This is not the place to talk about LoL viewership.

This is also not a place to caster bash/balance whine/flame, etc.

Please don't argue about how many views LoL has, or which game is better, or we will be upset.

Also, lay off Scarlett please. (added page 227)

Stephano, the best foreigner in the world vs the best player in the world. This is JUST AMAZING!


We can call MKP the best player in the world when he wins a GSL.


You sir, have retarded standards.

Na, when he wins the GSL then he can be called the best.

Till then we'll see how he does.


So if someone hypothetically outperforms GSL-winners in more tournaments than vice versa(tournaments that mostly consists of the same players at the top), they can't be called the best because the name of the tournament is wrong?


The format matters.

In GSL, you know your opponent in advance and can practice for him, plan for him, and your condition is great and you can show your best.

In other tournaments, other factors than pure skill come into play. That's fine, there's nothing wrong with that, it's part of being a good player to do well in them.

I just, personally, think that he should be able to win in a tournament of GSL format before we should announce him as the best like it's a fact.

The thing is we might need a "best weekend tournament player" and "best GSL player" categories because it's really, really different metagame.

Also I don't know if having one week to train for a specific opponent amounts to "true skill". I would just say it's a different setting.

Well his Terran vs Protoss isn't what it used to be and he's frustrated at least from his twitter posts from the last tournament about TvP. MoOk is a Korean Protoss so... not that unexpected yet very sad TT

Wait what? Scarlett is a dude right?


There might be two players who have similar IDs because I know a Scarlett who is a dude.

After listening to the voice in the interview I think there is a possibility it's a dude. I mean it's possible...


It's not just the voice...

Wow, I got a lot of hate for my MKP comment.

Let me be clear: I don't think MKP is bad. I think he's one of the best players, he might even actually be the best. However, I think it's too early to be declaring him the best, just like I think Artosis was overhyping DRG when he called him the best over and over again.

MKP has excellent mechanics and decision making, but he tends to win games with gimmicky and tricky strategies that abuse the fact that terran is hard to scout and properly respond to. He can win straight up macro games, but when he loses it's pretty clear that he deserved the loss. There are better players in specific matchups, like Alive's TvT.

I think MKP 'might' be the best overall, but I think it's too early to declare him as such and announce it like it's a fact. If he wins a GSL soon, I'll agree that he is.

MKP is clearly playing the best in the world right now, just as DRG was playing the best not too long ago.

SC2 is young, the game changes so often that the top player changes quite often these days.

DRG was not overhyped, MKP is not being overhyped. Nestea was a bit overhyped due to fanboyism but overall MKP is the best player at this moment in SC2. It's not early to declare someone the best after he wins two major events and takes his team to the GSTL finals. You act like he won one event and that's it. He's been winning so much, everywhere. If he is not the clear best player in the world then you can only declare Flash to be the best because that is the only person who is more clear as the best player in the world.


How Nestea was overhyped when he won 3 GSLs? He was much more dominant than these 2nd generation top players. He may not be as good as he used to be but he was not overhyped at all in his peak.

Same people will probably start saying that Idra was the best Zerg at that time and not Nestea.
