Would not put my money on it. Plowing through Code S for one season is one thing, but simultaneously also plowing through PL shows real substance. | ||

That's true, but at the same time Puzzle also did very well in online tournaments (RIP) and pretty decently in GSTL as well. Anyway, I'm not really ragging on Puzzle here, but Protoss has had a lot of players who performed well for a little while, got hyped as if they were the best player in the world and then proceeded to disappoint for months on end. Other players here would include Sage, Alicia, Tassadar, Oz, Brown, Parting, YongHwa, First etc. Of course, some of them have recently managed to break out in very convincing fashion (but they still did experience a pretty long "slump"), while others have long since fallen to the wayside. :/ | ||

The rest somehow performed well here and there (mostly GSTL) and got enormous unjustified hype: -Sage: played one aggressive, Bisu-ish game on TDA and disappeared -Alicia: a truly solid toss at his peak but nothing more, came with the SlayerS hype, faded with its scandal -Oz: use to have geat PvP iirc. he sucks at it now dont know why -Tassadar: 4gate allin w/e -Brown: up & coming, fluke into a code S and disappear (hes coming back though) -YongHwa: mediocre as hell but somehow Artosis got his back. Code A Ro36 material -First: decent Code A protoss. He has the potential to break out though -Puzzle: almost the same as Alicia, got wiped out of Code S at his peak (by Bomber iirc) | ||

If you're only looking at GSL, then sure. But if you consider the big picture, Alicia got 2nd in NASL, MLG and MLG Arena; First got Top 4 and also 2nd at MLG, 2nd and 1st place at IEM; YongHwa got 2nd at HomeStory Cup, Top 4 IEM, 1st at WCG Korea and a few all-kills... They're really good now, but they've been hyped ever since 2011 and failed to deliver for a long time. | ||

Alicia's hype in 2011 was from the Super Tournament; I don't think YongHwa or First really got any hype in 2011. | ||
