I would like people to discuss who they think are the 3 best Marth players right now are. I think there is little question on who is in the top 3 or who is 3rd, but 1 and 2 are kind of interesting. Prior to Apex, even with PP's better tournament placings in general, I would have said M2K was the better Marth player because of his completely dominant edgeguarding skills. After Apex, PP just barely convinced me that he was slightly better. M2K is 2nd. And PewPewU is my pick for 3rd, though the tiniest of arguments could be made to say that The Moon is better.

Im pretty sure most agree on that
1. PPMD
2. M2K.
3. This is probably either PPU or Moon but i would agree on that PPU is either, though Moon is an amazing player too.

PP's Marth has had the upper hand on M2K's many times. In general, PP's Marth can deal with more matchups, including spacies, which he can deal with pretty much as well as M2K can if not better. M2K revolutionized Marth, just like Ken did, however I when I watch PP, he seems to embody Marth, much more than any other player today does.

I agree with this 100%. PPMD is definitely the top Marth, with M2K being in second and my third vote would be Moon over PewPewU by a very very slim margin.

PPMD, M2K, PPU

M2K is the best at certain things, but PP overall seems to have eclipsed him in performance. Both are noticeably ahead of PPU, but PPU sits very prominently in 3rd place imo.

PP
M2K
PPU

The Moon is a fantastic player and quite a flashy marth. very interesting to watch but PPU, much like PPMD plays the "true marth" as I think Scar put it in the PP PewPew set at apex but just not as good as PP.
From my observations at least

The one thing that M2K does better than PP is making everything he does to spacies look absolutely amazing. Just look at his set with Leffen at Paragon.
