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. | ||

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. | ||

Jaedong has as many starleague golds as those two combined, and is a combined 4-0 against those two in bo5s. | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||
