The '''PMRank 2017''' was the second annual [[PMRank]], ranking the top 50 ''[[Project M]]'' players in the world. It was announced in a series of [[Smashboards]] articles, published from January 22nd, 2018 to January 31st, 2018.

==Methodology==
The rankings were created by a group of a little less than 20 panelists comprising of tournament organizers, community leaders, and top players. The panelists were tasked with ranking the players on a scale of 1 to 10, with 1 being the lowest and 10 being the highest. Initially, 77 players were qualified to be ranked, but only 50 made the final list.
