SC2 brought in tons of brand new kids that dont know what the oldschoolers were capable of and all they know is how to scream OH MY GOD EE JAE DONG!!! millions of times everywhere they see something SC related. Then Chill? It's a poll that I doubt will influence anyone else's opinion of who is actually the best. There's nothing wrong with newer fans of SC liking the new players. | ||

Best right now is Jaedong and probably of all time but Nada is right there because he was best for al ong time and he is kinda bad now ![]() A year or 2 of Jaedong owning and Nada sucking then will be Jaedong of all time and noone could even come close 2nd. | ||

NEVER have I seen Jaedong fade. NEVER have I seen Bisu fade. For my limited scope of the scene, ^^ Those two have been the only contenders. Fuck this theory that because JD / Bisu are good now, we vote for them. | ||

Most consistent high skill? Nada, clearly. Highest absolute skill (in their prime)? Jaedong, or maybe Bisu, since the general skill level of pros is so high now. Highest relative skill (in their prime)? One of the bonjwas, since that's what bonjwa means. Biggest impact on the game as a game? I'd argue iloveoov, but there are other good choices here: Boxer, Savior, and old-school players I don't know well enough. Players known for reinventing certain match-ups are decent choices too, like Bisu or Fantasy. Certainly not Jaedong, since no one knows the secret of his zvz, and I don't think he's made a big impact in other match-ups. Biggest impact on the game as an eSport? Boxer. | ||

Could any "best" players from previous years beat them in a Bo5? No. Jaedong and Bisu are the best players of all time. | ||

No. Jaedong and Bisu are the best players of all time. Them being old could very possibly be a factor in them not being capable of beating Bisu/JD in a Bo5. | ||

JD's stats are fucking amazing though - I'm pretty sure no other progamer has has 69%+ win with over 300 games played. Not to mention he holds the "best matchup of all time" title in his ZvZ, somehow beating out iloveoov's godly 27-0 TvZ and sAviOr's unholy ZvP. | ||

Most achieved to date is Nada. Best in absolute skill Jaedong/Bisu/Flash (can be one on one day and one on another) Highest relative skill arguably iloveoov, although this is a tough call. etc | ||

No. Jaedong and Bisu are the best players of all time. Could Your JD and Bisu be able to beat Boxer/NaDa/rA in a Bo5, let's say 2 years ago? No. | ||
