Hmm. I a huge supporter of the elephant in the room concepts, but I do believe this thread is a little out of place, if not premature.
Hopefully this gives the opposers some proof, but lets wait until next season before he is called the best player.

In this season Parting has had a harder path to Code S with TOP, Clide, and Killer in my opinion, but like I said it doesn't really matter because he hasn't faced anyone who has tested his merit. He hasn't faced the strong representatives of Code S. Parting and Brown also made a pretty clean run through Code A, and Brown showed incredible form but no one talks about him because he wasn't relevant in BW.
All I'm saying is, hold off until the next Code S season before you make threads like this. People jump the gun so hard when it comes to new players.

I appreciate the write up and his 3 game run is undeniable. Also the recognition of a good Brood War coming from a face whose never played the game or followed it earns my respect.

However some of the statements in this thread are just absurd. It is ANYTHING but easy to suggest that ForGG has the best Micro Starcraft 2 has ever seen, and is insulting to players who've accomplished much more than himself in terms of accomplishments, rewards, and respect.

You're analysis of the games are sub par at best. This isn't a personal attack it is more of me pointing out blasphemy. Again with fin dispalying the best Marine Marauder micro Starcraft 2 has ever seen. In game one vs Sage he proxy 2 gated all in. His micro was fantastic that's is irrefutable. However if you noticed some of the major factors in the game like the 3 hit point SCV finishing the bunker that was bar none, the game ending event. Mind you this is around 5 and a half minutes into the game meaning he is capable of having a max of 10 marines. 10 marine with scv buffer vs a teaspoon of zealots although good micro is nothing that Brood War or Star 2 have yet to witness. Game 2 he 4 rax starport off of 2 base and then threw down another 4 rax before even taking a third. Due to Sage not scouting he was obviously going to be behind in army count. If Sage had been more informed, prepared properly it would have gone 3 games. His storm micro was almost non existent.

As far as 13 minute Starcraft 2 law defying mech attack, well its anything but that. But he outplayed polt in game 1 with great banshee micro simultaneous non stop macro.

Games against July were sub par. Two words that I believe fit JulyZergs play as of recent. The unorthodox strategy in game one was keeping his opponent off balance by forcing him to make units while hard countering him, AFTER he already had done significant damage. Game 2 he saved the game by raising a supply depot. There's nothing amazing about that. He has a great sense of the game and his mechanics are very good.

Just don't jump the gun, he hasn't accomplished anything significant yet, and believe me I'm rooting for him. Although I'm impressed, I know that every one of his skills are matched, nullified, and surpassed by top tier players.

Overall, I like the passion included in your write up, but don't let emotion take priority over your intellect when it comes to a thread.
