I'm suprised so many people are still going with MVP. I thought the MKP fanboys would be out in force after MLG.

Everyone can see that three GSL titles > a few MLG wins.

We need to wait how MVP will perform in GSL S2 (i wonder if he's back in shape). But MKP definitely improved and maybe those 2 titles will mark his breakthrough - in german i would say: der Knoten ist geplatzt.

mvp is the terran king for the rest of WoL as far as i'm concerned.

mkp is the usurper.

In my opinion it is still MVP. Jjakji, MMA and Marineking are coming closer but none of them has shown the consistency yet to be truly crowned as the Terran King. I think Polt is out of the question and needs to show some results in Korea first to be considered as a contender.

I think that right now there surely is no Terran King. Hard to say MVP because I sincerely doubt he'll be the highest placed terran in the upcoming GSL, probably not even top 3. Sure MKP is rocking MLG right now but if you want to be top anything you have to dominate korea. Which leaves MMA who I would say is closest candidate but I've not seen him dominate the TvT match up like MVP used to (even though he seems to have MVP's number).

How can you forget polt ?? , the cutest terran alive.
Cant you edit your post and add him again (before he notices this awfull omission)


I dont know, its difficult to pinpoint a terran king, contrary to toss and zerg where only a few people would compete for the title
So manny good terrans

1-Polt (no probably not, but i like him)
2-Marineking.
3-MVP (hearsaying, never realy seen manny games from him, nor been impressed by the ones i saw but apearently hes kinda good)
4-Bomber.


I guess you don't really follow the pro scene much. Polt is OptimusPrime.WE in the poll, as the poll was created shortly after Polt won the GSL super tournament and took on the title of Optimus. The reason MVP is winning is because he was so much better than everyone except Nestea for several months, January - November 2011. After GSL November where he lost to MMA, he made it to the ro4 in code S the next season, and after that sorta just fell off.

Bomber is wildly inconsistent. He won MLG Raleigh, he's got some all kills in GSTL, and he won code A over MVP during MVP's prime, but he's also lost in terrible fashion to relatively unknown players. I would rate Jjakji over Bomber.

Where is MMA in your list dude? He's better than Bomber and maybe even MVP now.

People are so quick to judge (on everything - which is sad) and make big conclusion afterwards. I'm not saying that MKP is not the best terran in the world. Hell he probably is at the moment,but MLG wins aren't really comparable to GSL titles.

I think something is holding Mvp back, as well as his wrists, maybe he's just not as motivated to practice to win anymore since he already has $250k+ and playing hurts him. But if he were to make a come back with some original play, rather than stubbornly sticking to what he's doing at the moment (macro style, not mixing it up enough, etc) he is definitely the king of terran. At the moment I really think it's up for grabs, MKP really made a strong showing at MLG, but not really enough to be called the 'king' of terran.

Also likewise I don't like how Artosis and Tasteless keep jumping the ship all the time, I mean seriously... NesTea, then Mvp, then MMA, then DRG... now they're calling MKP the best player in the world because he beat DRG?

There is such a thing as style counters, at least from I've witnessed from the past year and a half of Sc2, MMA beats Mvp but loses to Polt, and Polt loses to Mvp, Mvp also beats MKP but loses to DRG and MKP beats DRG, it seems to be an endless cycle of counters to specific styles of play that they have figured out. At the moment I don't think anyone is the king of terran or the best player in the world, but from results the best players from each race are Mvp/MC/NesTea, and that's really all you can fairly judge it on, as the metagame seems to shift so rapidly.

There is no king, people just have very short memory and will just go by latest results.

a year ago MVP
a couple months ago MMA
2 weeks ago Polt
this week MKP

These guys just haven't been consistent enough to be considered king, not even MVP. I'd rank them like this tho
1a MVP
1b MMA
2-3 MKP/Polt

and the rest.
