I'm surprised there's not more retirements really, I expect a few more in the near future at least... does anyone think Jaedong for example, would have the motivation to learn a whole new game? He's looked like he's had enough for ages now, after the dual starleagues. It's a shame really, because as a big fan of him i think it's kinda sad how Flash is so much more revered when imo Jaedong at his peak was as good if not better. When did he last lose a series against a P, 2009? Has the second highest vT ELO despite it being the worst matchup statistically through almost the whole history of BW, no other Z comes close to some of the best ZvT he's shown. And vZ he managed to keep 80% for a long period, and still today 72% despite it being a 'coinflip', (even Calm once called it such). All this while everyone is targeting him specifically with abusive special builds. Remember the ensnares vs Fantasy before queens were cool? dual stack mutalisks? turning an 0-2 final into 3-2, figuring out a counter-strategy on-the-fly.. meanwhile Flash loses a final being 2-0 up and then just repeats the 14CC ecocheese risk to beat Jaedong, knowing there's only early pool that can directly counter it and has no good follow up. 1rax CC vs 12hatch on a balanced map i would take JD any day. He's still 23-22 head-to-head vs Flash in spite of balance, sometimes downright awful maps and abusive TvZ strategies. Not to put down Flash at all. Just think JD has an edge. Bisu will not get as much credit as deserved either i suspect, unfortunately it's entirely his fault for that though. | ||
