So in 2013-15 as the amount of koreans playing back then was far higher and proleague was a thing. that doesn't mean that the top players back then can never be topped though. | ||

People say WoL was the most competitive, but the skill level of HoTS was clearly higher | ||

MVP at top form would, I believe, still beat any player playing today. | ||

At a certain point yes (if you're getting closer to 30 maybe). But for the most part your skill increases with hours played. Look at Inno, TY, Stats, ByuN etc. These guys took 5-10 years of professional play before they reached the top | ||
