And shredder has won both BIG and micro championship. it cannot play much better. there is no ther title to win. Championships are official events. long range planned :-)) and public. ssdf lists are unofficial events, at home somewhere, nobody witnesses it, an cannot be valuated the same level like an official event of the icca.
