Hatcha mainly because they have introduced other producers tunes within his Dj sets since the early days I think he was the main Djs to get all the dubplates from the then up n coming talent? which shaped tha dubstep scene.
I think Hatcha also introduced Joe nice to dubstep n he is a major Dj in the American scene, and Big up Pinch for running things in Bristol and introducing dubstep with out him we wouldnt have some crazy bristol tunes.

I'll probably stop liking it when it comes popular.

For me, my early influences were Skream, Loefah and N-type, loved it for the darkness and originality. Blipstream was a favourite for me back when I was 16 and still remains a top notch tune in my eyes.

I'm pretty sure it was Hatcha who mentored dmz, at least I read that he was the first to play out their dubs and push their sound.
But yeah I think Hatcha, Youngsta, DMZ (Mala, Coki and Loefah), Skream, Benga and Kode9 are like "the emperors" or "first tier".
Behind the scenes, well, everybody says that Soulja was and is very important to dubstep, past, present, future.
And uhm, well, Horsepower Productions, El-B and other guys from The Roots of Dubstep (boom) deserve a lot of respect too since they laid the foundations of dubstep and other genres basicly.
