Pfft, what a load of crap. Flash is a damn good player but nowhere near as scary as Savior was back in his era of dominance. With Flash you can expect other players (Jaedong, Stork) to give him a run for his money, but when you watched Savior play it used to be just to see how he overwhelms the other players' armies. Watching to see him 'compete' was out of the question - you simply presumed that he would auto-win, whether it be against Nada or iloveoov, it was just a question of how fucking awesomely he would do it.

I remember Rekrul saying something about how he ended up blowing all his money on whores though.


Actually that is incorrect. Savior, while dominant in leagues for a long time, never had the dominant streaks displayed by today's players. What he does have, is 4 starleague golds and 2 silvers, but never streaks. Current gen top progamers (like Flash and to a lesser extent JD) are more dominant.

so what youre saying is.beating oov 3-0,nada 3-1, reach 3-1(i think?) and then beating silver or chojja one in a zvz bo5 in their respective primes(ok silver/chojja are doubtful) not being dominate?

MA BONJWA

This thread feels a bit presumptuous though; he could just get surgery and come back; THERE'S ALWAYS HOPE GUYS. I think though, everyone has already stopped believing.

But I'm still here. I STILL BELIEVE.

Not at all what I said. In fact, if you re-read my post, I mentioned he was dominating starleagues. All I said he never had long dominating streaks.

Savior was a great player; one of the greatest of all time, but it is a good time to retire in my opinion. At this point he's just tarnishing his reputation.

The lack of intense physical competition in "E-sports" lends itself to old washed up names (not to include Savior) returning from the grave to torture all their fans and embarrass themselves with their pathetic skillZ

Imagine Mario Lemieux lacing up the skates for one more season.

Sad to see. I wish him luck in the future if he does retire! I hope he becomes a coach or something though D:

you dont have the problem where your legs are bent all day they get too sore to move? idk (im just guessing really) maybe sitting infront of it degenerated part of his leg or something is the only thing i could come up with..they do , play sports so maybe that tore something or sped the process up.

WUT?
Most Jaedong's wins came from proleague, playing progamers no one even cares about... like.. ganzi... oh wait he lost to ganzi. rofl sAviOr got his wins from winning starleagues.. beating the best players 3-0.. I remember NaDa saying "The less games you play the harder it is to do well, you try to play as safe as possible, and it really increases your chances of losing" ... or something like that lol..
Basically.. sAviOr won an OSL on the most ridiculous maps playing terrans thats had insaneeeee tvz... like all their tvz winrates were like 10%+ higher lmao.

Flash is more dominant? Which is why he just lost an MSL to power outage.?. sAviOr overcame longinus/reverse temple/neo-arkanoid/hitch hiker, a simple power outage would've been simple..

I feel like 8 people at least will call me an idiot after this post.. its really hard to click the post button i swear.. im going to hit preview first methinks...

That OSL Finals game between Savior and Nada on Reverse Temple will always be ingrained in my mind as the prime example of Savior's dominance. He basically threw map balance out the window.

NOOO THE ONLY BONJWA THAT ISN'T A TERRAN IS RETIRING!!!! This makes me so sad, watching sAviOr dominate the game was when I first started following the StarCraft scene! Who remembers that stats they showed when he was playing? Crazy!
