Seems like a huge oversight to not include him since he doesn't get to go to EZ foreign tournaments like red bull battlegrounds. Because Classic looked bad more than anything. I won't claim that this ranking is the best, most objective ranking of all time, but I've watched Classic play recently and I haven't been very impressed. It was an oversight not to include him in CBNC, but I wouldn't let him into this ranking when there are players performing well and getting better while he is dropping rapidly and looking bad while doing so. | ||

I agree with Classic missing; I never found his play too inspiring, particularly of late. I am very happy to see Polt! It's hard not to be a Polt fan regardless of what you think of his play. I agree with what was said earlier, Parting's presence is a little bit disconcerting, at least at the bottom; it's been a long time since I've felt super comfortable with getting behind the Conductor... | ||

Yes i know, i think the list is fine overall, i just don't agree with Maru being higher than Flash and Polt being in the list at all. Other than that it is ok | ||

Because surely no one would first say that a player hasn't won anything, then attempt to wave off their ignorance by claiming that the win wasn't legitimate? | ||

I mean, Cure was just a solid Code A player up until his climb into Code S this season. Innovation had the Destiny I win, but he's been shown to be very beatable as well. For all the flak Polt's gotten (I'm a huge fan and I agree he's too inconsistent), he's still putting up results better than the guys below him. | ||

Let the bitching begin: - immediate "nope" upon seeing Rain as #1. It should be Flash imo. - herO shouldn't even be in the Close But No Cigar section. Where's DRG? He's been looking good lately and he even won something. - I'd swap soO and PartinG - Swap Bogus and Cure | ||
