Out of everyone so far jaedong comes the closest in being a bonjwa. Look at the guy's zvt zvz stats.They scream oov all over. And his zvp is top too and still getting better. Jaedong is a monster. Hes the one to beat. And i think he will until some terran or zerg dominates him like 3-0 in a final.
There is... one other. Inter.Mind :O He crushed through a very diverse number of match ups, and did it without any trouble. He just didn't do it very flashily, and he came out of no where, so no one's gotten a chance to really look at him yet.
Still...

Savior didn't win the first MSL that he appeared in.

Woah wtf? Multitasking eventually makes you bad at multitasking?
|
Well, you just terrified me for a second, then I read it, It doesn't mean byStarcraft. Although that can be right because Progamers, it's a regular Starcraft game except with like 1000X the stress. And Savior, right now is probably stressed out of his mind 2x

Jaedong is totally the next Bonjwa. He dismantled Bisu. I can't picture another Protoss laying a glove on him, as Free lost to Savior, Ra is in iffy form, and Anytime plays on his team (I think Anytime JD would be a great matchup). Basically, if anybody has a shot at JD it's Anytime. His ZvT is absolutely monstrous. His ZvZ is perfect. Basically, I think that Lux has a shot of eking out a ZvZ win, as Anytime has a chance of beating him, otherwise this MSL belongs to him, and he looks miles ahead of anybody in the OSL.
Jaedong double champion this season, you heard it here first (probably not :|)

He dismantled Bisu.
This is an awful statement. Jaedong was on the edge of his seat most of the game, and Jaedong miraculously won. Sure, Jaedong did win, but he didn't totally dismantle as you claim. Nevertheless, the game was on Blue Storm, so... ;D

I'm a JD fan, give me a little artistic freedom 
Any other map and JD probably wouldn't have won. But, the case is made. JD can play ZvP in a very big way.

This is so interesting and scary at the same time.
If this article is right progamers are literally burning themselves out.
Multitasking constantly for 10 hours a day 6-7 days a week for a huge portion of the year... thats gotta put so much stress on the nervous system and body.

Most tasks you perform in BW are incredibly simple in nature. With the amount of practice progamers are getting, almost everything that can be multitasked is done completely mechanically and doesn't require any higher brain functions. I don't think BW multitasking puts a lot of stress on the brain per se.
However progamers don't play casual games. They're trying to push it as far as it will go. You can make any simple task stressful by trying to do it faster, better, stronger, whatever. I don't think burnout results from multitasking as much as from the stress one naturally expects in such a pressure-rich environment.

Yeah, pretty much what Bash9 said.
If this were true, Nada would be dead, instead of the sexy, miraculously long lasting schmuck he is.
|
Theres something wrong with the thing on the front page..
on the Trigem MSL Iloveoov defeated Nada on the semifinals (checked on TLPD) and defeated Yellow on the finals.
My Theory
It seems like the Bonjwa seems to be going by defeating the last Bonjwa on the semifinals, like Savior beating Iloveoov on the semifinals, and people were thinking Bisu was going to be Bonjwa because he beat Savior on the MSL Finals, but when Mind came and played on GOM TV MSL Season 3 he defeated the last bonjwa (Savior) 3-2 and some reason it seems that Mind could be the next Bonjwa. again this is my theory it could be wrong

I think flash has a shot at becoming a legitimate bonjwa contender in the future
sun is pretty set on bisu and setting on jaedong

what? setting on JaeDong? I'd say it's just started to rise.
imo, Bisu is an OSL title short of having the "Bonjwa" title.

If Bisu had won the Ever OSL, or the Gom3 MSL then maybe. If both, definitely. Bisu was the best player since march and has been the best player up untill the end of the fall season. Winning either of those starleagues would give Bisu almost a whole year of uninterrupted domination over the progaming scene. In other words he'd have been sitting on the "throne" for almost a year.
If Bisu somehow wins a starleague in the future, it would be hard calling him a bonjwa because there will be players like Flash and Jaedong around who are better than him. How can you be called a bonjwa when there are two or more players who are better? He needed long term domination.

Ionno if  Bisu counts lol i mean if you check  iloveoov, NaDa,  sAviOr they have in their tlpd profiles atlest a highlights section if not more.
Not much love for Bisu eh?

I do hope you forgive the bump, but with the new MSL season (and JD playing soon) . . .
I know bonjwas no longer exist cos of the closeness of skill gaps between players, where A classes can take on S classes on a good day, but what if, what if, what if . . .
Jaedong, who already won and OSL and an MSL (out of two straight finals appearances) reverses the trend? Winning an OSL before winning 3 (out of 4) MSLs?
That would be a beautiful, beautiful thing, wouldn't it?
