The equality is that those players in the up'n'down didn't throw away their games. Simple as that.

I heard beating the dead horse will change facts?

Because the GSL is out to get Naniwa right? Take it elsewhere...

I would say I expect to see Creator coming right up like the way Leenock just randomly won MLG. The kid has some sick potential.

huh, do the managers turn up the heat much in the Gom studio?

Parting probably has the best PvT of all toss players. Sage probably has the best PvZ (at least in practice). Out of all protoss players he probably has the best chance of winning codeS.


uh, MC? It's look like he's got his form back lately, and MC on his game is definitely still one of the most dangerous players in the world. I realize his "just go fucking kill the opponent" style isn't as flashy as Hero's ludicrous multitask, but damn if it isn't effective when paired with MC-level timing and mechanics.

MCs PvZ isn't very good though. He the sort of player that can beat any player but his style brings a lot of variance.

Since the first poster quoted said "in practice" to justify Sage's PvZ, I think it's also safe to use MC's practice here. Stephano showed on his stream that MC is just on another level, especially in practice. MC has also said that he is more confident in PvZ, because he has "figured it out". Then, DRG said in the BlizzCup interviews after he beat MC that he expected MC to win the whole thing. That considered, and after watching Oz's atrocious PvZ vs Curious (considering Oz is the closest contender to Protoss King), I think it's safe to say that MC still is the best at PvZ.

MC did not have very good PvZ a short time ago. But the boss is back.

/fanboy

EDIT: And the poster first quoted said something about Parting having the best PvT. Considering we've seen a total of 2 PvTs with him vs other pro Terrans in which he won (and one was against TOP...), I don't think he can be considered truly up there. As far as PvT goes, MC has always been at the top, although Oz is also pretty damn high too.

You can say that yes.. But it's actually hard to point to a player that is definitively better than MC in PvZ. I mean... Hero, JYP, Huk, and Naniwa all have these weird losses to zergs that are just absolutely terrible. Maybe Brown, but we haven't seen enough of his games. Of course, if you point to each of the players in their best form then you can say they're better than MC, but it's just so damn inconsistent to say they're better definitively...

EDIT: Speaking of Sage (in practice), I remember watching him take on Stephano and he would be repeatedly destroyed, but as time went on you can tell he was giving Stephano a harder and harder time with Sage finally taking games with a far better PvZ than when he started with which he would demonstrate against other streamers like idra.

Well I guess that settles that with Hero. He's not code S caliber and worse than many Korean protosses. Luckily for him he has the support to fly out to foreign events and win more prizes.

MC has some sick fanboys lol.
His PvZ has been woeful for ages, is barely 50% in Korea, he'll need to do a lot more to convince me he has the best PvZ in Korea, although he obviously is playing better lately.
