One does not drop down to the Bonjwa level, only to S-class, A-class or below.
Bonjwa is bonjwa.

Poor Flash, he deserved better than this, even as a JD fan.

Nice hidden message thing, took me a while to get it even when it was mentioned :\

Also, I don't get it but... GO JAEDONG GO!!!!

GO JAEDONG GO!!!!


Thanks for the timely coverage as usual, missed the Flash games... Can't wait for the other groups of death!
MMOs kill APM. However Proleague plus BW Proscene music increase APM -> 100. 이제동 Fighting! Highest ranked Jaedong owner in FPL10 = clearly #1 Jaedong fan~! <- Keeping my sig from 2010

For a bonjwa he sure has gotten far in both OSL and MSL leagues this season. Oh wait he got eliminated. So much for being a bonjwa.


P.S. Article was nicely written. ;P

tbh, I think that flash didnt want to drop out of MSL, but when he did he used his mothers advice as an "excuse" for it being OK.

On the other hand I think he winged it and decided to take a break from indiv leagues on the OSL the way he played vs Hyuk... I mean, Hyuk didn't play amazing (he played good, etc and flash 8raxxed...) But tbh I dont think he put same amount of practice into it, as he would normally.

And if others just catched up while flash doing worse... well... It took a goddamn year to do so, about friggin time tbh.
Cant wait for next time someone elevates their play in the same manner. I get goozebumbs at the thought of it.

Thanks for the writeup flamewheel! You made me think over tihngs abit, that's something I will allways love when someone provokes me to think.

I don't understand with the flash hate you have to got to give the kid credit for being a terran player to dominate scene and bring terran to the next level without him you will be playing single armory vs protoss the whole time . Flash is will always be the leader of the terran race Lead teh way . Lee young ho fighting !.

I am kinda sad Flash got dominated because on better maps I wanted to see if Flash could beat Jaedong in a bo5. Now I am a sad panda .

Oh well hopefully Jaedong can win both leagues and beat Nada's record for medals :D

Haters gonna hate, I'm not even gonna bother reading most of the posts in this thread.

I've kind of been thinking about the same questions after this whole fiasco...is this it? Considering Flash only earned the title of bonjwa after his dual Starleague win a few months ago, is this already the end of his reign? It seems improbable but possible. You can never lose the title of bonjwa once you have earned it, but the question is when we look back at history, will December 2010 be looked at as the month when Flash's domination ended?

It's really hard to say. The only proof we have is four bo1 losses, and one of them was against Kal (Protoss of the year) on a Protoss favoured map. That's obviously forgiveable. But what about the other three losses? Ssak and Classic? And then to top it off, Hyuk? Are you fucking serious? These are not the sort of guys you expect to take games off Flash, especially consecutively.

But at the same time, these three losses don't seem to be signs of any general slump. Flash is still dominating Proleague, and it's been a long time since anyone beat him in a boX series. That's why after the MSL elimination, I wanted him to make it out of the OSL group stage so badly. Even if he is dropping games, I still feel that the real test is in a bo3 or bo5 series. This is where his true strength lies, and if he got beaten straight up in a boX series by someone other than JD then it would definitely point towards his streak of dominance coming to an end. But now we don't even get to see that (barring an Afrotoss miracle) which means that it's all kind of up in the air. It's definitely worrying, but I don't think the haters can celebrate just yet...
Don't hate the player, hate the game

Nothing more to prove eh? I'm pretty sure he wants to get ahead of Nada in awards which he isn't even tied with him yet (1 more individual league for both him and Jaedong I believe to tie). He still has alot to prove its good he had 1 amazing year but Jaedong has been so good for what 2-3 years now? Would be nice to see if he can be as consistent at jaedong at being top.
