I voted Sea because next to Boxer and Nada, he is probably my favourite player out there. He has great mechanics, and above all, has a lot of charisma, and it sucks to see him being knocked out repeatedly in the first rounds of every individual league. If there is something I want to see in 2009 (apart from Savior destroying everyone) it would be Sea stepping up to claim what is rightfully his - an OSL title.

Yum Bo Sung fighting!

Flash is only on that list because the expectations of him are way too high due to his insane success at such a young age.

I voted Sea. Despite being an obviously very skilled player, he has failed to accomplish anything, ever.

TBH I don't get the purpose of putting Sea in this poll and I have mixed feelings about poll itself.
Is this supposed to help him that he fails anyone's expectations? How the 1st programer to do a TL Attack and even spend half a night doing it is there?

Have I missed some of his lost games or what? Even if so... what the hell? Did he gave up on progaming to be put there??

Definitely Sea. I would say that Flash is still up there like 2nd after Jaedong.

Sea hasn't done crap and didn't even show off his TL shirt yet. D:

Luxury
- Not in the MSL
- Eliminated from Ro16 in OSL
- ProLeague currently doing well
- I would expect him to be in the MSL at least and should really be in Ro8 at least in the OSL

Bisu
- Still in MSL
- Lost to Stork in Ro8 @ OSL
- Still in Gom classic
- Completing 2/3 task is not a bad thing

Mind
- Not in MSL
- Lost to Fantasy in Ro8 @ OSL
- Still in Gom classic I believe
- He was a one time champion thing; I started to lose faith in him after several seasons so I kind of expected this poor performance

Flash
- Still in MSL
- Lost to GGPlay in Ro8 @ OSL is disappointing
- Still in GOM
- Expected him to be in the finals

Much
- Out of both individual leagues
- Disappointed he lost to FBH but expected him to lose in the group of death @ OSL
- I never expected him to go past Ro8 ever so he actually outperformed in my eyes

Sea
- This guy never gets past Ro8 huh?
- He's the kind of guy that I expect to finally make it to the top ranks

So out of Luxury, Flash and Sea.. I believe Sea is failing to meet expectations.
Luxury is doing well right now and should be able to bounce back in the next season.
Flash is still making it far.
Sea is not going anywhere still.

Where's Savior?
Recently, Flash has probably been the one that've failed living up to expectations the most. And that's because he's usually a very strong player.
Sea on the other hand is a player that noone really expects to do well, so he's not really a suitable alternative. Well, I guess that's because he's failed to live up to expectations so many times one wouldn't trust him to do well anywhere but PL, so he might be a good pick anyway...

Sea, definitely. After that, probably Bisu (although he's been showing promise lately, but I'm still not convinced), then Flash.

Sea without a doubt. Although FlaSh is a close second. But then again, Flash's expectations are uber high. Still gives him no excuse to give such disappointing games. 14CC everygame? Please...
