Please just leave, your trolling/ignorance is not appreciated.


Um hero is really not? Unless by top, you mean top 15...


Top 15? Are you kidding? He's easily right behind Genius/MC/Creator/Parting


Yeah i was exaggerating. Maybe more top 10.

But puzzle/mc/creator/parting/genius/jyp/brown/oz/killer/alicia/huk all have had better results in the GSL than hero. Of course hero is a better player than some of them so top 10 makes more sense to me now.

Would be a pretty big upset if he doesn't. I know he hates TvP though, to the extent that occasionally he swaps sides and streams as Toss heh (he's not bad at all, beats KR GM players with it sometimes)

Korea has got so many great players, even to this point unknown ones, and yes HerO is up there.
qualifiying for CodeA and staying there, having an insane winrate on KR Ladder etc. Who is above him apart from
(let´s assume they are sooo much superior) CodeS players? That´s right, no one.

Ladder means nothing and "top protoss" starts for me with Code S. if you call people "top" in ok so its right I guess, but wrong in the definition of me (:

I think you are forgetting puzzle and maybe sage :p

Sage is so over-hyped. He's good, but he's barely good enough to clean HerO's shoes.

Yes, he is ?

You obviously haven't been following the GSL. You are forgiven.

He isn't even in Code S, nor was he any season before


He's very close to Code S at this point, and has been known to have nerve issues in the past (if you follow him). No one said Hero was the best protoss in the world at the moment, but it's quite ridiculous to say that he's not in the top 8 in the world. Only a biased person would say something like Top 15 or Top 20.

And yes, being top 8 means "one of the top protoss".

Yes but JYP has a better record in the GSL even if you included the loss. Why do so many people fixate on single matches and ignore the overall records?

when HerO is on, he is one of the best players in the world, period. overall though, I would say he is Top 5-7 Protoss. seriously though, sometimes he shows flashes of straight up genius and i think he has potential to be a top 3.

Yep, same here.

Code S is the NBA to me, while Code A is college. Foreigners are high school.

If you aren't in Code S you aren't "top"

don't forget Alicia (been in a slump recently) and Inca (love that man's DTs).
Hero just hasn't really proven himself against the best that the GSL has to offer so far other than a win against Jakjti when he played some really odd games in IPL Fight club I think.

Btw, who's been performing better? JYP or Hero?

Then your definition of "top" is flawed and you might rethink that. There are great players even outside of Code S, who would have thunk it.

Hero has the most insane mechanics that it wouldn't surprise me if he's soon in code s and above all those protosses you earlier listed as better than him. I'd put him in top5 as it is now but his potential is insane as long as he can manage his nervousness in tournaments.
