Huh, what? I'm not sure about how old Savior is, but the guy has never been "off the map" so far. He needed a few months before being able to display his skills but he has only gotten better since then. And my guess is that, just like Nada and Oov, he won't have a slump before winning an OSL.
he was around for a while before he really came on in the msl where he beat nada 2-0 and stuff im pretty sure, i dont know how long though.
Sure he was. Just like any other rookie, he was basically playing a few random teamleague games at first, while learning from teammates, and then started qualifying for individual leagues, etc etc. But the guy's not nearly as "oldschool" as Gorush is. And he's never got into a slump or anything like that. (Yet.)

Well, I'm not meaning he'll definitely win the first OSL he'll get to play in -- but I sure doubt he'll slump before achieving one.
Which means he could lose while being in top shape? Am I crazy?! Well, if you look at Oov, that's exactly what happened to him during his first OSL (vs July). He won the following one though, if I'm not mistaken. And then only started slumping (even though his first one was kinda short).
edit: also yeah, ZvZ is another possibility, although Savior has become one of the very best at it, imo.

arrogance? =O i totally love his drive to be the best
NaDa's words are more arrogant....
He says that he "definitely won't lose" at the start of the match. Then he "definitely will have his revenge" later. Good confidence, but lots of arrogance as well.
When he is seen as the underdog, it is confidence, not arrogance. Although he may very well have been arrogant, we dont count that against him.
I like his Confidence, he's so cool. When you're the best, there's no reason to be modest. As long as you don't act all arrogant and think you're better than anyone else.
Yeah, I really don't find it exaggarating or an arrogance when he says he wants to be the best player of the year! He can beat anyone, even his ZvZ is absolutely on the top level and he can compete with Chojja and other superb Zergs, he deserves the #1 spot definitely!
