Reach? I only followed SC1 / BW loosely before Flash / JD / Bisu / ... Since the only name I know from the mentioned above is Yellow, I'd say it is Yellow :D | ||

MC's overseas sucess hinged on whether other good koreans were in. If they were you pretty much knew MC wasn't taking it. I was quite a antifan of MC and protoss in general so I might have missed some of his finals but I am pretty sure he was a finalist in mid 2012 against Seed. For oversea, you exagerate a bit, I am pretty sure if you go on the tl thread at the time you will see him consider as a favorite for pretty much every tournaments except at the end of 2012 when no protoss and terran other than parting with his soul train could do much. | ||

Xain0n's Corollary: The probability turns to 1 immediately in the presence of Xain0n. It's pretty high without me as well, considering I was not the one speaking of Serral this time; you'd better add "in the absence of Xain0n, the discussion will mostly consist in escalating korean elitits posts each increasingly diminishing Serral's achievement". Maru vs Stats and TaeJa vs NesTea are pretty onesided. | ||

But in all seriousness, while Maru's four GSLs are incredible Stats has been to a premier tournament final every year for the past four years. He has two starleagues and 11 finals appearances. That had to count for something. | ||

If the way the polls are written follow bracket, then the next matches are Inno v soO Maru v Mvp I wouldn't be so sure about this. | ||

Even if he'd retired before 2018 he'd still beat Stats. | ||

He already had legendary OSL + SSL wins, more GSL ro4s than almost anyone else, was consistently between #1 and #3 terran for over six years (and more consistant than INno or TY during those times). Plus he's arguably the best proleague player of all time. Even if he'd retired before 2018 he'd still beat Stats. If Maru retired before 2018 Stats would have been so much ahead it would be laughable to even compare them. | ||
