Used number of individual titles as main criteria, prominence of the title and how advanced was BW at the time as tiebreakers. I think what is most important is how the player compared, in terms of number of titles, to his contemporaries, i.e. to those who had similar fundamental conditions (training time with good partners, knowledge of build orders, motivation etc.). If this generates a tie, then prominence of titles should be checked and, if a tie is reached again, how complex was the meta at the time of titles, which I measure through the age of the game itself.

I can't complain about the Terran and Zerg picks in the OP but I feel like somebody being squeezed out of the Protoss top 10 to make room for Rain is necessary. What an absolute beast.

I didn't put much value/weight on the post-KeSPA era in my rankings. I just think that the absence of team houses and the practicing environments they established were extremely important in bringing up the full potential of players with respect to their eras. If I'm not mistaken, in the early 2000s up until BW went ASL, team houses were being utilized. Now it seems like a player's practice is hindered by their family life, streaming duties, etc. This goes especially for former pros who are just older and have families they need to tend to.

With that being said, I think if Rain had prospered a year earlier in the KeSPA era, he probably would've been an OSL/MSL champion. What I'll also say about Rain is that he's one of the few protoss players, alongside Stats and Classic, who were great in both SC2 and BW.

Jangbi's peak PvZ is closer to Bisu's than Bisu's peak PvT is to Jangbi's. As for PvP, I don't think it matters since it's strangely been Jangbi > Stork > Bisu > Jangbi

Why not, the reasoning is ok to me, still pretty tight imo, I was surprised with the "easily" word.

Judging strictly by talent level, I'd say it's somewhat "easy". But if you include career achievements and overall stats, then it's not "easy" anymore. I'd say Jangbi's peak showed his ridiculous mind for the game and overall talent in macro, micro and being able to use the full arsenal of protoss units to dismantle the best zergs and terrans alike. I don't think any other protoss player even came close to that level (maybe Afreeca era Rain?). Jangbi truly embraced the strength that is the protoss' race unpredictability by being good with every unit the race has to offer. It's just sad that he struggled with confidence for the vast majority of his career
