I have never seen someone dominate other top players in such a convincing fashion with no holes, no weakness. If sc2 can stay esports for a few more years, I wouldnt be surprised if Serral surpasses Flashs level of dominance in broodwar....

If he's so good where are his Code S titles? oO And as much as I don't like Flash his level of dominance is totally something different. Serral is nowhere near this. And Flash wasn't avoiding the Korean competition in WCS IIRC.


Serral can't win Code S if he never plays it; he might do it one day, deal with it for now.

Flash in Sc2 wasn't but a pale shade of what he is in BW; you can't compare him to Serral, only korean players are relevant in Brood War and they all play the same tournaments in the same scene.

Also, according to Letmelose Nada is the best player in BW's history and there is a strong argument for that.
Flash might be the best RTS player of all times but it's highly debatable, look at Moon's accomplishments in Warcraft III.

Obviously he was comparing him to Flash in BW and Serral is nowhere near this kind of dominance. Accept it.


I think he could be if he was playing Code S. But the way SC2 works he has 0 interest to play something else than the farmer league and global events.


And it's nice because Blizzard should region lock the GSL.

Actually, if we isolate their best years the comparison can be made looking at datas only, Serral is kind of Flash-y; Flash had a longer career and more years of successes. He came back to dominate just as much after seven years, his nickname is well earned.

You can't really compare them because foreigner scene actually has a relevance in Sc2; its real dimension is debatable and the source of all the discussion regarding Serral's greatness. Moreover, Serral utterly dominated one year only; we'll be able to speak of that a couple of year.

I think he could be if he was playing Code S. But the way SC2 works he has 0 interest to play something else than the farmer league and global events.

Thus the case is closed, isn't it?


Comparing different games is stupid to begin with, even in the same genre (who's the best moba player, Faker or Dendi xD) and SC2 & BW only share the same name. They're very very different RTS that tests the RTS skills in a different manner so it's totally pointless to compare BW achievement to SC2 achievement. Except to have utter respect for people who were able to win titles in both.

However Serral will be closer and closer to the title of best SC2 player in the history if he keeps up this level of play. I don't remember anyone feeling as dominant as he is.
Zest fanboy.

They tried and all the foreigners chose the ezpz competition thus they chickened out. Hail to the exceptions. Or was she the only one, not sure now

Who has had the best splits in sc2? I don't think it's Maru, and it's definitely not Byun.
Ganzi beat me without stim. Ostojiy beat me with a nydus. Siphonn beat me with probes. Revival beat my sentry-immortal all-in.

Considering how little money you make outside of prizepool in sc2 chosing GSL was a brave but not very intelligent choice for most foreigners.
