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)

White-Ra needs to stabilize if MKP commits too much it might be possible for White-Ra to come back.

Well if Marineking thinks this is a tournament worthy build who are we to say It's not, this should inject some interesting discussion into the TvP mech thread.

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.


I think that's a pretty fragile and narrow measurement of skill. Someone who is around top-tier but not the best could easily win the GSL by being lucky with matchups.
If you're not getting better faster than everybody else, you're getting worse.

Till then we'll see how he does.

So because DRG won GSL, but has been owned by MKP, dropped out of Code S since winning the last one, and didnt win a game in the GSTL semi's, he is still the best player in the world? Sorry but no. GSL is the premier tournament, but you have to factor in more than just that.


You are absolutely right, there are people who blindly praise GSL as the mekka of SC2 and everything else just gets ignored. Sure, GSL is the hardest tournament to win, but one can't still deny the existence of other high-level tournaments with code S players fighting for a high amount of money. IF MKP keeps winning these tournaments by owning just anybody who passes his way (including code S champions), you can argue that he is the best player at the moment. MVP/nestea fanboys will ALWAYS throw in this "uhh win a GSL" argument", even in years. But answer one question please: Was Savior considered as the world's best player before he won an OSL ? (Answer is yes)

If we ignored GSL, then Huk was top 8 sc2 player in the world, and Stephano's rank would be lower than Sheth. NO! GSL is the most prestigious tournament for some reason. People can play at the best condition, no extended series BS or something like that, in code S there is no group of Luk. Shit's like Metalopolis's close spawns does not exist in GSL.


People didn't say MKP is no1 because he won 2 tournaments but because he is winning versus everybody. Biiiiiig difference. Huk is top 8 at MLG but he is not dominant by far.
Mess with the best, die like the rest.

You can literally see the moment where Bumblebee's career dies.

She said that she had been playing lots of games in preparation for this tournament, 20 games a day. THAT"S WHAT BUMBLEBEE SCHEDULE WHEN HE HAS DAYS OFF!!


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...


The hell is wrong with you people? Someone upsets a Korean pro, and rather than praise them, you question their gender? And you wonder why there are so few girls in SC2 and the rest of the world thinks we are mysgynistic.


Chill out!!! What does this have to do with lack of girls in SC2?

I really hope people don't call "mech works vs Protoss" after this game. MKP is worlds above White-rA. I really don't mean to be rude towards him, I also like our beloved Protoss, but thats just the truth. MKP could play next to everything against White-Ra and would still win.

I actually think that Scarlett's performance is remarkable.

She started playing the game very late, she does not belong to a team and is not playing full time, but she manages to win a Playhem tournament, and take a korean from Prime down in the first round. I really hope she keeps this amazing momentum, and we could see a lot more of her in the future!
