Considering MKP is the best player in the world right now it would be impossible for DRG to be above him. Also MC and parting are worse than MKP.

Name a Zerg or Protoss player with better Micro than MKP or better macro than MVP or Bomber.

That's hilarious, because DRG beat him in the finals of the last MLG, and Terran is currently the favored race in ZvT among top Koreans (thus the balance changes in the latest patch).

Let's go Flash! I think he'll be able to transition into SCII with the new expansion easily since not many players would know intrinsically how the game is played until after the next few expansions are out.

MVP with messed up wrists beats Parting, best known PvT in the world, but TvP is unwinnable? seems legit.

There are problems with both sides of the match up.


Not being able to deal with 111's is embarrassing. Even demuslim said it himself.

What a silly thing to say, both you and demuslim.

Marineking beat him 5-2 and 4-2 before that.

MKP is still the best player in the world right now. Don't remember who said it, but a very good top tier korean pro said that when MKP is at home playing on ladder hes almost unbeatable and he wasn't winning tournaments because of his stage fright, but now that he has gotten over it and MVP's wrist exploded hes the best player in the world right now.

Seems to me that Protoss is imbal vs Terran after 10+ minutes. Zerg is imbal vs Protoss. But Terran isnt imbal vs zerg. Im inclined to agree with Flash, because of who he is. But I would really like to see him play zerg.

Not really an MKP fan, Polt would probably be my favorite terran player. It has nothing to do with being a fan or not its based on evidence and actually watching him play. If you don't think MKP is the best player in the world right now who do you think is?

Wait, a pro player thinks the race he plays is underpowered?!?

ALERT THE INTERNETZ!

Still nice to see his thoughts. I think the "elephant in the room" is about to get shot, dragged out, and made to look like a fool.

There are more Terran players than any other race therefore there's a higher chance of them winning the GSL.

Also, this last GSL had 3 protoss and 1 Terran in the top 4.


Why do you think more pro-gamers have decided to play Terran? Because of the higher skill ceiling.

Also, when DRG played Genius in the finals (just last season), the other two semi-finalists were Terran. And this season still was half Terrans (not to mention the fact that nearly every season ever was half or more Terran). What's your point?

Also, when every protoss pro in the world was complaining about 1/1/1, the consensus on this forum was that toss was playing bad and had to figure out how to deal with it. now when Terrans complain about P, people declare it to be the absolute truth. Funny how Terran-dominated this forum is.


It's not. The unbiased Protoss players all agree that their race is currently overpowered.


Oh cool look an unfalsifiable claim. Actually, you should probably look at the statistics and winrates before making such a claim about Protoss being OP. The facts show they're not.

Because he totally dominated this season of GSL right? One pro saying MKP is great in practice doesn't make it fact. Also, checking DRG and MKPs head to heads in TLPD. Last season Code S, last AoL, DRG has pretty much been kicking his ass in every Korean tournament for months.

But I'm sure all those MLG and GSL Championship trophies of MKPs prove he's the better player. Oh wait.

MVP with messed up wrists is better than any of the of the top three protosses put together.

Not surprised he won. Anything else would have been a travesty.

I think its kinda funny how Protoss is considered "Overpowered" in general when in reality they are just OP in one situation: lategame PvT. You could argue that they are slightly UP in every other situation in the game (PvZ, early PvT).

its funny how the PvZ situation (where zergs have been dominating with stephano style for quite a long time) has been so overshadowed by terran complaints about lategame TvP. i guess it shows how terran dominated this community is.

Dear MVP fanboy: you dont think that the fact that he plays terran might be a deciding factor, since terran is known to have a higher skill cap?

i understand it would be a travesty for you to see your favourite player lose. lots of people feel that way for other players aswell. MVP was knocked down to code A once when he was in his prime, before his wrist problems. he is no god.
