No, i don't. It's just funny because we have facts. Facts > opinions.

Flash>All It's the fact. And this fact isn't cool for Jaedong funs, i agree with it.

Jaedong is my alltime favourite player (sorry Boxer!). Absolutely outstanding.

Dong is the king now and forever. Mentally toughest, mechanically strongest Starcraft player ever.
NaDa's accomplishments never real feel as impressive to me as maybe they should, simply because they were from a different era of objectively inferior play. For Football fans it's like Real Madrid in the 50's, they were just crushing everyone but it was a whole different game back then. They are still respected for their awards but they don't even come into the discussion compared to today's Barcelona or some of the 80's and 90's teams (AC Milan with Marco Van Basten comes to mind).
Flash and Jaedong feel like the real deal for me. Just watch one of the Coca-Cola starleagues that recently went up on nevake if you want a laugh compared to current BW. NaDa advanced ahead a bit quicker than everyone else and crushed everyone for a period. But does it fee like Flash's ridiculous peak recently? It's not the same to me. And not just bias because NaDa left for SC2, because he was a great player even right up until he left.
Number of titles never feels like the right measure of skill anyway when you have so many Starleagues were arguably the better player lost or it just had a weird bracket. Let's rate them by their play at their best. Jaedong in ZvT at his best is the best ZvT ever in the game, his ZvP when practiced and at his peak is almost unbeatable, and he redefined ZvZ skill to the point where he had the highest win ratio in any matchup. your entire analogy crumbles to the counterexample of Pele vs. Messi. different does not necessarily mean easier, simpler versus more complex is the better and more precise association, but even for that there's an argument for and against relevance. you should glorify Nada. but you should also put Jaedong up there with him, and Flash above. the analogy here is better taken from from tennis: Bjorn Borg as Nada vs. Nadal as JD, with Federer as Flash, taken from 09-10, before Federer's smooth decline out of the no.1. spot; with time, JD will be better remembered for his rivalry with Flash and the fact that he occasionally was no.1, slowing the legend down from his complete domination, and scoring a couple records of his own, and less for how "good" he was. it's how sports history works through the minds of the fans when achievements become memories and statistics. people who were there though will always talk about the unforgettable matches that happened, but realistically the names JD or Bisu will never carry the same weight of Nada or Flash in esports history years from now, even if they will always be up there being brought up with the likes of oov and savior.
Wouldn't Flash be Nadal? the younger and better player...

So it takes a combination of Flash + Jaedong to match Nada's record.
Nada remains king.

I think Leta having 23 ace wins is more surprising ;o

Flash's ace match slump comes back to bite him in the ass.

if jaedong never wins another title i will cry myself to sleep every night.
go JD!~!!
I feel like ever since flash won almost everything last year that somehow JD became the most liked BW progamer on TL (maybe cause all Z and P players clung to him to be against flash in some sorta way). is that just me or do other people feel that way too?
I always thought he is the most liked current BW progamer since forever :-)
