You just shouldnt't take it so seriously, because allstar teams are always based on reputation, not skill.
I bet that no-one has seen ALL players playing, so one can't say that someone is better than everybody else. IIRC, Rivaldo was selected to the Champions League allstar team, although he was just a substitute during whole season.
Secondly, "best player" is very subjective thing. People have different reasons to pick a player. E.g. some people think that the best player is not just most skillful but also fair and a teamplayer.
Thirdly, an allstar team is not neccesery the best team. With best players they still can have bad tactics, bad teamplay or their core players are not able to play in all matches.
Professional allstar matches are usually organized just for money and publicity. They have no competitional purpose, because of the facts stated above. However in non-pro DB, I think already the idea of having allstar match against Cy13 is bad, because in the worst case everyone will take it too seriously as a match of good and evil, which will end into a flamewar
