but when you say there are less MP gods I would disagree

One of the MP legends said something about it being harder to dominate now because everyone is better than they use to be

Honestly I think it depends on the person, some people will just be good at SP and some will be good at MP its a different skill.

at the moment I would say it would take longer to be the best at SP because the amount of time spent by the people currently at the top is higher
