Wrong, he WAS one of the best players in the world when he practised (in WC3). Not that crazy that some people hope its the same case for SC2. And I didnt see too many make that exact claim.

Definition to hype: "to intensify (advertising, promotion, or publicity) by ingenious or questionable claims, methods"
As soon as there is an upcoming player or otherwise promising (like Moon), its called a hype, because that player doesnt have results to back it up. This is so silly. If he would have results, he wouldnt be upcoming/promising anymore. And its not an "ingenious or questionable claim" that Moon will be good regarding his history.

Its so frustrating that every upcoming player gets thrown in the hype trash can.
(And may stay there forever, like when Stephano won IPL3, he was still overhyped according to many)

But Moon was never particularly great at Sc2. A lot of people claim Moon will be one of the worlds elite players with practice, I think that's a questionable claim for sure.

And Stephano is still overhyped. He hasn't won a Premier Tournament in 8 months (and he's only made one final in that time) and yet is constantly the favourite to win almost everything according to TL.

Wow. Poor coaching by Prime. Sending out not one, but two Terrans against Zerg with the 0% win rate so far? Should've sent out Creator.

Aside from the regrettable DC incident (in which MKP was not insurmountably behind btw), MKP did almost single handedly kill the entirety of ST lineup, even when he was behind and on the back foot against Bomber. He then also went on to all-kill ST in the KSL.

Don't get me wrong I like StarTale and I love some of the players on their team, but if they seriously want to be considered champion material they need to step it up and stop falling apart where it really matters and getting all-killed.
Prime was the better team then.

Now grow up and deal with it.

Can't believe Prime lost to a team like TSL. I just hope they win their next game! Gg to the TSL players anyway.

ehm... but hes top 8 in every single one of them???

and moon just beat MKP and Byul, after winning 3 in a row vs TSL last time "A lot of people claim Moon will be one of the worlds elite players with practice, I think that's a questionable claim for sure" how do you think this claim is questionable?

Guy would rape everything that isnt kespa if hed play 10h/day which he doesnt, at least play on par with the best 5. You dont have a wc3 background, i assume? Look at the foreigners, probably 22-25 of the best 30 have been wc3 players before. Just one of them was near Moon's level, all the others were little flys to him. He was the 5th race.
