For me it was never a question if Taeja was top 3...
Bigger question is who is number 1 and 2.
I hope Life. Anyways, I'm beginning to agree more and more with the list, only thing off for me is Rain's position and the lack of Parting in a top 15.
SC2 Archon needs "Terrible, terrible damage" as one of it's quotes.

Parting and sOs not being on when both of them owned Starcraft 2 for periods of time is just incorrect

Welp top 2 are pretty obvious :p.

Though as much as I want to raise Mvp as the greatest SC2 player of all time, he's been irrelevant for 3 years now....

And yet, odds are he'll still be the greatest SC2 players when the game dies.

I strongly disagree with TaeJa ahead of MC, and I guess a lot of debate will go on in this thread about that questionable choice. We're talking about a 3 times GSL finalist, two times champion, who has been relevant for 5 years. I don't think TaeJa's achievements, great though they are, can match that.


The criteria forced me to put him that high.


for all we know you decided to base your criteria around taeja's achievements and strong points. this "criteria" excuse is bullshit; the title clearly states something else.

honestly id like to hear how herO didnt make the cut. going through your criteria he had as many if not more reasons to be included in the list.

now im going to see if youre gonna troll and have someone other than Mvp/Life in the top 2 just to spite us

Look up herO's results and then claim he deserves to make the cut. Do even a fraction of the research Stuchiu did for this then come back and let's have a discussion. herO is almost certainly not even in Stuchiu's top 20 given that sOs, Parting, Bomber, Soulkey, etc didn't make it either. Who do you think herO has had a better career then than those guys, or anyone on this list for that matter?

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.



They were all candidates, but for multiple reasons they didn't make the cut.

Mvp was relevant for parts of wcs in 2013. i'd say 2 years or so. His feats are different though.

I think Life is pretty close right now, and a few more victories will make him the best, but the 2012 runs Mvp made.... They're just a demonstration of some weird skill only a few people that have played BW/SC2 have had.
