Actually its a sign of respect, as he says no one can copy TaeJa's or Maru's style. Or at least that his personal style leans more towards that of Innovation's.

After his 2nd GSL crown, he won 4 tournaments in 14 finals. It's actually mind blowing how frequently he grabs silver considering how many finals he is playing. He is no YellOw by any means, but he has more "silver medals" in premier events than anyone and by huge margin.
MC - 10 silvers JD, DRG - 5 silvers NaNiwa, Symbol, MKP - 4 silvers Mvp, MMA, Polt, Parting, MaNa, HyuN, San, Squirtle, Oz, Alicia, soO - 3 silvers

Hmm, if you read it that way, it might be a diss indeed .

HOLY CRAP TERRANS
sad that namshar didnt pull through against TLO

Bunny confirmed INno as a better role model than TaeJa.
Seriously though, Im very impressed with Bunny, that comback vs Sacsri was phenomenal. Sad for Namshar, losing to TLO in the way he did. Also. MMAcer on the rise again.

I won't believe it until he beats some top Koreans in a high stakes offline tournament, like maybe HyuN and StarDust or something.

Also I have an explanation for Bunny's recent successes available:
[17:24:19] Victor "Zealously" Lloyd: I don't know what you've fed Snute and Bunny [17:24:22] Victor "Zealously" Lloyd: but I'd like some [17:25:16] Victor Goossens: well snute drinks a lot of coke and bunny sometimes goes running does that h elp [17:25:38] Victor "Zealously" Lloyd: so drinking coke while running would maximise my chances? cool [17:25:47] Victor Goossens: i believe it would

I was about to say that Bunny is the first foreigner to win a premier tournament in forever but then I saw that TL lists Gfinity as a "Major" not "Premier" tournament. How come? It's a Tier 2 event with a $30,000 prize pool, that took place offline, it should be Premier.

What are the distinctive characteristics of TaeJa's playstyle?

i was asking this during Hyun vs Bunny G3 (before Bunny even won the final game), and people just said that cause of various reasons such as only 12 player tournament, and that its mostly an invite tournament (75% were simply invited into the tournament) etc

I can see that but if you compare it to other Major tournaments it doesn't really belong. Most "Major" tournaments have prize pools in the $5,000 - $15,000 range. No other Major tournament has a prize pool close to $30,000, and there are only two with prize pools above $20,000 in 2014: E-Sport SM and Fragbite Masters, and the former is only for Swedish players while the latter is an online tournament.
It's probably too late to retroactively change it anyway without seeming like you're just doing it to accomodate this record, so I'll just cut the Gordian Knot and say:
"Bunny is the FIRST foreigner EVER to win a tournament that awards WCS points!"
That's even more impressive than arbitrarily deciding whether a tournament is "Major" or "Premier"

well i wanted it to be known as a premier
but if u look at the number of players and invites well...i dont think any other premier tournament has 75% of a 12 player be invite only
all the premier with low players, are all players who qualified through qualifiers, not simply invited in
its not just about the money
