_MyST_IORI started off as _21tc_IORI. That was the first I knew of him anyway and that was back in mid-2003 or so. For a while he was just another 1900 player. He entered Chinese tournaments, did OK, always was an aggressive player. Was never the best player in 21tc clan. Fast forward to MyST clan some time in 2004, I think towards the end. _SWJ_windy had recently impressed the world in 2003 when beat DauT in FOPT's tournament, and China was very much on the minds of everyone as a source of new AOC experts. The stage was set. Around that time Chris came along with his 22p forward. IORI copied it and had a lot of success, so much so in fact that he was better than Chris for a short while and dominated everyone on Zone and won a few big tournaments. For a while the only name the average AOC fan cared about was IORI. As the game evolved, IORI was still a strong player, capable of beating the best, but was surpassed by his MyST teammate BT4 who proved with the passage of time to be a far better all around player who had more staying power. IORI's legacy is that he more or less dominated a decent part of 2004 and some of 2005 and was known for aggressive rushes. He's the kind of player that was inspired by a strategy and took it to unprecedented levels, to the point where people forgot who originally made it work.
That's all I can tell you about the guy, a few of the dates may be a little off but it's pretty accurate.
the first clan iori jioned was CMF(a clan firmed by "China Music Forum" merbers),and his nick was cmf_jy. he jioned as a new aocer and became the stongest one of CMF after 3 months. at that time,his most love of
aoc was in one single unit:scout.11.he got his carzy micro power from those scouts i think. CMF_JY became a
darkhorse in a chinese tour and got beated by CNA_blackbear, a great player he built "the CNA Dynasty"in china
aoc history.
iori left cmf for get higher level clanmate/opponent,then was the 21tc story as donysus said.something happend and three 21tc young players jioned myst together,and some time later myst became a dream clan as SWJ,it has windy\cloudy\ anan\twink etc,and CNA,it has blackbear\pk\atao\free etc.and air,cath,ares......china cup,wcl,.....gold old time of chinese aoc community.
the three players were:iori,bt4,heaton.
and iori's parents didnt allowed him pay too much time to play aoc from cmf age.so iori went to internet bar offen,and drived a benz as a student 11. finally his parents got success and after iori left school he jioned his family company.he played bcc at his office,its the reason why there were so much pause in his later games.to aoc,its sad,the iori at office is not the one at bar.he played less and less.finally, qiut.
Thanks so much for the inside info. Truly great mind of AoC. I wish he came back to challenge Daut. And have a gazillion of gold plated recs of course :D
IORI was awesome in early 2004 when he came from nowhere and became the guy to beat on ara and was maybe top 5 player for 1 or 2 years, but he was dated on his last days he looked like if he was bored or something, i remember Chris literally toying with him in BCC final stage. I never liked his strats but he was an elegant player, like Yanzi or Koven, always microing everything.
I dont think he could come back and challenge Daut. Daut of 2008 would lose like 25-1 to today Daut. Daut became so good that i dont even hate him anymore.
If I'm not wrong, when must the time of azt 1x1 ara, I mean when ppl stop using huns in 1x1 ara in tournament match, I think he was the only one that didnt move... and he was able to handle huns vs azt 1x1 ara preaty well, actually I loved to see him playinh huns vs azt 1x1 ara...
i think goodboy is not a "contemporary"1.0c player to iori.in2004,goodboy was known as jx_坏男孩(means"badboy",11)by 1.0 players in YZ zone.but 1.0c players is an other community to 1.0. and at that time,
they didn\t like each others in a way. 1.0 had more players,but important tournaments been always 1.0c.to be
an acknownledge expert,u must play 1.0c and beat someone.but some 1.0 players think theyself or theirhero played good enough,their only weakness was there was no a 1.0 zone to show their ranking.
i think its 2004,there was a 1.0 tour"new year cup",bt4 sumrfed and raped many fomous 1.0 players untill someone pionted out he was bt4,the guy who playing 1.0c and got the champion from some foreign guys.so
the admin baned him.then some ppls protest that bt4 didnt stole anything,he just broken out a convetion (there are no 1.0c top players sigh up a 1.0 tournament)but not a rule。so the admin canceled the ban dicision,
and bt4 got the 1st.
in that tounament,bt4 lost only one game to an other sumrf(swj_anan)in SF,in the final, he won easy,3:0to
jx_坏男孩,aka goodboy1 now.
few days later,in a prechat of a game with iori,bt4 said:
"how those 1.0er blabla again?"
and when goodboy cameback from the army,and cameup from1.0,iori was qiut already. iori is one of the few
chinese players who play 1.0 hardly.so i dont think there were many games or long story between them。
and im sorry i made a mistake that the games was not the final,its one of the QF.
because of the main chinese aoc forum was killed by the fxxx govermt,its diffcult to find some old recs now.anyway,there'are all games of the tournament here: http://www.fishpifa.cn/dgsd/forum.php?m ... 157&page=1
oh,sorry.its not all games.the 2 pages only cluding the recs from the QF to the final.the tour should had 128 signed players.
i said its not big didnt mean less players or short Schedule,just because its 1.0 and top chinese players had no intreseting in it at that time.so its not a "highese level"chinese tour.
the link about 2011 new year cup u posted was in detail enogh.hehe
