Stork climbs on top of KeSPA ranking
The Korean eSports Players Association has published October’s edition of their StarCraft rankings. On top of it for this month is Song “Stork” Byung Goo, but only 2.4 points ahead of Kim “Bisu” Taek Yong.
The KeSPA ranking one of the most prestigious rankings in competitive gaming in general, even though it is only for players that play in professional StarCraft leagues in South Korea. Regularly televised, those happen to be the most lucrative and the most difficult in esports.

The current top 10 of the rankings is as follows:
1. Stork (+1) 1728.3 points
2. Bisu (-1) 1725.9
3. sAviOr (-) 1570.5
4. IriS (-) 1387.8
5. Hwasin (-) 1307.2
6. Sea (+1) 1202.9
7. NaDa (-1) 1193.5
8. GGplay 1173 (-)
