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...
Would be however Federer is the player that has the most grand-slams, surpassing Sampras' record last year

I don't like Zerg but Jaedong has earned respect of haters and T1 fans alike. Congrats Jaedong!

Man! JD is so tantalizingly close to being on equal footing with Flash. I KNOW he he can do it! He just needs to continue his recent pace into the individual leagues and DESTROY ALL!
However, much respect to both Flash and JD (and Nada, who is still EPIC in my eyes)!

I'm pretty sure one of his alts, whiterabb1t, was a 'bisu fan'. HE had an SKT tag.
Edit- An example of a whiterabb1t post-
Couldnt be more wrong! Bisu alone could wreck the entire CJ! haha
And I'm not really sure how you could call someone who had so many alt accounts honest.

Don't know if you follow sc2, but Nada is a gosu there. Innovative and mechanically strong. His last GSL attempt was awesome.

Gratz Jaedong!
@Harmonious Nada is also on doing his school right?

NaDa has never won any GSL title but he's probably the most consistent Code S player or terran for that matter.

Notable fact: Only Stork have more losses (245) than Jaedong (208) from nowadays playing gamers...
So Jaedong is really close to be the "Most losing player in BW" right now.
