I think he's still far from the pristine play of Bisu, Flash, or even Larva, though. A lot of the play in the series was very sloppy with several serious mistakes (losing a ton of drones to storm drops and DTs), but the outright aggression in the early game managed to give him an edge and keep him going into the late game without dying. This is kind of nitpicky, but Effort's very style means it's a lot harder for his play to look pristine. It's by design though. Flash plays with the philosophy "I want to create a type of game where I will make 3 mistakes and you will make 12". Effort's is more like "I want to create a type of game where I will make 30 mistakes and you will make 45". The latter will generally *look* worse but both are super effective if you can actually pull it off. Some might argue Effort's style isn't stable enough, but like Flash's style, he's made it work to great success even though no one else can really copy it. He hasn't had as much success as Flash of course, but Effort's one of the few players in BW history with >60% winrates in every matchup. Bisu doing chaos PvZ and still looking pristine might be the most impressive thing from a pure aesthetic standpoint to watch in all of BW. | ||
