No. God, I forgot MarineKing, and no, I'm not biased. It was meant in a funny way, but whatever. Oh, and yea, MarineKing ist a favourite, but I dont see him in the finals

A Bonjwa traditionally was someone who one 3 titles in the space of a year. Furthermore, if you ever watched a bonjwa play, he would play revolutionarily well, nobody would come close. Savior and iloveoov would humiliate their opponents, read some Final Edits to get an idea of this.
There is no one close to this in Starcraft 2, and I wouldn't expect it, game is too volatile at the moment.
Go MMA!

Does it annoy anyone else that you can see exactly what is happening before they mention it? I feel like just muting it.
EDIT: Maybe I'm just spoiled from, tastosis.

WHAT?!... no.. that's crazy. The common denominator between bonjwas is the ability to DOMINATE for extended periods of time in the highest level of competition. And by extended periods, I mean many months or even years.
Boxer, Flash, iloveoov, savior, nada, all have had moments in their pro-gamer career in which they totally dominated the scene. No one has achieved this in SC2 yet. Nestea is probably closest, but he's not there yet.

Man SuperNova is like more aggressive than qxc.

I'd hardly call this an upset.. It's definitely an upset. MMA is the legend killer, and he has defeated players such as MVP (in Bo1, but still). SuperNoVa is a pretty terrible TvT player based off what we've seen before today, he got completely crushed by Polt (who is good at TvT, don't get me wrong) and being overall unimpressive in the match-up. Actually Polt has a really bad TvT, by far his worst matchup. Which is why I thought Supernova had a really bad TvT. Looks like I could be very wrong though :o It's not really bad, he defeated SlayerS_BoxeR when TvT was BoxeR's best MU. He lost narrowly to Jinro and was overall pretty good.
If I recall Jinro actually destroyed him, if you're referring to GSL March in the group stages. (Apologies if they actually played a series prior to this I just don't recall atm)
Polt's TvT winrate is in the negatives. His other matchups are solid statistically.

there are only 2 things certain in gsl:
1.foxer will not win 2. fruitdealer will lose
other than that nestea has been consistent, but been cutting it ultra close against a person who has not been really favoured, so there's no clear sign of dominance yet

MMA too slow to lift his Raxes?

Why not? He's been in more finals in everyone else. Still looking strong.
