Imagine if they switched at the age of 18 which is impossible because there is no sc2 yet. But Flash is still young and By far he has been dominating for a long time. And he also has been number 1 on the kespa list for like 30months straight? | ||

Yup, and the crazy part is that he is still "young" in progamer years and has alot left to offer + time left when it comes to the military service and those stuff. Meanwhile many of the current BW stars are 3-4 years older than him and just don't have as much time left as Flash. | ||

Well I'm glad I can use this now: This is Boxer's power level:+ Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft/images/7/7d/BoxeR.png) This is Nada's power level: + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft/images/9/90/NaDa.png) And... THIS IS FLASH'S POWER LEVEL (note his power level did go down in 2011 due to his wrist problems but only temporarily): + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft/images/7/74/Flash.png) Flash's power level compared to others: + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft/images/thumb/8/84/Bonjwa2.png/640px-Bonjwa2.png) Flash keeps getting better while others get worse. | ||

Savior was the first one, it has nothing to do with the race~ "Bonjwa is a term used to describe a player who dominates the StarCraft scene for a long period of time. A bonjwa has a very high winning percentage and successive title wins. However, a bonjwa is not defined by his statistics or records. Rather, a general consensus is reached that he is the most dominant progamer of his era. " "In Starcraft, the name "bonjwa" was first used as a nickname for July, even though he was not "a" bonjwa. As a term to name a particularly dominant player, it was established during the sAviOr-era." http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft/Bonjwa | ||
