Coming out of a slump takes a lot of time and practice. Let's talk again in 6 months. And let's also see if Bisu's even in the power rank by then.

I simply compare Savior to the likes of Nada, Boxer, and Oov. In comparison to domination, each of those players had their shine. In terms of accomplishment, Savior doesn't even suffice of what Boxer, Nada, and Oov did. It's funny how everyone bashed Bisu saying he's ignorant, and yet it was Savior who said "I will destroy everyone in 2009", so much for everyone, getting pwned by Great yesterday in Winners league. Thank you come again Oh, so you're actually saying he's a bad player because he lost a ZvZ, the most unpredictable match-up in all of starcraft, where basically anyone can beat anyone once in a while? And even to a decent ZvZ player? What is it with you? Btw. you wouldn't remember Bisu's last game against Guemchi, would you? I thought as much. | ||

I only mentioned that Savior got steam rolled by Bisu, I never said Bisu also deserve to be up there... | ||

Everyone, and I mean every single person finds the other guy that has their number. This happens without fail. It sounds to me like if someone doesn't play so well now it detracts from what their former accomplishments are. Boxer fell to Nada, Nada fell to IloveOoV, Iloveoov fell to July, July pretty much fell to Nada again, Nada was finally beaten by Savior, Savior was beaten by Bisu. I don't see Iloveoov around dominating, I don't see boxer around dominating and I don't see Nada in the same shape. This is irrelevant, they were at some point in time absolute monsters and THAT is what matters. Savior was a monster. Yes he got rolled by Bisu the same way Iloveoov got rolled by July. No one begrudges anyone of this besides those weird people who think Savior was actually overrated. Do keep in mind that Savior broke his winning streak from back in 2006-2007. Even the best of progamers LOSE, sometimes 2-3 times in a row! Starcraft is a tough sport to streak in. | ||

However, I can't stand douchebags that keeps saying bs crap like Bisu is arrogant, Bisu is ignorant. Savior was the one who said he would destroy everyone in 2009, that's a pretty bold statement, and yet he's loosing to random A-Class players? Savior fanboys acted like he's been dominating Starcraft for 1000 years or some shit. Point is, Savior was pwning, got pwned, sanked, and now he has to prove himself. Bisu already proved that he can be a champion once again, but can Savior do the same? | ||

Bisu coming back from a long time of mediocre play to A/S-Class play again and Savior coming back from a real slump after over a year of complete and utter dominance is a whole different story. What Bisu did prove is that he can win starleagues. But as I said earlier, he has never had a longer period of dominance, yet. That's why you can't compare him to the other guys in this poll. He has yet to prove that he can dominante the scene for like ~1year +/- Even though Flash and Jaedong might have less titles than Bisu, they dominate on a different level over a very long time against all three races. That's what makes them special. Heck, Flash is coming close to a 70% career win % | ||

Bisu is arrogant. This is something I really liked about him actually, I was fully behind the "Bisu is a badass" wagon for the longest time. Yea I liked Savior but the new Sair/DT multitask way to crush zerg was amazing. The SC scene needs more personalities like Savior/Bisu/FBH that are arrogant because they KNOW they are good and can back up what they say by steamrolling everyone. FBH.. used to be able to steamroll anyway  The only issue a majority of people have with Bisu right now is the whole Bonjwa talk that gets annoying after the 5000th time of hearing it and that one interview where he became probably the first ever upper class player to actually complain about a map. He actually said "Yea I lost because of the maps..." ... He needs to redeem himself after that farce of a comment. Other than that Bisu is ok in my book and I like the guy. The Savior fanboyism is overboard too but the Bisu-Savior brigades are... really loud just gotta get used to that one | ||

You can't generalize that into "random A-class players". That's an overstatement. And Savior isn't? Boldly claiming he'll destroy everyone in 2009, in my book, that's call being over your head and overestimating yourself. | ||

Boxer's macro was bad, but amazing micro and Oov is vice versa. oov's micro was not by any means "bad", it was just overshadowed by his brute force macro. oov basically fought every fight (in TvZ specially, and TvP to a degree) with way more units than his opponent. He did a lot of 1a2a3a just cause he could. But if you look for old vods you will see excellent marine micro, splits, and great multitasking. Boxer had bad macro in a time where bad macro was common just cause no one saw the advantage you could get from it with solid builds. | ||

I guess the Bisu votes have a lot to do with people not being here a while back. iloveoov was IMBA. I remember the amount of crying TL had about people bitching that iloveoov made things boring because no one else would win lol. | ||
