Wrist issues or no, watching MKP actually play, control, macro, micro, I simply see more to like about MarineKing's play than MVPs right now. As far as not winning GSL...firstly, he sabotaged himself a little by picking Parting in his group over anyone weaker, to try and mend relations with Startale, but secondly, all the people who are saying this...I get the impression these people are the FIRST people who would say that winning one tournament doesn't prove your overall level. If MKP had won GSL, I don't believe for a second any of the naysayers would have become yaysayers. I think they'd have just switched to criticising MKPs past inconsistency, and started whining about "Well how long is he gonna stay there lolololololol" MKP has mojo nobody else does right now. Even Bonjwa don't win every single match in their calendar, nobody has any right to expect that of MKP before they'll admit he's good enough to deserve #1, even if its just a grudging acceptance of others opinions. There's certainly no way anyone can say he wouldn't be able to beat MVP in any given series. We all know that predicting an MVP 4-0 is just being way overconfident in MVPs abilities, and underestimating MKP's. Those games could be played a hundred times and it'd be close every time. Very close. Too close. And honestly, what I remember about the GSL finals was Squirtle's play. I think we all know why. Not really. Mvp has far superior TvT and decision making, since he plays excellent Mech. Hes up against MKP with a more than clear record, in fact hes unbeaten against MKP in a Bo3 or Bo5 Both Mvp and aLive have far superior TvT, nobody can win a Bo5 or Bo7 against any of these Mech gods, except maybe MMA. | ||

I like your work in general (making articles etc on the site) but this ranking just sounds like a big fanboy post, nothing else. Remind my words and check the post !!AFTER!! MLG is over: MKP won't win this thing (100 % sure). Mentioning this all-kill is stupid too. He already lost but was given a 2nd chance and everyone knows about it. Its no art and nobody will ever respect that win in GSTL. I like MKP, no grudge against him. But he absolutely isnt the favorite for any tournament on the world at the moment. MVP is the better and more consitent Terran, even just won the GSL and u still put MKP above him, even though MKP is on a big downward trend... this last line i just wrote proves enough to show that that MKP#1 thing is just stupid. Besides from that thanks for taking the time to make an article on the site in general =) Yeah, but MKP has crazy success at MLG's. Including arenas, he won 2 mlg's in a row and then came in 2nd to DRG in the third one that he entered. He deserves to be #1. Also, MVP isnt in MLG. -_- | ||

I'm thinking it'll be an open bracket ROOTerdam vs. MLGKingPrime in the finals. Still, the sheer amount of SC2 packed into this one MLG weekend should be insane. | ||

Also quite funny how you bash the second best protoss player in your tournament as a completely average no-threat player. And: EG has the third and fourth best Protoss, does that make them the team with the best protoss lineup at MLG? | ||

Its natural to be a bit pessimistic with Oz these days, especially with his latest performances. Foreign ground was never really his thing, and he keeps to upset big players at GSL, though. I could care less, as long as he helps fnatic next week vs Prime. The GSTL s in Korea, and he should be comfortable in that environment. | ||
