Well yes, it is a serious business. That is why there are players. And teams. And lots of money. |

I wouldn't put him in top 10.
why not include him in the 6-10 range? I agree about not putting him in the top 5 but 6-10 is full of blah players. You can make a (weak)case for flash/stork and maybe a few others ahead, but at least skyhigh put up some results.
ok maybe it would put him in 8-10. The fact is it's only a month of starcraft games and many of the 6-10 players have had most of their games against the top 1-5 players. By.Hero, Leta, Stork are good examples. And then theres the people who havn't really played much or got knocked out of the starleagues early by good players, but who are still pretty good, like yarnc/Kal/. Its harder imo, to beat 1 Top 5 player than 3 top 20-100 players and a 5 pool.

1. Jaedong, duh 2. Luxury, MSL win is and MSL win, he wont be anywhere near here next month though. 3. Bisu. FACE IT he LET FANTASY WIN!!!!! did everyone here NOT see him manhandle 4 Terrans in a row in the PvT special match? FLash, Leta, Hwasin AND Nada. He's a beast. 4. Fantasy: showed awesome skills vs Jaedong, but just doesnt have the killer in him 5. Jangbi: Meh meh and more meh, I foresee Jangbi's fall from grace (psuedo grace anyways) he's confidence is shattered. 6. Skyhigh: Mark my words boys and girls, this man will win a title. 7: Stork: God i fucking HATE stork, but hey he got to a finals and can play good, but god i hate him 8: by.Hero: might come back after being shit all over by Jaedong, but who cares, he'll probably just run into someone else who'll fuck him in the ass with a rake. 9: Flash: Still beastly, watch for him this season, something tells me he'll be back with a vengeance 10. Nada: we'll miss you buddy, last time I expect to see this Legacy of a player perform so well |

I think a Power Rank by the real Steve would be just as good. But ok, I will wait. |

| Yeah other writers are competent, one week delay is quite an inconsistency. Good thing there is a break in action right now. |

As it happens, Stork and Flash did play each other a few days ago, and Flash gave Stork a thorough lesson in Starcraft. So no. |

Yes i am aware of that: Did flash make it into a semi? NO. Did FLash get eliminated from two Leagues in two days? Yes. Did Bisu proceed to show all Protoss how to defeat Terran in every single way? Yes. Did i MENTION THAT I FUCKING WATCHED THE TVP GAME ?! YES!!! Think before you speak, now go pack me a cone. |

Stork faced only crap players in the rounds he won (and all round his play has been decent at best recently). This fact doesn't excuse Flash from losing key games, but it does make Stork's semifinal advancement a poor indicator of his actual strength.
Why don't you calm down a bit? Bisu probably deserves spot #3 on the next PR. But Bisu's performance has nothing to do with Stork sucking. |

I really don't care about bisu taking out The Race wars. Lets face it, Bisu Lost to Savior... TWICE. Let that sink in for a moment.
TWICE
He lost 3-0 to fantasy. Bisu Has just droped to many games to even be in the top five. |

I don't even like Bisu, but I don't see any way to argue him being below fifth(and I would probably put him as fourth) thanks to his strong Winners' League preformance along with his OSL semifinal. |

| ah again the double standard... You see JD lost 0-3 to ForGG for the MSL final and got outed from the OSL prelims by han in straight games, for that he was given the #2 spot the next month. I know I've already said this, but I will post it again and again. Some ppl are just looking for a reason to drop Bisu out as soon as possible Last edit: 2009-04-08 00:41:35 |

He was #2 since no one else played better, I mean the other SL winner was July, who ezed his way through protoss that couldn't PvZ. Luxury faced much harder opponents, so it's not the same situation. Also, JD made the finals, Bisu lost in the semis. However, it's not that Bisu's dropping, but more that other players are rising. Oh yeah, but his argument that Bisu should be lower than fifth is pretty ridiculous.Last edit: 2009-04-08 00:49:35 |

more people look for reasons to keep him high =/
bisu earned 4th or 5th place. It's really between him and Jangbi to me. Do you take a strong series against Jaedong and a strong winners' league round finish, along with the crash and burn in the playoffs and OSL? Or do you take Jangbi doing average towards the end of Winners' League, not even getting his team to the playoffs, and making it all the way to the MSL finals? I think that ?Jangbi has a very slight edge there, but it makes little difference. |
