I wish I had lived when Savior dominated so much. Watching him almost live. I believe that it'd be so wonderful rather than being able to watch his games that were 3 years ago and without knowing the electricity felt during that time.
iris vs savior shin han 3 semifinals match 5. You might be able to catch a glimpse of the glory that was Savior's reign .

And I hate Jaedong. Why? His elo is only strong because like all players he gets a shitload of opportunities to play games against scrubs in PL. He looks like hes the most dominant zerg in history because of the elo but hes not even close. Hes consistent, and hes consistently good, but he has absolutely no ground to stand on compared to savior's dominance. But modern Jaedong fan boys dont know that, and they think hes the best zerg there ever was? Its disgusting. I hate Jaedong because his fans play him up to be best zerg ever, which makes him a usurper. While in reality, both Jaedong and all other pro gamers know, he doesn't really deserve the honour of even that. :\

Edit: Flash pisses me off for the same reason


Don't take away from JD's accomplishments, he's playing quite well. I will agree though that he is not on par with the Maestro. I really hope to see sAviOr overcome his non-SC obstacles and make a comeback.

The reason all the Jaedong fanboys get so hyped about him being the best zerg is because alot of them weren't a part of progaming when sAviOr was taking the throne. I have two friends that I've gotten into progaming and they were like "lol heritage league? Who are these guys" and after looking at current standings of Savior, Boxer, they got all mocking. "A bunch of bad players in a league...boring"... Every single time JD, Bisu, Flash would play they would get all "_____ is about to get owned" and talk about how AMAAAAZING those three were.

I wanted to slap the shit out of them for laughing at the current stats of those playing in E-Stars. The Heritage post by riptide was amazing and I made them both read it and they humbled up and were like "whoa shit Boxer did this and that" and "sAviOr managed what?" and are now a lot more knowledgeable about progaming.

So instead of getting pissed off at the fanboys preachingt he "Jaedong best zerg ever", just laugh on the inside at how noobish they are making themselves look.

He played well in the Bonjwa-only tournamnet. And he did pretty good after that. Maybe that tournament will make him happier and get him to make a comeback?

Man, I only really started to watch a lot of starcraft during the Savior era, so I remember him better than even Boxer. Of course back then I was rooting for the other player every time he was playing, because he would always win. It was insane, I'd never seen anyone like that and haven't seen anyone that dominating since. I also stayed up and watched his finals 0-3 versus this scrub named Bisu that nobody knew anything about. What a historic day, by the third game I was yelling "build a fucking spore colony!!!" into my monitor.

Thanks for the interview.

I've said this before. skyhigh is CJ's equivalent of FBH

That's crazy. I didn't know Savior and SuJu were acquaintances.

LOL Skyhigh = FBH of CJ. That's so funny.

Great work on the translations man! It's awesome to get to read the words of the Maestro. Even though he was before my time, I still hold great respect for him as an innovator and an achiever.

Uhm... Just a thought, i could also just say:
Savior could be so dominant for so long because he didn't have to play as many games as nowadays *big guns*?

Jaedong might not be the "most dominant zerg ever" but he is "the best Zerg ever" (atm, this is still can change, as long as the game is played). You see it when you watch him play -.-.
I like some other Zergs more than him but it's kinda futile to say someone else is the best Zerg ever (same goes for Bisu).

And if someone argues this with July or Nada they just slap them with their golden mouses .


A lot of players were the best X ever, but if we accept that the players get better and better because the metagame gets more complicated/faster and so on, then nowadays best players are the best ever.
It's like that in every sport, get over it.

i disagree about bisu. its not only that players can't copy his "intuition and know-how" but they simply can't copy his speed. the same with Jaedong. they have the fastest reaction / reflex speed out of anyone. even something as simple as bisu's probe stays alive far longer than other P's.


yeah I definately agree, Bisu has SICK control matched with intuition and reaction speed, which makes him a beast especially in PvZ.

People don't share the same definition of "best" is the simplest way of putting it.


Plus, when it comes to sports and politics, there will ALWAYS be someone to argue that X player is not and won't ever be the best.
