best players right now

[Aaryn_GenD]

who do you people think are the best players right now for each race, right before HotS?

for me it would be:
Terran
Bogus,/Innovation Taeja, Mvp, Flash, Last
Zerg
Life, Leenock, Roro, Soulkey, soO, Effort
Protoss
Rain, Parting, Creator, sOs, herO[jOin], MC

I only have zergs on my list. T.T

srsly though:
Terran
Innovation, Taeja, maybe Flash... Mvp is done for tbh. MKP ?
Protoss
Rain, Parting, then after that Creator, Squirtle and SoS
Zerg
Life, Leenock, DRG, Sniper, Soulkey, Roro. All zergs are OP anyways lol.

I think Stephano doesn't deserve a spot on your list. He's horribly overrated.

Terran: Innovation, Taeja, Bogus - Not yet: Flash, Fantasy - Honorable Mention: Gumiho
Protoss: Squirtle, Rain, Parting, Creator, MC - Honorable Mention: Flying
Zerg: Life, Leenock, Soulkey, Roro - Honorable Mention: Sniper, DRG, LosirA

Hhaha that is true!
Thats what I get from not being able to check up my data while im writing.
I've watched alot of BW so Bogus sticks with me.. Deep Down I knew that!

Yes, Mvp is done but that is only due to his injury. it was more of an honorable mention on my part, i should have done it like staffeh

Protoss
Rain, Parting, then after that Creator, Squirtle and SoS

Why is stephano overrated? he can take out good people and is the best foreign player tbh, naniwa fell off
btw: SoS is the sHy i mentioned, i dislike players using multiple IDs

o I c... I was already wondering who the hell that sHy person was. I think stephano is a good player for foreigners, but he just isn't on par with the actual top korean players, while many people make it seem so.

EDIT: Also agree on mvp. He has to be my favourite player of all time, and imo the most succesful and impressive player of WoL.

If it is a tournament in which people can prepare for each match, i think u are right.
At tours like MLG i think he is on par

I personally still don't think he is quite on par in tournements like mlg... not as in having a serious shot at winning it when the super top koreans participate.

[Aaryn_GenD]

that is an unfair thing to say. i mean stephano is only one person, there are a dozen of koreans participating, i think he proved many times that he can beat the top koreans^^
i would say he is a middle class code s-player in terms of skill.

but then why is he in your list of top zerg players ?

I personally see him as a mid to high code a player at best.

[st4ffeh]

I would love to say that Stephano is one of the best Z's out there.
Buuuuuuuuuuut he isnt, unfortionately. He can take down any given Korean in a competition like MLG (where your opponent is decided and given to you in short notice). He excels in those environments in my opinion. He is very well-rounded, but when it comes to preparing for a competition/match weeks in advance Koreans do have - the best - practise facilities with training/feedback etc etc etc.

Oh BTW I forgot to mention Curious in my Z top line. I've always liked his style and im happy for him getting this far in the last WoL tournament (GSL).

MVP has fallen off, which is sad.. I've always liked him aswell, although NOT when he cheesed Naniwa from reaching ro4 in GSL. Must be because of his wrist/neck injury? Sad..

Edit: Must be because of his wrist/neck injury? Sad.. - reason for falling off. So you are not misstaken.

Mvp has to be my favourite player of all time. I like winners like him and Flash :-)

[st4ffeh]

Yeah MVP is a true champion, nothing can disprove that. Flash will come into a new prime soon enough in HotS.
I'd love to see players like Stork and Jangbi start to dominate, true favorites of mine in BW.

Edit: I edit alot cause Im so bad at quoting in forums! :]

[Aaryn_GenD]

jangbi started late pracitsing sc2 cause he was busy with sc1 last OSL.
i wonder what happened to samsungs khans reality that guy used to be the best kespa player
