Proleague might give Roro a chance to build up a good number of defenses. No one has been able to get more than 5 for a while

I feel like Roro will lose it really fast since proleague is bo1 and no one has an insane winning streak so far in sc2 proleague.

Even though it was decided to not count showmatches i still decided to make the changes just to see What the list would look like.
(P)

White-Ra defeats (T)

IdrA @ ASUS ROG Stars Invite
(T)

SjoW defeats (P)

White-Ra @ DreamHack Winter 2011
(Z)

Violet defeats (T)

SjoW @ MLG PrO Circuit 2012 – Winter Arena
(T)

MarineKing defeats (Z)

Violet @ MLG PrO Circuit 2012 – Winter Arena
And then it returns to the original list.

If we were to go with Roxor9999's new list, some of the trivia would be ruined!

White-Ra is the only IPL Champion has never been Unofficial World Champion.
White-Ra and Snute are the only HomeStory Cup winners who have never been Unofficial World Champion.
While none of the IEM Season V events' Champions won Unofficial World Champion, every winner of Season VI and Season VII were Unofficial World Champion with exception of viOLet.

Hell, for that reason alone, it might be worth changing the list to include showmatches. Get more tournament champions the title of Unofficial World Champion.

It would be hilarious if the UWC title got randomly stuck in proleague for a bit. ^_^

Do HotS-beta (GSTL) matches count? Might get stuck on someone like TOP (or Eve

) forever.

It would be funny but I think the poll winner was that people wanted to just continue it from the WoL UWC when the switch happens

Grats to Roro, if he wins this GSL does that make him the unofficial world champion of WoL forever? Presuming he never loses in proleague.

It's possible that he will be the last WoL Unofficial World Champ. I believe it was voted a few pages ago to continue on the world champ lineage with the person that was the last WoL UWC so RorO would still be defending champ once the HoTS switch happens

I was wondering when the unofficial world champ title would eventually go to a KeSPA player. I am very interested to see where this goes from here with the KeSPA/ESF dynamic.

KeSPA players have held the title twice before already.

Rain took it in WCS Asia and

Soulkey took it when he defeated Life in GSL S5
