I don't know about everyone else, but I am so incredibly tired of people arguing semantics when it comes to the "B word" and whether or not someone fits the criteria of the word.

How about Flash is easily in the top 5 of the greatest players in the history of Brood War. The discussions about whether or not a player is a bonjwa is just so incredibly childish in my opinion. If a player has won multiple OSLs and MSLs give then some fucking credit and quit arguing semantics for Christ's sake.

DON'T INSULT US TROPERS!

Ah who am I kidding. Anyway, great article. Brood War 4 life, and I really hope Gretech stops being a jerk about everything and makes up with KesPA.

I agree that all the arguing about Bonjwa status is getting really really tiresome. But what is getting even more tiresome is that some people still try to deny Flash that title, thus fueling the debate further and further.

Flash was officially declared Bonjwa*, so why is this topic even up for debate anymore? Imho the matter is settled, once and for all.

I for one, will be happy if SC continues as a prime eSport for another decade. There is a ton of history in this decade of Starcraft that makes it feel just as huge as the history behind some physical sports. The rivalry's, the matchups, the Champions, and the battles. Ever bit made ever season I have watched something special.
Can you ever argue in favor of something without first proving it?

You know what's amazing? The writing here is 100,000,000 times better than any gaming magazine (I'm looking at you game informer) but for some reason they're being paid and we're "in the shadows." This is ridiculous. Anyone who watches BW or even SC2 matches gets hooked instantly how can this not be so popular as to be mainstream?

Yeah, it was a pretty crazy series - though not any amazing games. Overall I think I was satisfied.

Great read, btw.

Lol. Great write-up guys.

I sincerely hope it's a comma rather than a period.

Great writeup. I'm forever a Jaedong fan (the sheer ballsiness of 4-pooling twice in the finals was wonderful to witness) but I have to give credit to Flash for what he has accomplished here.

I really hope Jaedong (or Bisu, or SOMEONE) can figure Flash out, because while his wins are impressive, SCBW is going to get awfully boring if he just wins every championship.
