Rain > Hero MVP > Symbol Leenock > Taeja Life > MKP Ro of 4 is: Rain > MVP (as sad as I am to say it b/c MVP is my favorite player, with Rain becoming my favorite protoss - he is hands down the best stormer on the planet) Life > Leenock Finals: Life > Rain (I hope Rain beats Life - however - with the slow moving ball of death with spines, infestor and brood lord - what can beat that? I cannot yet think how a toss can overcome that and break it. Toss air is SO weak its embarrassing to even built carriers or void rays. Even with a perfect unit composition the fungals, neural on mother ship, infested terran and brood lords raining hell down - that combo is, as of right now, impossible for protoss to beat. You can play well all game like Hero did vs Leenock and still lose to that combo in the end. As I said, I'll be rooting for Rain or MVP the whole way. | ||

It's still to early tell since we havent seen enough of him but still, I think by.Rain very well could be that. From what I've seen from Taeja he seems to be very weak against mid/late-game harass in TvP. I'm not sure if it's the multitasking or something else, but it is something. Anyway... imo there is no clear contender for the title of the best sc2 player atm. | ||

Taeja is really good, and certainly among the current top line with Squirtle, Seed, Symbol, Leenock, Byun et cetera, I don't think he's the best. Yes, he crushed a lot of mostly foreign tournaments lately, and his all-kills against e.g. IM was impressive, but the competition for the "best player" title is just too ridiculous, especially with the godly Rain descending from the heavens of BW to stomp some SC2. Let him win at least one GSL before deciding, okay?  | ||

Look at the Korean win rate in ZvP then say that again -_- | ||

For the longest time Zergs complained the same thing about vortex (to no recognition from toss players) and now that it is happening to toss players it is quite funny ^^. | ||

The mothership is not a fun unit. I think it's bad to make one unit so very important - it's the same with colossus, I think. They should be smaller, do less damage and be cheaper. | ||

I think Mvp could win the next 2 GSLs and people still wouldn't predict him to advance. I personally think it's between Mvp, Rain, and Life Taeja doesn't have a chance in hell of beating Mvp or Rain in a BO7 in the finals IMO, and he'll be lucky to even advance pass Life (I think that's a possibility, but again I don't think he has a chance of doing that + winning the finals, just won't happen period) | ||

I just have a Protoss bias  | ||

I just have a Protoss bias as a terran player i never knew why zergs don't just split up their brood lords more. for kespa zergs my guess is that late game zerg in ZvP is nothing like late game zerg in BW, but as for non-kespa zergs i'm not sure. I think part of it may be that if u spread them out too much then they become less effective and can be picked off, which is true to some extent, but when they just don't split them at all when a mothership is near im just comfused | ||

HerO v Taeja (Oh come on what did you expect... gogo Team Liquid finals) Rain v Life (Royal Roaders FTW!!! Plus these two are the ones going in with the most hype) MKP v MVP (I would only like this if MKP wins 4-3 in one of the most epic finals imaginable Leenock v Taeja (epicness producing epicness to create epicness!!!) Although these are my top picks in terms of games any finals this season would be epic! gogo Liquid! gogo HerO! | ||
