While Lee Jae Dong was a leader of the zerg, there was nothing holy in his play. His aggressive style crushed the opposition brutally, it tempted the terran man into greed and destroyed them for it. I bet if you forced Jaedong to play a more management heavy style he would do it better than Effort. + Show Spoiler +It's really cold in this room so I figured I'd try and start a fire

EffOrt is definitely one of my favourite players. Top Zerg for sure at least.

Should we let Hwasin win an OSL before we start calling him the red sniper? It's his nickname. That, and Hawkeye. It has more to do with his relationship to "savior" than anything. I don't get where they got messiah, its not like he saved the zerg race, the zerg race was already kicking ass when he came into the scene

There's like...nothing to save...during Savior's prime things looked seriously horrible for Zerg b/c of maps like Longinus and the Reverse Temple which strongly favored Terran...but right not it's Zerg's age...(half of OSL and MSL prelim survivors are Zergs...)

Effort's face looks pretty weird in that pic, but those jackets make up for it. If Effort can pick up his recent zvz play he'll really be a force to reckon with. Great article!
|
More fluff.
Win something first then advertise.
|
very nice written. please keep conrtinuing!
|
just read it again because it is just that amazing, grats on 4k posts, i actually didnt see that last time.
|
good read. Omg i so like Effort game, he is so good. But he have to hang up is ZvZ, he is slupping a little bit right now
|
if Effort is the messiah, then what is Jaedong?
|
Jaedong is the Tyrant. The Legend Killer.

wait sorry why is most of the article the PR entry? o.O
pretty post though
|
effort is a bad player overall
|
its supposed to be fluff guys
im not making a serious attempt at analysis or anything like that. just something fluffy and nice for other effort fanboys
his nickname is already the messiah btw. he is the heir to savior's management style so it makes sense

I like the duality of Jaedong being the Tyrant and Effort being the Messiah.
Too bad Jaedong is still kind of tyranting.
Kind of sad Flash has no real counterpart/mentor though. =\ Fantasy's whole "Crown Prince" Deal with boxer, Effort's Messiah with savior.
Though I guess the four kings or whatever (Flash/Stork/Bisu/Jaedong) are all amazing unto themselves and have no specific mentor to acredit like Effort and Fantasy.
Now that I think about it, I'm kind of wondering if having that mentor/mentee relationship, or at the very least that shadow, is what's stopped Fantasy and Effort from going all the way and truly coming out of their shell (Fantasy came close with PL finals but the stomping he had the following week at the hands of Jaedong deflated the crap out of it.)

flash is so far above the next best terrans (fantasy/leta/sea) it's not even funny

No I get it. It's just that savior's "savior" from the beginning, his fan-given nick is maestro and tbh he earned it (and mafailstro lol).
I'll go with hawkeye (??) but this messiah business is just rofl more pun than truth. Bisu revolutionist, yea, Flash ultimate weapon, okay. Effort messiah...? Hes obviously a martian, the martian zerg. Check in his hair for antenna xD
