Anytime fought GGPlay and Yellow (the only 2 zergs in his path to the title) but they were not bo series. If I remember correctly, he beat Yellow by cheesing; the game against GGPlay I don't know what happened but GGPlay is far from a top zerg. Again, they were just 1 game, not a bo series.
A group consisting of Xellos, Pusan, Casy isn't exactly that hard. Casy has one of the worst TvP. His TvP record when he qualified for Shinhan OSL was something around 25%. Xellos is the guy Anytime and Pusan picked as the "easy terran" who they think they could dominate. And if you look at Anytime's performance in proleague since winning starleague, he's been doing terrible. I think, although I may be wrong, he has yet to win a game in proleague following his OSL win.
Still, his OSL win is impressive. He came out of nowhere and won a starleague before the disbelief of many. But consistency is what makes a good player great. Anytime to me still needs to prove this part of the equation. So far since his OSL win however, I'm not too impressed, although we'll have to give the guy more time.

Hmm, reach's list seems so feeble, yet he seemed to play such a big role this year. Maybe it's cuz being the only protoss hope during a few months doesn't count..
on the other hand, NaDa's list is far more impressive than I had in mind.

tfeign, you just seem to like to bash Anytime. Granted, Reach deserves A LOT of recognition, but his 2005 year wasn't so great. Also, NaDa did have a very great beginning to 2005, but he seemed to fade an Boxer, to pick up. NaDa probably deserves the Terran MVP.
Also, July is untouchable in the Zerg ranks.

IPXZerg- He plays a mean zerg and almost never makes mistakes.
Pusan- I love his style and hes coming in strong.
Boxer- He almost won another Starleage.

edit: I voted for Boxer already, but then I saw Live2Win's stats
Nada has actually achieved so much more than Boxer in 2005.

LiveToWin: Oov: 3rd place Cyon MSL, and 4th place in UZOO MSL.
EDIT: And Pusan fits the Protoss list much more than Rainbow imo.(4th So1)

putting boxer or oov over goodfriend is a terrible mistake.

Based on accomplishments the best T should have Nada, I think people voted for Boxer because he's popular and has been doing better in the last few months. But Nada did better for all of 2005. Yearly awards usually go like this though; stuff towards the end of the year is remembered better and hence counted more than stuff from near the beginning.

How well did July in SO1 OSL ? I dont really remeber.
