Anyway, Lyn was overaggressive  Definitely do not agree with you. I'll go 1. Moon 2. Grubby 3. Sky Essentially agree with original post, Lyn is great but not on the level of the above three. I'll go with Creo, Fov or Lyn afterwards. I still don't think Lyn is top 4... defintiely Top 10 though. Happy to see Lyn Grubby and Moon really starting to make an impact in SC2, Grubby and Moon are both playing very well in NASL so far and Lyn hopefully can make a strong impression too  What about ReMinD? Highest level since the beginning of TFT means nothing?
I think Moon and Grubby have been revolutionary for their respective races, and I think that counts a lot when evaluating this kind of stuff. Remind is a very skilled player, but falls short on that category. Hell, everybody else falls short on that category when compared to those two. My ranking is 1. Moon 2. Grubby (interchangeble) then there is the rest

Because Jinro would've taken Clide out if he'd been able to play him. TvT is his best matchup.

Fruitdealer is supposed to be pretty good. Check....probably not

Check is pretty bad at it, and FruitDealer is amazing, he hatched first once vs a 6 pool on Jungle Basin and won easily.

"Dear GOMTV.net users:
Ever wondered what players are doing when they are not playing StarCraft2?
Now you can stop wondering! GOMTV will now provide documentaries (video footage) of GSL StarCraft2 players!
A new player will be on the show each week so be sure to check out our GOM Cam section for the videos.
Documentaries will be available for all GOMTV.net users.
Thank you.
GOMTV.net"
Just read this, gomtv is really stepping it up even more, no one can touch gsl in terms of tournament quality, why cant we have tournaments like this in the west =(
Oh well players are better in korea anyways so id probably still watch the GSL more, im so happy with GSL (i always have been) but since january they have just gotten so much better each season there is a huge improvement. Ill keep paying forever and ever if they keep it up!
Thanks gom i love you guys <3
after seeing tournaments in the west (NASL) i realise how spoiled i actually am to beable to watch the GSL it really is the greatest starcraft 2 tournament ever!

I don't know, he is definitely very good, I always felt he was more of an online player though, correct me if I'm wrong but he didn't generally have strong LAN results (which were a lot bigger in WC3 then they are in SC2).
I'm not going to list all his offline achievements but he won WCG 2010 and Blizzcon and he's currently dominating the remaining online tournaments.

The speed of other units is irrelevant, he was asking how to deal with muta.
i was saying that no matter what zerg will hit and run with any unit(except hydra) especially now with how the mu works now. And every other coutner unit prot uses is slow as fuck...doesnt mean you dont use them.

Long time I played WC3 but wasn't ShowTime also top results/game-influence/legendary status wise? If I remember correctly he was 1st, 2nd and 3rd place on KR Ladder in same time and won OGN, etc? Or I am terribly mistaken? No one mentioned him.

Lyn won Blizzcon 2k9, EMS 2010, ESWC 2010 and I think a couple more tournaments I can't remember at the moment :S Only two players I can find an argument valid for the 4th spot, those being Infi and Fly100% Check -_- I guess it depends how you look at it, for me the team competitions (eg WC3L) were so much bigger in WC3 that it actually matters - FoV and Creo probably get a bump up from me just for helping 4K maintain dominance for so long. But fair point.
Yeah, I was thinking you were thinking of the good ole' 4K vs MYM vs SK days
