Even fucking tester could go on a 10 game streak playing scrubs like the ones Effort has played.

effort has been the best zerg on CJ for quite some time now, almost 9 months: On October 28 2008 04:39 Hot_Bid wrote: Yes, it was the Zerg-favored Raid Assault, but MJY is 3-0 in PL and 5-0 since "The Destroyer Proclaimation".

I can't wait to watch this kid more.

+ Show Spoiler + doctor.k (lol) ganzi (lol) free (2-8 oh boy) hyun (3-7 woah!) lucifer (even better 1-9) forgg (nuff said) pure (2-8) ruby*2 (2-8) july (3 zvz wins in the past year) bogus (who?) baby (3-7 watch game against JD for lulz) hiya (hiya's TvZ T_T) He has certainly come a long way in these 28 games considering that he was on a 5 game losing streak going into them, but imo he is still only top 5. It is going to be very interesting to see if he can keep this up through the SL's and earn a title. | ||

Idra, if you ever read this, some insider information would be greatly appreciated. How good is he in practice? Does he really have a mentor/mentee relationship with savior? | ||
