    Yeah they're probably CHN best talent in MD since fu/cai/zhang, they're looking so comfortable in defense and flat game, not rushing anything. I know people compare them to younger minions but honestly I don't see it. liang/wang play discipline badminton, while minions style of play back then were kind of like chaotic.

    Superb WangLiang 3rd SS title.

    Will they be the pair that dominated the tour like Minions? That i wonder! Feels like they have the potential to reach that kind of 30SS titles and many years as WR1.

    Amazing Liang/Wang,
    They had been able to beat almost all INA MD and they still have enough time to develop their performance.
    With Ou/Liu, they are really nightmare to INA MD.

    I would say how far this pair can go depends on Liang. ( I think they should have won AE too if not for his nervousness).

    To me, they are favourite for WC and Paris. MD , MS looks fun.

    I don't think chinese players cares about dominating world tour events, big titles like OG n WC are more important

    Maybe. But to be the best MD pair , they look consistent . They have better start than Li/Liu.Without SS titles, they will be another LeeWang and they are too good for that i feel

    Leo/daniel and liang/wang are basically the same age, it should be an interesting battle between these 2 pairs in the future.

    I feel like Daniel looks really heavy. The jury will be out if the will have long career. They play really slow , dont really like the way their style.

    Its a shame Adinata got injured. Out of all 2000+ INA athletes , he is the one impressed me the most.

    Rather win 10 SS titles + OG n WC than 30 SS titles without any major title

    I think they might be better than liu/ou, maybe not if LJH had not retired but liu cant carry ou thru every match. Liang/wang will eventually reach WR 1 in the near future if they keep this up.

    Yeah we will never know but i feel WanGL will win that Final especially if they are the one that win with such a tight score and not the daddies. I remember they lost MO Final vs FajarRian.

    there is usually a saying in China, you lose once but you dont lose twice in a row. And to me they are v equal pair.

    If its from Daddies itself , yeah in Final its definitely a gift. They are already tired. Anyone who faces them in final at this age is a big blessings

    It's not even debatable, they're clearly better than ou/liu. ou is basically is the new liu cheng, shame they could't find a decent partner for yuchen

    TH is a legend, winning WC, OG, & AG is definitely impressive, but other than that I don't even remember him winning something other than Indonesia Open. LCW is better all time not only because he's consistent and won a lot more titles, but also because he came close in WC n OG so many times, and he had to play prime LD who basically the GOAT of badminton
