If flash gets double SL win his gain will be hardcore, especially coupled with PL domination. I wonder what it will look like.

The only thing it's a sign of is that other zergs finally wisened up and started mimicking Jaedong. When the other races get someone as dominant as he is they'll improve as well.

You must know by now that most players just copy/paste. There are very few visionaries.

And imo, terran is still imba towards zerg, the top zerg players are just better than most of the top terran players at the moment

Something about each month's wins/losses being worth a certain amount, and that value dropping each month and finally disappearing after a year.

Would you look at that, it's on the first page of the thread.

The top 20 players by peak ELO, straight from TLPD. Parenthesized number is their age when they hit their peak ELO:

Flash (17)
Bisu (19)
Jaedong (19)
iloveoov (20)
NaDa (18)
sAviOr (19)
EffOrt (18)
fantasy (18)
JangBi (19)
YellOw (19)
GoRush (20)
BoxeR (21)
Stork (19)
Calm (20)
July (18)
BeSt (19)
ChoJJa (18)
XellOs (19)
Midas (17)
Hwasin (19)

Flash is currently at his peak, but he's 17. The only other player in the top 20 who peaked at 17 was Midas. Jaedong is currently 19, but he'll be 20 in 4 days (who's up for a party?!). The only player who wasn't on the downhill of their career during their 20th year was Boxer.

The chances that Flash doesn't continue to improve are just as low as the chances that Jaedong improves. Flash will pass Jaedong within the year, virtually guaranteed.

--oberon

EDIT: Also, anyone who cares should note that the "current age" in TLPD is off by one for Jaedong, but not everyone. Some sort of bug in there...

How do you measure imba, though? If there aren't many Terrans who can stand up to the top Zergs, how does that then translate to T>Z imbalance? Map stats probably show that there's still a slight T>Z imba among non-A+/S-class players, but I think the very top players are playing on a field that looks more like:

Z = T
Z > P
P > T

Hence so many Zergs, a decent number of Protoss, and almost no top Terrans (Flash and Sea are the only Ts I would call 'top players' right now, compared to like 8-9 Zergs and 7-8 Protosses).
Favorite progamers (in order): Flash, Stork, Violet, Sea. ||| Get better soon, Violet!

What?

Number of Terrans with vZ ELO above 2100: 10
Number of Zergs with vT ELO above 2100: 7

Number of Terrans with vZ ELO above 2050: 21
Number of Zergs with vT ELO above 2050: 12
