I'd argue herO at the end of last year/start of this year pretty much fits the bill, his win record across all matchups were insane.

He's always been close, but only closed it out once.

Then again, from March to end of August in 2013, he got top 4 or better in every single Premier tournament that he entered. Only Mvp and Life have had comparable levels of domination.

And he's the only player to have won the teamleague triple crown (PL, GSTL, and ATC).

Prime won it with GSTL, IPL and KSL in 2012, literally won every tournament they entered for about half the year

2012 Prime was sick. But you cant deny Innovation rekt teamleagues really hard
To all the haters: you deserve to witness many, many more Serral victories, worthy of the godlike player he is.

Many a MKP fan did Mvp make sad back in the days. Before he was exposed as a human he wasn't particularly charismatic or had a storyline, was just another good Korean Terran who would overwhelm anyone with mechanics and strategy.

The greatest image change of all time. He went from this evil Terran emotionless overlord into this scrappy underdog retired champ who used intelligence, cunning and willpower to win.

Innovation was pretty clearly god tier. Tournament wins are great but they're not as important as people make them out to be. Form is a much better indicator and he was dominant in all matchups, across team and individual leagues. Ridiculous team-league performance for both AxAcer and Acer in ATC. Bunch of RO4 finishes in top-tier tournaments, not to mention his ridiculous performance in Proleague with 3 all-kills.

Nah its Zest and Dear.

They both did what Innovation couldn't and won two back to back Korean championships. (Or in Dear's case WCS season 3 finals)

Dear and Zest weren't tearing apart Proleague from recollection Inno also seemed to sweep more opponents iirc

Mvp is a god of course but I always felt with him it was a quiet confidence in him winning, not a 'he's going to tear shit up' like I got with Inno

Apparently he's opening up and showing his personality though so I'll have to avoid things exposing that. I prefer him as the emotionless Starcraft machine

Innovation is the best Teamleague player right now though. He has yet to lose a team league despite playing for three different teams.

Life was pretty dominant for a certain stretch and late WoL/early HotS. When Inno beat him in that group of death pretty handily he took over as most dominant. I thought he was clearly the topl player at the time even with the loss to Soulkey. The guy was just so damn scary.

I said it with passion guys so that's ok ye?

Hoping to see at least one technical weird build from TY tomorrow and hopefully an Innovation in prime form. Outside of that pretty cool matchups, god an actual racial mix in a Ro16 how refreshing

Especially so soon after spewing a bunch of posts about how protoss can't win late game against Terran. Maybe he'll go for the trifecta and say Terran can't beat zerg


Sorry I can't hear you from atop my Axiom fanatic horse

How mature, lucky you're super important, not just one of us worthless LR plebs or you wouldn't be here anymore


Turns out of you contribute to the scene rather than run around calling people whores and bitches in an LR thread, you get some perks.

Try it sometime.

Wow look at that, I call people whores and bitches now. I'm glad you make good use of your "perks" which you appear to think are simply entitlements to be an ass


Own up to your shit.
