Oh whoops, misread. Yea GSL January was not great for zergs. Too many terrible maps (even though the MU was pretty balanced)... jungle basin, close positions metal, shakuras with the back destructible rocks... it was a death trap for zerg lol. Zergs could win at the time but only if they got decent maps. | ||

Best foreigner yes. At no point was jinro ever considered the best terran (before the mvp era mkp was the best terran). Mvp had the most dominating run in january out of all champions, that's why his elo peak is the highest in sc2. Back in season 3, the only star mc beat was mkp. Jinro rose to his peak shortly after in gsl january, where he was overshadowed by mvp.. | ||

"DongRaeGu is a top zerg" wouldn't mean that he is the best but it certainly at the top. | ||

Season 3, where he made his first top 4, he was dwarfed by a previous top 2 and then top 8 mkp. GSL january, where jinro made his 2nd top 4, he was dwarfed by mkp in ro4 and overshadowed by eventual winner mvp. Idk how you can say jinro was ever the top terran in the world. From gsl open season 2 to gsl jan, mkp was the best terran in the world. From gsl jan to april-may, mvp was the undisputed best terran in the world. Mvp's reign is a little shaky as of now but we'll see how that turns out. You can argue that jinro was the best foreigner after 2 top 4s and an mlg win and easily the top foreign terran, but even now thorzain is the better pick for that spot. | ||

FD would have lost to oGsTOP on kulas, knocking him out in the Ro8 if they played after the ultra was fixed  Go youtube it if you like, and play the scenario in a unit tester.Unless you think better upgraded thors lose to ultras nowadays ;p | ||
