I don't think the artosis curse is actually real, but Bomber's law is.

Just looking at this thread is that it's time for Bomber's law to apply. The hype is almost at maximum level. It´s like an apocalyptic prophecy about to happen. The question is not if bomber's law will happen, but when.

After careful consideration, I have devised a formula that decides the magnitude of a blessing or curse for a Korean Starcraft II player (for a foreign player, their chances of winning are divided by 3 because foreigners tend to suck

So we get a formula of

NPT / (B-T)

+ Show Spoiler +

Number of blessings given (alternatively number of curses given): N
Power of curse/blessing: P
Length of time (days) since last curse/blessing cast upon a player: T
The player's tendency to self-implode or show off until he dies (See Bomber or Taeja): S
Amount of players not cursed/blessed remaining in the tournament: B (likely a Boring player)


In Bomber's case, with maths behind me, I think it's safe to say that he's going to against Rain



He's going to what against Rain? I need to know man, using these calculations for my liquibets.

Hot_Bid was preemptively congratulating Snute on winning after he took 3 games in a row, then HuK won 3 in a row and TT1 made that post about the Hot_Bid Jinx, then Snute pulled it off and won.

Maybe it's not going to happen yet, he will win this OSL and go onto the grand final riding high on a wave. Everyone think's he's unbeatable, he even improves his TvZ to the point that you can't tell which matchup is his best. He carves a path straight to the final without even looking like he's going to lose a game. He goes into the final against hyvaa and easily goes up 3-0, in game 4 it looks like it's going to be a clean sweep, he's in hyvaa's natural killing everything, his marines are dancing, the manner mules start dropping, then he starts spamming stim on his marines and they all die to banelings as there are too many mules in the way for them to split, somehow hyvaa comes back to win that game.

What then follows are some of the worst executed 6pools and 1 base baneling and roach builds that we've ever seen and somehow Bomber keeps dying to them. In the final game hyvaa goes for an overpool into 11 drone rush and Bomber accidently cancels the depot in his walloff and mismicros his SCV's to lose.

well when it comes to curses. If you mix two curses they usually go wild and create a new more chaotic curse. But since it is Bombers law, there should be no direct interaction between those 2 phenomena.

The curse though gets stronger the more convinced Artosis is. The law is always in effect after Bomber played well and acts independent on any curse. But the law does work based on Bombers play. The curse itself affects the targeted player and makes them play bad.
So we might have already missed Bombers Law several times actually. Simply because his opponent played so bad because of the Artosis curse, that no one noticed the law working.
So as long as Artosis curses every second opponent of Bomber, the law will jump into effect, but the curse will make the opponent just play worse. Afterwards the law is unimportant for the next game as Bomber already played bad.

The disappointment part of the law cannot work currently, because everyone is expecting this and thus there will not be disappointment.

Curses have one thing to them though, they are fueled by superstition. The moment you accept them as the truth you don't give them energy anymore. The Artosis curse might be on his last moments this seasons. I would say the moment Artosis gets doubts and thinks it might be true, then the curse will fall inactive.


Fun fact: The more the people belief in the Artosis curse, the weaker it gets. People believing in the Artosis curse to be stronger then Bombers Law will trigger the disappointment part of the law.
The wheels of fate are turning again, thanks to this thread.

Bomber won an MLG.

Thus bomber's law is not true.

But, the Artosis curse is less true because NesTea won three GSLs and if anyone rooted for NesTea it was Artosis.

Therefore Bomber's law is stronger.

So has Huk and MarineKing. MLG is not a barometer of whether or not curses are real.

This is no curse! Bomber's Law should always apply, and at a tournament like MLG with lots of rounds for him to blow up on the fact that he made it to win one would prove this law to be less rigid than "law" might imply.

Sorry to say, but Bomber losing to Life and Sora is the beginning of the end.
If you don't like it, you can quit.

It was proved in some earlier GSLs that Artosis Curse is stronger than Fionn's.

Who the hell is Fionn?

Not so much as Hot_Bid's Jinx as much as it is Hot_Bid's Scare.
