........ If he won the last OSL ("Bisu's Destiny"), i suppose he *could* be called a bonjwa, but that's still debatable due to his lack of dominance. However, he lost 3-0 to Fantasy. There are many talented players that have won titles, yet never held the title of Bonjwa. Reach, Ra, and Julyzerg are probably the most prominent ones. I think Bisu, as well as JD and Flash, will fit in their group.

In all seriousness, Bisu's chances of winning the OSL 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.

Unless you're talking about future OSLs (which I too think he won't be able to win that easily, because OSL mapmakers hate toss :p), he is already out of the current OSL

Hey, 0% chance is pretty good isn't it?

Anyways, hasn't there been enough of this bonjwa talk? It's too ambiguous and up in the air as to who is the top player right now in the SC scene. Isn't being bonjwa all about being like the absolute best? If there's any doubt at all, then bonjwa he is not.

I'm pretty sure minus_human was talking about the MSL, we just had a talk on that today.

Yeah, someone who is undisputed best player by a mile and can't be taken down by ANYONE.

I like how I knew what the post was about by just reading the topic title and who played in the MSL.

Anyway

The fact that this kind of topic appears after nearly every single Ro16 win means the exact opposite of what the topic creators are trying to get across.

you can't call someone bonjwa if most people doesn't acknowledge it. Boxer and savior are bonjwas coz people agree and acknowledge that they are really bonjwas.

Oh, I was looking more at the winning percentage (which was a little above 65%), and not his performance in the leagues (he did OK in proleague though). I don't think it's fair to say that he's as much dependent on maps as other players, especially zergs, because the overall zerg winning percentage was under 50%. Sure, he played worse than his previous form, but he still played far better than "dropping out of the ro16" gives him credit for.

Anyway, I guess this thread dooms bisu to a relatively early and disappointing exit from the MSL, eh?

Bisu has the ultimate OSL curse, the Korean WCG qualifications were waaaay before the TaekBang, not to mention that WCG is using completely different maps.

Your JD fanboys is ok, but your hate towards Bisu is the most annoying thing to happen to me since Liverpool won the CL in the final vs Milan. Many ppl here dont like Bisu, but are so much more reasonable in their posts than you. If you want to learn how to express your feelings for him read some posts of Avidkeystamper or Atrioc

Still remember that while Savior was destroying everyone in the MSL a few years back, he still uberly failed in the OSL, getting stuck in prelims and survivor stages for quite a while. Everyone still considered him bonjwa though cause he was destroying everything in MSL.

I find it quite ironic how you're talking about fanboys and yet you diss one of the greatest CL finals in the history just because your favorite team did not win.

Ugh, I hate these "Bisu/Jaedong/Whatever Bonjwa" threads. They're stupid, devolve into a flamefest, and inevitably, the mentioned player starts losing a little ways down the line.

No, Bisu is not a Bonjwa. No, Jaedong is not a Bonjwa. Saying anything about either of them being Bonjwa just proves that you haven't been following professional Starcraft for nearly long enough.

I'm a Bisu fan. I will agree that he's the best player to ever play Protoss. But to say that he's a Bonjwa is to ignore the sheer dominance and power of past Bonjwas.

I hate both Milan and Liverpool with passion. What annoyed my as fuck was the liverpool fans' reaction after this match...

I will never discredit Jaedong from his accomplishments but he was as metagame and map balance dependable as the other zerg players during TaekBang. PL is something completely different - ask Sea, he raped shit in PL but failed on the same maps in the individuals.
