Love this guy, hope he wins man, as long as he's not emotionless when he takes the last game. Though I don't think that'd be the case since he couldn't retain his grin from winning his ro16 group

Flash could more than cope with it, he was announcing his winning streaks ahead of time in BW. XD

Nice interviews though.

And there were times when people actually bought his humbleness, he toyed with people in interviews, also he used interviews to mindfuck his competetitors in OSL/MSL.

Gotta take everything MajOr says with a grain of salt.. It's usually just bogus anyway.

Well I guess its a good thing he 2-0'd life and I think flash during Ro16. I'm pretty sure sOs can take him down considering sOs 2-0d Innovation at the AIMA

He won 2-1, not 2-0 and he relies pretty much on gimmic play, i doubt he can take out Innovation in a bo5 or bo7.

TBH, MVP, MKP, MMA, Flash etc. They wont have anything on this guy. He is ahead of his time, he will be what Boxer, Flash and Jaedong together is for BW, for Starcraft II.

I'll wait calling him the best until he has won a major title. Until then he is just a favorite to win. You never know what happens once he gets into a Ro8 against someone who have had a week to prepare, thats where true champions shine through! There have been many great players who fell when everyone expected him to win. Best example is Squirtle vs Mvp. I hope Innovation doesnt pull a squirtle and destroys everyone throughout the entire tournament and then gets crushed by someone more experienced in a GSL final settings.

Imagine Innovation losing 3-4 against Parting in the final of this season, what a story that would be

Agreed. Innovation is a very consistent player. sOs is like, a master in Best of 1's and 3's because he will take you offguard. Though, we'll have to see if either actually get to the finals (they are on opposite sides of the bracket). If I had to guess as to what the finals would be, I'd guess Soulkey or Parting versus Innovation.

Winning does not necessarily make you the best!! As sad as it may be! Sniper was never the best player in the world. While I think a preparation format helps to create great helps, I also think that it results in players relying on "sniping" builds.


And calling sOs the best player in the world is a bit silly. That Martial-whatever tournament was pure Bo3, anyway! He's really reliant on DT builds, too.

He is a much stronger player than Life.

sOs and soulkey have pretty good chances vs Innovation, roro can win too. A lot of people ignore the Asian Indoor + Martial Arts tournament that happened a couple weeks ago, but sOs beat roro, effort, innovation, creator, and life to win it. sOs is probably the world's strongest player atm.


Really don't know why Life gets so much hype when this is now the 3rd straight GSL season he was knocked out by Kespa players. Everyone knew, even Flash said it, that if Innovation had played Life in the MLG finals he would have won.

Not sure if I agree. Innovation has yet to achieve 10% of what Mvp did. I won't call any player the best in the world until they prove themself such as Mvp,Nestea,Life. Innovation is just one of many top end player who is candidate for the best right now.

The guy made Life look like some random GM zerg

People forget that Innovation (Bogus) was one of the top terrans at the end of BW along with Flash, Fantasy and Baby. And even his TvZ in BW was amazing. He definitely has the potential to be one of the greatest
