I was actually being sarcastic, but truth be told Anytime is one of the most over rated players ever.

niceee i cant like anytime as much as i would have... he beat boxer and denied the golden mouse

i think in all the games he plays if anytime wins. he wins by experience achieved by dedication. not by enslaving himself to crappy build orders and strategies.

also I cant agree on anytimes worst matchup being pvz or him not being known for his builds... there are tons of people on this forum saying (of course this is complete bullshit and these people also tend to dissapear at the times when he's winning ;p) that anytime can only win playing trick strategies and cant play straight up. but specifically in the so1 starleague he had a lot of build wins, 3gate dt vs yellow in groups, fast nexus at a second main into carrier vs xellos @ 815 in quarters, cheese plays 3 out of 4 games against oov in semis.
As for pvz he did go 2-0 pvz in the groups of so1 to advance and in the shinhan2 osl he played ggplay(2-1) and gorush(2-1) in ro16 and ro8. if you look at anytime's all time record he has almost exactly the same win percentage in each matchup and in this case stats really do say something in my opininon.
Meybe I was wrong writing that he isnt known for his builds. I just think that he isnt the inovative player like Nal ra he just have a really good execution of classical builds.You have a point though.
I am not saying his PvZ is awfull. Im just saying that he has lost to many games against nonames and won to little against well known players. The games you point out are hes only real games against good zerg that he has won. And still gorushs Pvz isnt that good either.

Why didnt you include his game vs. Kang min? Didn't he do a proxy 2 gate that failed and came back? I dunno exactly what happened, I just skimmed through it.
