For the sake of four, MKP.

Or you can make the fourth spot for casters! Artosis maybe.

Mvp MarineKing MMA Polt

MC PartinG HerO Hongun (just kidding, I'll take Squirtle)

FruitDealer Nestea Stephano DongRaeGu

You could make an argument for either Genius or Rain instead of Squirtle but Squirtle seemed a safer choice to me. Funnily enough MaNa has won more money than anyone but MC/PartinG/HerO.

I'd put Parting in the protoss pantheon.
He was the only one, pre 111 nerf (aka immortal buff), who emerged and found new ways to play protoss, he's an important part of protoss evolution.

Terran:

MVP: He's sort of good
MMA: Formerly son of Boxer n such, gsl champ, legendary TvZ, etc.
MKP: Massive amount of fans....guess he introduced marine micro too - .- (I don't like MKP but he deserves it)
Polt: Beats out Jjakji as the better gsl champ.

Protoss:

MC: Obviously. Tons of paper and great for e-sports. Double gsl champ
PartinG: double world champ and created that stupid soul meme
Seed: Hey you can call him Jjakji all you want but you guys on Aiur are desprate for gsl champs besides MC lol
Creator: Isn't he responsible for like, a shitload of protoss innovation? Regardless he's bound to win something big at some point so his spot is reserved.

Zerg:
Nestea: The FDR / Abraham Lincoln of Zerg
Stephano: Greatest foreigner, innovative play, beloved by many
Fruitdealer: Our George Washington. Won against all odds.
Dongraegu: Gave us a legendary game with MMA and has too many accomplishments not to be up here.

edit: Seed or Creator could easily be replaced with Rain since he's the first OSL champ and demonstrated fantastic toss play.

I think the Terran heads will get the most agreement while Zerg has the most interesting debate. Besides MC I can't think of any Protoss who would not be out of place when compared to who made it for Terran and Zerg.

I have seen only a couple of people say Life for Zerg. I know he is a late-comer but I think being the only royal roader earns him a spot. Everything else for him makes the argument stronger but I think the royal roader thing on its own would be enough. I think Nestea has to be there too, he does have an award named after him. I see the argument for FruitDealer too. That leaves one Zerg spot, and there is still DRG, Stephano, Leenock and more. That is too hard. Maybe Stephano for being a foreigner but I would probably pick DRG; he carried MVP in the GSTL for a while and was phenomenal at ZvT.

For Protoss... MC is a must but then... I would be tempted to say Creator; he has been credited with inventing several builds and went against the idea that Protoss is about 1 or 2 base timing attacks. Maybe Hero too for his excellent use of warp prisms, and I think he was one of the first to make it work at a high level. Finally I'd say Seed. He had an incredible run in one GSL (the series against Symbol in particular) and he broke the long streak of no Protoss champion in the GSL.

I guess my choices are a little Korean-heavy.

Zerg is incredibly hard because once we left the Nestea/MVP era of dominance and DRG lost just enough skill to not be on that bleeding edge level of play, we got like 5 different guys, each with distinct playstyles and all roughly equal in skill.
It's like someone got DRG, the complete package, and split his perfection into several imperfect fractions. I can't choose an apple over an orange!

Terran - Mvp, MMA, MKP

Mvp is the best player ever and it's not even close, MMA was the second-best overall Terran, and MKP had a ton of deep runs even though he usually came up short when it counted the most.

Protoss - MC, Parting, Rain

MC is by far the most accomplished Protoss overall, Parting has been strong for a while and snagged a couple big trophies lately, and Rain already has two really big accomplishments under his belt, including being the winner of the only SC2 OSL so far.

Zerg - Nestea, DRG, Leenock

Nestea was the smartest Zerg by a wide margin for a long stretch of time, as evidenced by his 3 GSL trophies and a mirror matchup that was for a time literally unbeatable. DRG showed us what a pure mechanical Zerg could look like and it was scary as shit, and Leenock apparently is MC's successor in the "taking all the foreigner money" category.


Honorable mentions go to Polt and Stephano, but I feel that they're both a step below the players listed above.

Offended DRG is not on your list....Or is this because you are banned of ever speaking of DongRaeGu?

Terran:
Mvp
MKP
MMA
Polt

Protoss:
MC
Parting
Hero
Rain

Zerg
NesTea
DongRaeGu
Leenock
Stephano

The order they are in has relevance. NesTea is #1 zerg etc.

and im going to defend DRG (even though Fionn was like the only one not to include him) here because im a fan boy. 2x MLG champ, 2x runner up and 2x third place, DreamHack champ, IEM champ, GSL champ, 2nd place OSL (and in Code S for 8 straight seasons)

Fruidealer: GSL
Life: GSL, MLG
Leenock(although he did get 2nd) andStephano both dont haven a GSL title, which is the most prestigous tournament, and a necessity to be included as the best player of your race imo.

Plus lets be honest, Stephano plays in a lot of tournaments were there isnt a ton of competition where every Korean plays in a tournament with only Code S/A level koreans or when they go to oversea events, making it harder to win everything where Stephano can win 25k playing in a European only tournament (still hard, just not nearly as hard)

Also NesTea has only won GSL (well three of them and winning one GSL makes you a fucking god already, but my point is he has only shown the ability to win with preparation and not just by pure ownage like Leenock, Stephano, and DRG have proven they can do on any given weekend)
