The Gods of Starcraft 2 - Part 2 IMMvP

The most accomplished player to date since the release of Starcraft 2 will definitely go to another legend from clan Incredible Miracles (IM), MvP. Jeong Jong Hyeon (IMMvP)'s gold medals is an envy to every other professional SC2 gamers out there. Having won 3 GSLs, World Cyber Games, MLG, a silver GSL medal and having the highest price earnings to date which stood at $255, 790 easily makes MVP the best Starcraft 2 player to date. The Terran God, has proved himself over and over again by winning tournament after tournament from the Korean Global Starcraft League (GSL) to International tournaments such as the Major Gaming League (MLG).



Nicknamed the Game Genie Terran, MVP comes from a Broodwar background. Although not the most accomplish and impressive gamer during his previous gaming career, when compared to the S Class players such as Jaedong, Flash and Bisu, MVP has shown his hunger for success and victory. His Brood War background has set to be a very important factory in his success in SC2. His total record during the Brood War days was only 39.47% or 30-46. This is probably a joke for many. However, Brood War is considered one of the hardest online game has to offered during it's days due to the game's mechanics unlike SC2. For example, gamers can only set 12 units in a hotkey and workers can't be rallied to mineral lines. Thus, every action has to be taken with care and precision. Not to mention keeping up with your macro while microing during multiple engagement fronts. This require a player to have insane amount of apm to play the game at the highest competitive stage.  

Known for his strong macro style and mechanics, no other Starcraft 2 player can emulate the legend in
terms of consistency. Always the favourite to win any tournament he enters, MVP never fails to satisfy the lust of his fans by pulling wins after wins against some of the best players around the world, including oGsMC, IMNestea, DongRaeGu, Polt and the list never ends.Although MVP does not always provide the most entertaining games in the world, the legend will definitely satisfy the fans by overwhelming and overpowering his opponents through solid plays and macro style.


To date MVP has a very respective 114-53 (68.26%) total collective record. This is easily one of the most solid player SC2 has to offer. Taking out teammate and rival IMNestea over and over again in the Korean GSL's has proven how fearsome this Terran God can be. MvP has knocked out Nestea countless times and it seems that Nestea has yet to be able to take out his team mate until this day. However, MVP does has a weakness. The answer to slaying a God lies in the hand of the Legend Killer, Slayers_MMA. MMA from the legendary Broodwar player and the Father of esports, SlayersBoxer is the only player out there that can take down the Goliath. During their previous engagement, MMA always triumph in the end when being pitted against IMMvP. Is it a curse or MMA has figured out MVP's playstyle and has MVP by his neck everytime they meet? Who knows.

IMMvP is probably the first player in Starcraft 2 gaming history to date that can carry the title Bonjwa. For those of you who are not familiar with this term, Bonjwa is a term used by the Koreans to title a player for his domination of an era. Broodwar legends such as Boxer, Nada, Jaedong and Flash has each been awarded this glory during their peaks. Although the game itself has only been officially released less than 18 months, IMMvP has shown the most impressive results to date. However, a longer period of time will be required to determine if MVP fits to carry the most prestigious title in SC history. If the Terran God repeats his success in 2011, MVP will truely be the first ever Bonjwa in Starcraft 2 history.
