This is a brutal matchup for Savior. Zero's mutalisk micro is Jaedong-level.

We shall see what happens, I'm definitely cheering for Savior.

Zero has nothing to learn from GGPlay. Unless Zero moves to Hwaseung or CJ, I don't see him becoming a big name because he isn't young (by progaming standards) and he has no great mentors.


although zero has weak ZvZ partners that doesnt mean he has weak ZvZ.... jaedong?

what I meant was that he has less room to improve



I have to say a lot of times i feel that practice partner teammates are overrated. I mean how can you explain bisu's excellent PvZ, FBH's abysmal TvP, and Flash's TvT/Z/P if good teammates to practice with is related so much to a player's skill in a MU?


it's not just always just about in-house practice partners. for example, stork gave credit to much for the builds he used to defeat best last osl. and anyway, for regular matches, don't a-team members usually practice with b-team members? so i doubt fbh practices with stork / jangbi very often except for especially important matches, if then

yeah thats my point, just because a player doesnt have any other strong players on his team, it doesnt mean that he will by default be disadvantaged for matches.

i would guess fbh asks stork and jangbi pretty often to practice with him. i remember a while ago stork was talking about how fbh kept on improving at tvp after a lot of practicing with the protoss teammates. nevertheless, i agree with ideas that teammates don't have too much of an effect on the player's potential. i don't think it's fair to say that mind had more potential just because he had nada. if a player is talented, he will get good regardless of who he has within the team to practice against. also, do you really think that one and a half year of age difference really speaks that much about potential?

I disagree. Having good people to practice again is ridiculously important if you want to get good.

Why is ACE bad? Boxer himself said it's not because they don't get enough practice time (plenty of that he says), but because of the low number of people to practice with.

oh i meant to say the players' potential. he was saying that nada is the difference in what mind and zero can achieve. i mean of course having good teammates will make you better. but i still think zero has more than enough resources/players to work with.

besides, players often practice with their friends from different teams anyway. i just don't buy the argument that teammates is what makes mind's skill potential higher than zero's. but on the other hand, i have to say that having nada next to you must give you some extra confidence booster

Imbalance is about the difference between likelihood of winning right before the game starts

If position is important then each player has the same chance of getting the good/bad position before playing the game. I dont see how it could be about standard imbalance issue

I think Ace is bad because of the differents of perspective. A pro gamer playing in proleague is living the dream and every win is one step close to that ultimate #1 ranking. Ace players are Ex-pro gamers now in the military. Yes they are very very fucking good, but there is just no way they can have the same mentality or results playing just in team leagues against people striving for the OSL/MSL/GOM.... That is what I think it is, limited potential of good results, stems good results... What do you think?

It's funny though, even though savior has achieved more than almost everybody nobody really considers him a bonjwa. He even took the path of the bonjwa, would you guys say he's a bonjwa?

Savior is bonjwa. He's the sole zerg bonjwa.

What?

Are you new? Pretty sure any sane person considered Savior bonjwa in 2006, he's the reason they coined the term in the first place.
