That is a pretty convenient narrative for you Tirri, without anything really backing it up except your own version of events.
Here is another narrative for people to consider, backed up by some actual evidence.
In mwc06, the first of 2 mwc's you ever won, here are your TA's (taken from this page:

Threat Assessment - Grim
"Tirri is probably one of the worst players of all time, but somehow he still has managed to win more tournaments than anyone else.
He has been active and is definately
one of the most dangerous players in this tournament.
His music taste sucks though."
Threat Assessment - Dantski
"Tirri is the best active player around. 2nd best when Chohan is playing.
He'll tell us all about his tourney wins on the forum later."
Threat Assessment - tiger
"Tirri (also known as Drizzt) has been the best player at Myth since the dawn of the 21st century - and he was very, very good before. It startles me how he manages to get such incredible ratios with any set of units against any team - he always seems to emerge from every battle with gaudy success. He's pretty much a six-ball player, though I can't give him anything more than a five."

By comparison, here are Chohan's TA's by the same 3 TA'ers (taken from this page:
http://www.mythgaming.net/mwc2006/player.php?id=174
Threat Assessment - Grim
"Chohan is the type of player that can own you upside down without even breaking sweat.
He is most likely the most dangerous player you will be face in this tournament. He has won both of the 1vs1 tournaments organized in the last three years and if you add the two Bme tournament victories to that, his streak is pretty impressive. Only few players will be able to give him any real resistance. You better hope that you have players like that in your team."
Threat Assessment - Dantski
"Chohan has been the best myth player for the last few years, I doubt anyone can stand against his flank if he's on the ball.
The hvi hittur of a team thats won all its previous tournies."
Threat Assessment - tiger
"I have never seen Chohan lose a 1v1. Quick anecdote: after BTT lost a 1v1 "retirement match" to Erik in 2004, Chohan rose to his brother's defense and deftly handed Erik his ass and BTT his spot on pm.net. That series was the best 1v1 match I've ever seen in my entire life.
He's the best player in the world."

So you were fully active at this time according to grim, and according to Dantski, Chohan is #1, you are #2. According to grim, Chohan is #1, and you are just "one of the best". And according to Tiger, you and Chohan are both the best simultaneously apparently, but he further says that he never saw Chohan lose a 1v1.
Those TAs were also given at the start of mwc (maybe even before mwc began), which was before Chohan's 1v1 tournament just mere months later. Which means some prominent members of the myth community were already acknowledging Chohan clearly above you, even before he went undefeated in his 1v1 tournament months later. And in that 1v1 tournament, you either A: didn't participate in despite being fully active during this mwc (and beating Chohan previously, according to you only), and with prize money being offered too - which could only further mean that you were scared. Or B: you did play him, but you lost to him. I know Shaister played Chohan at this time and lost to him badly, but I can't recall what you did. Which one was it?
Furthermore, this wide perception of Chohan being better than you is easily explained by what Grim states in his TA that Chohan has won both of the 1v1 tournaments in the last 3 years (so roughly from 2003-2006). But this was during your PRIME activity years. Where were you in these, and what happened?
And then there was mwc07, your 2nd and last mwc win, another prime opportunity to prove your chops against Chohan in Shaister's 7 penis rising tournament. I mean, he went undefeated in his 1v1 tournament a year prior, but you say you beat him twice previously (again, according to you only), and what did you do? Again, you either, A: didn't play (which can only mean scared again as you still played and won in mwc that year). Or B: you did play, and lost to somebody because I know you were not in the top 3. Which one was it?
This only matches my several experiences with you in later 1v1 tournaments. As Adren and I already alluded, you dodged me from a 1v1 match in another 1v1 tournament for several weeks despite registering and participating in the 1v1 tournament up to that point, which caused the tournament to be cancelled. Pretty convenient timing there. And you have pulled similar antics in other tournaments with me as well, even though you participate just fine in matches against other lesser players, and in the mwc matches that often were happening at the same time. Scheduling has never been pleasant with you, and I know for a fact you were adamantly practicing duels right before our 1v1 finals match in the 2009 tournament (right before the mwc finals), which is part of the reason why.
I don't dispute that you are less active in these years, but I could easily completely abandon this game for a year or more, come back, and still fully expect to handily beat the entire community of myth in 1v1s, except for just a few people. You are apparently proud of yourself for doing only that, with more than nothing activity during several mwc seasons and simultaneous 1v1 tournaments that you participated in.
The truth is, you lack confidence in your abilities against the best players unless you have pristine activity levels and perfect practice because you don't want to risk losses, even though the benefit of such activity and practice is marginal at best for a veteran top player. You haven't had pristine activity levels and perfect practice since 2006. But of course, there are no recorded wins of you over Chohan from 2003-2006 despite at least 3 prime opportunities to do so. As we all know, you care a LOT about your tourney wins. But this also means you care a lot about your tournament losses too, which is what makes you a scared player.
But okay, let's say your prime was earlier than Chohan's long undefeated streak in 2000-2003. Unfortunately, I hate to break it to you, but most of myth was playing on dial-up internet connections during this period of time (especially Americans, who tend to lag behind the rest of the developed world). This can hardly be considered the primo era of skill in myth, even if it did have more active players. 500ms pings were typical back then. About 350ms was considered the absolute best ping possible for a player with a typical dial-up internet connection speed when connected to the absolute best, top-tier broadband hosts. By today's standards, anything over 200ms (nearly half of that) starts to noticeably affect play negatively for a top player. Anyone that had broadband internet (even DSL) would have had a MASSIVE advantage over the rest the community. When I was on dial-up internet back then, I was a 3 ball player. A few brief times I got my hands on DSL, I was instantly a 4 ball player just from the lower pings. That's how big of a difference internet connection speed was back then.
Most of America was still on America Online back then, or some other dial-up internet provider (56k dial-up modems, with more like 14.4k-28.8k actual connection speeds). Finland happens to be a country with one of the earliest and highest adoption rates of broadband internet. You really think there was never a time period around then that Finnish players were not enjoying a significant advantage over nearly everyone else due to much better internet connection speeds? Or tell us, when did you get broadband internet? By comparison, I got DSL for the first time in 2005, and cable internet for the first time in 2008. This is fairly typical for an American player.
TLDR: Chohan went undefeated in at least 4 1v1 tournaments from roughly 2003 to August, 2007. You did nothing to stop him during this entire time, despite it being mostly during your prime activity years. Either you lost and are scared now to admit the losses while trying to claim earlier wins over him, or you never played him because you were scared. Either way, you were scared of him. And in the same way, you were scared of me in later years too.
