Well shouldn't stats be a bad thing to use to compare? I mean these days people play much more games. It is obvious that Jaedong is way better than savior, but Jaedong has really never had Savior's dominance. Jaedong has always had Flash and Bisu to compete with for dominance. Savior was the real last bonjwa. Also didn't the term bonjwa start with savior?

Statistically, you're right. Jaedong surpassed sAviOr in all aspects.

What Jaedong has that makes him less Bonjwa than sAviOr, however, is that Jaedong, even in his prime, had his equals such as Flash.

The sAviOr of 2006 HAD NO EQUALS. The best that sAviOr got was Midas, who choked.

If you are going to talk about feelings and influences, then fine.
But we are talking about straight up statistics and accomplishments. In that respect, JD > Savior. It is undeniable.

no. Jaedongs dominance was not as isolated as sAviOr's. During Jaedongs peak, players like Flash, Bisu, Stork, and Fantasy showed themselves as equals. sAviOr had no equal and nothing close to that until he was dethroned by Bisu.

Also, sAviOr revolutionized all zerg matchups, showed a game sense that no player had come close to, and reinvented zerg management from the ground up. Jaedong is the perfect zerg, but he hasn't brought nearly as much to the table in terms of innovation.

All these "Bonjwa" threads and "MY FAVORITE PLAYER IS DA BEST" threads are getting pretty bad. They bring out the same stale arguments and it never goes anywhere.

there would be no modern zerg

why are people constantly talking down the old greats. I keep seeing "flash was so much better than nada lol" "jaedong > savior" "bisu > nal_ra" etc.

Well, of course new players are better. Discussions about players should be kept relative to their era : / It's just ridiculous to compare a top player from now to a top player from 2006. NaDa vs sAviOr finals looks like two b-teamers playing, at least mechanically.

It's about dominance, not overall titles or even skill level. Savior dominated in a way Jaedong never did. He had a 70% win rate over an eighteen month period and won more titles in a shorter span of time. He had an aura about him that JD never did.

This is a strong argument.

It would be very interesting to compare win rates over periods of time, I hope TL will add this option.

Also, what would sAviOr's record look like if they [the players back then] played even half as many games as they do now? I imagine it would only be even more beastly.

Agree

Also, Savior's dominance relative to his peers was much greater then Jaedong's "dominance" relative to his (since he was never "dominate" compared to Bisu and Flash).

This is so true. Savior's 3 gas hive build and heavy defiler usage created the modern ZvT.

rofl you don't even know what bonjwa means. It means complete dominance in your era. The existence of flash makes jaedong not bonjwa and vice versa.

This. is by far the best argument. Just look at the maps, they were made esspecially AGAINST ONE PLAYER. Give me a map ,where u would say "hey they made this map so JD wont be as dominating as of now.. "

you just cant.
