Ah yes, the mech which is indistinguishable from marine/tank. Classic.

Huuuge maxed 2/2 roach hydra could overwhelm the poorly upgrades army of Major

This is so very weird by Major. I can't follow the thought process.

I'm trying to remember the last time I saw a real mech game.... I think it was WoL, before the zerg era

Let's get real here, Hive is finishing way before Major is half done 2-2. Very poor situation for the mech player. Vipers will be sickeningly good.

If he'd beaten Classic, I was prepared to say it. I'm waiting for a tournament win of any kind, because the nickname soOjwa is just too good Well, it's pretty obvious that the title of bonjwa is different for SC2 than it was for Brood War, due to the great diversity and consistency of major tournaments around the world. If you wanna look at ones across the history of the game, you look at Mvp, MC, Nestea, MMA, probably Taeja, maybe sOs, and maybe one or two others. sOs for taking second in a Season final, going cold for 6 months, winning 200k and then going cold again? The only people I would consider are Mvp and MAYBE Nestea and taeja. The reason I include him is because someone else mentioned him as a bonjwa on Startalk - might've actually been Taeja, I'm checking at the moment.
Bonjwa status is not something that has to be given. If anyone had to have the title it would be Mvp, but there are multiple problems with that because of the multitude of tournaments (WoL had more Premier tournments than the 10 years of BW), relvancy of foreign lans, his own lack of dominance (Even when he was winning in 2012/2013 I'd argue he was technically at best a top 30 player. He was just smarter and more clutch than the rest)
