Didn't say better or worse than MMA, but certainly not the best in the world atm, unless you meant they said that a while ago idk.


Yeah he's not the best player in the world atm. He was, or at least was close, back when he won his GSL finals (not WC), but that's a long time ago and there are better players than him now.

That's not to say he isn't very very good.


Who is the better player Sir?

Iike StartaleBomber said,

Overally juding, There is no player better than IMMvp.

It's not my thinking but Bomber's thought, who is one of the best terran

Well I confess but in some area like vs Protoss some players like bomber or Puma is better than him but not overall like he said. '

(Overall means : Macro management/Micro management/Reaction Speed/Multitasking ability/multi-direction harrassment/New and fresh build/ etc)


Overall yes, Mvp may still be the most solid player. Best mechanics in sc2, but I fear some of his builds are getting old and outdated. If he can stay fresh with his strats he should be set. Don't think he's the best player in the world right now though (nestea may give him a run for his money though the last time they played, Mvp 3-1'd him)

People are quick to say mvp has no real results recently but if you take away mc's foreign results and just look at his korean ones, he's actually slumping harder than mvp is. Only reason we don't think mc is slumping is because he owns up the foreign scene.

I don't doubt DRG, I think he's a beast. But people are quick to overrate someone especially with artosis hyping the crap out of him. Same happened to mma, who again I think is a great player, but is overhyped for his level.

Only reason you don't think mvp is owning foreign scene is because he didn't have enough opportunity to get there like Dreamhack Invitational / Copenhagen etc.

But Look IMMVP is invited to one of the Major Foreign Scene.

and The more IMMVP gets invited, The more people acknowledge Why he is such a great player.

Oh no don't get me wrong, I'm fully aware that he has no foreign results because he never gets invited. In fact this is his first invite! Lets see if he makes as big an impact to the foreign scene as mc did. They are afterall both a part of the big 3 (means they needa send nestea next!)

Yeah. You are right. I hope MVP will get a good result. NERD CHILL :D

p.s. I don't think Mvp's bulids are outdated. Recently Bomber took out oGsMC with proper timing push but actually It was introduced at first By IMMvp in laddar and GSL
His mech vs Ganzi/Scfou is kina fresh build also. I think MVP is really trying hard to show that he is making many efforts creating fresh but very effective builds to his fans.

Mostly his bcs build is his own style which makes me nerd chll whenever I watch it....:D

The way it is designed is kind of unfair. You get automatic top 6 for winning your group, right. Yet the groups are completely imbalanced in terms of skill, so despite the fact that there are 3 players in group A who could beat every player in group B, only one of them will get the automatic top 6 (i.e. winners bracket/championship bracket) position.

There needs to be some sort of ELO or committee that seeds this. It is complete bullshit that you have 2-3 Code S level players in Group A + 2 solid foreigner pros, yet in B,C,D you only have 1 (and then a few solid foreigners + a bunch of average ones). It pretty much ruins the legitimacy of MLG results if someone outside of Group A wins. This could be made even worse if Ganzi/Alicia/other gosus get put in Group A.

The top 6 players in the group stage format, in my mind, (without considering the open bracket players) are MVP, DRG, MMA, HuK, Nani, IdrA - and 3/6 are in Group A. 2 of those automatically have no chance of being seeded into the winners bracket just because they got unlucky. That is not good tournament design.

TLDR: Put Nani or HuK into Group B or C
I play Random - HuK, DRG + Liquid fan

It is is MLG account. Whatever user name your create on their site is used for all its published information. Keeps linking data to a specific individual player on their ends easier I assume.

When has Artosis ever hyped DRG, apart from maybe a quick mention on the latest SotG? He hasn't cast any of his games, afaik. DRG's hype is grassroots, and started months ago when he was streaming on TL.

Guess you didn't watch the lg finals with scfou and DRG. The bias during that game was beyond ridiculous, though I don't wanna complain about something like that now. Artosis- "oh my god drg is just crushing through every attack sc sends at him he is so far ahead". Meanwhile sc is up 3 bases to 2. DRG did end up taking that series 3-2 through very close games. Again I'm not insulting him, I tyhink he's great. But people are very quick to overhype players after 1 showing.
