Like you're seeing the light of day after getting caved in then suddenly rocks fall on your place. Yes, that s2 match will dig a bigger hole in his regular ELO and vZ | ||

Now you've just got to work past imba vT! while he probably wont make get the overall #1 from flash, he might be the #1 zerg soon though currently at 2265 (personal best), yellows record is only 7 points away I wonder how long yellow being #1 zvt lasted, like 8 years? | ||

Jaedong's win rate vT is only slightly lower than Yellow's was, and like Yellow, he tends to beat lesser terrans most of the time and only lose to the best of them. the slight inflation in elo over time can account for JD being only so slightly behind despite having a 3% worse win rate. | ||

On August 20 2010 03:54 Mindcrime wrote: yellow having the best zvt elo of all time shows how dumb elo is for bw Wait what? Are you an idiot or something? Yellow maintained 67% wins for over two years to achieve that peak. And out of the 82 ZvT games he played during that time period, 20 were against Boxer. To give you an idea, Jaedong is 74-41 (64%) in the past 24 months with only 16 games played against Flash. A lower win percentage and a much lower percentage of games played against S-class rivals. ELO isn't the best measure of SC skill, and it often is terribly inaccurate when comparing cross-generational achievement (for instance, Savior at his peak was maintaining about 70% wins in ZvT for about 2 years, but played far fewer games during that time period, and furthermore, many changes happen to metagame affecting things like balance and how easy it is to maintain dominance in a match-up -- for example ZvZ has always been somewhat of a coinflip, but overtime it's been steadily becoming less of a coinflip... 60% wins in that MU used to be jaw-dropping amazing, but now it's actually common among top ZvZ players -- not to mention that many top SC players burst forth as rookies and can take down S-class giants even while though their ELO ranks indicate they shouldn't be able to)... But where you come off on this notion that Yellow is not worthy of the highest level of honors for his ZvT is absolutely beyond me. I can only think that you must have started watching SC long after Yellow's peak had come to an end. | ||

Oh, yeah, he strung some wins together against terrans to get a meaninglessly high elo. Look what happened right after his peak vt elo. He lost yet another bo5 vs. a terran. Look at all the bo5s he played against terrans in the two major leagues. Do you know what his record is in those bo5s? Its 0-8 | ||
