This really goes to show how truly dominating players like NaDa and Savior were in their primes. These days everyone is hung up on ELO, but ELO has suffered from a lot of inflation (perhaps because there are more KeSPA sanctioned games today than in the past, thus providing more opportunities for top players to prove their skill?) over the years, so it fails to achieve it's goal of comparing the strengths of gamers relative to their respective eras. | ||

Up until January '03 it was an all time ranking, players could only win points, but not lose any. In February '03 it became a 12 months ranking (point distribution for certain achievements might also have changed, no idea). | ||

Two individual league is 1k points i think? That means he'll be over 4k points and bisu still around 2500, and the third place will still be around 2000. This is true. You get a 500 pts bonus for winning a league I think it was... plus the fact that you won games against relatively tough opponents most likely. Huge boost. | ||

Oh well, it's only to be expected when someone goes on monster runs in starleagues. He's got all the statistical makings of a bonjwa, he's just missing that feeling of dominance that I doubt will ever happen again. | ||

I haven't been following starcraft long enough to call anyone the b-word, statistically however he is definitely up there now. | ||

Don't worry, I'm sure that after he gets his break and has everything with Hwaseung settled and has a decent pay, the feeling will come. In my opinion, his death face when he's really playing at his best is scarier than any bonjwa ever was. | ||
