Yes royal road is a term only associated with the OSL. Just like the golden mouse etc.
Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

traditionally "royal road" has been reserved for only starleague, but recently korean news sites have been using "royal road" in reference to MSL. i personally think that is inaccurate and it should only be used with regard to starleague, but whatever

Im pretty sure there is a royal road for msl. They were talking about it. They meaning the commentators about some jinx. One if bisu is really a bonjwha he would win 3 msls and than win an osl. Since he won two in a row. And a royal road jinx where a person who gets to his first msl and gets to the finals win.

Why doesn't MSL have a Royal Road? Anyone involved in MSL can just say one exists and it does.

Because "It's not about prestige or what's worth more or what's more important or harder or whatever. It's simply a definition. It's like how the golden mouse is an OSL only thing. It's just the way people define it, it's a tradition." paraphrased quote from wise man

People could do the same crap with the golden mouse if they wanted to. It's a thing to keep to OSL only. Not to mention

LOL

But yeah, taking out Savior and Bisu in fair fights right in a row. That's hard core.

We're definitely going to see a lot more of him in Proleague, so we'll be able to gauge if he's got any consistency or not..

I was under the impression that Royal Road was only for OSL as well.

Doesn't Royal Road mean to win both Starleagues in your first try?

No, he was in prelims. He went from prelims all the way to OSL win.

His first ODT group was pretty ridiculous, it was Savior, Jaedong, Sea, and Casy (when Casy was still good TvZ).
