This is like the least I've ever seen the rankings change.
Of course, as soon as I wrote that, I realized that was mostly because of the month off, and the changes were likely due to old points rolling off. T_T

not recently... eliminated on both MSL and OSL without advancing a single step, and just recently losing to BoxeR in Snickers... his only outlet now is the SKY Proleague.
hmm Reach @ # 7 doesnt have dat much points ahead of # 10, I'm afraid Reach cant hold the ground for P any longer and there will b no toss in top 10 =(
I like not seeing T at the top so all the protoss noobs will stop whining about how unbalanced everything is They'll be forced to explain why they suck some other way
Kespa is the stupidest points index ever. Xellos is good, but putting him #3 is a joke, since WCG clearly shouldn't be worth so much. Same with Midas's #2 getting him so far.
And kingdom is ahead of at least 4-5 players that would outclass him to the point of rape in any series, and have been winning more consitantly than him in all leagues for about a year.
I just can't take Kespa seriously anymore...the point system is so arbitrary that the whole ranking becomes meaningless.
jesus christ do you people still complain even when basically nothing changes due to vacation month

yes which means kingdom and nada will probably drop even more
and all the xellos complainers will have to wait until WCG rolls around again before he like even drops out of top 10 (meaning you don't need to complain every single month until then -_-) and notice even without WCG xellos would still be ahead of like boxer,
and WCG is a pretty big achievement as people like nazgul have to remind every now and then (heh and looks like he posted right after i said this o_o) i mean there's like 6 rounds of all tough korean progamers even if you like qualify for the main thing
didn't nada and boxer both get like eliminated from OSL/MSL too recently well boxer got dual i think and nada still has to play there too so meh
kespa is still pretty damn accurate for 1-year holistic rankings and its tough to rate them anyhow
Keep in mind that Kespa is a ranking of how good the players did over a whole 12-month period. While Kingdom might have sucked for half a year, he probably still has points from a bit before he went into the slump Kespa is not a good ranking of "current" bests, as in who performed the most over the past few months. It's a year long thing, so people have tons of points for things you've already forgotten

WCG Korea should be worth alot (every korean pro plays it), and then WCG finals should be some ok points too. maybe they got a bit too much but not that much off.

No he wasn't. Last time Nada was ranked #1 was in July 2004

wtf man ? WCG Korea is hell of a lot hard to win. I mean it does not have the rellevance of OSL OGN or MSL but hell, when you look at the brackets it's like ,,, Imagine you're Nada:
<NADA> FEW ! Shit. I just defeated Yellow, now I have to face Xellos and if I beat him I have to face either JulyZerg or GoRush.
