they are saying it happens far less often, which makes it more meaningful

Jaedong's overall winrate in BW is 68.5%, MVPs in SC2 is 64.66%.


If Jaedong played in the BW equivalent of HSC, his winrate would be 100%


I'm intrigued as to how you would translate HSC into a BW equivalent.


Did foreigner ever take a game off korean in WSG ? I actually don't know if it happened but I guess it didn't


There would be no BW equivalent. The scenes are too different to make a meaningful comparison to a hypothetical BW HSC.


I'd say WCG is pretty close, actually.


Mondragon AND PJ beat the Savior

http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft/WCG_2007

And White-ra beat Stork it seems :o.


Neat but not as impressive as beating Savior.

This was the 2007 Savior, the last phase of his bonjwa-ness. Losing to two foreigners is ... a huge upset.

Wasn't that the time Stork threw a game so he wouldn't have to play against a Korean in the quarterfinals?

This group stage format needs to die... Just use GSL format please. A tournament should never have games that are meaningless for one player.

This is a bit crazy to try to cast while someone can hear. Surely he knows words such as void ray, colossi, high templar and storm? :/

Maybe people need to start accepting that Mvp is not the best player in the world anymore.

Just like they accepted before GSL October. Or before last GSL.


Win one GSL and suddenly you're the best player in the world. Good logic. I remember when the thread monsters were slobbering all over Jjakji because of one fantastic run. Where did his other championships go?

No, win 4 GSLs and you're the best player. That's the point, just because he doesn't win every single tournament he enters doesn't mean he's suddenly not the best player anymore.


He isn't the best player anykmore because he cannot consistently beat everybody else, which is what the best player does. Honestly it's embarrassing when people just call x or y the best player, do they understand how utterly dominant you must be to be considered for the title? Mvp doesn't possess that dominance anymore.

I don't think this holds. At any one time, someone must be best (by definition), even if we can't clearly tell who. However, it is not given that at any one time someone must necessarily dominate everyone else. Whatever happened to the first-among-equals situation?


That's a false assumption. "Being the best" is a judgment call created by people based on outside evidence, not some intuitive ranking system that naturally exists. If there is no sustainable argument for any single individual then nobody occupies that position. Right now anyone can trash anyone in the KR scene and they are doing it on a regular basis.

But there is an objective ranking system. Let's say a hypothetical N-round robin involving every player played under identical and simultaneous conditions. Of course this is not realisable, but that's not a problem. I put it to you that as N goes to infinity, the winner of such a hypothetical tournament will be stable, e.g. P(this player winning) will approach 1 as N grows.

I used to think buffing Fungal was a good way to make the Zerg midgame more solid back in 2011. In retrospect, I should've predicted it would result in retarded crap like this.


i, for one, preferred when fungal was more of a long ensnare for stalling, but there's no other way to be even remotely cost efficient with your units as zerg if you don't have somewhat of a DPSing fungal. with the way pathing and clumping works, zergs would have to rely solely on banes which can be countered/absorbed a lot easier.


What if it just reduced movement speed by a lot though, instead of freezing? I just find fungal so boring to watch in game, because I know that no matter how skilled at micro the opponent is there's nothing he can do once his units get hit. Spreading pre-emtively is cool I guess, but not nearly as interesting as storm dodging, baneling splitting, lifting units over forcefields, flanking so marauders can't abuse concussive, etc.

As long as it still prevents blink.
