It's end of the first month in the new year with KeSPA being released. A lot to say as the ranks have a huge twist, a lot of players moving up and down the ranks. The Protoss continue to dominate, but for how long? The Zerg and Terran are really doing well, it's really an exciting moment to see the Zerg and Terran make a comeback.

Oz is still in the number one position but surprisingly enough they had a name change, now known as Hwaseung Oz. Things are looking up for Oz as they continue to dominate the ProLeague, with players such as Jaedong, HiyA. Samsung KHAN is right on their tail with a ratio of 62.5%. MBC HERO seem to be doing poorly as they dropped 4 ranks within two weeks. Other then that its been pretty stable so far.
