Stephano doing well on ladder? OMG STEPHANO IS THE BEST FOREIGNER OF ALL TIME. Hero wins his first tournament ever? OMG HE IS THE BEST PROTOSS IN THE WORLD. Naniwa won like 5 matches at Providence? BEST TOSS IN THE WORLD HANDS DOWN. It's really silly. There's no denying all those players are really good, but just because someone does really well at something recently certainly does not make them the best. While that is true this is quite different tough. We are not talking about silly ladder rankings or a winning streak. Leenock always looked great ever since GSL open season 2,remember him and clide on skakuras back then? It was awesome. For some reason he had terrible luck with the players he went up against. Now we seen him doing 34 - 5 sets at the most stacked MLG there is and taking down MVP, the claimed best player in the world. While saying he is the best is still early its not the same in competition/consistency in examples. | ||

To me it looked like the wall wasn't tight and he lowered the depots when he saw the lings slip in. | ||

I need to watch the Vods. Oz losing is no surprise though Jkaki is pretty awesome. | ||

Yeah, MMA's TvZ has got to be better, because he's got amazing Zerg practice partners like Min while MVP has to practice with Nestea and Losira. (Although I think you're right, MMA's TvZ is pretty amazing.) | ||

The consistency isn't there. You can call it bad luck, I call it not being able to handle the top players (until recently). Leenock is definitely on a hot streak right now, but to call him the best in the world over someone with what..9 championships in 2011? Silly. | ||

Silly. still I think and I gues you wouldn't argue, that it is damn impressive to have a 16y old getting such results. How can you be consistent if you're still that young. I wouldn't call him best at the moment but he is THE Player to look for in the future for sure. So, not the best but the one of the most noteworthy. | ||

Actually scratch that. I don't think he would beat Leenock anyway, and now he has successfully avoided the GSL 2nd place curse. | ||
