MKP has to be the most chronically overrated player within SC2, both Ryung and aLive have shown much better play recently, to say nothing of the other races.


That guy won 2 MLGs, placed second in another MLG and was besically the reason why Prime won GSTL season 1 earlier this year. And the 2 years before he was able to reach 3 GSL finals. Another point is that he´s in the OSL RO16 and he´s been in Code S for all 4 seasons this year.

Also he´s one of 10 guys who won more then 100.000 Dollars in prize money in SC2.

How exactly is that overrated? A guy with these kind of archievements has to be one of the top favourites going into any tournaments.

You'll have to excuse him, odds are he's regurgitating Idra's statements, who seems to have something against MKP.

It's time for Revenge of the Terrans!

TvT finals, I'm calling it, right here, right now!

But, seriously, even though not all top tier player are participating, this write up still tells there are a lot of good players out there. It's going to be epic :D

This Power Rank is brought to you by the word "stretch"!

Good rankings, although I'd place HuK a few notches up, above sheth and suppy.

I don't see how listing Marineking's entire career of achievements is relevant to his current form.

It's amusing you give him credit for Prime's victory in GSTL when it was quite clear PartinG was robbed in the final.

MKP going to put overrated taeja in his place this MLG. MKP let taeja play in the sandbox for a while, while he laid dormant these past 2 months, but it's time for the true terran king to return and cast aside the false king known as taeja.

Putting JYP so high is a disgrace to many players. Since joining EG (and even before), JYP has never impressed me, 3rd place a HSC being his only high place finish in a low pool of koreans. Like it or not his PvT is still very weak and his other 2 matchups are not as impressive as before.
MC ■ MarineKing ■ LosirA ■ To someone who has lost after trying his best, no words from the winner can console him.

MKP, if he gets far, will show off new builds. I guarantee it. Maybe even if he flounders, it will be in a new way. I expect he has been working on such during his 'break'.

would've liked to see crank over a few of these players, but since you take in tournament placings I understand (he's not really attending much is he?)

putting MKP above stephano? Nah. Right now I think MKP deserves like a #9 or something. he hasn't been doing that well

Great write up although i dont agree with a couple of your rankings. But i will have to say one thing: Youre hyping stephano too much. He only has to show for his good pvz and people are figuring that out as well. Losing to mana and other foreigners as well as koreans. I think that number 3 on a mlg power rank isnt deserved at all.

lol not surprised to see the liquid writeup put liquidtaeja at #1... Even though in both of his tournament wins, he didn't beat any "big names" except for MC. Team leagues don't mean much. Look at where symbol, moon and life are. They're winning every GSL aren't they.

We didn't see Crank in the list of players attending. I would have personally put him about 16th if he is indeed attending. Similarly, we weren't sure who the IceCream that signed up was; he might have made top 30.

Btw, I like how some people are arguing Stephano should be higher while others way lower. ^^

Also, Taeja at #1 isn't biased at all. I don't even understand how people can argue that with the players attending MLG. Maybe if MVP and Seed were attending....
