Random Trivia Knowledge

Despite Napoleon being most times the underdog in tournaments, he has a high rate of success in the Russian events. He signed up for six tours, took gold twice and bronze three times.

Sziky on the other hand could have signed up for 67 tournaments and won medals in 25 of them, the table doesn’t list the two fourth places the Hungarian won.

Sziky and Scan are the only players with a profile so packed with medals, that their pages only show their golds and silvers.

Gargoyle scored higher than the rest, because he won the first two Defiler Tournaments ever and the RU only tour – if only tournaments open for every foreigner would have been counted in, he’d be on place 8; Furthermore, he won the first place of MMM Tour 1 by walk over against Scan. Hard to say if he’d had a chance to win the overall series,

The only Protoss players to win gold at least twice in Defiler Tournaments are Lancerx, Tama and Dewalt.

When Heme left the scene he was still on #2 overall with the highest Win Ratio against every other player; it took 12 more months for Scan to replace him; eOnzErG and gargoyle needed another 12 months to tie up with the Russian Terran.

The only player to win a Defiler Gold Medal using nothing but random as race is Scan

In the 57th official Defiler Tournament Korean BJ Terror[fOu] participated. He went up 1-0 in the Semi Finals against Arcneon, but stopped playing after, because he was not able to set up a paypal account.

looks cool, but the above table seems wrong factwise to me (if the source of information is defiler.ru as stated)

It's wrong if you expect the DeSPA table. The DeSPA ranking uses Elo and a sanction term for inactivity, hence my graphic will not match the current DeSPA Top 10. Mine includes Gold Medals and the overall statistics from player pages (excluding Koreans / Anfod) for all official tours - so its facts are 'legit', just display different kind of information.

The table does include numbers for Gold, Silver and Bronze Medals count but in many cases they are wrong: I got 3 golds, not 2; eonzerg has 6, not 4; Gargoyle has 3, not 5; Heme has 2, not 4; trutaCz has more golds and silvers etc etc

You won Defiler 44 and 46? I did not count in Mini Tours, these are nothing compared to the big tournaments. Often no loser bracket, smaller distances, less skilled players, sometimes no money.

Gargoyle has 5 gold medals:

Defiler 1, 2, MMM Tour 1, Ru Tour, Defiler 63

Heme has four:

Defiler 3, 4, 7 and 13

It isn't the DeSPA ranking and it does count in various accounts. The medals play out, check http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft/Defiler_Tournaments/Results if you dont believe me D:

Ah, okay, that makes more sense.

But still - Mini Tours aren't included in Medals count and (perhaps) Money won , yet again Mini Tours are included statisticwise in the above table. That's where my confusion came from.

And Mini Tours are no nothing! (thx to Defi for most of them xD)
