LosirA or July, right now those 2 are the best. I feel LosirA is more consistent.

Outside of Korea, probably IdrA. Even with the (international) tournaments that he doesn't win, he's pretty consistent in being the highest ranked non-Korean Zerg in the tournament.

If you consider Korea, however, IdrA is definitely not the number one Zerg.

...which is silly. No zerg is consistent enough and all of them aren't particularly strong compared to their terran and protoss counterparts- RESULT WISE.

As for all you idra haters. Just three words

Haters gonna hate.


Your first paragraph perfectly sums up what the "IdrA haters" are complaining about in this thread.

No one's hating on IdrA just because they don't think he's the best Zerg in the world.


To be honest I think people hate Idra's ignorant fanboys more rather than Idra himself (who isn't that bad in all seriousness)


I tend to agree with you. I like IdrA a lot as a player, but I would hate to get associated with his fanboys.

lol @ Idra leading.

pure fanboyism...

Nestea is the best atm, followed by July. Following is a bunch of zergs: Idra, Dimaga, Fruitdealer, Losira, probably even Kyrix, Zenio or Morrow.

I do not think that anyone can really be considered the king of zergs right now. Sure Nestea and some others may be the best, but we have no Jaedong in the SC2 scene right now.

Personally I think that IdrA, Nestea, July and Sen all have some really high potential towards going far. But each has a fatal flaw that is holding him back.

If you don't think idrA deserves to be at the top (Not saying he should be #1) then you are stupid and blinded by hatred.

IdrA or Nestea, i`ll have to vote IdrA simply because i don`t get to see much of nestea other than GSL.

Consistency. July does really stupid things at times and Losira seems like a worse version of Nestea to me.

I would like to say that I do not think "The throne is empty" is a valid poll option. In mathematics, there is this thing called Zorn's Lemma which says that any set with partial ordering (in this case we can using any "X beat Y" argument as a partial ordering on the set of all zerg players) has a maximal element. Thus the king, being the maximal element, must exist.

It is Nestea.

It is Nestea.



X beat y is meaningless when it happens over 4 months ago, when the entire premise of skill levels is completely different.

Hypothetically, If Fruit Dealer had won the first 3 GSL in a row, then got knocked out in the first round every time in the following GSL, is he still the "king of zerg" because he has the best results from long ago?

Sen is last for ovious reasons, Sen isn't voted for much because he isn't the Zerg king, simple as that and any votes in his favour are biased. However he is still one of the absolutely best zergs in the world, just not nr 1.

Sen is the ZergKing, literally haha.

but joking aside, I think Nestea is the best player on a bit of a cold streak, while Losira is pretty close to Nestea but only because he's on a hot streak.

Yeah we saw Idras consistency against MC on Xelnaga Caverns in Dreamhack invitational...

July was in the finals of last GSL, he literally destroyed half the foreigner team in the world championship last month, and is now in GSL Ro16 without a loss. He may be playing a risky style but so far he has been quite consistent tbh...
