General Discussion / Re: Best FMP Players?
« Last post by crazycore on April 20, 2025, 04:13:52 pm »A exciting era for Original StarCraft was the xS.ChangDaWei and Silent.KoKaNee rivalry, many were at the top with but the only name that stopped these two powerhouses convincingly was LovelyRabbit.
xS.ChangDaWei wasn't the strongest player with a 65%-70% win rate during his championship runs but he would win many series against other top competitors to achieve the #1 rank.
Silent.KoKaNee reigned with a 80%-90% win rate for many seasons taking on xS. Pro] GanGstEr. Sc.T La. [VcK]. Nobody was stopping him from reaching K[Rank] due to his impressive Macro playstyle which he used to defend against all of the best Rushers in the League!
Majority of the player base were chasing the best "Early Game" label which resulted in many games under 10 minutes as the player with better Micro always took over their respected 1vs1 matches in full control. It was extremely rare to see someone turn it back around after losing out on the Early Game pressure play.
KoKaNee was able to stop the Mid Protoss build from players like xS.ChangDaWei Pro]DefJam- DiNkO Sonido xS.day Sky[VcK] along with beating GanGstEr.JoSe Zerg one that was considered the best.
LovelyRabbit entered the League during KoKaNee's prime and began changing views. The Korea was only asleep when every new spectator was starting to believe KoKaNee to be the best name around until LovelyRabbit won a few seasons topping every competitor every series earning the K[Rank] as well!
If you weren't around, he also had a 80%-85% win rate displaying a beautiful and gracious championship run versus the best!
I loved it because this was the turning point where Silent.KoKaNee decided to back off and new #1 Winners started being crowned! LovelyRabbit was a HERO for being the water to KoKaNee[aV] fire. 😂
It was a great decade and many champions are still around from this group, Pro]DefJam- GanGstEr.JoSe xS.Jake Silent.koN 👏
It's also a pleasure to see EviL + Momo + DiNkO as champions now! Things have changed now but the Greatest might be HyDrA[VcK] showcasing dominance over the years on SCW!
Adapting to the playstyles of Korea is a very complicated assignment but who other than the oldest Legend to lead the charge? 😂🫡
