Update: Forgot about this thread. As everyone who has watched Starleague Semi Final today, it has come to our attention that there is a curse called "The Rogue's Curse" in which whoever defeated Rogue in the Round of 8 would go on to lose in the Semi. So I went on a search on Wiki.teamliquid.net and found that the curse is indeed REAL. This year Rogue has made to the Round of 8 4 times in total (not including the GSL Season 3 Round of 8.) In all 4 times, a victim was found. Here is the list of the victims thus far:
S2SL Season 1: Stats GSL Season 1: herO GSL Season 2: Curious S2SL Season 3: Rain GSL Season 3: Maru
However, there is apparently a second part to this curse. If you take a look at the people who defeated the victims, you will find that they went on to win the tournament.
S2SL Season 1: Stats lost to Maru => Champion GSL Season 1: herO lost to Life => Champion GSL Season 2: Curious lost to Rain => Champion S2SL Season 3: Rain lost to herO => Champion GSL Season 3: Maru lost to InNoVation => Champion
It seems Rogue's Curse/Blessing only works in Korea.

Haha that is kinda cool :D
|
I had fun weeks ago on reddit betting Rain will lose to herO in SSL: https://www.reddit.com/r/starcraft/comments/3ilhyr/next_level_prediction_the_rogue_curse_w_spoilers/?
But if you look at other tournaments Rogue attended this year, it's crazy, because he cursed his opponent in kespa cup, leifen cup and gfinity too!
I like Maru but I think it would be ultra funny to have the story repeat in GSL and Blizcon!
EDIT: somewhat missunderstood op, the base curse was already mentioned, so now it's a benediction too

People asked him to do the Kong dance and the person who got 2nd place said it was an honor to be beaten and to have Kong get a 1st place for once.

So the guy that beats Rogue in the Ro8 has the Rogue Curse, and the guy beating the cursed one has the Rogue Blessing. Interesting

Nice! One more reason to root for ByuL. Though rooting against herO is so hard to do.

The Yellow curse is the second best curse of all time.
|
some people don't have enough to think about
|
On a related note, Rogue getting Ro8 in 5 of 6 korean leagues this year is pretty insane. Funny that he never got any further
|
OP missed two:
KeSPA cup Season 1: MyuNgSiK won 3-2 over Rogue in Ro16, lost to Byul 3-1 in the Ro8
ALSO!!!!!! Last year in IEM World Campionship Life beat Rogue in the Ro16 and lost to Taeja in the Ro8

I searched for Bisu OSL curse but I have not found it And now I gave up, because I am hungry and on my way to buy me some food (and they say I do not have feelings... I feel hunger! )

And the Yellow one is that he never won anything and finished second(except the one example of TV show mentioned here)?

Well, herO won. It seems the curse is very real. Gotta bet all my money on Inno. The next GSL champion.
