Again, I'm not saying that Life should be the champion instead of Bear, just that there should be 2 different champions, for now at least. And I think that MLG had nearly all of the best players of the world in the qualifiers, enough to declare a true "best in the world" at that point even before a GSL, while IEM didn't.

but then that would be the unofficial unofficial world champion

and if we were to start that, i would rather start with the first GSL champion rather than MLG or IEM or whatnot

Maybe Bear should get a prize if he goes undefeated as the unofficial world champion for the longest time?!

I always said that... either that or "super-unofficial", like in my last post.

Seriously, this is all just for fun, everyone, do you really have to take it so seriously?

You could just add a rule where if a player doesn't defend the title at least once every 2 months it defaults to the last person who had it.

not really. its pretty standard in any ranking that if you don't play, you will fall in the rankings.

Should totally award Bear with a picture and a medal in OP then. Everybody loves Bear.

if you take it away from Bear the whole point of this is ruined.

Just vacate the title if the player doesn't play in the next WCS season and give it to whoever wins it (according to Liquipedia Bear didn't)

The time label itself of two months is arbitrary, who's to say that 1 or 3 months isn't a more appropriate length of time?

i think if Bear isn't trying for the WCS this season, then its time to move on.

This isn't a rankings. If he never plays a live event again the title dies with him. To arbitrarily gift it to someone else defeats the whole point of this thread and breaks the chain. There's a decent chance he'll get a game at some point in SPL, just be patient.
