I saw this mentioned in the LR but the Korean Protoss are starting to shape up like the Six Dragons of Brood War.
Squirtle, Parting, Seed, Creator, MC. Not sure who the 6th should be. Hero. Or Hero. What are the 6 dragons of brood war? But I do dig that list of protoss so if they are like the gym leaders of Starcraft count me in!

Between late 2008 and mid 2009, Bisu, Stork, JangBi, Kal, Best, and Free were at the top of the KeSPA rankings and were the best Protosses, and the best players, by a decent margin. It wasn't necessarily that PvX was imbalanced either, because if I remember correctly, none of the other Protosses really could pull off any significant results. Legend of the Fall dude.

Never could find what's Legend of the Fall. The belief that come autumn, a Protoss player will rise above his opponents and his race's troubled times, to capture a Starleague title. Garimto vs Boxer SKY 2001 Reach vs Boxer SKY 2002 OSL Anytime vs Boxer So1 OSL Stork vs Fantasy Incruit OSL Jangbi vs Fantasy Jin Air OSL 2011
There are more, but those are the only ones I could name from memory (and with some BW Index help) since they're all pretty famous OSL finals. And they're all the ones in which SKT1 Terrans have lost.

Yeah, lets be honest, ManZenith should be all 6 protoss dragons. :/

Toss op!!! jk, but seriously this kinda makes all the random buffs and nerfs for z and t seem silly when toss has been a consistantly strong race for a long ass time and hasnt been changed since...amulet? Apparently maps are really important to balance, who knew?

Sadly I agree. I wish there was a 6th but it just isn't meant to be at the moment. Maybe Oz will win OSL though, I always liked him for some complicated reason.
Nice that 4 of the 5 best Protoss are in the WRO4 though. I don't think these upcoming PvPs will be of much help when it comes to ranking them against eachother but I think the matches should be great (or atleast 10x better than the GSL finals).

Kal's win record there wasn't exactly amazing. Surely Parting must have like at least 56% win rate for all GSL based tournaments.

I assume you wanted to say "...look towards himself as the best..."
Thanks for the writeup as usual! There's a ton of mistakes, but the guy writes a billion of these a week so let's cut him some slack
