My claim was that Creator is better than any ST player at this period. I backed it up with the fact he won a tournament stacked with ST players, beating ST's best player 5-1 in 2 matches en being a top 3 player in PL, while not 1 ST player has a positive winrate in this league (OK they just joined). I think this backs up my statement quite well | ||

Unless we're talking strictly PvZ/ZvP, in which case it might not be as clear-cut. Creator is NOT better than Life, he just isn't and that's a fact. Major beat TaeJa 2-0 in WCS America but no one is claiming MajOr is better than TaeJa are they? The argument that he beat him in 1 tournament that one time is so flawed it's not even funny. Creator playing well in PvP (pretty much his only good matchup, that he's luckily drawn almost every game this round) where he can just play super defensively while his opponent gets impatient and suicides their army doesn't necessarily make him a "great" player all of a sudden. And doing hidden all-ins on a 4 player map isn't really the most impressive thing in the world either. Creator has a long way to go to prove that he has turned into a great player before he will be taken seriously, Life has done it for a much longer time and is proving it in Individual leagues/tournaments where it matters. | ||

Yes, cause Creator has never ended far in a major offline tournament. Let stand win one... And Creator not being better than Life cause it's a fact. Please, I gave you enough reasons, and it's not only the online cup | ||

Creator's results last year: Ro32 2013 GSL Season 1 Ro32 MLG Winter Championship Ro32 2013 WCS KR Season 1 Life's results last year: 1st Iron Squid Chapter 2 1st MLG Winter Championship Ro16 2013 GSL Season 1 Ro16 2013 WCS KR Season 1 Ro32 2013 WCS KR Season 2 Ro4 Dreamhack Bucharest 1st IEM New York 2nd Dreamhack Winter Ro4 ASUS NorthCon Ro8 ASUS Winter Honestly, the only metric that you could use to call Creator a superior player is their head-to-head record. Which, if it were the other way around, I'm sure you'd agree doesn't say very much. Creator has looked pretty good in Proleague, but saying he's better than Life is about as true as saying that MKP would have beaten Parting in the first game >.> | ||

I think taking the step to actually freaking join a Korean team (even if it's just Prime) will pay off for him in the long run. This is the kind of thing I'd love for more foreigners to do because I think it's the way to go if you want to become the best. | ||

Heh, Prime being bashed is quite a running gag for quite some time now ! I fully agree with you, there's a high chance he gets the best training he's ever got there (though that's not 100% sure he'll eventually get way much better all of a sudden). Then, before MKP rejoined Prime, it looked quite like when T8 lost Jaedong (they still had TY, but he wasn't as much on rampage as he's now that he's on KT). | ||

For offline matches from 1/1 2014: In these games, Creator is 20–11 (64.52%) in games and 13–6 (68.42%) in matches. In these games, Life is 28–20 (58.33%) in games and 12–6 (66.67%) in matches. So yeah, life clearly better? edit: And in both offline and online; In these games, Creator is 27–16 (62.79%) in games and 16–8 (66.67%) in matches. In these games, Life is 36–30 (54.55%) in games and 16–10 (61.54%) in matches. | ||

As all of you argue about, I just want you to note that this: http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Prime#Notable is more important than what team is better. State is in a korean team, that is all that important, and guess what, its awesome! | ||
