While usually they intertwine, there still is a difference between a top rate player, and a DJEtter valued player.
Everyone has their own oppinion, and its important that we make sure that opinions are opinions.
While last month when the power ranks were new I wouldent argue with you. But if you check now for Savior it says that If there was a savior slump, its over now.
I think the Power Rank is going to change drastically.

If Iris plays like what he has done in the games vs Savior this season, a in-shape GGPlay will rape him 3-0 definitely There will not be another 3-0, IF the finals will be GGPlay vs Iris, it may turn out as the best Bo5 set since this lame season Ro4 sets started, they were all quite disappointing.

This bandwagon is ridiculous. I used to like Stork before I saw all that hype around him growing up >.>

If Flash makes the finals I give him like 20% or less to beat Iris. I really doubt a 14 year old kid is going to beat the veteran Iris who also has the best TvT in the world in the OSL finals. The kid is gonna crap his pants and even if he doesn't it won't matter.
If GGPlay wins then I think it will be really close, especially since GGPlay only has to practice for terran from now on, albeit terrans with different styles. Although Iris looks like he really really wants this title but I'm sure GGPlay does as well, he just hardly ever shows emotion.
GGPlay vs Flash I'm going to say is 50-50 but that's only because I have high regards for Flash right now so I hope he proves something even if he loses.

Yeah it propebly will change now but one of the reasons that it will is iris beating savior even if savior played shit in the first and third game ._. I could have just said "two players who before the tournament were considered propable finalists"
My experience is that Iris always does well when the stakes are high. In last osl iris was considered a good TvTer but not much else by most people here. No one expeted him to win his quarterfinal but he did, then got savior to the fifth game in the semifinal that he might aswell have won. After that he raped Casy 3-0. I bet he would have won over nada in the final if he had a chance.
Maybe Iris doesnt show much in the offseason but I think its a good idea to fear him in the finals if he reaches them. And its about time he gets a title. He deserves it.

protoss players win pvt with build orders all the time, 2 fact terran is much harder to execute than any of the number of ways a protoss can gain an advantage through builds against terran.

yay Iris, too bad I didn't have the faith to vote for you in liquidbet

So I went to bed at 8:30 PM last night with the goal of waking up at 2:30 AM to watch the games and then writing up the PR immediately after the broadcast (I was very tired and wanted to watch the games live, anyway). I set two alarms.
I woke up a little after 4:30 AM. Both alarms had been turned off. I have no memory of waking up at any point before 4:30 or turning off any alarms. My roommate didn't stay here tonight, so he didn't do it; I must have been more tired than I realized.
So now here I am, lurking this thread until my man yakii comes and saves the day.

I hope you dont let savior drop too far down the PR ;e Remember his games vs Stork and the 2nd game vs Iris... Hes not as consistant now but he can still shine.
