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.

While i have no clue what you are talking about i don't see how it is a bad argument.
Unless you proof yourself at the best tournament with all the best players you simply cannot be called the best.
The only player so far that was called the best in the world has to be MVP before his wrists got worse.

That's what Pele says


I still say we need a set guide lines for calling someone the best in the world.

The player must first win 3 gsls in a row without dropping a game
They must then win 200 ladder games in a row building a raven in all of them.
Finally they must win any foreign lan without losing a single unit.

If they fail at any step they are never allowed to try again and are deemed unworthy of the title


The raven condition applies to all races. Sorry protoss.

Yet, none of the foreign leauges have the production OR the players like GSL.


Yet so many Korean players are jumping to foreign teams. Just sayin'. Its not a "korean wave", its a worldwide wave.

No that's not a valid analogy. Because winning a World Cup is a TEAM effort.

You just don't get it, do you? I made an analogy that most people would be familiar with to make a point. That's why it's called an analogy, not a comparison.

Who else? DRG who loses to MKP? Genius who is super inconsistent? MVP who has sore wrists all the time? NesTea who hasn't won anything in over half a year? MMA who can't beat protoss ever?


There doesn't have to always be a best player in the world.

when you can't make a case for any player being better than another, that player is obviously the best at the moment


Exactly.
I don't get why one has to throw a fit at the mere mention of MKP being the best player in the world.
I have never rooted for MKP, but as you said, you can't make a case for anyone else currently.
Therefore MKP is the best player in the world.
If you're not getting better faster than everybody else, you're getting worse.

While we are at it they also need to juggle with their feet while playing a best of 300 with every GSL player cycling through them one by one then repeating and if he loses one game he fails.

If MKP gambles I'd be pretty sad because this game basically decides who will win, or atleast decides if Prime has a chance of winning.

since when is MKP the best player in the world?
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.


MMA beat MVP when he was best in the world we still called MVP best in the world

Why isn't DRG still best in the world?


Because DRG lost in GSL. Otherwise he still would be. He actually has more than a month of results unlike MarineKing. There is no best player right now.

Really, we should have a rule so that a player without GSl titles can't be called Best of the world.

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.


Yeah i agree. But only because MVP is the only SC2 pro who took one game off Flash in BW.
Does Flash dream of electric Romeo?
