not at the moment, but it's undeniable in 2 years of sc2

noone can argue that they are the best from their race, looking at the history of the game. But atm i think MC is the "legendary player" who is in the best form.

I still view MC as the most influential player in Starcraft history. Maybe he's not the outright best, but he really defined how everyone played Protoss, and still continues to do so

he is also the top earning player, and is the only top player who has really made an impact with his personality. MVP and Nestea remeains very anonymous.

While we're talking about influential protosses brown does not get enough credit, he created modern PvZ with things like aiming for fast 3rd bases, the strength of archon toilets against brood lord infestor and late game carrier approaches came heavily from his match against losira on daybreak.

I guess,that was pretty much one series that imo Losira played out badly

That said, you don't have to be a brilliant top-tier player to be influential. I'd argue that TLO and Destiny to take two, are players who've really pushed the game on to the current level that we're seeing


That wasn't even something brown invented, pretty sure it was kiwikaki vs stephano that ushered in the new age PvZ we all loathe so much. Weird how a game that awesome caused something we all almost universally dislike :p

Officially yes, unofficially he's struggling with it and is probably going to keep struggling with it for the rest of his career. It was certainly holding him back last Homestory Cup.

Kiwi popularized motherships in PvZ but imo the lead up to the mothership late game was done by brown.

He hasn't had surgury as far as I know. But he is getting treatment, but still sometimes has problems when he practices too much.

Kiwi pretty much popularised the archon toilet, but Brown's approach to PvZ, i.e an early third base and attempting to force long macro games was the innovative part of his PvZ, not how he actually used his mommaship

MVP preparing for HoTS and Warhound, Artosis celebrating because his foresight finally paid off.

MVP showing that mech is still occasionally viable in this game, and only needs a few tweaks rather than giving Terran an all-round ridiculous unit!
