How can you vote for nestea when you almost NEVER see him play?

He plays fucking 5 games a month that we actually see, basically ONLY in GSL, where recently he has been knocked out within the first two rounds almost every time?

Idunno, i've been hearing a lot from this zerg named rozero1234... goes by the call sign CarlSagan. But i voted that the throne is empty since there is no definitive best zerg yet...

Sen might have better ZvZ. Overall Idra is absolutely better than Sen. Nestea has to be consider better than them all, though, based purely on results over the past year.

Can I just say that this thread is awesome?

That being said, I truly believe that the poll is accurate. The throne is kind of empty. Lots of dominant players but still not one person who sticks out as much as like Jaedong would for BW.

Also, it would be GREAT, just TOPS, if the same OP or another person could do the exact same thread for Terran and Protoss. That would be amazing, checking out all 3 threads at once and seeing who's on top and who's not

Lol, I think Sen is better than IdrA over all, macro may be not, but better in micro, not a-move as much as IdrA, and better manner lol.

Nestea just showed us why's he a king.

Pointless. It'd be MC and MVP.

Kings, like the name suggests, place well in tournaments with consistancy. July got 2nd once. Nestea has not achieved King, not even prince like results lately. Losira won Code A, but that's it, he won the qualifier to Code S, a qualifier. Sen has not placed well in anything lately, neither has Idra.

Until a zerg does as well as MC/MVP, there is no king.

None of the top zergs are innovative enough to posses the throne. The true zerg king will be able to direct the flow of the game, so that supposed imbalances cease to exist.

The two IM zergs seem to be on another level to me, both are capable of winning GSL titles. One already has. Top foreign zerg is Dimaga.

Seriously? I mean he may not be the Zerg King but he is undoubtably the best Zerg outside Korea and in Korea he got ro8 in his last Code S run and if you have been following him you would know that he has improved quite a bit since then. It's not a stretch at all to say he is one of the top 3 Zergs in the world or at the very least top 5.

For my money NesTea is probally the best Zerg in the world atm, IdrA being 2nd... but I'd really love to see the two play in a show match,

I wish it was IdrA but I guess the title goes to Nestea, he deserves it.

Just like to say I love this topic. Very nice openings post.

Personally I think the throne is empty, every Zerg who once occupied it seems to be in a slump currently.

I'm rooting for July or Losira to show an impressive run this season in GSL.

So what it's still a tournament with heavy competition and he won it. I actually consider that "qualifier" more prominent than say Dream-hack which MC won or just about any invitational due to path in even getting there totally based on merit and slugging through prelims. Next up is his GTSL performances with all kills against outstanding players. His ELO and ladder rankings. He's an out standing Zerg. (note I'm not advocating king, that's Nestea)
MC for president

The true king has wisdom as well as power, so Idra is out of the picture.
Koreans are gods, not kings, they don't belong to this world and if you pray hard enough you might even summon them.
Therefore the throne belongs to Dimaga.
