I guess you have to win 6 GSL titles then... lol

It's not all about the titles won... it's about the aura of pure invincibility... It's about people almost turning off the match when you play because they know the outcome. It's pure and utter dominance for a very long period of time.

MVP has won a good amount of championships but is rarely not the underdog, every one goes in doubting he will win, that is NOT a Bonjwa. Still fucking amazing and can be considered the best player in the world atm but not a Bonjwa.

No, 8 GSL and a few more MLGs and stuff, then I would call him bonjwa.


When he won 2 GSLs, people said 5 and we'll talk.

When he's gonna win 5, people say 8 and we'll talk.

When he wins 8, people will say 15 and we'll talk.

It'll never end, either you accept him or you don't.

Fuck whatever term you want to label him as

He is, disputably:

Seed was supposed to win because he was the current GSL champion. MarineKing was supposed to win because he had more GSL experience. Taeja was supposed to win since he was the better player and the hotter player at the moment. But of course Mvp is the better and "smarter" player so he will win now. Seems like people will never learn that tired old cliches do not apply to outliers.

The two players in the finals are the opposite of your normal Joe Schmo players. Mvp continues to win despite having the odds stacked against him. He was supposed to be a declining relic of the old guard who would be gradually worn out by physical injury. Similarly Life was not supposed to be here. He was too young, too inexperienced, didn't have the discipline under pressure, and simply not good enough. But they've proved all us forum experts wrong, haven't they?

The finals will come down to execution and mindgames. Neither age nor history or any other dumb stereotypes matter; the players in the booth never believed in them in the first place. It only matters who is the better player today.

This post is so true.

-.- I'll say it again(Refer to my previous post on this page) It's not ALL about the titles.... being a Bonjwa is more then winning titles, it's about pure and complete dominance over the scene for a very long time! Championships can be a good way of measuring this. But it's not the only requirement. MVP is easily the most accomplished and probably best player in Sc2 history. But he is not a Bonjwa, He does not have the aura of invincibility to him, you don't know before the match he is 99.99% going to win. He is usually the under dog, kind of a reverse Bonjwa of sorts....

Edit On topic: Go MVP Get dat title!!! Smash those puny alien zergs :D

Agree, perhaps bonjwa term is a bit loosely applied, but damn, why are so many TLers these incredibly fussy individuals who argue about every definition and term. Man, hundreds of posts on what is an all-in or not, a few thousand about bonjwa, don't get me started on that silly thing about whether calling someone a jew is racist or not...

Let's just celebrate that MVP is the most accomplished player in SC2 right now. If people want to get excited and call him a bonjwa, don't be that guy going "well technically you can't really call him a bonjwa..." Does anyone ever like that guy? Ever?

Anyway great game. Potential Royal Roader vs Establishment Elite. Let's see who wins!

It seems like people don't know the meaning of a " bonjwa ".
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=226236

Bonjwa is not the number of titles you have won.

It means to be untouchable against the highest level of competition and utterly dominating against them.

It was meant for Savior when he utterly smashed the best Terrans(iloveoov,Boxer Nada) on map heavily favors Terran when the rest of zergs failed horribly.
He shown complete domination during the era of 2005-2007.
To boast an aura of invincibility is what it means to be a bonjwa.

Honestly speaking,MVP is the most successful player of all-time in SC2.
But he is not untouchable and he can bleed.

Very nice writeup, I agree.

All agreed bonjwas had a period of utter domination over a longer time.
