He's definitly earning his victories, that's for sure. Zyphox was bodying him those first two games of losers finals and he came back.

I was rooting for him in GF. Good shit.

This is why I always object when players want to throw players like Denzell, REO and KDZ out the window just because they haven't been as visible lately. A great player is a great player, and you can't just decide to preemptively throw out someone's results due to forum conversations.

The community definitely needs to apologize to KDZ, Zyphox, and Tom Brady.

Also, let us not fall into the "this is the best player with character X in the world" trap again. If anything, Winter Brawl has proven that any player who loves and takes the game seriously can be a threat.
This.

Equally ridiculous was making "top 5 players" lists so early in the game. Even funnier was the fact that 2 days ago, nobody would have had KDZ in their top 5. EVO champ + 2 majors... think he's done enough to warrant such placing now?

This goes to show you what EVO means. When you win EVO...YOU ARE FUCKING GOOD. Shocking, I know. Your character can get nerfed, you can get get bodied for a while, but ultimately the best players find a way, and if you win EVO (a tournament with all the competition from across country), you're among the best. Hopefully we've learned our lessons not to doubt those who manage to achieve such great feats.

In fairness, KDZ hasn't been inactive. He just hasn't been having good results. But yes, your point stands, and I'll expand to "People shouldn't throw players out of the window due to a few disappointing results" as long as said players have proven how great they are in the past (ie Tom, KDZ, 16 Bit, Pig or anyone else who had been struggling for a while before righting the ship).

Tom is going to be mad he wasn't in this list

Someone wins EVO. Gets shit on by the community. Gets called a fraud. His character gets nerfed. He has a few disappointing showings. Comes back strong and fires back at the critics. Hmm....I've heard that one before.
