Okay... that (Z)EffOrt thing still makes no sense. Even if a rookie plays well, he should still be considered a rookie. *sighs* Otherwie none of the names will be anything big if you cut all the good rookies off.

I pretty much used the guidelines that gtr said execpt i went a few months before 2008 for the players first games, and also if i thought that a few players like effort are already good players and considered not rookies

Hmm okay, well Effort would probably have steamrolled the poll anyway.

A better question might be "who are the rising stars of 2008"? It's not as simple as it might seem and 2008's been a long year.

The zerg poll is irrelevant. Any performance by any rookie will be out-shined by (Z)maGma.

(Z)by.hero

I really don't know by.hero was not in the poll but the new legend killer took out boxer to make it to ro32 in GOM and made it through both offlines prelims this season. He qualified for MSL, but has a tough OSL path having to face Ruby zvt and Bisu zvp he will almost surely get knocked out. However, I do think he will show some skill in proleague and make his mark in the individual leagues this year.

Terror
Tazza
SaiR

These are few of the ones I've actually seen playing, not too impressed right now but I do believe they all have a fair shot at something, especially Terror.

I'm I the only one who thinks that Skyhigh is overhyped?

I think the new hope for terran is definitely Leta.
