       I'd like to Apologize, I misclicked "preview" and accidentally clicked Post. Anyway here's it is.

      The Very First Protosss to Reach #1 in the KESPA Rankings, #3 Most Wins at the Shinhan Bank Proleague, #3 at the Power Ranks. The Only Protoss to Ever win 3 StarLeagues. And the sole survivor of the Protoss Race.

                                                                              Bisu
                                                      [image loading]

      Everyone knows there are 3 S-Class Players right know who are Near-Bonjwa Status, namely, (T)Flash, (Z)Jaedong, and of course, (P)Bisu.

      It all started way back on 2007. The Battle of the Maestro, and Bisu. Savior was the Bonjwa back then, considered as the "Scourge of Protoss" destroying everyone in his path. But it was until....

                        
[image loading]

                                                                  
[image loading]


      It was on GOM TV MSL were the 4th Bonjwa fell at the hands of the newly claimed "Revolutionist". Reining supreme, Bisu was appointed by the Xel Naga as the "Perfect Creation". Bisu, was pure in form, and essense. He knew what to do at any given situation, and won another MSL.

      Time passed, and his "Perfection" began to fade, losing to Mind at the 3rd GOM TV MSL. And suddenly disappeared... But it was not long, when the Gods of StarCraft: Brood War, and was appointed as the "Pretty Boy Toss" sent out on 1 mission, to be Perfect once more, and be called a "Bonjwa".

      Soon after, he and his fellow Race, dominated the Scene, Bisu leading his Race into "The Golden Age of Protoss" destroying everyone in his Path, taking his 3rd MSL, closer.. and closer... to being called "Bonjwa".

      But alas, his reign was short lived, when he got kicked of the MSL, and OSL, destroying the dreams of the Bisu Fanboys around the world, the dream of their hero, becoming a Bonjwa.
But it was his fall, that made him even stronger, when the Gods of OSL, gave him another chance by letting him replace Backho's spot for the OSL. Soon after, he dominated his opponents, left and right. Until.. haters chanted a spell on him. Cursing him, never ever to win an OSL in his life. So it happened, the Most Powerful of the Protoss Race, was but destroyed, but his Ally, getting 3-0ed by his good friend Fantasy.

      The quest to Bonjwaism continues, it was indeed tough for him to lose and OSL, his very dream. Especially, when it could have been a Bisu vs Jaedong Final. But alas, one must move on, to become even stronger. So he did, Bisu grew stronger and stronger with each passing day, mentally and physically. Reaching the round of 16 of both the Avalon MSL, and the Bacchus OSL. But alas, the curse, Bisu losing to Zero and go.go getting kicked out of the OSL, because his Insurance Terran, insured that Bisu won't make it to Ro8. However, it was time for a rematch, Fantasy vs Bisu once again.

      So it's time for Payback, as Bisu faces his good friend Fantasy once again, but this time, on MSL, which looks more epic than OSL atm. Destroying fantasy at game 1, defending against, the master of vultures, and simply OWNING him till the end. Off to game 2, where he displays his knowledge of the game, knowing Fantasy would wall, he uses his brain, and 2 gate Zeals his way into victory.

      Bisu is now at the Ro8, as well as Jaedong. The most epic match, the world will ever see (next to -Combat-EX- vs Chill) which was destroyed by Fantasy last OSL, may now finally come. Bisu vs Jaedong in the finals. Yes it is indeed epic, knowing Bisu and Jaedong, they will both reach the Final and one of them will indeed succeed. As iloveoov, Nada, and Savior ahs done, to be considered a Bonjwa, one must win 3 MSLs, and the immediate OSL after. Bisu has not yet achieved this, but times change.

       It was The Emperor, who was the very first to be called a "Bonjwa" but he never took the same path, as the other 3 did. He took it differently. Now, after over 10 years in the making, StarCraft: Broodwar is about to give way, to his decendant, StarCraft II. It is only fitting, that the 1st Bonjwa, and the Last Bonjwa, take a different path to Bonjwaism.

       Bisu, Bisu, Bisu, the "Revolutionist", eXecutor of the Protoss Fleet, and Soon to be Bonjwa. Bisu has this in the bag. And win Avalon MSL easily, even if he will face a "rival", namely Jaedong. It will indeed be epic. Epic enought that everyone will respect him as...

                                                [image loading]

                                                                  (P)The Last Bonjwa

Like everytime one of Bisu/Flash/JD is on an amazing streak and people start making threads about them being bonjwa's, irony makes them lose a few games right after the thread gets up and an amazing flamefest follows.

While Bisu is the most succesfull and perhaps most talent protoss ever, his Bonjwa status is arguable. I just hope he won't start losing because of this thread.

Bisu and Jaedong would both be bonjwas if it weren't for the existence of the respective other.

Watch Jaedong take everything now, the MSL and OSL and GOM.

Bisu isn't Bonjwa, there's no doubt he's the best toss but he still isn't far enough ahead of Jaedong and Fantasy to be considered Bonjwa.

Flash isn't anywhere near being bonjwa, too inconsistent.

Edit: I'm not saying Flash is bad, I have a lot of respect for the guy, it's just that I don't think he's quite on the same level as Bisu and Jaedong and that Fantasy has been a very good contender for best T lately.

It would have been a much better read if not for horrible grammar and spelling mistakes everywhere.

Add Flash to that and you have a true statement.
There is no simple bonjwa at this current time, period. The skill level of those three is that good that it's impossible to pinpoint a 'bonjwa' out of those three (although Flash is definitely struggling as of late, no denying that).

It was first mentioned in an interview during Shinhan-3 by a FiFo reporter doing an interview with Savior where he mentioned the term 'bonjwa'. Since then, us foreigners have seemed to applied it to previous generations.

Yes

then they realised previous players (the other 3 bonjwas) did as well as savior during their time, so people called them bonjwa too, but only because of savior.

no savior, no 'bonjwa' term.

hmmm... bisu - bonjwa? never

it feels good to be a hater




In all seriousness, Bisu's chances of winning the MSL are not that great, and Jaedong has a staggering lead on him in the Kespa rankings. His lead is almost worth a 1000 points, that's the same as sAviOr scored when he was in his prime, against the #2 KesPa at the time, Nada.
