And for those who say he should be there, I'd love to see him up there as well, but fact is, he doesn't deserve to be up there. Let's say that someone like Tim Duncan, or Kobe Bryant, or any big superstar was caught CHEATING or using STEROIDS or something. Do they deserve to be up on that list for NBA HoF. Hell no. You know the old saying... Cheaters never prosper? Well, there's one thing that they'll never prosper in, getting into the HoF. So stop bitching about sAviOr not in. Maybe he shouldn't have cheated. Ever thought of that? how did he cheat? | ||

Ok, Savior is a bad guy, he cheated, whatever you want, but he has been the most dominant zerg, one of the five or so best players ever, the first to be called bonjwa and the initiator of zerg modern thinking. And definitly the most influential player on zerg's general theory, strategy, build orders and tactics. But oh, let's pretend he didn't exist because huuu herm, he cheated, you know... I guess it doesn't matter that compared to him, three quarters of those players have achieved almost nothing... I have to echo this poster's thoughts. Sad to see people who can't distinguish between the player and the person. ;_; Then again maybe I'm the odd one out here since the only thing that matters to me is skill :s On September 15 2012 23:30 FlaShFTW wrote: ...

Ever thought of that? sAviOr did not cheat... he lost matches for money after hitting his peak. (iloveoov said in one of his interviews it could be due to the fact that sAviOr had gotten really bored in that period of time) Every single one of his wins was legitimate, because he was that motherfucking good, which is why he deserves to be here more than half of the people on the list. ~_~ | ||

This is the Hall of FAME, not the Hall of "this guy won some starcraft games." To suggest that savior deserves this achievement is just dumb. | ||

The fact that he also made top4 in Hanbitsoft OSL and top4 in Pringles-1 MSL, 5 years in-between, is hella impressive. | ||

What if one of those players had committed a grave felony after their playing days such as rape or murder? You wouldn't want him in the hall of fame. Other hall of fames routinely deny or rescind induction for character reasons and this hall of fame is no exception. | ||

Also, sAviOr definitely doesn't deserve to be there because it's largely him and the betting scandal which ended BW in Korea. | ||
