HiyA is a great terran

HoeJJa is an awful zerg

since we don't know that flash practiced with effort I would advise that people dont start justifying jaedongs loss by blaming his inferior practice partners


For my part, just so I'm not misinterpreted, I wasn't justifying the loss or anything, the post about Effort being a practice partner was a misnomer and I've been corrected for that.

Great series of 2 top players of SC:BW.

why is it sad?

the term bonjwa was invented for one of your players and jaedong has had one of the most incredible and consistently successful careers ever. while flash had some extreme slumps, jaedong always brought his best to the table and did well.

you should be proud.

and you have the motherfucking KONG

JD did not have to go through flash (or even any great players) to get ALL of his titles.
In most cases though flash had JD or several other GREAT players (mainly in the TvT area) to play vs.

Flash is by far more dominate if you take.
Season win ratio and titles.
Plus there cannot be two bonjwas from one time period. So, if he loses to flash (which he did in the OSL) he still could have become one, but losing again to him in MSL OSL (and maybe the WCG) puts his run @ bonjwa at an end. Flash clearly dominated for 2 seasons.

Okay i'm a total noob when it comes to BW, but it just seems weird to me that Jaedong isn't considered up there with Nada, Savior, oov, Boxer and now Flash considering he is second only to Nada when it comes to titles.

no because pure titles aren't the only thing that matters

take into account over what time period they were won, under what conditions, how well they performed in proleague, elo, kespa rank, etc.

flash dominated every single aspect of starcraft as number one for an entire year straight. that means a lot more than an extra 2 silvers and a worthless wcg title


Nobody can question Flash's legitimacy at being a Bonjwa now, he is one, case closed.

Now as for JD, I believe he's one too. JD has been to a SL finals 5 seasons in a row. 5 SEASONS I don't think that's been done before. JD is tied for 2nd in total number of gold titles, he has more titles than 2 other Bonjwas. Had Flash not existed this last year JD probably would've won another 3 golds. There are many times when there are two concurrent Bonjwas whose peaks are just ever so slightly phase shifted, I believe this is such a time.

When a player is able to beat an opponent who has a much better micro than him, it shows that something is wrong.. jaedong definitely has better micro as displayed in the games. Flash only need to turtle in 2 bases and win a zerg player. Nice balance starcraft1 got.

Fuck Terran.

6 posts? When did you discover SC:BW???
This game has been played for more than 10 whole years, with every race having its times of dominance.
These days, no race is dominant. Flash and JD are, but Flash is a tad above JD at the moment (and I am a JD fan and Terran hater fyi).
Flash winning doesn't make Terran imba. Flash is just the best player at the moment. JD rapes anyone else, including loads of Terrans : have you noticed he was in 3 finals this season too?

Jaedong has never had quite the domination Flash has. Sure he has the individual accolades in titles, but, his reign was spread over a longer period of time.

In the past year, Flash has won 4 titles. That alone, says something.


Throw in the PL and WL final wins and it's pretty clinched.

JD is still one of the greatest players of all time, there's no doubt about that.

But Flash is definitely bonjwa.

God that montage in the end was so nostalgic. All those starleagues.
Feels strange to have been following this journey for so many years.

I really hope there will be more years to come

Jaedong's been the top player pretty much since late 2007 to May 2010...it's just hard for people to handle seeing him now absolutely CRUSHED...but it's happened. Flash takes spot as best ever.

luckily flash isnt with wemade anymore, otherwise he could only play tvt, right?
All what KT currently needs is a Zerg and a second Terran

people got the memory of a gold fish, or some of you just plain don't know

2008-2009 was a terran dark age when no terran could tvp, and weakened tvz ever since savior completely solved SKTerran. I used to be the biggest terran hater, even I mellowed. Terran has gone through plenty of pains like Zerg and Protoss.

flash was the one bright spot through all of this

flash just happens to be the best and plays Terran.

Because titles aren't the sole identifying factor of the bonjwa title. Domination can only be measured in the perspective of those who were there to see it happen.

Like yourself? you obviously know nothing about this game so you shouldn't post about it and especially not as authoritatively and smugly as you have been.
