If soO makes to Ro.4 and the grand final is sOs vs Bogus, we'll totally have a flashback of the year 2013, which was a good time...

2013 was such a great year, basically the high-water mark of SC2 with the KeSPA switch and huge number of tournaments.

Inno and sOs are just about the only great players left from that era.


Dear, Maru Scarlett and aLive are still around. Also ByuL and SoO were getting a couple 2nd places in 2013 iirc?
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

soO is relatively on the same line with sOs and Bogus, but result wise other players you mentioned are not.
I wish that cheater is still alive though, then he can replace soO and have a perfect race line here.
sOs is THE ONLY player I pay attention to

And think about it, although these two guys have been played for a long long time. They have at least one offline champion title every single year since 2013 (if sOs win something this year ofc). No one else achieved this.
Also look at their career offline win rates against Koreans during each patch and each era, you cannot believe how consistent they are through such a long time. Only if that cheater didn't cheat...

Huh? Dear and Maru were winning starleagues back in 2013. By litterally no measure was soO doing better that year, or even Life for that matter

edit: for reference, Maru won OSL, and Dear won a GSL. soO's only significant result was a silver GSL medal (to Dear), and Life's were winning some smaller overseas tournaments. Believe it or not, Life was pretty weak in Korea during 2013. iirc 2012 and 2014 were more his years

Life won an MLG in 2013, and his final against Maru in 2015 at IEM Tappei is one of my fav ZvT series of All time - also that IEM was so great with Maru vs herO, Rain vs Soulkey, Maru vs Soulkey, Life vs Parting and of course the final Life Vs Maru with that unholly pause by Life ! Fucking great tournament

I'm not only talking about 2013 but their whole career achievements (offline titles or runner-up) in each year averagely. Maru and Dear didn't achieve a lot after 2014 compare to soO. Besides I need a Z.

Wow, I just realized Dark's already in the round of 4. I thought he wasn't supposed to get past R16.

He didn't want to be the next Curious. Nothing can stop him now.

I'd be happy for anyone who reaches Ro4. Strange... It's not like TY played bad, he really knew what to do but may be wasn't prepared enough for the specific army combination and strategies of Dark. May be I'd like to watch my favorite terran and zerg right now in a longer and more dramatic match between them.
For Byun I guess I got the feeling that he was very respected by Bogus in this match. He played well, but not too well for Inno's perfection. Even the rounds that Byun won was due to Innovation's fault and may be he was too patient after he was leading with 50 supply in most of the time. I expect really crazy semi-finals!

The comment chain was about 2013 but fair enough haha. Maru and Dear were certainly impressive in that year still
