Flash is a little more iffy though, if he continues to fail in individual leagues he may lose his place as top Terran, if he hasn't lost it already.


I agree Flash isn't his old dominating self, but not top terran wtf? He went like 11-1 just a few weeks ago, and isn't he #1 in proleague or something? At least top 3...

I never said that Jaedong et al weren't on the top, I said that they wouldn't be on the top forever, and that it's a good time to look at who will be the next to rise to the top.

its PL, who the fuck cares about PL. The new players do im sure, and are practicing their asses of. The old guys dont give a shit. You're reading too much into 1 freakin game in a PL that doesnt mean shit.

@SuperArc:
@LumberJack:
Nonono, I just said Flash isn't a contender anymore. And that's just because I'm an antifan.

The other top players are still contenders, but a new generation of players will eventually succeed them and that's what this topic is about.

Seriously, my thoughts exactly. Those 3 vs anyone is very much in their favour. I can't comprehend what you were thinking when you made this thread.

Sorry about that Chill, I had a provocative and offtopic paragraph in the OP that confused people as to the purpose of this thread.

I've deleted that paragraph and added a clarification edit to clarify that this thread isn't stating that the top players aren't the top players, it's just stating that they won't be the top players forever and it's a thread for speculating about who might eventually succeed them.

ANTI CONFUSION EDIT:
I'm deleting a paragraph in the OP that probably contributed to the confusion.

I'm not saying that the top players aren't the top players cause they dropped a game in proleauge. They are still the top players. They won't be forever though, and this topic is about what will happen when they'll fall. It's not saying "they're falling, who will replace them." I'm not saying the top players are all falling now, I'm saying they'll eventually fall and people will eventually rise up to replace them and this topic is speculating over who those players might be.


I can't comprhend what you were thinking when you made that thread

I was thinking "lets start a discussion about which players are up and coming and may replace the greats down the road when they're not the top players anymore"

I just put an unnecessary paragraph in there by mistake, and everyone focused on that. I'm very sorry.

Flash-Bisu-JD remain the top contenders for starleague titles, now as they have over the last year. All have over 60% winrates in 2009, and JD/Bisu have OVER 70%. A couple recent losses doesn't change that.

I agree, and have changed the OP so that it doesn't appear to anyone to be going against this.

I think that if you look at his winrate and who he has beaten, he certainly isn't bad.
I also think that he's starting to develop a unique style that could be very powerful once he grows into it. In a year from now, or sooner, I'm expecting him to appear in a starleague top8.

Orion and TheZerg have been progamers forever. Orion is and always will be in a state of mediocrity and TheZerg is way to inconsistent to ever be anything more than a sniper.

Ok, so really your question is:
"Who is good (other than Flash, JD, Bisu)?"?
- OR -
"Who sucks / used to suck but will soon be good?"?

Chill: I'd phrase it as "who looks the most promising for the future."

The reason it excludes Flash/Jaedong/Bisu, is because you don't say about someone like them that "they show a lot of promise"

terran: skyhigh, baby (fantasy dont make it to my list b/c fantasy is oov's puppet
zerg: its too early to say "next generation". Jaedong, july, savior is still doing well in proleagues.
toss: tempest, horang2, But bisu and free is still doing well so.

Yeah, it truly is difficult with zerg, because the zerg is at their height, the next generation is far away.

Perhaps that is why the races alternate being on top, because their generations are spaced evenly.

I'd say for Protoss the players to look out for concerning winning a league are Kal and Free. Both have been known names for a while but never did much in leagues. But they both seem to be getting better and better

There is no real new talent besides Effort, Zero, Skyhigh, and fantasy.
