I think his point is that "legend" carries a different meaning for anyone who has played an RTS game besides SC2. The game hasn't even been out long enough for someone to be called a legend by conventional definitions. Not really. The term 'legend' is somewhat subjective. But, from my standpoint, I see both of these players as legends based on there domination of the Korean scene and other top level players for the past year +.... | ||

Excluding the few early knock outs that don't seem to happen anymore. Also, you don't have to win your first title at 15 to be a legend. MVP/Nestea are dominating just as hard as BW legends did if not harder, and they too were humans with slumps. in sc2 there are a large number of players with 70% win rate in their matchups, whereas in bw there is only 1 guy literally. this shows that bw talent pool is much larger and more regular. sc2 has mostly lemmings and a few outlier good players. | ||

My two roommates who play no starcraft both know who MVP is, and the success he has had. Its a good indication that these guys have made an impact. | ||

Really? Who? I checked, theres few to none. Even if there was several, they don't dominate at the level nestea/mvp do. | ||

Hope they both come to providence and wreck faces. doubt it since the only reason they stay in korea is because they're always fucking winning the GSL. + Show Spoiler + IMEGMVP? | ||

smart - it gives them market saturation but I have to wonder at what point do these investments start to pay off less and less? I mean, the ROI curve isn't linear, and I have to imagine they've hit the plateau point by now, at least for the foreign market. | ||
