Bah I have to root for someone from Prime. Guess Maru has to be a 2 time WCS champ.

If he wins another championship, we can start calling him a bonjwa?


maybe when he wins 5


Well, you need to consider that there were 8 GSLs in 2011 when MVP got his three championships. And there are only 3 (GSL + OSL) in 2013. So MVP's 4 GSL achievement is equal to today's 2 GSL/OSL achievement.


I was just going to laugh at you but seeing as you're probably serious I'll treat your terrible suggestion seriously.

This is such a canadian statement.

I'm sure Mr Chae is hoping for a Maru vs Soulkey finals, it would be great to have the two winners of the previous seasons square off in the finals. On the other hand we could have Dear vs Soo, which would be a PR disaster =/

I expect a strong performance from Maru. I think his performance in the Season 2 global finals was an anomaly. Perhaps because he is young and hasn't travelled much before, I think he's more likely to be influenced by environmental factors and plays better at home than "away". I wouldn't be surprised if he wins this season, only to bomb in the global finals again.

Dear is really really good. Aside from that genius manner nexus strat he really looked good in he last few months.
Genius is that funny scientist who no one takes seriously until he kills you with a flame throwing trumpet. - stuchiu 2013

I don't agree with this statement. I think that he's a bonjwa in the making because he had the tenacity to improve his game after he had been 'figured out' a while ago and then rise tot he top again. Those kinds of characteristics are evident in anyone who has GODLY potential at SC2 -- which is a really hard game to play and that's why I think it matters that he was able to climb up the ranks again and put himself in a situation where he might be in the finals -- he's so young!! He has some great things destined for him!

I think you misunderstood me. I said that his (subpar) performance in the global finals (in Europe) was an anomaly, not his performance winning the GSL.
