thank god someone of importance made this thread. >.>

I twitch everytime *insert really good player here* wins and people immediately start suggesting "bonjwa?" it reminds me of those seagulls from Finding Nemo.

gosh i totally agree to this..

i'm a Flash fan also, but most foreign Flash fans classify him as (that term)..

and they always tend to argue about the definition of (that term)..

I agree completely, I'm sick of seeing it every five posts by the same 2-3 posters in every GSL LR thread.

I have no issue with this. One MASSIVE issue in tennis is the use of "GOAT", indeed. I'm sure the term is applied (to massively annoying effect) in many other sports, but is especially in tennis and in starcraft...here's to the death of that word.

Think we had 3-4 different players being crowned bonjwa in the LR-threads of MLG day 1.

So it's okay that BoxeR was bonjwa when the game was in it's infant stage and very unrefined, but not okay for Nestea when SC2 is young? and if this has something specifically to do with savior, that's even more sad. For what it's worth, I'm a BW fan through and through, but this is just ridiculous pedantic elitist whining, 100%.

Aditionally, BoxeR's reign didn't last for that long. Nestea will be coming up on similar length in the near future. All I hear is wah fucking wah.

Not whining, its the truth, comparing NesTea (big nerd baller much love to ma nigga T) to Ma Bonjwa is an insult.

The tyrant, the legend killer, was never dominating enough to be considered a bonjwa.

Sc2 kids wont know this however, seeing how the only thing they know about the bw scene are the names of TBLS. If they did they would understand how significant the title bonjwa is.

You do realize every time someone asks 'X = BONJWA???' he gets resoundingly shut down by the rest of TL? This includes with regards to all the recent finals winners.

It's not being applied, so you can't say it's losing meaning.

its cause every biased fanboy used it in BW. It was never serious, we would just scream PERFECTMAN BONJWA as a joke or something or like me, i claim that Hydra will be bonjwa 1 day. I guess it isnt a sacred word anymore lol

LOL piss off, I've been here watching BW for years. I just really like Jaedong's playstyle and seeing how he used to kick ass and he's the biggest rival for Flash...

Don't call me a sc2 kiddy.

Ya this too.

People are just throwing it around enthusiastically, but the way people are acting is as if the community had declared everyone who won a game bonjwa. If we took LR threads seriously, every unit in the game would be imbalanced and every player would be bm.

I agree that people need to chill with it (same as words like imba) though.
