because earnings are the only relevant metric to rank a player

well if someone doesnt understand the game, it's easy to point to results or earnings as to determine which player is better


Yep, I think if you can look at only one type of data to classify historically the best players, without a doubt, the best way to do so would be to look at their earnings.

I very much agree with you - it's just that it's an incredibly horrible way to go about it compared to actually having a clue about the game and looking at how well the players played.

Edit: As Charoisaur pointed out, obviously judging by earnings only makes sense if you're comparing players who have attended the same tournaments xD

What's your aligulac peak rating?

i suppose dark will be the 2nd korean to be banned from teamliquid after true was asked what he thinks that tl writers gave him rank 11 at wcs montreal, the tournament he swept, and he responded "maybe they dont know starcraft"

Not useful. Aligulac ratings strongly inflate over time. Mvp's peak rating is lower than the peak rating of most (moderately good) players that play nowadays.

haha, shoutcraft... imagine from the pro koreans perspective, best of 1 game on another server vs. someone you (in some cases) know nothing about. the loss means so little to them and the win exponentially so much more to the foreigner. you can guarantee they were not playing anywhere near the level they would be if it was a meaningful offline match in a tournament. it was cool to see nerchio go on such a streak and give hope to foreigners that they have a chance, makes it interesting. talk as much trash and hope all you want, we will see if it actually meant anything soon enough! can't wait!

Why would it mean less for Koreans? I have more tournaments to play in than them, haha :D

Hahaha, it's pretty obvious that Nerchio is being Nerchio and he's trolling hard. But fun fact- u all seem to underestimate him as a player. And all this in front of the facts, that lots of Korean players are copying Nerchio's builds in ZvT or are inspired by his style. Foreign Zergs figured out meta in this matchup long time before koreans. So i wouldn't be so "nah" if i were Dark. Also, i don't understand you people. All i hear since the beginning of sc2, is how u all are soory that no foreigners can stand against koreans. And when we are so close to achieve it, u are bashing people that have a chance to prove that we're not less capable than korean players. Chill, cheer and have fun from watching our beloved game. I hype for Nerchio as i think it would be a great fucking story if he manages to go deep into that stacked korean tournament. I hope he'll do it! Go go Nerchio- foreigner hope.
