Well, Jangbi would be except for the lack of accomplishments. But once he pummels Luxury in the MSL finals, that will change.

Ya, I don't get it either... JangBi is one of the most consistent players overall in just about every match-up. The only thing he's missing is a title. If he takes the MSL Gold, which I'm confident he will, it'll be a very solid title, considering he was facing a terran, a protoss, and a zerg in the Ro8, Ro4 and the finals respectively. And not too shabby one's either... NaDa with some stunning play, an in-form Stork, and Luxury who's probably at the peak of his skill level atm.

the current S-Class is three players: Flash, Jaedong, and Bisu.

Stork when he's on top of shit can play S-Class starcraft, Jangbi's PvT is S-Class, etc. It's a generic term for 'the absolute best'. Kal is way too inconsistant.


yup, definately.

Stork definately looked S class when he was at the OSL finals recently, although I question his PvZ sometimes, his PvT is one of the best in the world, and his PvP and PvZ can be incredibly good on the right days

Jangbi...maybe his PvT.

FBH and Sea's TvZ is considered S class

I guess it depends on the matchup for most players

I doubt anyway would say FBH and Sea have S-class TvZ right now. Maybe awhile back.
I'm curious why we use the letter 'S'.

I think S might come from "Super" class? or maybe Special class

Mercedes named "S-Class" their best car long ago. Back in the day when Siemens produced cell phones, their best stuff was in the S series, like S65,S55 etc. So basically companies have been labeling highest class products with S. Maybe it comes from super or special, doesnt really matter

that's true, except that stork is nowhere near his top form right now. which is sad =(

Always thought it came from "Starleague" class, as in someone capable of taking a starleague. Doesn't really make sense though...

In some Japanese video games (I'm thinking particularly of Fire Emblem, but there are others), S is the highest level a skill or power can reach, after D,C,B, then A.

Its not JangBi is definitely up there with Jaedong Flash and Bisu . Beating Stork 3 - 0 is pretty impressive and the games were pretty good .

If jangbi can take that series against Lux i will be amazed. Those maps heavely z>p. Jangbi cheeses a lot/plays unorthodox for sure that might help him out. Or if Lux is in abad form. he tends to play awful sometimes.

Problem with JangBi is he can only (potentially) win SLs that Bisu isn't in LOL

I'm not sure if I'd put Jangbi on the S class list, but he's definitely the 4th best player of today. He's been hanging with the best for quite some time, goes far in leagues, has the consistency, and has no weak matchup. He might not be as dominant as Bisu, Jaedong and Flash, but he is a level above everybody else.

The name "S-Class" derives from the German word "Sonderklasse" of which "S-Class" is an abbreviation. Sonderklasse means "special class" (or rather: "In a class of its own")

The first three maps are: Harmony,Destination and Carthage,and Byzantium isn't that imba either lately,the deciding game will be on Harmony again. I'm with Lux in this one,I think Jangbi is the next big fail
