Definitely Sea, just looking at his record make you think why this guy haven't won a single StarLeague.

Gotta be Kal. The dude will knock your favorite player out but will inevitably donk and lose in the semis. He's not in great form now but a few months ago he was pretty scary.

Kal should have won vs forgg with that genious scout build. just amazing game, shame he lost. He is such a great player

That was a Ro8, now way kal could've beaten flash, much less Jaedong in Bo5s.


hey that MSL he came closest to beating forgg out of everyone

last OSL, Calm came closest to beating Fantasy, but no doubt in my mind that Stork deserved it more than Calm.

I always fealt Baby is too reliant on his multitasking and dropship play. Any zerg who has "enough" multitasking, like Jaedong, will beat him. (forget the korean air osl)

It used to be Fantasy by a huge margin. I would say right now Kal is the strongest contender, even though he's slumping like crazy. If we look back in history, it's Jangbi for sure. This guy had a crazy 80% PvT winrate at one point. He's got the 4th best ELO vT peak, only Flash, Jaedong and Yellow being better. His PvP was also the 2nd best after Bisu during the Dragon era.

The next non-winner who will win though? Stats, Snow, Bogus, Reality and Soulkey are good candidates. I would probably put my bet on Snow.

When they are at their best, I would say Baby or Light easy.

For overall performance, including consistancy, I might go with Zero (thinking more currently) or Kal (thinking more how has he done overall, excluding current performance... man used to be a beast lol).

My heart said Baby though, so I voted that. :D

#1 or #2 of their race at some point:
+ Show Spoiler +
Sea
Zero (although he's clearly capable of it in vT/vP..)
Kal
Midas
Leta (maybe)
Jangbi
Iris
Light
Best
Baby
Free

Semifinals + Finals Losses:
+ Show Spoiler +
Sea: 0
Zero: 2 semifinals
Kal: 2 semifinals (I think?), 1 finals
Midas: 1 semifinals?
Leta: 0
Jangbi: 2 finals (3 w/ GOM)
Iris: 2 semis, 1 final
Light: 1 semi
Best: 1 final
Baby: 0
Free: 3 semis

note i started following in late 08 so these might be wrong

so by this arbitrary measure it should be free/jangbi/kal

god that is a hard question, i think leta and kal is defenitly my choices, but which deserves the most i can't say, i think kal is more consistent and could probably be the one to pull it off, but i always love watching leta play, his one of my favorites. but if i could have my dream finals, it would without a doubt be Firebathero vs Leta

It should be YellOw, but since we cannot vote for him....

I'm going for Sea or Light. Zero really deserves a title as well. Free really deserves one as well since he was insanely good during the time he reached the semi finals 3 times.

Obviously Sea. Sick PL win rate, but just can't find it in the starleagues.

I would have to say Sea. Sea has been one of the better (and at a time, best) players around for like 6 years now. His staying power in the scene is incredible.

I am a big BeSt fan, but tbh its definitely Sea/Kal. Either could arguable be the best, but I'd have to side with Sea. Sea is a very solid player, and isn't wish washy like many of the others.

Definitely Kal, his past 2 years have seen a lot of deep appearances in leagues, just usually blocked by JD and Flash.
I'm going to sleep, let me get some of that carpet.
