This is a hard one. MMA definitely had the higher peak and has the GSL titles. But MKP's longevity can't be ignored. If you asked me in Oct 2012, I would probably still picked MMA. But with his slump being so prolonged. I think I would have to take MKP.

MarineKing 4. Polt 5. TaeJa/Bomber for best terrans of WoL. honorable mention to puma and jjakji PUMA?!.. Christ... he managed to fail to qualify into Code A for the ENTIRETY of WoL's life cycle. He doesn't deserve any mentions, honorable or not  haha, i dno, i though farming NASL and other tourneys was pretty good :o he's one of the highest earning terrans, at least
Yep, during the 1-1-1 era, which was the only thing he was good at. Once people learned to defend it, MAGIC HAPPENS, he disappeared.

i think you're underrating his overall skill - 1-1-1 is only one matchup, after all, and he played plenty of each to win. a lot of his protoss wins weren't 1-1-1s either.

But regarding raw skill I would put him in top 8 and regarding most valueable teamleague terran 1st / 2nd tied with MKP

Teamleague terran is probably tied between Mkp, Gumiho and Taeja.
People forgetting that Puma became famous for his retardly sick TvT.

Ok sorry, I think it has been asked several times but i don't feel like reading 99 pages :p can someone tell me if some games are recommanded for the taeja vs soulkey series ? Thank you !

I think Supernova should be t3 for sure. He was one of the most consistent players out there for a long time in the gsl even though he hasn't won anything significant. He was just 1 season shy of getting the Nestea award

the difference between t3/4 there seems to be a major premier title, which suno lacks? gumiho's is from GSTL, haha. i'd throw alive down a rung, though

Lmfao at the OP. hilarious.
Despite winning a gsl title, a memorable one at that, I can't rate jjakji above consistent performers like Ryung and Supernova.

Yes, but having no big tournament wins really hurt him.

eh, i dno
http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/TOP/Results
top's results, while solid with a #2 and #4, i probably would say are worse than ryung/supernova/byun's since he fell off pretty heavily and was irrelevant in 2012?

well thats natural, hes the invisible Terran afterall, people like to forget he was regularly trashing the Taeja`s and MKP`s and his wins against MC or Squirtle, well afterall the crowd promptly left after they ve seen the IPL4 finals ;-)
Pretty much the Terran version of Sniper. :S

To be fair, Ps won OSL, BWC Korea, Asia, Global, WCG 2012. So although in terms of GSL, P has had it the worse. These other tournaments make it a bit better (although still last).
