He's surely a top four Terran in Wings. He won a GSL, consistently good through the past two years, is still a Top 3~5 Terran, and performs well at almost every single tournament he goes to. He just placed 3rd in the most stacked weekend tournament we might have ever had.
couldnt you just do one of the surveys like you do for the GSL ro8 stats? do a poll and give like 10 choices for each race or maybe have a "other" blank for write ins
Terran: MVP, MMA, the rest are unclear -- in terms of success, Polt and MKP (would say sC too but he kept getting injured and taking breaks ;, but in heart, Boxer Ryung Ganzi. I guess you have to take into account that it's harder to play in more events and still do well, so
MVP MMA Polt and MKP it is.
Protoss: MC, Naniwa, Hero, Genius
Zerg: Nestea, DRG, Stephano, Leenock
Choices are considered based on duration of competition, extent of their domination (tournament results, tournament winnings, amount of tournaments)
Terran: MVP, MMA, Taeja (tried to discard the patchterran) Protoss: MC, Seed, Rain (was hard to pick) Zerg: Nestea, DRG, Leenock (discarded the patchzerg)

MC too. Basically everyone who has won more then 1 GSL.
Stephano only gets the nod for being a fantastic foreign Zerg before those became common place.
What about Idra in the good old days? I enjoyed the games he had last year in MLG when he fought Koreans. It was the most entertaining stuff... And really awefully thrilling.

Really? Not MC? 2 GSLs, Dreamhack, HSC, IEM, tons of other top 5 finishes. He is head and shoulders above the rest of Protoss in terms of success throughout WoL. Really only HerO comes close, but has no GSLs. MC has also been the biggest Korean personality in the foreigner scene. I think he definitely deserves to be in the realm of MVP and Nestea.
Terran: Mvp, MMA, Polt, MarineKing Zerg: Nestea, DRG, and then 2 of FruitDealer/ Leenock/ Stephano Protoss: MC, Parting, and then I'm not sure about the other two... possibly Squirtle and then one more.
