Besides, Stojko has always had close competitions with someone. He battled to win in the end which I don't think that should be called "dominance". Dominance is no competitions.
How do you "blow people out of the water" with 6.0 & ordinals system? You can't get a 10 point lead after SP and win by 20-30 points in the end. Back then everyone was in contention, ie. for the top 3 in SP, whoever won the freeskate won the competition.
3 out of 4 wins in consecutive years at worlds is "dominance".
EDIT: I am not so much disputing who's more dominant, I'll give that edge to Plushenko (because of his early rise and longevity). All I am saying is to disregard Stojko being a "dominate" skater during his time doesn't rub well with me haha
