He'll probably have a breakout this time knowing my luck, but he's really not DONE anything yet other than show some occasionally amazing micro. Looking forward to this group anyway, no Protoss so I can't get annoyed at SCV pulls so much  | ||

If people were like 'gosh his fanboys are fucking annoying' I'd be fine with that. but you see the more fanboys you have, the more antifans you will have, and thus the more often you get called overrated by those antifans (or just anti-fanboys if you get me) being called overrated is not for actual skill or accomplishment, it's when hype > results. often hero does get hyped more than his results. maru gets very little hype - he doesn't play in many tournaments and is on one of the poorest teams. he probably get an appropriate amount of hype considering what he is capable of e.g. allkilling startale lol | ||

Nevertheless, these are the days when I'm super glad every match in GSL is bo3 and not bo1. | ||

If you want to argue like that, Flash is without a doubt the best player in this group by a million times, because man did he own in Broodwar. HerO is a fantastic player, but his GSL Ro8 and Ro4 are in thepast. Right now he's not shining bright, while not being completely out of it. I'd also say MVP is a fantastic player, but I'd not call him favorite of any Code S group right now, because he won lots of stuff (actually tons of) in the past. People right now are just judging Marus current form and are excited to see him play. | ||

That said I do like his play, am interested to see what he pulls out of the bag tonight, he can beat anybody when he's on song | ||
