I feel like this thread needs bumping:

+ Show Spoiler +
With IdrA taking 1st in the ASUS ROG tournament this past weekend, I thought this thread could use some bumping. It seems like a tradition with all the "Who is the _____ king?" threads.

IdrA played great and according to sc2earnings.com, he's now 11th on the all-time SC2 prize money list:

http://sc2earnings.com/

(And he's still only the 3rd highest earner on Evil Geniuses. >_<)

(I'll give you 3 guesses on who the other two EG guys are. >_<)


Long live the king?


Lol please don't joke around. =(

Idra is so far from being the Zerg king... =(

^Also SelecT is not exactly the best terran either. He's good, but he's not the best of the best like MKP, MVP, etc.

stephano is the zerg king
Have you considered the MMO-Champion forum? You are just as irrational and delusional with the right portion of nostalgic populism. By the way: The old Brood War was absolutely unplayable

Zerg king is still very much not Idra if thats what youre getting at. I think Nestea still holds his spot pretty resoundingly with maybe DRG as a challenger. Even just looking at foreigners, I'd personally be inclined to give it to Stephano over Idra. Though Idra's really really good and certainly could have that spot.

MKP is way over rated and isn't even Code S quality really.
Somewhere, something amazing is waiting to be known.

Idra has had a pretty good run in the past 2 to 3 months. But his consistency is not there like Nesteas has been for months.

Nestea is a god but I think DRG can surpass him in the next year.

Nestea is without a doubt the zerg king.. I don't think there's any space for discussions right now.. the fight for elder and younger prince though... that's hot right now, really hard to tell.

Geez... does anyone even come close to Nestea? The only reason he loses is because there were prolly 10 people trying to team up and make build's specifically to snipe him and he wins most of the time anyway.

DRG is up to par in his ZvT with Nestea, Idra can Macro like Nestea, Coca can play ZvP better than Nestea, but none of these people have all of the above and just an untouchable ZvZ (no one even close).

Conclusion: His Nesteaness has no weakness. To beat him in the GSL you need to be MVP or MMA.

NesTea without a doubt. IdrA as the foreign Zerg king.

I'm actually surprised IdrA has more votes than DRG, and to a lesser extent losira

I see Nestea,Losira and DRG ... but what as Stephano done to put him ahead of Idra ? Idra has done it longer and better ... Stephano is nothing special


Nestea is without a shadow of a doubt the King Of Blades .... and I dont see him being unthroned until A. he starts to fall off B. BW players do switch or C. DRG figures out the game the way Nestea has and puts those mechanics to better use

No way Stephano is better than the top korean zergs. All this Stephano hype is starting to be annoying.
