EPTA little surprised Snute is 3rd over Huk, since he hasn't actually won anything, but it is what it is.

Wasnt it naniwa's words ? It's under the stephano paragraph 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 Naniwa said it first, but failed. Stephano on the cast said he could actually do it, unlike Naniwa. | ||

Snute has had a larger consistent peak with more results against more opponents over a longer period of time. Yes HuK had some big wins, but the breadth and depth of Snute’s career made too much of a difference, especially when you add in that he played in a harder era had his style broken down twice (at the end of WoL and the Swarmhost nerf) and was still able to keep at a level where he could (and did) upset GSL/SSL Champions. I'd say having to beat MarineKing's 1/1/1 was as difficult at the time as having to beat herO's blink builds. That combined with more results is enough for me to have HuK as my #3. | ||

I'll give you that, but "just above Naniwa" doesn't sound like a different tier to me, so get rekt m8  Needless to say I ofc disagree with the placement, but can see the arguement for Stephano | ||

For me personally, I rate Huk>Snute and Naniwa>Stephano, but that's probably just bias because i like both of them really much. | ||

lmao they're not remotely comparable in that fashion, why do people still spread this "the game was easier back then" garbage? HuK should be ahead of Snute because that MLG win + his GSL results go ahead of anything Snute did IMO. | ||
