REMINDER!

This week will be the final week to vote! If you haven't registered yet, go for it! It's free and very simple!



NOTE: This was without a doubt, the most difficult thing I have ever translated. The language was far too advanced for my current level. As a result, it has tons of errors. Please, if you are more fluent in Korean than me, point out the errors I made. I desperately need someone to proof read this.

In commemoration of the conclusion of StarCraft Brood War, the eSports corporation will be establishing an 'e-Sports Hall of Fame'.

[image loading]


The 'e-sports Hall of Fame' will commemorate the many progamers who acquired many achievements and plant the players' honor and self-esteem along with enchancing their images in a hall that will uplift them.

The 'e-Sports Hall of Fame - StaCraft Brood War' will commence with the conclusion of the SKPlanet StarCraft ProLeague Season 2 and celebrate all the past BW tournaments in StarCraft history and illuminate the players who participated in them.

The screening of the Hall of Fame will induct the players in to the Hall of Fame and they will be presented with certificates and prizes. Furthermore, if the eSports stadium gets established, the Hall of Fame memorial will feature the gamers' past uniforms and mouses should they choose to donate them.

The Hall of Fame will feature three sections. The primary will be If a player won a second place or higher in any of the tournaments since 1999, or if they stayed within the top 10 ranking for ProLeague for 3 years, then they will be selected as a StarCraft Brood War candidate.

Of the 51 players candidates selected, the secondary fan voting will begin. Individually the candidates will be voted for by the fans. If a candidate recieves 60% of approval from the majority a third judgement will occur. The media and commentators will be the jury for who gets to make the 'Hall of Fame' or not.

The voting for these 51 candidates will commence from August 15th to September 9th. You can vote for these players at www.e-sports.or.kr. If you vote for the players, you will be entered in to a drawing for a chance to win a StarCraft2 WoL Package CD and tickets for the ProLeague grand finals.

They should have given BoxeR an instant invitation to the Hall of Fame after all he did for SC:BW but I think it's obvious that the bonjwas will be in the Hall for sure aswell as YellOw, Bisu, Stork etc.

List can't be complete without sAviOr. Sure you can judge him for what he's done, but he's still one of the best zergs in history of bw regardless.

Edit: Read the OP again and now I understand why Ma Bonjwa isn't mentioned, which is silly tho (imo).

bonjwas + whole kong line + any player decorated with gold more than once, are no-brainers.
There are many others who are remembered as the best of the best.

The problem starts with the players like Mind (yes, I know he have one gold) or Calm, who overperfored in individuals OR underperformed in PL.

There's a reason why Pete Rose is not in the Baseball Hall of Fame. Match fixers/cheaters lose all privileges they have as progamers/players both past and present.


which is still silly imo so I don't see the purpose of your reply

Hey, it's (Z)oGsTheWinD. Cool to see him in there.

And it's about time they made a museum for the old uniforms. They're too iconic to be forgotten.

It isn't silly when you realize the matchfixers have been permanently banned from KeSPA, just like Pete Rose has been from the MLB. This naturally includes a ban from any and all recognition that would be officially sanctioned by the respective organization.

Tell me something I didn't know already. Another useless reply.

Things such as hall of fames are/should be based on the capabilities of a player + achievements, regardless of what he did, he should still be up there.
They can try and enforce a ban from "any and all recognition" but there's a reason why people, including myself actually, still admire him as a player. So it's really just silly to suddenly say "oh wai- the guy did something bad so everything he's won in the past is suddenly just.. non-existant", it's just silly, nothing more nothing less. Though when I look at it from kespa's pov I sure can understand but that doesn't change my own opinion 'bout it.

This is awesome, I've been hoping someone does this for years. There is actually some kind of Video Game Hall of Fame organized by the competitive arcade community but for whatever reason they don't recognize Korean stuff.

Thinking there is any reason to even consider savior here is hilarious to the point of absurdity so can we just agree to not derail the thread too much with it? Let's argue about all the dudes who were really hot for one season then never did anything for the rest of their careers. Or guys like Sea who owned proleague but sucked in OSL.

Comparing players who've been hot for one season with Ma Bonjwa and denying what he was capable of + what he truly did achieve in bw is what's truly hilarious.

But please, do keep me entertained.

Haters, you've got to love them, especially when they try to deny that what cannot be denied.

And the smartass above me, I'm well aware I'm a part of the minority, so what?hmm? Trying to be smart and being smart are two separate things, and from what I've read coming from you so far, you belong to the category that tries to be smart, so please, don't waste my time.

Oh well, that was my last reply as I've got a feeling the haters are just gonna keep on coming, which is hilarious.
