But more seriously, regardless of any talk of whether Bonjwa is a strictly BW term, the biggest problem with these bonjwa discussions is it is always brought up when we see a rising star. The discussion in SC2 always revolves around someone who is starting to get really good rather than someone who has been dominating for a long period of time. Current and looking back (emphasis on past) rather than current and looking forward (theoretical future). The only correct response then is to throw it on the ground! ^This is the first argument that didn't sound like a whiny fan boy basically crying about something not being canon. Seriously its a term. Stop being so anal about its usage. If someone called MVP the closest thing to a bonjwa in SC2 you know what that person is refering to. They wouldn't be saying that he has the win rate that Savior had, but that he is the best player at this time (in their opinion). I'll admit, I did this to stir the pot a bit, but look how up in arms you guys got over one little post about a hypothedical. This kind of reaction over something so little, is actually more embaracing than the ludacris topic I brought up. If someone just entering into the StarCraft universe and this community, got this sort of reaction on something so little, something purely opinionated, I can imagine that person wouldn't want to stay in it. Minus the whole sexism issue, the reaction reminds myself of how the Fight Game Community can act out over something so small. Just saying, its a 6 letter word, don't get so caught up on it. Much Luv ♥ DJ Wilma | ||

People don't understand what a Bonjwa is. Look up their stats. Nobody was as dominate as people are talking about right now, even Savior and Oov, yes they had thier AMAZING runs, but they did not dominate consistently for 1-2 years. Rofl, Savior was known for MSLs, but how many OSLs did he win? Oh wait. Flash is the only one that holds up the standards in this thread, so according to these people, Flash is the only Bonjwa. | ||

LOLWat. Savior won 1 osl gold and 1 osl silver. Don't knock him for his OSL runs lmao. He was dominant in both leagues. And his reign lasted 3 years.'05, '06' '07. | ||

So bonjawa is reserved for complete dominance in a period of time? Who establishes what a "period of time" is? Is bonjawahood based on longevity of results? Are international results taken into account, or is the only real competition (therefore the only ways to determine dominance) in S. Korea? Are there any BW players who weren't considered bonjawa during their period of dominance, but later upon reflection were conferred that status? I just wonder because if MVP isn't considered bonjawa now, could he be considered bonjawa a year or two down the road if he continues with the highest results, even though it isn't for every tournament? One of the things that I feel people aren't taking into account is that BW was not an international competitive game (for the most part). THE tournament(s) were S. Korean; but now with SC2 the tournaments are worldwide. I feel there needs to be a clarification/distinction between what is a BW bonjawa and a SC2 bonjawa (when/if there ever is one). | ||
