Looks like Fitzy should have been on the list.

I had SaSe higher, (way higher, actually) but as consolation for dropping him a bit, I get to do his write-up.

You have to be kidding. MKP is nowhere near a Bonjwa. I dont think you even know what that word means to be honest.

Seriously, why do people call DRG or MKP the best/potential best player in the world when MVP is still around? The two of them are no more dominant now then he was at his height last year - they're less dominant if anything - and he is still winning championships.
MVP has consistently crushed MKP on the biggest stage in GSL (going 8-2 in finals games), and to my recollection, he's positive against DRG in meaningful series/games as well. (Don't quote me there)
Starcraft II isn't in its infancy anymore and people need to start looking at the big picture, rather than the last two-three wins when determining the top player rankings. (Obviously, MVP isn't attending this MLG, and I'm speaking to the comments about MKP being the best player in the world; as well as the guy who called him a bonjwa) (lol)

Lets compare MVP's major accomplishments to MKP's.
MVP: Seven major championships, including a record four GSL's.
MKP: Two major championships, including zero GSL's, and a 2-8 record against MVP in GSL finals. (Relevant to point out because we're comparing the two of them)

How many times have we seen an elite player drop off for months at a time - or all together - after tearing up a tournament or two? MVP has been winning tournaments for a year and a half now, and what are his low points? Once or twice (tops) falling to code A? Playing through injury, and mostly against protoss - his worst matchup - he still took down the most recent GSL.
People need to stop calling MKP the best player in the world based on his two tourney wins, and consistent play alone. He might be nearly as consistent as MVP over starcraft two, but for the longest time he was known as the guy who was a guarantee to choke in the finals. MVP has never had any sort of negative stigma associated with his name aside from morons calling him out for not macroing in 100% of the games he plays.
During MVP's aleged 'slump' towards the later part of 2011, he still came second at a GSL, and got to the round of 4 the next time around.

This isn't an MVP fan party, it's simply reality. He has won more tournaments, made more money, and has been more consistent than anyone else in starcraft two, period. It's not debatable.

Also, going back to my point about him throwing in cheeses and all-ins nowadays: Remember last year when he was known as the hands down best macro player in the world? Yeah, it's still the same guy.
