I really wish GOM would allow people like Savior to compete in the GSL. I mean SC2 is a different game than BW. Everyone deserves a second chance, and Savior was a brilliant player. Sure he made a terrible mistake and it should not go unpunished, but I think being banned from BW was punishment enough.

I'd really like to see what Savior can do with SC2.

I still remember those games he played vs iris in the osl semies...those were such beautiful games.

His hive tech was just so imba though..the terran just might as well have gged when he got there...nada had no chance against him.

Such beautiful muta/ling micro..So sad that such an awesome player could stoop so low when he literally had everything a progamer could want...he even had a dog..:[

Awesome article.

I remember downloading every sAviOr ZvT win during his peak. My favourite move from him was that double mind trick stop lurkers, where he only used stop lurkers below the ramp and placed two lurkers above the ramp. His opponent sent a scouting marine and saw two lurkers above the ramp and assumed it was safe and went into the hold lurkers below the ramp. It was vs an unknown player, cant remember who.

Also agree T>>>>>>>>>Z

This may be a noob question, but are there any 480p vods of great Savior games? Most of the vods on Youtube are of low quality.

My sentiments exactly. Savior was the first big SC star (after Boxer of course) that I followed and tried to catch every replay/VOD.

I hope you're not making the claim that his ZvT was better than top Zergs now in absolute terms. In relative terms it's true of course.

Otherwise, great article.

Yea it's relative. Jaedong has the best ZvT of all-time in absolute terms, but sAviOr had the best ZvT dominance during his era.

Savior’s play was always about getting the cutting edge. In StarCraft, with life and with money.
I personally understand that winners will do anything to win, even cheating. That’s the nature of a true winner

Savior might be Maestro, a Legend. But Jaedong is the Tyrann, the Legend killer.

If Savior is the Zerg scout Jaedong is the Zerg commander.

This is by far the most thoroughly written piece i have ever read on TL and even though my knowledge of SC:BW is far too limited to have anything valid to say about a comparison between Savior and other bonjwas however i feel that just by reading this article i have a much deeper understanding of BW. Thanks for the great writeup!!

EG should recruit Savior to play in the NASL and IPL. He didn't break any laws in the US. That would be a killer PR move for both leagues and for the EG team, who could really hype up the "evil" in "Evil Geniuses."

Jaedong is nothing but a brute compared to sAviOr. sAviOr's play was the epitome of finesse, while Jaedong breaks his enemies with a crowbar.

If anything, sAviOr is the commander and Jaedong is a wild Ultralisk.
