ELO rankings are used to wear out, which means that 2500 today is not more then 2400 2 years ago etc.
Also blindly following statistics is not the way u'd like to choose if u want to consider urself a clever person. Remember that there is 3 types of lies.

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.

which sadly is totally irrelevant cause Bisu is much better looking.

but you are right JDs 5 titles > The 7 titles of Bisu and savior combined.

I'm sorry, anyone who is so confident he offraces in a Starleague is an instant baller in my book.

Most of your metrics are essentially meaningless "numbers" which seem to capture the essence of the issue, but when examined closely, have so many X-factors that they are rendered pointless.

The only one with some semblance of relevance is medal numbers.

And this is a Savior-anti speaking.

You can't compare peak elo in different time periods. Elo is a RELATIVE stat system, so it's only valuable for comparing the skills of players who are playing in the present, or for comparing two elo ratings that were at the same time period.

While i agree and applaud him for his cojanes it would of been better if he actually won. Savior just brings about fear. To be honest I would feel more scared playing savior then I would playing jaedong.

A comparison of Savior's and jaedong's updated statistics presented in the thread linked below seems to me to be more meaningful than the stats in the OP. Although it's a nice compilation, it does not prove much. Jaedong is [much] more successful than Savior, and easily better than Savior ever was. With the correct definition of "dominance," one could also argue that jaedong is more dominant than savior.

What many of these statistics cloud is how incredible savior was in overcoming map imbalance. Jaedong was dethroned (arguably) with the help of terran-favored maps, and struggled in late '08 when the six dragons were helped by protoss-sided maps. These things didn't apply to savior even when they did every other zerg.

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.


??? What are you smoking, that is not his logic whatsoever.
His point is that these players lived in a different time and... ugh fuk just reread his post its really not hard to understand.
Saying that you cant judge and say that player X is greater than player Y is NOT the same as saying player Y is greater than X, it's just saying that you cant compare these two players just like that.

While my understanding of the elo system is far from perfect I believe that you very much _can_ compare stats from different time periods?
The only thing would be if Savior played so few games that he didn't get to reach his true rating, however I don't believe that for a second - people forget how much the guy used to lose even in his prime. I mean even with the relativly few games he played (compared to today) he STILL consistently failed to even qualify for the biggest individual league -.-
Savior was awsome, still is in a way, but nostalgia really is making people remember him as better than he was imo.

Flash only started to own recently. I hadn't heard much of Flash a little more than a year ago.

I'd pick JD over Savior :D

July and yellow both didn't contribute much to modern starcraft. I meant savior and oov are really the main reasons why modern starcraft is the way it is now. It isn't surprising how little zvt has changed from savior's time.

Savior and iloveoov are the greatest minds of bw of all time.

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


based on this premise, the best starcraft player is blizzard
