I didn't watch BW, but isn't that Bisu dude a bonjwa? He's so handsome.

An amazing player, but never a bonjwa, even Jaedong wasn't considered one and he arguably had a higher and longer peak period than Bisu.

I honestly think given how jangbi played in the OSLs he could have done it if brood war continued.

I like MVP and stuff, but he's really not the kind of korean that make effort to communicate and be appreciated by foreign fans.
He does what he has to do to win and that's basicly all. :<


This is totally not true, he used to stream a couple months back and he would talk in the chat, and make a channel on NA and play 4v4 with fans.

Yeah, I actually got to play a game on his team vs Nestea's team. Was a lot of fun, and he was very friendly talking to us all.


Must be so nice living in Australia with such a small time difference...

Yeah a bit Jelly

Haha, it's nice when it comes to Korean player streams and the GSL/WCS Korea etc. But MLG's and Dreamhacks, and even this IEM, are at not optimal times for me. I just get to stay up at the moment because I've temporarily changed shifts. ;p

Hard to be a bonjwa when you can't do shit in the OSL.

I feel like they are being a bit harsh on Vortix for that base choice.

As soon as he get broodlords out he can control that high ground to both siege up MVP's fourth and completely control the path through to his fifth.

He just kind of botched the big ultra attack and that let MVP get good position before he was ready.

bwhahahaha, you complaining about them being too harsh on Vortix?

im terran but i dont consider him a bonjwa yet, I would rather wait until he achieves something so huge that no other player can come close to overshadowing him.


By the time Hots comes out he'll be the best player who played Wings Of Liberty Sc2 .

I'm glad mvp beat this utterly medicore Zerg. That said, I think Nerchio has a very good chance of 3-0ing mvp. If mvp struggled vs Vortix, he's going to have a very bad time vs Nerchio.

I thought it was that if he got surgery he wouldn't be able to play for a month or two and is scared his skill would decrease.

Agreed. Stayed relevant ever since the first GSL, and has the most wins in the most prestigious Sc2 league.

Yeah, that's what hurts the most. It isn't something with an easy fix, so the chances of seeing him play completely unhindered in the future are unfortunately quite low.

No! You have to sit here and LR the downtime! *Cracks whip*

And while you're at it, update Liquipedia! Mush, mush!


Commercial vs. Audience Downtime Game 1:

1:00- omg im bluffing im bluffing im soooo bluffing!

2:00- Some guy with a beard stands up. Wish there were RPS matches again.

3:00- Signs vs. more silly commercials!

4:00- Nerchio looks pensive. Probably wetting himself.

5:00- Mvp wins everything!

It is harsh, but it shows how much more experience MVP has in the late game. Vortix appear to be used to just winning after one or two pushes and he is not used to a terran who is so good with the end game economy. Plus MVP never lets up with that drop harass. If he had taken another base, he would not have allowed such an easy push for MVP and would not have had to commit to to a losing engagement.

I wonder if Nerchio has the mental fortitude to beat Mvp in a finals ignoring all other factors

Mvp just does not lose in finals, the only finals he ever lost was to MMA.
