So Stephano isnt a top15 player? I know there is lots of foreigner bias and he never competed seriously in GSL. But still, not amongst the top15? that just doesnt feel right


Dude PartinG didn't make the list... and you think Stephano makes top 15?

While I disagree with some of this list (chiefly the absence of PartinG) I consider the three top spots to be, in that exact order, undisputable. I understand people arguing for Life #1 while bringing forth his results and dominance but stuchiu has brilliantly underlined something that can't be overlooked : Mvp has been injured for more than half of his career.
Results are not the only thing that make a player, stories are essential too, and I can't think of anyone with a better story than Mvp. His fourth GSL win was, by a distance, my most emotional SC2 moment. I'd actually go as far as comparing it to Federer's Wimbledon win the same year : against strong odds, relying on sheer talent and brilliance alone. I cried after both.

Haven't paid attention to SC2 for quite a while, this article sure resparked my interest. Thanks stuchiu.


Then the question becomes what can Life achieve to be finally considered above MVP? If life is fortunate enough to not have a significant injure, will that prevent him from surpassing MVP forever?
Don't worry, be happy!

This is very surprising that Life is #2. It is clear that Life has better achievements and is a much better player than Mvp was. He even defeated Mvp in the greatest GSL final of all time, playing from behind in every game. This article is a direct insult to Life calling him a bad player. Whatever though, Life and other smart people like me know that Life is/was better than Mvp so we don't need some random article to tell us so.
They hate us 'cause they ain't us.

The only way life becomes #1 is if he wins 2 more GSLs/SSLs after a truck runs over his fingers and his puppy dies of ebola.

Life is the best player of all time but it takes much more to be the GREATEST.

Apart from the faulty exclusion of Parting, this was truly great series.
stuchiu has out done himself. Great work

I wonder why Stuchiu decided on top 15 as the cut off, especially if 19-16 is very close.

To clarify, a notoriously braggadocious player complaining about his (non-)placement on this ranking does not in any way invalidate it

MVP writeup made me tear up. Anyone who doesn't recognize the legend that he is, playing through the crippling pain and overcoming such adversity is dead on the inside. GOAT

i like how life's write up is basically "yea, humanity is fucked. that other beast that competed with him? he beat that one into submission. god? god is long since gone. the eremit from the mountains? he won't step down from that mountain anymore. all hail the superior Life-form!"

i think though that parting, maru and maybe innovation and zest will step up to the task of containing the monster. it also is still left to be seen if life can keep his form for the rest of the year, or if he just randomly collapses like many before him did, including himself.
