Not counting YellOw, I'd say either Sea or Jangbi but it's quite hard.

Voted on Sea.

Its funny how Light is 3-0 vs Jaedong this season yet has a loosing record vs Perfectman lol.


Is Perfectman really that bad? Isn't Backho worse?

Look at the title more carefully, it doesn't say: The most undeserving starleague champion:-))

p.s. Partially just kidding


Casy is the most undeserving champion, imo. Calm is is on par with Mind and forGG.


How the hell did Mind and fOrGG not deserve their titles? Seriously, fOrGG went through Sea, Kal, Flash and Jaedong with the latter two in Bo5 wins. Calm also beat Jaedong in a ZvZ Bo5. If anything the only "undeserving" champions (if there even is such a thing) would be Luxury and July's 3rd OSL.


Hey now dont be throwing punches at july his ZVP stood the test of time and he definatly deserved that golden mouse, Not sure if u know how long julyzerg was top of BW for definatly a bonjwa of the oldschool starcraft.

Almost everyone will written 'lose' with just one O. But in the form 'losing' it seems very weird (like something is missing), so they add additional o there. And almost always you mean just one o there .

Kinda weird to spell "losing" as "loosing," IMO.

I kinda infer that "losing" means to lose, whereas "loosing" means to loose.

A quick Google search of "loosing" reveals the definition:
loosingpresent participle of loose (Verb)
1. Set free; release: "the hounds have been loosed".
2. Untie; unfasten: "the ropes were loosed".

Jangbi doesn't deserve it anymore. His debut was incredible, but it only lasted until his MSL final against Bisu. Midas, Light, Leta, FBH, etc, all probably deserve a title. They were all incredible players in their hey day (some still are).

But still, Sea is definitely takes the top spot. He's just never had that string of luck you need to make it through to the trophy. He's got everything else.

Ya, but you are native speaker (probably). I was making this mistake some time ago, too. But then my friend told me about it. I can't explain why losing seems weird. Of course, loosing means something else.

Yeah, Jangbi lacks to consistency to get the title of best without a title, barring him losing this OSL and following it up with another monster streak. However, there's nothing that can be said about Sea or Light that can't be said and more about Iris (in his heyday). Leta and Iris, however, are pretty much even. Amazing players that have taken some tough losses, though I give the edge to Iris both due to personal bias (he is my favourite terran all time), and the fact that he seems to be more affected by living in the shadow of monsters (playing in the era of Oov and Savior isn't an easy feat) while Leta, as far as I've seen, Ends up beating himself more often than he is blocked by his equivalent to Oov and Savior in Flash and Jaedong. I could absolutely be wrong, I have a bit of rose colored glasses and due to how I followed the scene, I definitely saw more of Iris's good than bad back in 2005.

It's just sad that Sea has never won...he's appeared in so many Ro16s, yet has been so unlucky all the time. I'd say he'd be one of the best players never to have won a Starleague.

I always thought Zero was the best player to have never won anything and then he wins a 2nd. Which is good enough for me x)

the answer is definitely not sea (iirc he only got 1 ro8 in starleagues during his whole career)

jangbi is probably better than everbody because basically in finals he run into a rampaging bisu or luxury who played some of best zvp ever in history at that final

I always wanted FBH to win a big 1v1 title...just so I could see what kind of victory dance he would pull out. We all know he would!
