The rest were lol brackets... typical nada style -_-;;. yes.. some pro gamers are simply C- guys.. NaDa had it easy you are right.. retard as if the top 20 pro gamers are so much different in terms of skill oh my god.. some people have no fucking clue NaDa might be very successful and savior might own it up right now, but all these guys are not that different skillwise.. i hate it if you talk about easy bracket IN PRO GAMING especially OSL and MSL there are NO easy opponents. Maybe easier opponents, but thats just by a little.. I still find it disturbing to see Midas abvoe NaDa.. Seriously.. Midas didnt do good lately. NaDa got 2nd in OSL, wtf do u want him to do ?

Just because your style fits well vs him (And midas still lost okay? He still lost) Doesn't mean you're better than everyone else. This is all based on such a tiny sample size and one idiot's opinion which changes like the wind. And you can't really be qualified for it. I don't think there's a reason for this to begin withAmazingly enough, there's really nothing biased here. Midas deserves his spot because he's shown he can hang with Savior much more than NaDa could, and is clearly a better TvZer. That's what this is all about - skill, not just results. | ||

This is all based on such a tiny sample size and one idiot's opinion which changes like the wind. And you can't really be qualified for it. I don't think there's a reason for this to begin with At the point at which we have one reference standard, I think it's safe to say that your performance against Savior is a good benchmark for your abilities overall - especially when it's the same matchup. Midas doesn't beat Savior any differently than NaDa or IriS or Hwasin tried to beat him. He didn't come up with some new way of beating Savior like Much did - it wasn't a matter of build orders, but mechanics. He did what they all tried and failed to do. He just played flat-out better against an all-around player, and I think he deserves mad props for that. Let's put it this way - if Savior had beaten everyone else 3-0 and throughly humiliated them - wouldn't you then give more credit to Midas for being the only person that went 2-2 with Savior? If you're willing to do that, why is it so outrageous to put Midas just ahead of someone that Savior really did humiliate? Moreover, it's hard to say that Midas wasn't overall better than NaDa when he lost to Savior. Midas went 3-0 in group play and pounded on everyone, whereas NaDa barely made it out of his group and won 2-1's and 3-2's into a final where he was embarrassed by Savior. Not his fault he's not allowed to play anything but OSL. | ||

Not his fault he's not allowed to play anything but OSL. Obviously u didn't watch NADA's game Wild Card game was just amazing (both were coming from behind win) and 3rd game against Seaup (which he won with only GOALIATH vs tank+Battlecrusier), all the games with Yarnc was amazing. At least watch someone's game before you criticize it Plus game against Savior doesn't mean EVERYTHING. Some players are weak to some particular players while they can be strong against other players. If you think match against Savior is everything, doesn't dat put BISU over SAVIOR????? shit doesn't make sense. This is why i hate some SAvior fans. They rate players on how well they play against Savior | ||

there are a lot of paradoxes on this list. The 3,4,5 spots are pretty much based on how well they did vs Savior, but at the same time Savior is still ahead of Bisu. This is a Paradox and people do not like contradictions. In a lot of peoples minds a contradiction might as well be a bias. I agree with this 2nd point, that you cant base some ones TvZ on Saviors Zerg style. Everyone has a style that they play better against, and worst against, and older players it seems certainly arent up to the task of macro zergs until they adapt. Boxer, Oov, nada, etc were used to the more aggressive zergs/low money zergs, until chojja and such came (chojja still isnt really as macro as savior) They are saying its "just one persons opinion." true, but then again he makes it so you have something to argue with, compare with, so dont be such dicks about it. Its only a small part of the front page and its not forcing you to click on it. | ||
