Sometimes I actually believe that Mvp's wrists are fine and it's all a carefully crafted story by IM to make people underestimate Mvp. I mean, it is believable, since his mechanics are not the strongest in the world, and have declined as of late, but god damn it, I find it pretty hard to believe that his wrists are that fucked up. He is so powerfulllll.
Like Tinkerbelle, I leave behind a sparkly residue.

Life 4-1 MVP

I predict we would have another bad GSLfinals, with Life banebusting or fast muta to victory and punishing MVP's greedy plays.

It is only now (before the finals) that I am certain MVP is SC2's bonjwa. And yes, I'm sticking with that term. His presence in a GSL is just so overwhelming. The proof:

Waxangel, Fionn, and just about everyone seem to grant that Life is the better player when looking at measurable factors. But deep down, everyone expects MVP to win. It's MVP. He is the bonjwa. And everyone knows that a Life victory is an upset. MVP doesn't crush or dominate opponents as much in the lower rounds as might be expected. But - even if he loses today - there is no one that can compare to his presence in SC2.

Life is incredibly versatile and Zerg is the most versatile race. He will give Mvp all he can handle, but I can't go as far as to say Life will beat him. Mvp may just have the perfect builds prepared.

I loved so much of this writeup.

I'm one of the people who is really looking forward to MVP setting a 5 GSL legacy. On the flip side of the coin, Life is really fun to watch play. He's like a zerg version of Gumiho and it feels like he has to be attacking or harassing something every few minutes or he'll go insane. There are probably better comparisons for him.

Anyway, gogo MVP! People bursting onto the scene happens every season. A legacy happens far less often to say the least.

Bonjwa was the word they called Savior.
Then it became somewhat of title and iloveoov, nada and boxer was awarded with the title.
And then they started bonjwa talks on Bisu and then on Jaedong. And 2 years later on Flash, who proves him self to be worthy the title.

It hasn't started as "just the word they called group of people who was better than others".
Everything is a remix.

Life is doing better than flash did when he first emerged on the scene of BW.

Life confirmed Bonjwa.

If he was a bonjwa, then there would be no qualifications. You just disproved your own assertion. *facepalm*

This is one of the best finals writeups you guys have done. Wax did a great job at capturing a bit of MVP's legacy and the way it's played out. Thanks a lot for the entertaining article!
