"25-3 is 25 and 3. If it was so easy for EffOrt to accomplish, then why doesn't it happen really often?"
It happened 3 other times within the last ~4 months.

Please point out the other 3 people who have gone 25-3 in the past 4 months.

Bisu, Jaedong, Leta.

Where are you getting this from? I just checked TLPD, none of those players have had a streak like that.

Jaedong's best was 17-3
Bisu's best was 13-3
Leta's best was 23-3

You're wrong about Jaedong. His best was 24-3.

[image loading]


That is fucking impressive. 3 Bo5s, vs the 2nd best toss in finals, a Terran that was doing well at the time, and the best T of the time. The game vs Best on Demon's forest was an all in by JD vs Best, 1hat hydra due to map imbalance. His loss vs stork on persona was also a lurk/ling all in. So the only straight up loss on that list was a loss to Flash's mech on Katrina. That shows you to the extent of his dominance.

lol you're disgusting. You try several stupid arguments as to why effort is not that good, fail all of them and then try to spin it off as you letting cj fans hype in peace.

ridiculous

Your CJ bias has blinded you. Do you even know what point I'm trying to get across? I've admitted several times that Effort's gameplay has bordered on S+ class and have agreed with such posters here and in the PR. What do you want from me? I'm just advising a grain of salt. Calm down fusionsdf.
See, then I realized people don't like taking a grain of salt, so I'd stop. But then you lash out like me.
I've never said Effort's not great, maybe that he's not the best ever or unprecedented, but really.


thats cool

then you've been arguing with no one for the past couple pages. Nobody I think is seriously calling effort greatest player ever.

But just keep making stupid arguments and say everyone who calls you out on it a blind fanboy if it makes you happy.

Effort has been playing pretty godlike lately, but I wanna see him play some bo3/bo5's. Looking forward to his future performances.

I remember when I just started following pro gaming a bit over a year and a half ago
And watching Effort's games
I didn't think of him as anything too special then
This really caught me off guard lol
Effort came out of nowhere and just started dropping top players like flies

Glad to see the Zerg have another powerhouse on their side.

Sweet Jesus Effort has passed Bisu in ELO.

He is now a whole 9 ELO points away from clear first.

You can't discount his all-in losses while counting his all-in wins.

In fact you can't discount anything at all, except for that Demon Forest thing which was a ridic rigged map. Why? Because of balance: going for all-in in a game effects not only that game but others: it's balances your range of builds and effects how players play against you.

I don't think winning winning more PL matches against mediocre players can say anymore about Effort. Sure, adding to the already impressive streak is good, but it really no longer acts as a testament to his skills. As people have been saying in this thread the PR comments, he needs to start winning BoX matches and standing with the top players in the individual leagues.

He said "in the last 4 months". I didn't look back that far. That streak was from over a year ago.

Actually, the way ELO ratings work make it just as hard to gain X points over a long run from a player rated 200 points below you as it is from someone rated 200 points above you, UNLESS one of you has recently changed skill level drastically.

In ELO, if a 2280 player plays a 2000 rated player for 10,000 games, they will theoretically both end with the same rating they started at.

The real, important conclusion: you can't newb-bash in ELO. So saying that Effort's ELO doesn't count because he's only playing weak players doesn't make sense (edit: nobody is actually specifically saying this). That said, there is still variance in any game and as such I'd say Effort is overrated and running hot.

/thread derail.
I guess it was bad of me to say other players have accomplished a 25-3.
What I meant was that other players have recently accomplished a streak that is comparable or better (or slightly worse) than Effort's based on who they've played and such.
I didn't expect to be taken so literally.
