AND the fact Mvp went up 3-0, then Squirtle tied 3-3, then both players won game 7 like three times before Mvp put the nail in the coffin. yup, gotta be #1. MMA vs DRG gonna be very high up too though i bet. | ||

I didn't like Mvp vs Squirtle that much. Obviously the archon toilet was epic and game seven nailbiting, but otherwise it was very meh. Your writing is great Fionn! | ||

DRG vs MMA was amazing too, but mainly because of the storyline and of the last game. | ||

7. MMA/Mvp - fairly anticlimactic tbh. 6. Life/Mvp - also pretty meh. 5. Soulkey/Innovation - good storylines, underdogs, etc, quality of play not brilliant. 4. Jjakji/Leenock - Awesome play but very little for storylines. 3. Mvp/Squirtle - pretty awesome all around in story/gameplay 2. DRG/MMA - awesome storyline, awesome gameplay, tense as fuck. 1. Marineking/Nestea - without a doubt the best storyline in sc2 ever, sensational final game. But Marineking/Nestea won't come first because it's the most under-rated finals ever.  This is also the power rank that put Roro/Symbol and Sniper/Hyun above Mvp/TOP, so... | ||

Sniper vs HyuN was actually fairly good and back and forth | ||

His performance varied so much (along the lower-mid level) but only the few finals he got into made him recognized but not nearly as much in HotS and the last days of WoL. For me even Sniper stood out more with his single good (yep, late-WoL zerg) performance, made a girl cry and vanished into the nothingness.  Can't imagine how you came to that conclusion. DRG was fairly hyped around mid-2011 and finally established himself as a top-tier player from the 2011 Blizzard Cup to like Summer 2012 where his Busan dream died twice, and then Rain stole his OSL. Maybe its just because he only won once, but he earned his respect at the top and held the title of best zerg and player for a couple of months. Mainly by owning foreign events and being arguably the best GSTL player ever. I mean if nothing else, DRG's gsl win could be considered something that was a long time coming. A hyped player that finally lived up to the buzz. | ||

So amazing when he got that first allkill and then ogsMC called him out on Crevasse and DRG just busted the best and most aggressive player of his time. Biggest victim of BL/Infestor... From being the only Zerg able to compete with Code S Terrans to a medicro Code S player. | ||
