I like (I can't remember who first posted this)'s requirements for Bonjwa:

1. Major tournament success (4 major titles or so, w/e)
2. Significant impact on the game
3. Dominance over a sustained period of time

Bisu is close to #1 and has #2, but without #3 he is not Bonjwa.

Edit- and unless Jaedong continues dominating he isn't either.

And given his loss to Effort he isn't dominant enough.


I think you're either

A) Overestimating Bisu's "impact on the game"

or

B) Underestimating the bonjwa's impact on the game.

Someone (I believe Plexa) once highlighted what each bonjwa brought to the game. In a very rough paraphrase it was: BoxeR was micro, NaDa was management, Oov was macro and sAviOr was timing.

I recognize Bisu definitely had an impact on the way people play Protoss, but not to the extent that other races were adopting from him. They were adapting to him.

He never took into account that Iris is going to rape the piss out of Bisu



lol? bisu can practice with fantasy, pretty much the strongest tvp player out there right now. i really dont see bisu being defeated by iris. im rather afraid of zergs as the zvp metagame seems to be shifted quite far towards z atm.


Did you by chance read my signature dude?

Savior had something crazy like 7 MSL finals in a row. That's dominance. Same for the other bonjwas. If Jaedong wins the OSL, he'll be the most accomplished and best skill-wise zerg (though he already is), but he won't have that dominant air because Bisu, and potentially Fantasy, Flash, and Effort.
Not being bonjwa doesn't take anything away from anybody when you consider his competition. I can definitely see JD being the GOAZ without being bonjwa. Not now, but with a few more titles.

well, the OP wanted us to Mock his words, so mocking we will.

"Bisu is bonjwa" "Bisu wins everything" what a kid. If you love him so much why dont you marry him???

so in conclusion, No.

lost saga MSL and GOMTV MSL S4

bisu hand-picks his groups, consisting of all zergs, and either people who can't play ZvP or are washed up veterans

he didn't get out of either of them

that sound like a bonjwa to you?

There will not be a final bonjwa.

They will make up some crazy thing like the triumvirate.
