Leta, Midas, and Sea definitely makes it into my top 5 people to never win anything.

Light is GOOD but if I were to put my money down, he would be definitely behind Leta.


That's always a tough one. How do you class a guy with one insane MU, one solid one, and one weaker one versus a more all rounded player. Really hard for me to make a call there overall, can't overlook how good Light was in TvZ, but at the same time he had glaring weaknesses elsewhere

There were probably only 10 Terrans ever worth ranking in this. The ones you left out being Upmagic, ChRh, TheMarine, Silent_Control and possibly Gundam. Maybe a CBNC to Elky

To be fair, most of ChRh's high points were when he was playing random, and even then his best race was protoss IIRC. Definitely wasnt terran though, ironic as that is.

Leta - Overrated as a player IMO. He's a slightly better Really.

Leta>Light

Yes, because statistics mean everything.


So........ Are you telling us that winning more games doesn't make a better player?


You have to put the statistics in context, who you played matters quite a bit. People might look at SK and see his 53% vs T and think "meh, pretty mediocre". But when you look at his matchlist it's something like 75% games versus the big boys: Sea, Flash, hiyA, Light, Fantasy, Bogus. Winning more than half against those guys is pretty damn good.

that's exactly where the ELO ratings come in handy

Nice write-up. Personally, I would put Sea up higher though. He was one of the best and most consistent players in PL over several seasons.

I wouldn't call light an average terran, he had the second best tvz of all time - considering absolute skill, not relative to his time (oov)
perhaps one with "exaggerated traits"

Midas

I really wish he could have beaten Savior after choosing him... I respect him for being ballsy enough to choose him in the first place.
