I think it's a reference to a game he played vs Leta on EC (or another space tile map) in which he gambled correctly on build and scouting location. The analysis that was done on this game was simply mind blowing.

Edit: found it, took me awhile to find the analysis http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=222612

but this way you get more blog views.

you can't just give the people one good blog post, you need to milk it for all it's worth by dividing it into expansions and selling it to the customer multiple times!

Can't wait for Flash to "learn" SC2. Flash left all his decision making skills in BW and brought none for SC2.

5/5. Gonna be waiting for the next parts.


I don't think he will ever be any really dominant in SC2 cause it's more random and 'stupid'. We will see how Legacy of the Void will be, if it's gonna be harder or not.

I wonder if that Chinese word for bonjwa is the real word in hanja in Korean.

It's a reference to Puyi, the last Emperor of China. His nickname is 末代皇帝, or the Final Emperor of the Dynasty. Flash, similarly, is the Last Ruler of the BW scene.

Awesome, didn't catch that

As for 本座, is it the real word for Bonjwa? It certainly sounds a lot like it.

I love flash so much I literally am sometimes legitimitly concerned that God will punish me for Idol worship. My fondest Flash memory was EVER OSL the game below absolutly blew my mind. We will also never ever ever see anything like that in SCII, just pure battlefield control, starving out a 5 gas zerg for 45 minutes, a fucking masterpiece in strategy and management.

What is real sad is how Browder and co. make it impossible to achieve this kind of play. To me, it just shows how they are unable to understand what made Starcraft such a great eSport game, thus, they are unfit to make a sequel worthy of Brood War.

When Flash dominates too much i like to watch GGplay 7gas vs meching Flash. Purification of the mind. I know Flash fucked up and let him take whole map, but its so fun to see Flash getting destroyed so much.

Although the title is rather apt.... I feel that it's a bit of an insult to Flash to compare him to the powerless Pu Yi. He's more like Alexander the Great or something like that.

yep, it's "The Last Bonjwa" (or literally "Bonjwa of the Final Years")

as targ said, it's sort of a nod to the "Last Emperor of China"; I don't think it's quite a comparison, but just a catchy title
