if i had to make a comparison for progamers and smash players based on style...

ken is boxer
pewpewu is fantasy
ppmd is stork
mango is jaedong
m2k is nada
armada is bisu

flash doesn't exist yet

I don't really see this at all. Except maybe the first and last ones. I'll try hard to think about it and to make my own list.

Lots of techskill and aggression, poor choices. So mediocre efficiency. Probably Kwanro sounds about right.

I'd also have Mango as Boxer and M2K as Flash.

westballz is classic jaehoon. potential for greatness but greater potential for throws.

Ken is perfect as Boxer, Mango is not. Mango is definitely a Jaedong-style player. Also, M2K is nowhere near Flash-level dominance anymore, not since the rise of Mango/HBox/Armada/PPMD.

If anyone is Flash, it's PP. He's looked unbeatable at his last few tournaments. His Falco is the best in the world, and his Marth is pretty fucking close.

To weigh in on the progamer comparison discussion:

I'm seeing two main factors in progamer comparison. One is the player's skill, including achievements, influence on the scene, domination over other players, place in the game's lifespan, playstyle, and innovations. Second is the player's personality, including their consistency, nerves, flair, and persona. Some comparisons are stronger on one front than the other.

That said I really like Ken as Boxer and KDJ as July.
