Cool thread but it's sad to see there hasn't been a dominant world champion yet in SC2, and by dominant I mean someone like Kasparov of chess or Federer of tennis who dominated the tournament scene for years.

Well given that a best-of-1 match can change the UWC I don't think this is really the intention anyhow.

Snute defeats HerO in DreamHack Bucharest 2014

That's the last time this trophy was held by a foreigner.

Cool idea!
But how will you continue this, if someone gets champion and quits being pro immediately after that?

Bear was UWC at the end of WoL. The trophy was passed on to the first major winner in HotS (Life iirc).

No what happened was they counted Bear's participation in Code A qualifiers (even though not televised) so it passed to the person who beat him in Code A qualifiers (Panic). If a person completely retires while UWC probably the sanest thing to do is to just revert it to the previous holder, since the champion would have kind of "resigned" their championship.

i do recall that now.. wasn't there also a subset that just started over with HotS but they ended up unifying eventually? either way the question comes up all the time and there isn't a definite answer. generally shouldn't be worried about since few players retire after winning..

I think it's a good time to start up the ULC: Unofficial LotV Championship. Obviously, Solar is the first champion.

Somebody should have told parting that he was fighting for this crucial title, he may have not thrown the finals so hard.

Why start over? Impact is the champion, he's still on SKT, and even if he doesn't come out for SPL we'll at least see him in Code A qualifiers next year. It's been going without interruption for 5 years and it didn't restart for HotS, so why restart it for LotV?

I agree.. keep it as it is. Half the fun is watching it make its way up Code A
