I mean, I will take having 2 Canadians in the top 5, that's pretty neat, but it doesn't feel totally deserved to me. | ||

Anyway thanks that was a good read. I remember when stephano lost to Titan in an online cup, it was his first loss against protoss in like 30 games, that was the peak period of stephano i think | ||

For my money, Stephano was mentally the strongest foreigner there has ever been and top five strongest mental players that SC2 has seen (the others are Mvp, Life, Taeja and sOs). ????????? this guy was saying he is going to retire like every two weeks. well anyway great write-up was fun reading | ||

Although wanting to play late game TvP back then and being successful at it requires some mad mental skills I can tell you. | ||

So it's just not about the title finishes, it's about the games and the competition! Also I'd like to make a counterpoint about Scarlett's relative shyness compared to HuK, which may be the case in real life, but she has just as much if not more bravado and showmanship in game! Oops meant to press edit instead of quote sorry got too excited | ||

Stephano deserves the 1st, Naniwa the 2nd, they are the biggest. Also I would like to see Jinro a little bit more ranked, at his time he was almost unstoppable, and Idra of course, for his awesome game mechanics, he had a great time, but Huk owned him.  Good Job. | ||
