LOL...Savior man handled Boxer. And no, Boxer wasn't "saving" anything for Yellow. If you read his interview, it was clear that he had prepared strategies to fight Savior. The problem is that Savior's game sense is just a step above the rest. Watch those games carefully. Savior had his eyes out for anything unusual and then he would force Boxer into a position where Boxer was playing Savior's game.

In my mind, nobody has been this dominating over his opponents since NaDa's reign. In fact, Savior is quite possibly the most dominating player in the history of Starcraft. Boxer never was the kind of player who adjusted the tempo to his will but rather he was the kind of player who would find holes in his opponent's tempo and exploit them. July was similar. Even Oov, as good as he was about setting the tempo to his taste, often relied on the fact that he would consistently overpower his opponent and in every confrontation, Oov's army would grow in relative size to his opponent's. In some cases, it would even appear as if his army grew in absolute size.

No, the only player who ever compared with Savior in terms of setting the tempo of the game and forcing his opponent to play his game was NaDa from his prime. That's what I loved so much in NaDa and what I am now loving so much in Savior -- it's perfection.



I would also like to add some thoughts with respect to IEF. Some people watching those games between Savior and Oov thoght that Savior threw them. Well, the game 12/3 LT was most certainly doomed from the start since 12/3 ZvT against a monster like Oov is about as tough as it gets. But in game 2, we saw a different side to Savior where he wasn't playing as his usual macro-oriented self. In his games vs Boxer, Savior was being extremely prudent about searching for proxies and cheese. I think that Savior had it in his mind that Boxer would try to force him into a low econ game so Savior decided to practice his low econ game. Just a hunch, and maybe it's totally wrong. Still, Savior played uncharateristically.

who is his favorite player to watch?

Boxer. He's the most fun, because he's not perfect. He's flawed, but then when he makes up for those flaws it's fun to watch.

lol guys shut up and watch Midas vs Savior last MSL again. You guys are ridiculous.
Yes Savior is the best zerg atm, but July's style was considered invincible for awhile and it wasn't long before gaps appeared. In Midas vs Savior, you can finally see where Savior is evenly matched with his opponent. He is just finally a zerg on the same level as Midas and those 70% winners, the S-Classes.

Just because he crushed Boxer, people are like.. most dominating EVER... lol
You guys obviously don't remember the Terran Terror that was ILoveOov.

Still, Savior IS disgusting but reigns of terror from a player don't come like they used to. Everyone is too sick to let that happen nowadays. But there are still players who can stand toe-to-toe with him and not be an underdog.

One thing I do wish I had gotten to see one last time was Boxer's dropships... T.T
