Fantastic article, a pleasure to read. Congrats stuchiu !

And to me, the player who comes the closest to Mvp is Life, by a good margin. He's to me the best player in the world skill-wise. The only thing he needs is to stop disappearing for 6 months between his periods of complete destruction.

I don't care what happens next year. In my heart there will only ever be one King. And though he's unlikely to ever return, to me he'll always be on the throne.
Long live the King of Wings

Because SC2 is a game where all-ins and blind counters are very common.

KeSPA also dispatched the players to Blizzcon just the day before they were supposed to play their respective games.

What we would be incredible would be if we had someone magically ascend like Life did back in 2012 from obscurity and proceed to claim this throne. That would be fucking epic.

Someone did magically ascend, in 2014. This one dude who got pretty regular play in Proleague, but had never even been in Code A before. He then won 1 GSL, made Top 4 in another, made Top 8 in yet another, and a few other pretty good achievements over the course of the year.


But not to become the equal of Mvp, which was the point.

The term bonjwa is meaningless in SC2.

They should be used to these strats because they used a ton on GSL finals : ]

Btw is funny how "it is the game fault" when they lose and "hhaha expected" when they win.
