These guys are all pretty promising, actually. I have an obvious bias towards Leta, but even among the rest of them, I don't think you can give them enough hype! I'm watching out particularly for Zero and Hyuk to grow into some pretty badass Zerg players.

I voted SkyHigh, but that's just because I felt like I had to vote for something.

Edit: wait a minute... By voting that someone is "overhyped"... doesn't that mean that the winner of this poll will have to be the LEAST hyped?

Speaking of which, it seems to me more like everyone hates Leta than that he's hyped up a lot.

I almost feel like people blame the players themselves for being hyped. Is Hyuk to blame when people get all excited over him winning a few games?
May the BeSt man win.

He's not the best, but he's by far the best Protoss on the scene these days. Most consistent definitely, and probably still Top 3 in terms of overall play. Crushed his way through his MSL win earlier this year and did the same in GOM Season 2. Yes, he might suck ass in OSL, but the guy plays some high quality games.

Skyhigh on the other hand is vastly overrated and isn't even that good. Inconsistent as hell and doesn't show up in Starleagues.

Bisu is not ''by far the best Protoss on the scene''. Stork is pretty damn close.

Yeah Bisu can play really really good but he tends to loose when it matters and that's his big problem. It's no point beeing one of the best in r32 if u suck in r16

I am more curious why 146 people voted for him.

I know he received some hype when he defeated Bisu with queens and was the first to use Infested Terran effectively.

But nobody called him Bonjwa or anything, and he is a very powerful player who simply suck at ZvZ.

As far as OVER-hype, I'd say Skyhigh or Hyuk. Third would be Leta. Skyhigh achieved more than Hyuk, however he was also hyped more. Hyuk was hyped the least, from my perspective, but he also achieved the least, so I wouldn't consider that as my 'overhype'.

Also, I wouldn't consider Fantasy or Zero to be overhyped at all.

If you don't even know who he is then how can you say that he's overhyped?

I'm not sure why Effort and Fantasy are on there. You can make an argument that Fantasy is overrated but they're definitely not overhyped because they generally perform very well both in individual leagues and in proleague. They definitely live up to their hype.

Leta is somewhat overhyped with all the bonjwa talk but he generally shows good results in proleague - people just seem to hate him for some reason thus are voting him for that reason, Hyuk isn't really overhyped because its simply the same people spewing the same rubbish over and over and no one really talks about Zero so he's probably underhyped if anything.

Really the best option is Skyhigh who simply performs poorly against zerg, with some of the worst medic marine control of any 'high level' player, and protoss despite people claiming how amazing he is. One good matchup doesn't make an ordinary player awesome.

Hyuk will destroy all in 2009, there is no hype there what-so-ever... just facts.

Leta & Skyhigh on the other hand... T_T

skyhigh is bad, but hes not that hyped to begin with (i think its because ppl realize hes bad lol)

hyuk is probly a better choice because i heard a lotta buzz about how he was like "the best player ever" and all that crap.

in reality, hes done nothing but zvz (does 20% zvt ring a bell?) and his other 2 matchups suck more than ppl like tazza and doctor k lol
