I love MKP since he 1st started emerging on ladder as Boxer. But seriously TL falls for the hype too easily.


We should just agree MVP is the only player to be deserving of being THE BEST player in the world (maybe NesTea at a pinch) and everyone else should be described as the hottest/most in form.

i really hate when casters are overhyping players

There is no question that he is right now.


I question it. He looked very vulnerable in every one of his group stage matches and got eliminated from the last GSL in the ro16.


..eliminated by genius and drg the two finalists.....but I think he is being a bit overhyped right now. Clearly in the best condition in his career, but as always it's too early to call it. Imo the only real 'best' player we ever had so far was MVP pre-wrist injury.


He went 3-2 against Genius on the day he was eliminated, and he later beat DRG badly at multiple MLG events.

I think a better phrase would be "hottest player in the world" since he's been winning a lot lately but it's only been over a short period

Then it's just semantics.

"He is the hottest player in the world"
"He is playing like the best player in the world"
"He is the best player in the world"
"He is the best player in the world right now"

You can twist and bend it until people can accept it but it's still pretty much the same thing unless stated otherwise.

Maru as well. I would say youngest player ever in code S is notable.

If MKP is the best player, then it has to be by a small margin. There's no bonjwa in this game, not even close. Even MVP and Nestea at their best lost too much.


actually mvp at his best had a 71% winrate and won like 6 tournaments in less than 5 months, mlg, code s, blizzcon, wcg korea, gomtv team ace invitational, wcg grand finals

also 2nd code s and to p4 code s in october and november, top 4 blizzard cup


Yeah MVP really had the better showings of all SC2 players. If only his wrists were ok.Nestea is a 2nd one IMO due to him winning a GSL without losing a single game.

This really. GSL Code S is the pinnacle of SC2 competition. If you can't win the gold there then you aren't the best player, end of.

Most important player on a GSTL finalist team.

Best player in the world at this moment? Probably.

He needs to win at least 1 GSL to be called that.

Worst argument in history. It's like saying Lionel Messi needs to win the World Cup to be called the best.

But the highest level of football is at the CL

Cool.


you're a terrible fanboy that blindly disregards every counter argument without actually addressing it

it's really annoying.


He won 2 major tournaments of 2012(Dunno if he was at IEM) and is 4-0 in his group of IPL.


But you could make the same argument for MC, who won HSC 4 and IEM WC, and went further in the GSL than MKP. There is no one player that stands out from all the rest right now.

Also, that Blizzcon montage is sick
