That would be the most absurd thing ever. The guy that most people did not even expect to make it out of Code A this season ends up being the champion.


why not, Innovation started his career as a underrated ladder#1 too


Innovation was basically the ace for STX Soul and a rising star when BW ended so I'm not sure what you are talking about lol.


BW results or career don't matter a lot in SC2...
Ask Stork, Bisu or Flash lol


You realize Stork and Bisu and even Flash are old veterans whose primes were PAST in BW right? Stork fell out sharply by 2012, Bisu was slightly slower, Flash was falling off the best player chart at the end too. What dominates now are the up and comers (soulkey, dear, bogus, zest, etc). Just compare Zero with Soulkey, Zero was the Ace and slowly falling, Soulkey was the new and comer. Same with STX and Dear + Bogus. Same with SKT with Rain, etc.


Ok, you are right.
I forgot Jangbi and Fantasy are the big guns in SC2


Jangbi is same time period as Stork, and he RETIRED after getting a Code S spot. Both of them spent much more time on BW than the rest of the group because they were in the last BW OSL.


Well... I said BW doesn't matter for SC2, I gave you examples. You told me those examples are wrong because they were of the PAST. Then I give you examples of the best BW players at the end of BW and now the problem is they were too RECENT?

I am sorry, so maybe I am right and BW results dont matter in SC2?


Good job zero reading comprehension. I'm saying their careers translated to SC2. BW players who were up and comers generally did really well going into SC2, BW players who were already veterans and naturally were falling off didn't do so well or retired. Esports players have life spans, that's just the way of it. Boxer / July retired even earlier.


You are full of contradictions thats what you are...

Zest wasn't an up and comer. Neither was herO. Soulkey, Rain were as old of players as hydra.
Sora left, Killer left.
As many veterans as up and comers left SC2.

BW != SC2


It's not a perfect algorithm but obviously players who were upcomers yet to reach their full potential either due to lack of a solid environment or age or experience would eventually over take the veterans who are getting older and mechanically less competitive. How is this difficult to understand. There are exceptions in some specific cases like Jaedong but they are few and far between.

anychance for vods without subscribing? sorry if it sounds dumb or if it was asked like a million times.....

Nah, sadly you can watch only first game of each series on their Youtube channel. But still, Maru vs. Dear and Maru vs. Zest, both first games were great so you should definitely watch them.

The match I was hoping for in the finals is in the ro8. :X



It's an easy pass to the Ro4 though


Fair enough, but then he'll have to face a Protoss that's actually good in the ro4.

LifevP....


soO, Bbyong, Squirtle are the three players we can hope for him to face when he gets past Maru, whereas the other players will prove tougher opponents. At least San isn't in GSL.
