I was never really a fan of life, but seeing him drop from the best Zerg in the world to a "eh, hes ok" Zerg in just a few months makes me want to see him win something.

Three of which he has crazy good records against?

In HotS? Except for bomber i do not think he has stompingly winning record against any of 'em.

Life is at least 4-2 against Bomber and against Flash in HotS; don't know about Taeja.


+ an additional 2-1 in the Asian Indoor Tournament against Flash

With 1 macro game loss and 2 bane busts win against him.^_^

And the point is..?

Pretty sure he didn't meet TaeJa in HotS. :o The funny thing is, I think TaeJa has the winning record for all of WoL (Maybe like 12-8), since he kept beating Life when TaeJa was being an online bonjwa - before Life began X-0ing TaeJa near the end. :p

He's not very far off his "old form" at the moment.

It was fun watching this kid when he was winning everything. I think he was a (T)Flash in the pan tho.

I don't know if it will be now or next month or only next year, but Life will have a resurgence. He's truely gifted - unlike other hyped players, which just run on a streak, he is one of the few who has the talent to be an all time great.

Didn't Flash do somewhat badly for a while after his initial success?

Life lost to Sjow in the last dreamhack. He lost to Snute in some tournament which name escapes me. This preview lists Grubby, Nerchio, Daishy, Snute as legit treats to Life's run.

Can you remember at least a single foreigner who ever was a legit treat to Flash in Broodwar? Thought so. Don't go around comparing mortals to God so lightly.

tbh... he really isn't...
Beside his ZvZ, which is just outright terrible right now. I'd say he's capable of beating ANYONE in ANY tournament - beside the Zerg.

Foreigner in BW? Not saying you are wrong but besides few odds like PJ beating Savior and Draco beating Midas and such this comparison has no basis even for an average a-teamers which generally owned foreigners by default.

Replace foreigner with B-teamer/low a-teamer.
My wrist really started to flare up. My colossi number started to pile up and with the last of my concentration I prepared for a win.

And losing to anyone in ANY tournament. I hope Life proves me wrong, because having a Prime terran represent youngsters in GSL is bad.

Life is probably not the best Zerg in the world, but can obviously compete for that position still. He's whole starcraft career lies ahead of him if he chooses to stick to it.

Nah, even if he wins Dreamhack, they'll still overlook him entirely as always.

Well, of course. But he looked quite decent lately as long as there were no Zerg in his way. He lost to players like eMotion or Byun, but you can't always win :-P
The vast majority and especially the most painful of his losses lately have been in ZvZ (Sniper, soO, Soulkey, hyvaa, Kangho), or to put it this way: If his ZvZ would be on a par with his other matchups... well... he'd be in Code S and in a pretty good shape in every tournament he enters :-P
