And yet again they manage to talk for hours about trivial stuff nobody cares about. Only thing that annoys me when watching SC2.

And while I'm writting this they finally get started. Hooray \o/

Because even if it's not a straight up 'best in the world' ranking, you have to beat a shit-ton of people, at a range of events from things like this to MLG to IEMs, who are all also hungry for those points. Shitting on the WCS ranking because it's not definitive is like saying the guy who just fought off a piranha swarm barehanded isn't badass because it wasn't a fight with a great white in a viewing tank.

Well they are the best players in the world championship by gathering the most points. This is a quantifiable result. Some Kespa players might be better but it's their choice not participating.

I do think they are freaking good in the game, but if someone asked me "Stardust vs Hyun, who do you think wins?" I would never answer "Hyun, he has more WCS points afterall"

Well just because they aren't the best players in the world doesn't mean they don't deserve the hype for being the players who have worked hardest to play in many tournaments over the year and place well in many of them.

I don't see how this is relevant. They're not saying they're the most activate players. Or the beat a lot of players. Or what they did wasn't easy or required a lot of work. Tod implied that hyun, mc and stardust are the best players in the world. Hasuobs straight up said they're the best players in the world. And this isn't true.

Yeah if they are saying they are the best players in the world purely from WCS rankings that's kind of odd. However, a lot of people are saying that it's wrong that these players are in the top rankings and that they shouldn't be there etc.

Spores vs muta damage is so ridiculous really. I know it stopped the ugly mass mutalisk meta but it just feels out of place.

Then I pose who is the best player? soO, Zest, Flash? That's a question that nobody will agree on. The WCS Rankings show who's been performing at great at the top level, and it serves as a defacto way to see who's "the best".

Well the problem is that zergs anti air is so horrible so without sick spores you HAVE to go mutas and then it becomes only muta vs muta. You can't for example get quick hydras to deal with mutas since they are too slow and you need a big clump of them to be safe vs mutas.
