I have returned for the golden age of Starcraft - the last great match this game will ever produce.

Only three tournaments have stood the test of time.
Three tournaments all progamers have strived to win.
Three tournaments that are the beginning and end criteria for all Starcraft success

(Z)JAEDONG! With this win you will cement your status as the greatest Starcraft player to have ever lived! Forget bonjwa. Will YOU stand as the greatest of all time?

Jaedong will take this title, then take his 7th at some point in the future, surpassing NaDa in number of titles.

However, whether Jaedong will surpass Nada's longevity will decide if he is truly the greatest.

Jaedong will pass NaDa, but... it still feels like NaDa always gets the shaft somehow. For one of the greatest players ever, the longest ever, he really doesn't get the credit he deserves. Maybe our history will be a little kinder to him now that Savior has turned out to be a douche. One can only hope.

I thought the general consensus of these forums was that NaDa was the most successful player in the history of BW, although people may not recognize his skills or creativeness as they should be, the fact remains that he has the most titles, and is the best.

Nada's greatness, IMO, is not his number of titles... but rather his consistency and longevity. True, he's no longer in the game now. However... the guy has performed at the high/competitive level for so long, while other Bonjwas have peaked and declined (none faster than Savior). It's great to see one old guy sticking through it all.

Having said that, if JD wins most titles, he is undoubtedly one of the greatest in history. It's amazing how he's already won the Golden Mouse and could possibly win a Golden Badge to top it off. Is the the "greatest"? All depends on how we define that word.
The probability of Kim Carrier getting all those predictions wrong is similar to the probability Flash loses a TvT. Kim Carrier MUST BE a genius. His only big mistake... STORK.

According to Reach, he is the fastest learner he has ever seen. He start bw only like 2/3 years ago. Infact, his bw history knowledge is so limited, he didn't even know what the map Guillotine was.

It's so hard to pinpoint one or the other as the 'best of all time' in the case of Jaedong matching NaDa's titles total. I think I have to give the edge to Jaedong just for his absolutely ridiculous ZvZ, but it's so close.

it's so hard to type out GG.
Jaedong has to be a Bonjwa. Tired of of rooting for July.

In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.
