MMA and DRG are even on games both internationally and in korea. I wouldn't look too much into the first gstl ace match since they were not fighting on even grounds. MVP team back then was still weak, and DRG has to play multiple matches with map disadvantages. MMA indeed has a slight edge due to the blizzard cup finals, though it came down to only 1 game difference. Well finals is still finals i guess, people look at the champion and forget the runner-up.

Right now, MMA is more accomplished than DRG with more championship titles to his name. However, DRG did clinch back a bit of points with his current run. Blizzard cup runner-up, King of kongs, FXO invitational series, Winter-arena runner-up, came out ahead with toughest code s line-up ever seen, all these over a span of 3 mths. MMA also has a slightly weaker match-up compared to DRG.

It's too difficult to differentiate them who is the best. Let's just say they are top 2 in the world right now.

Eh, its a tough call between MMA and DRG, but I'm glad we can agree the IM era has ended. DRG is certainly on a hotter streak right now, but MMA has been producing results for a longer time. It's a tough call. Personally I favor MMA right now because he's been consistent for as long as he's been in code S, always making it to at least the RO8 whereas DRG up until recently was a major disappointment (in code S at least) or failing to qualify for code A.

Numerical rankings are kind of silly though, Tiers are more logical. If you look at Flexis' list, how far apart are Ganzi and Supernova really? The list puts them 4 ranks apart, which is a much larger sounding gap than the real gap between their skills. DRG and MMA are in their own tier right now. Players like Ganzi and Supernova are in the same tier too.

Just off the top of my head, I'm sure you could argue some people up and down this list. And it's only the 20 players Flexis listed:

Top Tier
MMA and DRG

High Tier
MVP, Nestea, MC, MKP

Mid-High
Leenock, Genius, Jijaki, aLive, GuMiHo, PartinG, Oz, Supernova, Puzzle, Ganzi

Mid
Sc, Fin, Curious, Taeja

I'm really impressed by oGs, I would though they have been doing worse. 4-5 is an honorable feat (btw I fear MvP will be team DRG when protoss will not be as good in the metagame :D).
They would have need a MC to close the deal (a good old 2 base all-in that kills even the best zerg in the world), too bad they couldn't use him (because he's no longer in their team, and wasn't in korea anyway ).

And, seriously, Inca vs zerg what was TheWind thinking -_-

Hmm these results were unnecessarily close for MvP. No Genius, sC or TAiLS? I guess that shows how much faith they have in Dongraegu, who by the way is now a blistering 20-2 in the GSTL for his career.

The best player in the world does it again! It's a good thing drg skipped iem because MVP needs him for the vegas trip! Also, this frees up DRG to go to MLG columbus now as MVP advances to the ro4! Now hoping Prime wins tonight so MKP can also go to columbus cause if prime loses he'll most likely skip out on MLG to play in an elimination gstl match that weekend.
Top 10 favourite pros: MKP, MVP, MC, Nestea, DRG, Jaedong, Flash, Life, Creator, Leenock

Team DRG too strong.

That being said good showing by hero but it looks like MVP is finally starting to get some depth to it's line up.

Disagree on this.

I'd put it more like:

Top Tier
DRG, MKP, MMA

High Tier
MVP, Nestea, MC, HerO, Jjakji, Creator

Mid-High
Leenock, Genius, aLive, GuMiHo, PartinG, Oz, Supernova, Ganzi, Polt

Mid
Sc, Curious, Taeja, Puzzle, Symbol, Seal, Bomber

this is based on players' actual skill (so that includes team leagues and not just GSL)
Don't let those anti-cheese advocates tell you what to do. Rush to meet life head on!
