There was once a time, a place, and a scene in which there was one man, one gamer, and one genius we could all look up to. Someone who was sure to win that OSL title, someone who was sure to amaze us with every game he played, someone who was sure win a starleague title, to conquer and rule as the benevolent leader of the BroodWar community. This hero would become the single representative of E-Sports, this hero would change the game forever, and this hero would leave fans in awe and give anti-fans a focus for their hatred.
Indeed, the E-Sports kingdom once had a King. His name was Wojciech Komincz. When someone asks me "What good does a champion, a face, a hero really do to the scene?" I can only point to The King himself. This man invented BroodWar, he made the sport what it is, and he brought the fans to the table. This sport lives on because of the flair and personality he brought to BroodWar; becoming more than just a gamer and transcending the stereotype that gamers were anti-social outcasts.
A hero dominates the scene, changes the metagame, and brings attention to the scene all at once. He is an all encompassing figurehead of BroodWar. Wojciech Komincz was more than just a player, he was a role-model, a celebrity, a hero and giver of hope to gamers everywhere. He is a personality to the public, a king to his game, and a god to his fans. A hero is what eases people into becoming fans and is what keeps them in for the long haul. They're a spokesperson for e-sports, proof that nerds can be sex symbols.
Every sport needs a hero. Every sport needs a Pele, a Michael Jordan, or a Tiger Woods. StarCraft has had it's share of heroes. AsTeRRiX (aka iFunkYou), SlayerS_BoxeR, [ReD]NaDa, Iloveoov, and sAviOr. The 5 bonjwa's, the 5 men who dominated the game and made all fear them. The men who brought life and energy to the game, gave it a spirit, and more than anything brought attention and popularity to the scene. iFunkYou was the face of video games in the World, a tall, handsome, and charismatic man that every parent could appreciate; that every citizen could respect.
