How can you say that Rain and Life are the most accomplished players of 2012? Sure they did fine in these last months, but hey, TaeJa won 3 tournaments, got a 2nd place, and demolished teamleagues... If you consider the whole year, TaeJa is the most accomplished in my opinion.


Stephano makes a good argument. If I counted right according to SC2earning does Stephano have 10 top 4 finishes in premier events in 2012. I am pretty sure no other player can matches those figures.

He also have a a considerable number of top 5-10 finishes and besides that has he won like 7-8 online tournaments as well. Overall Stephano is the second highest prize money earner in 2012 with 130,495$

Parting is n1 on $130,599 (due to his 100000$ win in WCS).

Rain is n5 with 85k, Life is n6 with 76k and Taeja n10 with 70k.

But but but .... Steohano never won a gsl or osl. So he isnt as good as those guys riiiight. Typical tl kr bias imo. Read trough it, felt like waste of Time.

And im still waiting for the Scarlett game where she lives up to the hype around her. Right now just another foreigner with few/none accomplishments

That is so much more fun than basing ur Argument on facts.

except when you take a look at the actual results, stephano tends to lose to championship level koreans. championship level koreans do not lose to stephano often. that's a fact.
there's a reason stephano does not go to GSL, it's because he knows it's not worth his effort.

So he loses but is still the Most earning guy in 2012 (excluding bwc)...
And i just gave you an example of how supid Your "Argument" was.
He wouldnt have earned so much if he wouldnt have had consistent results.
To now say that some random koream WHO played.good in One tourny is overall better than stephano is pure speculation and biased like hell. The only Part i agree with is hat steph maybe löst his.mojo. But hey didnt everyone said rain will tear apart mlg?

The PR is not a ranking of everyone's chances to win this tournament. There's a lot of bracket luck involved, as well as a considerable advantage given to players who start with seeds, and doing a final ranking prediction would be pretty damn complicated.

Oh puh-leez.
