
