Let's hope FOX doesn't disband ;;

But I'd say Kal or Zero. (Zero just showed he can have good zvz)
The other players, even when they were playing well, had at least one shaky match-up.

I think you can argue that Zero or Sea is the better player... but Kal, hands down, has been most consistent in individual leagues without winning

I hope ZerO does win a starleague and gets out of that list anyway.

About Sea and Kal I don't think they actually have a chance to... Oh well maybe Kal has (but he needs to stop sucking and get out of slump T_T)

Iris for sure
High APM is when your marine gets 3 stim packs instead of one.

For their respective races, it's pretty clearly Jangbi, Zero, and Iris. Sorry Sea fans, but he was never expected to be good in individual leagues anyhow. These other three put up amazing performances in individual leagues and only Zero can be considered a choker moreso than someone who just ran into other players who were too amazing (and even Zero had the misfortune of running into Flash). Sea is clearly a choker in individual leagues.

If I had to choose one it'd be Jangbi -- 2 silvers and about an entire year of completely disrupting TBLS as arguably the best player of the five when he was at his best, and that's why I put Jangbi ahead of Kal for protoss. Kal's been pretty consistently good, but I don't look at him and go "how did he never win a league?" like I do Jangbi.

I put Iris over Midas because, while both of them had the misfortune of running into Savior, Iris pushed forward to make another final and just happened to run into a zerg who wouldn't be denied a title in GGplay (Same can be said for Jangbi and Luxury).

There are tons of zergs who have been more consistent/better than Zero over a long period of time, but they all happened to win titles. Zero may very be the next random great zerg to win a title in the vein of Effort/Calm/Luxury/Hydra (I'm not saying they're bad, I'm saying there's a bunch of damn 1 title zergs around).
Remember Violet.

Best was a PvT wonder, abusing your easy match-up can help you become an undeserving winner just like Casy. thanks to July, it didn't happen!


You... do realize that July abused his ZvP to win that OSL, right? He played Rock, BackHo and BeSt from the Ro8 forward.

I completely agree with this, only that if I had to choose one, it would be Iris. His game 5 against Savior and the epic series against GGPlay, he was just too damn close and better over a longer period of time in my opinion.

He's referring to the period when OGN trademarked/tried to trademark the term 'starleague,' so MBC couldn't use the word starleague for MSL.
