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.


This ^, also as many have already pointed out savior played on maps that highly favored the other races and dominated on them. On a side note, savior did all this domination when zerg was gimped compared to T and P. Jaedong didnt invent any strats, he got them served to him on a silver platter by July, savior and others, and then just deployed them with great skill. Sure this defines a _good_ player, but not a bonjwa.

He is more BONJWA: he has better results than Savior in all possible meanings


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.

Ok, but what does 'complete dominance' means? Statistics say that Savior wasn't as dominant as Jaedong, he was losing more games and winning less games.

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).


Jaedong has as many starleague golds as those two combined, and is a combined 4-0 against those two in bo5s.
That wasn't any act of God. That was an act of pure human fuckery.

What about Kwanro on Outsider? He was pretty good at that map.. while Jaedong wasn't.
What about Effort on Heartbreak Ridge? He was pretty good at that map.. while Jaedong wasn't.
What about Firefist on Heartbreak Ridge? 7-0, Jaedong: 9-11.
Bonjwa indeed.

Edit: Bonjwas should be able to win on any map, if their race can win on it.. then they should have no problems. Even if its racially imbalanced against them-- they should still be competitive on it.

No one here is discrediting jaedong. He is a great player and with flash have been in a class of their own for a while. But to compare them to the old greats like savior and iloveoov and say they are greater is short sighted because these two players are the ones who laid the path for these 2 players to become where they are now.

I love Savior and have no intention to discredit him, but if we use your logic, then July is greater than Savior, and Yellow is greater than July and Savior.

We shouldn't argue about he greatest zergs of all time, Savior went into an eternal slump for our sins, he resurrected himself in the form of Jaedong, and one day, he too will disappear.

And it's pretty easy to argue for what JD has done for zvp but of course you either just glossed over/ conveniently forget/never noticed/all of the above.

They've both done a lot for the zerg race and trying to be like hurrrrr x >> y or y >> x is just silly.

Jaedong is a better player. Not even I will argue this, and anyone on these forums for a good length of time knows that this means a good deal.

sAviOr is the Bonjwa because of his dominance. sAviOr brought fear like Jaedong never did.

The Kespa rankings, at the very least, aren't comparable - there's so many more games now than before, and IIRC the points system was changed at least at one point in the past.

As well, Savior also dominated in an era where no other players could be compared to him in strength. Right now no one can say that about Jaedong, when Flash is around.
