Lol Artosis, really? This guy is so obsessed with hyping people seriously. How can an old school BW player call Nestea the Bonjwa if he wins another GSL?

Got to agree here, I'm a little confused by the whole thing. You know what would make someone a bonjwa at this time? Someone who would win something ridiculous like 4 gsls in a row WHILE knocking out Nestea each time (who is head and shoulders above the rest of the competition a lot of the times). I mean that's pretty much what it took for flash to be crowned the last bonjwa (That and also doing something no one including nada has done before which is to win dual starleagues at the same time). It's an accomplishment to even take a game off flash. And it's felt like that for about a YEAR now. Nestea has "only" won two gsls back to back in the span of what, 3 months? Of course, his last win is his most convincing argument that he's headed towards that direction...100% win rate and a 4-0 domination (not only in games, but in strategy, mentality, skill, EVERYTHING i.e. flash like) over the second best zerg in the world (Still...his zvz's not that great)....If Nestea keeps this up for the next year then yes... he will be the first sc2 b.

Also, Nestea needs to prove himself against mma, MVP, and other monster terrans. Another ingredient of bonjwahood is doing something extraordinary in the current times i.e. Overcoming unbelievablely imbalanced maps against a race that doesn't seem like it should lose ala Savior (Not that terrans or maps are imba atm)


Your idea of what constitutes a bonjwa is is ridiculously overblown.


As someone who watched Flash during his dominance and saw the community reaction to it, he's actually completely accurate for what it took for people to realize he was a bonjwa. He was in every final, mostly against jaedong, beating him every time except for the power outage series, and yet people were still wary until he won two starleagues (people were even saying that until he did this (which no other bonjwa besides NaDa managed) he couldn't be bonjwa). He was in six finals of six in the 09-10 season, won four, and carried his team to a proleague final.

That's what it takes.

No, it's not . People were hesitant to even give Jaedong bonjwa status EVER and look at how dominant he was for so long. It's really not a good term to use for someone who is dominating unless they are the michael jordan or the babe ruth of starcraft.


According to that post, a bonjwa must do something "extraordinary" like overcome imbalance. How have all five bonjwas overcome imbalance or done something equally extraordinary?
As long as people believe in absurdities they will continue to commit atrocities.

Joking aside, Artosis is right. The fan base of popular people like Day9, Destiny, Husky, etc can get out of hand sometimes.
