Some people aren't doing a top 5 NRS players of all time list. They are doing the best players from each game. Which players were the most consistent in all 3 games? This, to me, doesn't mean getting top 8 at EVO once or even twice in the span of the 3 games. Getting top 8 at EVO is probably the equivalent of getting top 8 at 2.5 majors. It's worth more than a major but not that much more.
