He might be the best player but I don't think he's at the level of domination yet, he still loses to somewhat "random" players (even if they are Code S). Maybe after a few more months since it's been barely a year.

If only there were a lot of zergs in GSL instead of terran lol, it's unfortunate that Nestea's ZvZ is so good even though there's been so few zergs, even now there aren't that many.


1. Stop responding to "bonjwa?" posts because they're fucking stupid.
2. Flash loses to randoms too. In starleagues even. So while I don't think there should be any SC2 "bonjwa" discussion, your argument sucks anyway.

NesTea lost to BBoong 2-0... :/


Nobody finishes first for everything. Even Flash during his "dominant" era's finished 2nd in a couple of tournaments besides his golds.

He has so many major tournament wins, 8 golds and 3 silvers is pretty damn impressive.

http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Mvp_(player)

MVP has a 70% win ratio for International + Korean tournament games counted, with a total of 216-217 games. I think this is by far the best ratio per game numbers out of anyone (actually, Stephano's is pretty impressive, though you'd have to admit there is a difference in the players they have played against).


It's close to a year now, and if he wins MLG Providence then I will have no doubt he is the first.... Though I suppose some people will want him to dominate for longer than a year before calling him in the "b" word.


Yeah Flash's "dominance" was kind of shabby. I mean out of the 6 major tournaments in Korea that year he only won 4 while getting 2 silvers... for a sc2 player to reach Flash's status in bw he would have to win a shitload of tournaments in a row.

Still MVP is the favorite in Providence while being the most dominant player currently. Nevertheless, he still needs to show solid performances for a while until he can be considered a bonjwa.

Koreans coming out in force.

NA mustering every player they've got.

MLG did an amazing job courting the Koreans and getting them to participate in this. They somehow have to manage the same for the Europeans. More incentives, more rewards, something.

I glance at the top 5 non-Korean players in the TLPD sidebar and am sad that no one is there at MLG.

Because that's his nationality.

That's only the notables. There are over 230 NA players signed up. :D Most are just unknown Master players instead of known pros.

Are people honestly comparing MVP to... Flash?

MVP can't even lick Oov/Nada/Boxer's shoes in terms of their true dominance, regardless of their current level in SC2. Let me give you a hint. Bonjwas are decided when everyone collectively agrees that the person is bonjwa, regardless of stats. Or else Jaedong, JulyZerg, and tons of other players would have achieved "bonjwa" status already, but they have not.
BW Forever. Flash is the Ultimate Bonjwa.

1. You just did o.o. I'll do what I want, thanks.
2. No, because in BW winning is much more consistent, while in SC2 winning is less consistent but those who win win a LOT more than the 60-70% ish that bonjwas have in BW.

I like how you argue, and then say that someone else's argument sucks. He lost in that Starleague after he got bonjwa status, so that doesn't count.

Of course, all these numbers don't mean much since everyone looks at them differently, for example who they play against, taking stats only from certain tournies ("important" ones), etc.
