This was the best power rank writeup ever. I will now shamelessly sig your description of Best and tip my hat to you.

i'm glad you realize that you are completely unqualified to make any statement about leta, but then proceed to say he doesn't deserve his PR spot.

awesome.


I was pretty much asking "are there any examples against S-class players?". Geez no need to get so uppity about it.

At least I'm not shooting people down without trying to at least point them in the right direction (well, at least not here).
Woof, I'm a cat.

Go watch the game vs guemchi. Then also keep in mind that Guemchi was 3-0 going into this game.

Then watch the rest of the match.

Leta is terrifying.

Thanks. Appreciate the reccomendation, good sir.

Edit:
SPOILERS FOR THAT GAME I GUESS
-The first push didn't really look good for either player, but all that dropping was really nice. For -Guemchi's first push, there were like 5 or 6 SCVs right next to each other, but instead the reaver he dropped kills the vulture and only 1 scv.
-And I really liked Guemchi's cannons: they totally kept Leta from completely wrecking him. Oh wait...
-Reaver drop lol. Nice 1/2 scvs taken out.
-12nex got so raped... by 2 vultures haha. Not even talking about all the prove kills from the vult raids, either.
- 17:50 in and he, guemchi, FINALLY adds some form of defense to one of his bases, omg.
- 19 in, nice static defense guemchi, it really saved your ass on that one. Oh wait...
- 22:20 in: LOL good luck guemchi.

Looked more like Guemchi's loss than Leta's win. No anti-raid cannons at ANY base, hell no forge that I saw during the whole broadcast. Good for Leta to see that and just keep up the agression, but damn. I'm a D- terran who tries protoss once in a while, and even I put a few cannons at each base.

I'll be sure to check out the rest of the matches like you said, of course. But do they get any better than (my impression of) this one?

I've generally agreed with the Power Rankings the last few months (even Jangbi at #1 was okay considering the alternative), but this is a really poor ranking. Sorry. Pretty much everything is off.

you proven that you have absolutely no knowledge about pro sc scene, all of the previous PRs were way off at some points at a time the 1st place at onther time the 10th sometimes many ranks. I, and many others, believe that TL did not see a so accurate PR. Period. Dont get me wrong i like FS and Oneother, these ranks and the explanations are justifeid. As it was said at the start it focuses more on PL cuz nothing really happened besides that. ofc some places can be argued, but that doesnt mean they arent justified! Anytime 9th place without any SL perfromance. BUT, yeat again read what Mani linked in his first description ffs....

Really great PR, funny, in time, accurate, congratulations

No disrespect FS, but I think this PowerRank was a lot better thought through and at the positions where I had doubt/different opinions, the arguments behind it had me nodding, sometimes even agreeing.

Yeah, I like the choice of people on the rank, although the order - as always - could be questioned.
Good, clearheaded choice to put Anytime on the rank and Jaedong at #3, solely for the huge threat factor that he is towards anyone.

GJ!

When I first saw this PR, my first expression was: "HAS FAKESTEVE GONE MAD?"
I then looked at who wrote it was was even more shocked "HAS MANIFESTO7 GONE MAD?"
Then I was told to calm down and read the PR. After reading it, I have no complaints...

Epic epic work Mani Best PR in a while
Are you for rela?

I, for one, was really impressed by how Leta sniped Free's probe that was going to build his 4th like 5 times even through Free's whole army. In the end Free had to bring 2 probes at once and babysit them with his whole army. I think the other one of those got taken out either way.

I like how you judge people based on fear. July Zerg is a man to be fears, as is Anytime....

I can't find any flaw in your rank or your reasoning.


I tip my hat to you sir!

Nice rank however i think anytime is unjustified. He has only beaten Jangbi that is on the current powerrank in recent games. Beating players like haran boxer oov odin and FBH(PvT) isn't enough to get the spot i'd rather give to for example upmagic who's looking stronger than ever on a 17-6 record since 16th november.

But then again, sashin might be a player darth vader picks only cause he's biased towards death..

According to Reach, he is the fastest learner he has ever seen. He start bw only like 2/3 years ago. Infact, his bw history knowledge is so limited, he didn't even know what the map Guillotine was.

Because he's an idiot. This one is spot on. Leta is owning the shit out of every one. Bisu going 6-0 in a night is statistically unlikely even if he's 4:1 favourite over everyone he faces. That he did, plus what he did to skyhigh, assures any doubts there should be about him. JaeDong is an easy #3 for most scary and we simply cannot deny JangBi's results, nor the quality of the gameplay he shows to get them. And just the idea of FlaSh is scary. He's a monster.
This is spot on.
