I think these high expactations are also part of the reason why he sometimes fails under pressure, especially since he is on a foreigner team so it's not just the entire foreigner community hyping him but also a lot of pressure from the korean fans as a lot of them think of joining a foreign team as selling out. Hero won against jjakji, which is impressive and thats about him. And can we pls stop changing the "best player in the world" after every 2nd pro game? | ||

But fans thrive on passion, and this kind of stuff is not too surprising by now. I do wonder how far Hero could go at his full potential, but I do not think he is capable of dominating the scene like a Nestea or a MVP. | ||

If he can't get over the fact that people think he's a good player, he'd probably never be that player anyway. | ||

Is there something wrong with wanting him to do well? | ||

No but it is certainly annoying when people start calling him the best protoss in the world when he can't even break through Code A. (Not saying that's necessarily happening now, but that has been a huge detail in Hero's history) Personally I love the guy, he's got an awesome style, but I also try to be real about what he is, and right now thats nothing more than a low to mid level Code A protoss. Maybe he'll get better, maybe he won't, but he hasn't (yet) | ||

There's always an army of people who simply refuse to acknowledge someone's skill until they see medals listed next to his name. The same sort of people who claimed MMA and DRG were overrated and overhyped Code B teamleaguers who couldn't hold a candle to MVP/Nestea/MC for like 8 months. Such is the way of the world. | ||

That's the scariest thing about the korean scene, for every sick as shit player in the GSL, there's 10 more just as good who aren't recognised yet. | ||
