Funny how when 3/4 players in the semis are protoss people complain that T has no chance vP - yet the only terran manages to win.
That being said, MVP played really well Still don't know if I'd personally rate him higher than MKP

It is and always has been the same answer: MVP by far.
No other Terran ever was close to him. (yeah he lost to MMA and other Terrans were good as well in the past, but there have been 2players yet that somewhat dominated and those were Nestea and MVP, all others are extremly up and down)

MVP is obviously the King.

/Thread.

Oh, it's because he knows what champions know that regular folks don't: How to win!

Seriously though: MKP is the most skilled SC2 Terran pro though, but MVP is mentally stronger and has better in-game tactical decision making (on average, not always).

Nada still the best in everything he tries.

People maybe forget, but the Flash-Jaedong duo was in the historical shadow of Nada for a long time, standing up there unreachable above anybody else.

I totally agree. MKP is mechanically (micro, macro) the best SC2 player right now. But he gives too many games away. MVP knows how to win and has good enough mechanics (even now with his wrist injury) to be able to execute what is necessay. Until the players, that are mechanically much stronger than him, learn to make fewer mistakes, he will be the King of SC2.

mkp is not mechanically sound when you compare him to, let's say, MMA

If MVP had a chance to practice as half as much as these guys, this would never even be a discussion, IMO

That's 100% not true.

MKP has one of the best terran micro i have ever seen. But, MVP has better macro and has great micro too. So I'll have to say MVP.

MVP for sure, and he will still be the best Terran in SC2 for a long time after the BW pro switch.

MVP got into RO8 in MSL after beating the 2 best PvT'ers (Stork and Best), 2-0'ed Baby, and lost 1-3 to Flash. Nobody knew how good he would be in Broodwar had he stayed. He had great mechanics even by Broodwar standards back then and his understanding of SC2 from his experience will keep him in his throne for a much longer time.

MKP.
Though I am not 100% sure.
If there is a Terran King anyhow, he would be Korean without a doubt.

MVP, MKP, and Bomber all have incredible talent. But mkp and bomber crack under pressure. Both of them drop mules before the game is over and play with far too much emotion. MVP is a champion and like all champions he has the ability to detach from the game and always bring his best. 4 championships should give him the confidence to be the top player for years to come.

He totally outplayed squirtle. Anyone using the game to say anything about balance is sorely mistaken. The only thing OP is MVP.

I am still unsure as to who is currently best out of MVP and MKP after MVP's comeback from wrist problems. No doubt winning code S is huge, but you only have to defeat, what five or six opponents? There is a good chance that you won't even be tested against your weakest match-up.

I would like to see MKP and MVP fight it out. TvT is MKP's weakest match-up I feel, but that's mainly because his others are so strong! I actually have no persuasion either way as to who would win that TvT. I want to see it.

MVP's TvP looks very fragile, whereas I feel MKP has the best handle on that match-up in the world. MVP relies on cheese or unorthodox build orders to catch players off guard. MKP pressures like crazy in the mid game to take a late game lead and finish it off. That is apparently how TvP should be played, and he is the best.

We haven't seen MVP play a TvZ in a while owing to the nature of the GSL format. MKP's TvZ on the other hand is scary; he gives DRG plenty of trouble every time they meet.

I'm leaning towards giving MKP a slight edge as best Terran at the moment. But things can change in a matter of weeks. Hopefully we see MVP at some foreign events so he can get more exposure - and possibly prove that he IS the best.

Fantasy is the original Terran Prince.
