LeBron James could beat Michael Jordan at his peak, because the game and players developed so much since then. But Michael Jordan is still the GOAT, period. Regardless this part has to be trolling a little bit at least  . And how is this article an insult to Life and where does it call him a bad player?Oh and I usually don't agree with Thorin, but this came at the perfect time haha. This article directly implies that Life is a bad player because the writer made him #2, not #1. | ||

HE WAS ROBBED seriously tho, the exclusion seems to be a indicator than the criteria you used had some flaws, mainly not recognizing consistency enough and a somewhat arbritary ranking based on what players they beat. like i said i think this is the only weak spot of your otherwise great series | ||

Just saying your opinion is laughable. Great writing and research nonetheless. | ||

There is just so much rose tinted goggles effect looking back at Mvp's career, sure it was impressive, hell, top 2, but just so much stuff gets credited to him it's getting beyond ridicolous. | ||

I dont like Rain's play and I think it is overrated. HerO, herO or Jaedong (maybe Parting) would fit better in the top 15, even if not in the top 10, than Rain, imo. The article is great, specially MVP's part. | ||

I didn't actually know Mvp was that good. I knew he was good, but Jesus Christ. Incredible Miracle indeed. | ||

But since my 2nd favorite player is Mvp, I will allow it. | ||

I think your top 10 is spot on. Maybe Nestea could be higher, maybe not. | ||

After that is Mvp’s 1st in GSL Season 2 Code S 2012. There he beat a Top 5 P, Top 10 T, Top 3 Z, Top 5 P, Top 2 P, and the best protoss. In comparison to that I equated this to Life’s Blizzcon and IEM NY runs. At Blizzcon he beat a Top 1 P (though jet lagged), Top 10 P, Top 2 T and a Top 5 T. The format again was better for Mvp and so was the player list. Yes there was prestige for Life, but the era in which Mvp was playing was worse for terran against protoss than it was for zerg during Blizzcon. In that era which according to you was so bad for Terran, there were 3 T in the top 8 of GSL. How many Zergs were at the top 8 of Life's Blizzcon? That's right, only 1. In fact, Zerg was not just the least represented race at that Blizzcon, it had been the least successful race in all WCS events in HotS up until that point. | ||

Hmm, I don't really see how an uncontrollable spell can be one of the greatest moments of SC2? Insane writeup nonetheless! good job Stuchiu! | ||
