i'm ranting because i think it's time we put an end to this.
you all know which one i'm talking about.

i'm sick and tired of seeing everyone throwing the word around randomly. as a poster said it on here

Well my bw elitist friend said koreans stopped using the (term) years ago and only foreigners use that term now.

He told me it started and stopped with Savior, then retroactively applied it to boxer, nada, etc. Then after that they don't use (that term) anymore. Flash is called God Young Ho."


can we all just leave it to rest? especially when applying it to the sc2 scene. i'd rather see everyone using ridiculous words like 'goat' or 'best mother fucking player ever', rather than that specific term which defined savior's (and retrospectively, boxer, nada and oov)'s spells of dominance.

good grief.

I don't think the term should be banned, but I do think that it is in no way applicable to the SC2 scene in the future. Maybe sometime later, one of these will appear for SC2. But it's hardly been a year, and nobody has matched the level of dominance that savior, etc. exerted over BW. I feel like overuse of this word is causing it to lose meaning.

You mean Elitist? As the E word?
Isn't that the TL. Forum's mission statement?
I could be wrong.

Maybe TL mods can apply a filter to change that word into some random hilarious word.

In all seriousness I agree with OP (also why is ur name in red are u a mod or something?), calling sc2 players the BW ord is such a farce. Intrigue would agree with me.

I just laugh every time someone says it.

I didn't even follow BW but it doesn't matter. It's painfully obvious that sc2 is not developed enough, and no player is developed enough for anything close to that level. I feel like anyone who wants to lay claim to that title needs an absolute grasp of every aspect of the game and perfect execution of their understanding. Long way to go...
