I do think that a circular rivalry would be interesting though Sea<Killer<Jangbi<Sea Well in the case of Killer vs Jangbi: Jangbi has historically not been particularly strong against zerg (often falling to early game attacks, for one). Even when he came out of his slump, and was performing well in individual leagues, he was an underdog to win against any strong, or even decent zerg. While Killer has been a streaky player, he has revealed stretches great play (for example, in one proleague season: 65% overall winning percentage) and although his overall stats don't necessarily show it, he would have been a tough opponent for almost any protoss opponent, now or in the past. Even if Jangbi practices up to the same extent that killer has, it just seems more unlikely than not, based on all historical and present factors, that he would be favoured in a series against killer. I am a Jangbi and Killer fan though, so I wouldn't necessarily begrudge either of them a victory against the other. In the case of Sea vs Jangbi: although Sea has been destroying all protosses so far Sonic Leagues, TvP is historically his worst matchup: 55%. And if you remember in the last full Broodwar Proleague, Sea went through a stretch where he lost something like 7 TvPs in a row (including some against random protosses), and his TvP record was something like 46% for the season. He has proven to been susceptible to good protosses, especially aggressive ones, like Jangbi. In the case of Jangbi, he is one of the 2 best (along with Stork) PvT players in history. He beat Fantasy and Flash in best of series, in the same tournament. In any case, if he practices up to same level as the others, he would probably be able to destroy all Terrans, including Sea. (Sea may be ill suited to deal with the level of PvT play coming out of a practiced Jangbi..it is on another level) And Killer vs Sea: the state of ZvT these days seemingly about sums it up ... :/ | ||
