Well PvP is maybe Bisu's best MU , but all of the six dragons have great PvP and are good vs someone and bad vs the other ( except maybe Free ? ) . Bisu's been known for his PvZ , because he boosts good results in a MU were good zergs dominate it .

How different would this PR be if Bisu had won against Zero and qualified for the MSL? I need an honest answer!

His style is unique and great to watch. And btw Bisu has pretty solid records against all the 'dragons' even stork. I'm not excusing bisu's last 4 pvz losses, not at all. Just the comments about 'lol bisu lost in his best MU to 3 noobs' are really pissing me off.

Seriously.
This is why I think before I speak

Very different. I understand that it seems odd one game could change the Rank so much, but we need to realize the significance of that game

Starcraft is too much of a rollercoaster to make a convincing PR sometimes

It is my opinion that the list right now is an over-reaction to the last week, as opposed to a look at the entire month or whatever period this covers.
That being said, I can't really object to the reasoning, and I like the list a lot.
But I really wonder if someone plays incredibly well for a month and then just so-so for a week if that player would be placed higher or lower than someone who was just so-so for a month but is then unstoppable for the week right before the list coming out.
Maybe it depends if the week includes qualifiers.
Anyway, I also think the list(s) from now on should be dated as opposed to just saying "January Power Ranking." I can look at the first reply to see when the list came out, I guess, but it's not so clear just how far back the list covers.

If anyone is arguing for putting Leta above Jangbi, you are totally neglecting the potential to go deep into individual leagues. There, Leta has shown NOTHING so far, opposed to Jangbi who has MSL Semis, MSL Finals and GOM Semis under his belt. Sea is a telling example of how good a player can be in Proleague and STILL fail to go far into Solo Leagues.

At the top of the screen when you read the Power Rank, the date it came out appears. It also shows it on the main Power Rank page with all the previous listings, I think.

I said it in the old thread that I don't think he deserves 1st just yet. But that he would lack the ability to win an individual league is just laughable. I personally believe Stork when he says that Jangbi is the best player on Samsung, and I think it is only a matter of time before he proves it in a convincing manner. Yeah, it's pretty unreasonable to say that Jangbi doesn't have the skillset necessary to win a title. This is coming from someone who really doesn't like Jangbi, too.
No, that came from me, and i sustain it. I dont hate Jangbi, i even have him in my Fanrasy PL team even though i don't pick players or teams i dont like. But i'm absolutely sure he would loose in a final against any of the top players (JD, Flash, Bisu, Best) and might very well loose against players like Fantasy

Yep. Sea was every bit as dominant in PL as Leta currently is, it happened sooner in his career than it did Leta's (He wasn't on the team very long before he was put in the PL roster), and look where Sea is right now. Struggles in series play
Not to say the parallel is concrete, just noting that we shouldn't get TOO excited.

Btw Steve, while I guess he wont get much credit for that one game, wouldn't it be true to say that ZerO has shown promise, especially in ZvT? It is certainly true that he is inconsistent, but I think that his games vs Flash, FBH and Sea has shown that he is at least capable of high-level ZvT.

July, Kal, Sea, Effort for CBNC IMO

By.great deserves some kind of mention imo.

For the first time I am going to say Excellent power rank

Zero shows something I wouldn't call 'promise'. His career is more lengthy than you might think. He is certainly capable of good play, and he put together a great string of games helping Woongjin take a short-lived #1 in PL weeks ago.
Zero is slowly but steadily learning how to be a top-level Zerg. Whether he will succeed or not, we'll have to wait and see, but from his play you can certainly tell he's trying to lay the foundation down.

Actually PvP isnt the best MU of the Dragons. I would call it slightly the worst. Bisu and Best are really good at it, Free, Kal struggle, Jangbi is ok, and Stork used to be super-strong but recently he lost to backho and some other losses in PL.
Everybody but Stork and Best got very good vZ skills, and even them, mostly Best, are showing results against good zergs. And who has weak vT? Kal maybe? I'd say he's just inconsistent, but...

Wait, you mean the zerg from Samsung? Formerly known as Hades? Why?
I'll grant you he has some strong ZvZ, but nothing else I've seen has made me think he has any sort of league success in his future. Can you point out some recent games that make you think he's worth mentioning? I'm sure I haven't seen all of them, cuz he's played almost nothing but scrubs.
