I like to know what happens if a Foreigner suddenly appeared in 2014 and won ~10 titles until now (incl WCS S1, S2, S3, Blizzcon 2014, IEM 100k 2014 or 2015 etc) but no single title in korea.

I just want to say that I got the ten players in the top ten correctly, and my only mistakes were swapping Zest and Nestea, and MMA and MC. If Life is first I will have swapped him and MVP as well, if not those are the only things I got wrong. That's probably the closest to a correct list, right?

Well the only thing Taeja has out of that list is IEM...the fact that, aside from no korean wins, he doesn't have any wcs/blizzon wins just cements his dubious case. It would be interesting to see someone pull it off, but it's highly doubtful that would happen.

Man these ranking tear at my soul because there are some players you just don't feel right excluding from the list... Parting, Soulkey, sOs spring to mind immediately but there's definitely others. But the only one I can really see being removed would be Leenock.

I agree with these three and their ranking. Taeja didn't just won his tournaments, he crushed people so hard you could accurately predict him not dropping a single map. Just look at DH Bucharest 2013. Dreamhack open summer 2014. He not only won a lot but he often won VERY dominating. Tournaments with Taeja became less fun to watch for me because you knew everyone on his side of the bracket was doomed. He deserves the #3 spot. People give korean leagues too much credit.

That's ridiculous, why make a list of players who are okay but no where near the greatest? I don't understand why people do not find players "interesting" just because they are WAY better than others, the race is irrelevant. I found your post pretty racist actually.

As for the list, I don't think Taeja should be on the top 10, maybe top 15. Just my opinion though!

I've watched everybody on the top ten list stomp their way through tournaments, and I'll say this; only Mvp and Life looked as invincible as Taeja during their runs. This was a guy who literally pre-emptive GGed two games in a row in a tournament because he knew he could win the next 3 in a row. He may not have won a GSL, but holy shit he made GSL ro4 players look like trash sometimes.

i can't wait to read the wall of text about Mvp, which will likely be the greatest praise ever

thast like the last straw on taeja. how many more biased articles will TL write that has taeja highly overrated? wouldd love to hear again that its just the "authors opinion". this article just lost so much credibility.

This entire article was devised and written by Stuchiu on his own. If you think some mysterious TL overlord influenced his decision to place Taeja at number 3 you're a nut case. Yeah I would have had him at 4 but Stuchiu has been great at explaining his criteria and sticking to it. This list has more credibility than any other power rank we've ever had


ive read his criteria. (for anyone who hasnt and wants to, here it is: ( http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/482944-the-process-of-creating-the-top-15-greatest-list )

according to him, guys like herO, Hero, Bomber, and Parting should all be included in the list. id like to hear the explanation for that.


biased for putting taeja top 3 on TL, but Hero not on the list?
I think you're just chatting shit m8

i don't know, i said it already, but i think peak taeja and life might be scarier. mvp definitely is, considering that he while on a heavy downfall almost beat innovation while he was at his peak.

I'd only be willing to add 16-19. Those 4 players I felt did deserve to be talked about.
