who the hell is dream


4 year veteran. Two time SSL Finalist. One of the aces of SKT. Has played Life in three bo5+ sets this year. Has played multiple best Games of the Year in his career. Was cited by DRG to be Innovation's equal or better during Innovation's prime (2013). Is friends with Life. Kicked Rain out of Code S when Rain had top 3 PvT in the world in WoL, then beat Parting at IEM Katowice a few months later in WoL.

A player who showed glimpses of his current brilliance trough his career, but has only now been able to consistently show it on the big stage.

But seriously do Maru vs PartinG pls

Isn't it too one sided? I think there's a better chance for something like Polt vs Stephano.

It is somewhat one sided in PartinG's favour, yes, but I think it's one of the more interesting rivalries we have at the moment. Maru, the arguably strongest Terran in the world, a prodigy trying to prove himself as the best, known for having the best unit control of any Terran right now and for his outstanding TvP specifically. A player so talented he could and should be able to beat anyone. But PartinG haunts him as the one obstacle he fails to overcome, the one player that makes Maru so scared he begged Life in the GSL group selections not to move him to PartinG's group.

This is not a battle to see who is the best player on Earth (because despite his losses to Dream, Life is still very much the best bar none).


Life isn't even in the top 5 players right now. herO, Byul, Stats, Maru and Parting are all definitely better than Life. Innovation, classic, Rain, Dark, Dream etc are all on about the same level as Life

I am so disappointed in this. If its gonna be a series why start with one that is most recent and still going.. In a months timecthere might be even more to tell. Also readiing about other great rivalries would whet the mouth for the current best rivalry.

Youre obviously going to have to have Flash/Parting, soO/Zest, Innovation/Soulkey, DRG/MMA, MMA/MVP, maybe Naniwa/Stephano (not sure how many times they actually played though...) and Dayshi/ForGG

User was warned for this post

Holy quintuple post batman

This series looks very interesting, though I wonder if the three-way dynamic between MMA Mvp and Polt will be discussed at some point

Life vs Dream inspired this series so it makes sense that it would go first.

Dream is my favorite player since forever. As soon as I saw that S2SL match against Solar, I knew this guy was going places!! Definitely shows that SKT knows how to pick 'em. Really really hope Dream can take the finals for S2SL!

Also, great article, Stuchiu! Always a pleasure to read!
