Definitely Leta. Even though he never performed all that well in the individual leagues, people keep calling him an "S-class" player. Although he is undisputably creative, I do not think that alone justifies putting Leta among the best.

However, I do not think Hyuk is overhyped. I just think that after being ridiculed for so long, people have still not gotten over the shock of Hyuk actually starting to perform decently well (especially considering that historically, most of the SKT1 Zergs have been mediocre players that remained mediocre for their entire careers) Obviously, he still has ways to go (especially with his ZvT) before he can be considered a top player, so very few people actually consider him a top player at this point in time.

Imo all of these are really overhyped, except for Effort. It's hard to chose one, but I'm gonna say Leta, because he is really good normaly, and should win most of his games, but so far he has been losing to almost everyone.

Hyuk+Skyhigh are really overhyped.

I voted for (Z)Hyuk, based on current hype, because he's a respectable player, but he has proven nothing yet.

In reverse order:
- (T)fantasy has played stunning starcraft, made two OSL finals, and one pseudo-final, and was huge for SKT1 in proleague finals. fantasy is the real deal, and has already proven it.
- (Z)EffOrt went 25-3 for a stretch last year, got third in GOM (which really didn't matter) and also came up huge for CJ in the proleague playoffs. EffOrt is absurdly strong right now, I can't even imagine how he would be overhyped. He's #7 in the PR after being sniped by Hyuk and rolling everyone else.
- (Z)ZerO is woefully underhyped, if it weren't for his ZvZ, he'd have been in a starleague semi-finals by now.
- (T)Leta is looking bad now, but he was the ACE match bonjwa last year, and looked very strong for a while.
- (T)sKyHigh really hasn't gotten that much hype recently, his WL All-kill was his peak so far.

Where are the protoss?
Where is Calm? Calm is the most overrated player in BW.

I voted Hyuk thinking of it in terms of who is the worst.

In reality I should have voted Fantasy because he's been considered the best terran by some and that's totally ludicrous. Also I don't like him.
