"Have we seen a single player dominate an entire race this hard since 2013 INnoVation?" is not the question you should be asking when the finals might be a mirror between the two players both dominating the race | ||

i thought he said dominate an entire race as in he's indisputably the best protoss in the world. maybe i read it wrong edit yeah he meant dominate in a matchup even then i'd still argue, herO's PvT is still really good | ||

Rain hasn't really declined, his style just isn't good at the moment. He was the best back when Protoss was weak, but safe macro toss play isn't that strong anymore, it's the cheesy/all-in protoss play that's stronger right now. (And he can't play against swarm hosts, which are being patched). Zest never was up there outside of a very short period when Protoss was the overpowered race and Terrans were nonexistant. And sOs I don't think has 'declined,' he just is his own unique beast that doesn't make sense and isn't understandable. The best tosses used to be Rain, Parting, and Creator. Creator is the one who has really declined. Rain and Parting have been good for a while and will continue to be; they've shown that they'll continue to be the best even when their race is weak. Zest hasn't shown much when his race isn't patched to be the strongest. Right now, I would say that herO and Parting are the best two, agreed. In this series, though, I think MMA just played poorly more than Parting played well, but regardless, Parting won the series. He earned it. | ||

Also, is Parting the greatest player to not have a GSL trophy? I mean, there are some "newer" people (mostly ex-BW players) who kinda stick out and do not have a GSL trophy yet, but Parting has been around since forever, he has always been at least good and occasionally great, but lacks the shiny thing on his shelf. Is there anyone else like that? | ||

ForGG is 56% against Korean Terrans in the last year (maybe there's a smaller timeframe in which he was more dominant? I haven't followed his career.) PartinG is at 83% against Korean Terrans. | ||

Finally I catch you post this so I can show you that you're wrong and that you have to put more effort into your trolling. This is the last balance change done to this game. After June 5th of 2014, Zest had the following placements: top 8 Code S season 2, top 4 Code S season 3, top 4 Hot6 Cup, 2nd at IEM Toronto, 1st at KeSPA Cup. This is a month-long period of solid placements even after all balance updates were done. | ||

Is there anyone else like that? TaeJa never had a GSL trophy either and he was pretty clearly the best player at multiple points. Also, Maru. | ||
