I can accept this. But if this is about monthly performance,then,well,Best didn't show any kind of weakness whatsoever. Perhaps he showed in the pasy. But here we are again. This is a monthly PR. No matter,I'm obviously based on bias,but I hope Best wins,and there will be no arguments,that Best is the better player. K..but neither did Stork? We all get that you love BeSt, what's your point? | ||

We all get that you love BeSt, what's your point? it wasn't about Stork being weak against T by any means(or weaker than Best's), my only point is (and not only my) that Stork isnt superior PvT right now. It's hard to comapre the two, cuz Best is relying on his groundforce-control backed up with excellent arbiter play in the late game, and of course godly macro. Stork on the other hand overcame most of his opponents in early-mid game, taking more risk, like going for proxy-robo, dt rush or 2 base carrier. Generally relying more on the air, shuttle-micro, Carriers and the element of surprise. His streak is great, and i woundn't dare to say that it's undeserved, but non of his opponents was very good, at least against toss, maybe Forgg and Sea, but Sea is doing very bad, and Forgg's recent TvP is inferior to his other MUs. Best's opponent werent S class either, i felt Midas was very strong in TvP, yet he failed, and FBH, well his TvP is excellent this month, but he lost to Best. All in all, i think their PvT is even, or the difference is negligible. I can be convinced, give me some arguments, like Stork's play against X on the map X which favors T over P was unquestionable, while Best's play against X on a P friendly map wasnt untouchable, he barely won. Or something like that. Not "look at the TLPD". EDIT: I know I'm bad, i just found this, ignore it, it's not an argument it just made me smile, it's not true, so dont post if you only want to point on this (I dont hate stork, I never hated any good toss player): "My problem with Stork is that his latest games have absolutely nothing that would set him apart from every other Protoss out there. His series in the GSI final against Flash was solid, but every other game Stork has played recently is either a proxy something or a carrier rush" Fakesteve | ||

Unless... Free beats Jaedong, Best beats Stork, and Stork beats ForGG. Then the top 3 are going to be an absolute bitch to sort out. PL performance is going to be important than ever before in such case. | ||

He will take a huge 2-0 lead against fantasy, a huge game 3 lead, then collapse and lose the rest of the games. He-will-never-win-anything. Just like yellow. If Best slumps and looses his winning streak vs tosses against Stork, there is no doubt in my mind, that Stork will CRUSH Fantasy 3-0. If Best wins however, Fantasy will win vs Best. Best on the other hand, has equal pvt to stork, and no such "im doomed to 2nd place" mentality. He will not choke. | ||

2-3 Bisu 1-3 Jaedong 0-3 Flash. Math says he can't make the finals since he can't go -1-3. | ||

At least Stork has a lot of finals experience. Not that it will matter. Stork will rape the shit out of BeSt  | ||

it's like a friggin relentless sea of toss where waves of lots, goons, reavers, ht, dt, etc come crashing down on u till u break... FBH's new game tactic is very interesting and his games not his ceremonies r actually providing some entertainment. He finally has something to bak his ceremonies with ^^ ugh... the terrans need to reel it in... there r so many of them yet they r in the bottom halves | ||
