It still surprises me how he failed to make Code S. He's secretly been one of the best Zergs in the world, but it seems like this community really only views foreign tournament results and don't study Starcraft. Hyun/DRG style is the superior style, but it is so much easier to rush for the unkillable BL/Infestor army and win that way. Go download a Hyun replay. He has games with 450 apm and 230 epm-- only a couple Zergs in the world even come close to these numbers (DRG, Stephano). It's very hard to tell who the good Zergs are nowadays, but Hyun is the real deal. Once the whole afk drone behind queens to BL infestor craze dies down, through metagame shift or patch, we will see more clearly which Zergs stay at the top from their mechanics. I suspect, DRG, Hyun, Stephano, and a handful of Kespa Zergs. | ||

It's obvious that HyuN is basically unbeatable in a Bo9 against Protoss and Terrans. Really, sending a top-tier Zerg is the only way to beat HyuN I think. Curious or Symbol would be interesting to see I think. Also, Coach Lee got his revenge on aLive :p | ||

I suspect, DRG, Hyun, Stephano, and a handful of Kespa Zergs. Stephano's mechanics are not that good, and he admitted it several times in the past. The patch zerg gameplay is already dying out in Korea. But yes, Hyun has always been improving ever since he first joined TSL. Once he learns to adjust to the GSL format he will be a consistent Code S player.

Symbol in general has been looking a bit weak in the ZvZ matchup while Hyun has been getting more and more consistent. You need an online warrior to defeat an online warrior. | ||

Anyway Hyun is a monster, the thing is, is has no offline achievement AT ALL. He seems to be rolling over everyone but as soon as he faces a good opponent and there's a lot on the line that's not the same story... see WCS qualifiers against Polt. So a lot of APM, a great display of skill, but not to be compared with Leenocks, DRGs, or Stephanos. Btw I think the Hyun/DRG style (a lot of banelings) relies on a mystake from the terran while the late game play is much more about skill from both sides. And the late game broodlord/queens/infestor army is not likely in many maps, just cause it's too slow. | ||
