Hyun, do away with this fan-favorite killer.... 4-0. Don't make it close.

What do people have against Sniper? (looking at the polls)

From the few games I watched Sniper seemed to be a better player than Hyun. Admittedly I havn't watched any of those fight club games.

Sniper has a knack for meeting fan favorites in tournaments and winning crushing all their fans' hopes and dreams

And does it all in the most generic and frustratingly solid ways possible.

Haha yes, he's actually not really hateable based on any real solid foundation. He's just a solid player who doesn't have an identifiable style, but who doesn't have the public personality to mitigate that. He doesn't even have the sort of extreme 'lack of a personality' that Curious used to be tagged with, that in itself formed a personality/image.

He's like, god I don't know a blank canvas of a player or something. The lack of anything identifiable to hate about the guy is even more frustrating, he's not like an anti-hero or anything. Well, apart from beating my beloved HerO.


he kinda reminds me of aLive. Except aLive complains about not being popular.

Not a bad effort man, but I still don't think anybody that I can think of is as like, vanilla as sniper. You mentioned that Alive complains about not being popular, that is literally more information about his personality than I know about Sniper. I also feel like Alive at least had like, some specifically good matchup and styles at his peak. He was really good vP and vT, and known for having good vT mech as well.

Sniper is just 'good'. It's not like how MVP is just good either, in that MVP has other things going on around him, even the wrist/injury narrative going down.


Mvp also has used a lot of different strats and made them popular, bunker wall off on Belshir/Cloud Kingdom, the weird bunker wall in on Entomed, mass ghosts vs zerg etc. Sniper just plays well and we don't know anything about his persoanlity, hard to get excited over him imo.

Aye, MVP is for my money the best all-round Starcraft 2 player thus far. It's a shame that, at least to me his wrists held him back to such a degree, I think in the absence of them you could be talking about the first SC2 b-word you know?

That he's still a high, high level player despite those injury issues also adds to the MVP story

IIRC the GSL Open S3 finals with MKP had him super favored.

Everyone was/is in love with MKP and MMA.

I like seeing the whole "Mvp anti-bonjwa" story because it makes his victories that much more significant.

He wasn't that liked when he was dominating over everyone in 20110 and 2011.
The fact that he fell from grace, the whole injury thing, and mainly his victory over Squirtle in a really hard way made him really popular.

He's like that old geant that broke his leg but he's still in it because he's smart and experienced.

I predicted jjakji and Polt to win their finals.

But I also predicted TOP to beat Mvp, so I think that kills everything.
