this is exactly right. everybody likes an underdog beating a dominant player but there's not much interest in an underdog beating another underdog

Sucking badly for two years after being in 2 finals before and losing both in a disappointing fashion. And he was last Protoss standing. Also, Protoss hadn't won a title for like 3 years. yeah, meaning theyd rather watch jangbi than flash. do you get it yet? Stop being so condescending, I don't think they're arguing that Jangbi wasn't the fan favorite. They're just arguing that flash winning wouldn't kill ESPORTS
I am specifically saying that Flash being a dominant player helps esports. No one gives a fuck about Jangbi's win if Flash is just a pretty good player at a similar level to everyone around him.

jeez the only terran who is remotely close to flash's level of play is light and that's in a single match up. -.- a bit depressing ....Light? I'm pretty sure it's Baby and Fantasy who are currently fighting for the spot for 2nd best terran. Light for his TvZ which is pretty damn good. T8 vs. Stars spoilers (kinda) + Show Spoiler +
At the moment, I'd consider Baby to be better than Light in every possible way, including TvZ. Everything about his play has been looking absolutely flawless so far. People are too focused on 2010 Light TvZ when he used to destroy every zerg. Even last season, Baby showed some mindblowing TvZ that was second only to Flash's TvZ.
agreed. on the other hand - and i'm a huge baby fan, i've been one of the biggest baby fans on here for a while - he IS pretty streaky Yeah, consistency was his biggest issue last season. But I have a feeling that this is going to be his breakout season.
he has been SLAUGHTERING so far but i don't want to get too excited.

No Light's TvZ is amazing but he has nothing on Flash. OMG LOL, if not troll then OMG LOL seriously? i havent seen anyone who has better TvZ than flash. I became a believer when he raped JD in the MSL
? Am confused. Are you referring to my post?

While I agree having a tyrant isn't necessarily a bad thing. There was far more back story to JangBi's win than that.

There is no dynamism if Flash isn't a godly player. How can you not understand this? If Flash doesn't dominate the sport before, there's nothing but mediocre stagnation as titles alternate between players of similar skill level.
For there to be a wonderful underdog story, there has to be an overdog. No one cares about the greatest upset ever in Bisu > Savior if Savior isn't god tier.

sure. i'm just talking in general terms. this is something i've heard directly from people associated with pro sports organizations. it's great if the yankees lose but you want them to lose in the world series

Either way, game's going on. Let's get back to the real action.
