It's according to Liquipedia, I guess someone does not see or does not want to see: 6 WCS, 2 GSL vs the World, 2 Premier HSC, BlizzCon, DH Season finals. I just checked, they are all lined up under "achievements" in his Liquipedia profile  | ||

That's the top achievement outside of the World Cup a football player can achieve on the field. And 1 2nd place at WC Brazil. So, let's say Blizzcon/Katowice is like the World Cup. Champions League would be more like Code S. Serral has 1 WC title out of 7 he tried for IIRC(2017, 2018, 2019, 2020 IEM, 2017, 2018, 2019 Blizzcon) and 0 Code S titles. While Serral is a great player he has very low number of the top trophies this game provides. Even the patch zerg, Rogue, has more than him(3 WC titles, all of which were achieved when Serral was active, 1 Code S title) If we’re putting Code S/Katowice and Blizzcon on roughly the same calibre (and yes Serral hasn’t played Code S) 1:7 would still be a pretty standout ratio. Not that’s a fair comparison but how do the Code S regulars compare? While opinions will endlessly rage about the GOAT, in terms of high placing across almost every tournament he is a relentlessly consistent player if nothing else. Others have had good streaks too but we’re going past a couple of years of Serral showing this form. | ||

Serral is top 1/2 easy in the foreigner scene plus some sparks in the international scene | ||

What bothers me most is that every caster is putting serral instantly on the #1 podest as soon as he enters a tournament instead of casting him as a part of the top 4-5 player grp where anyone can have a good run to win the tournament. | ||

Serral not playing in the Code S gets other people in disadvantage because they play and that's lowering their ratio. Edit> My point is that he's not like Messi. Messi was playing the best possible competition regularily and he had a great part in FCB winning it 6 damn times. Serral is avoiding the biggest competition and he's not winning anything else in the same caliber rank. He's good, I've never denied that, but he's not godlike as every foreign caster makes him to be. | ||

You're very evil Trap straight up outplayed a somewhat cocky reynor. Basically a confident young thundercat didn't seem to take a disciplined korean veteran seriously and it cost him badly | ||

Check Serral's page and check how he was present at Blizzcon 2017(Rogue), IEM 2018(Rogue), IEM 2020(Rogue) and stop lying. I skipped the competition before 2017 but FFS you need to play seriously to get to the new Blizzcon and he was there. | ||

I don't think anyone on the planet would honestly place WCS events or bloody Cross-finals in the same box as Code S or Blizzcon. Also since when did online tournaments count Of course we can't! The true joke is thinking casters are paid to hype non korean players. | ||

Also since when did online tournaments count There's no way to split it into boxes and make everyone happy, so I think it's not that bad. The problem is with the people who care way too much about tournament categorization. On July 20 2020 04:13 Musicus wrote: The premiere thing on LP definitely doesn't make much sense.

If you're just looking at level of play some mostly unstreamed qualifiers for IEM or WESG are just as hard as HSC. | ||
