(Vote): soO

(Vote): other



I disagree with Life and Roro being in there. It's Soulkey, Symbol and Soo.


Hyun > sOo

Why do people seem to dont like neither soO or hyvaa ? They are finally seeing some result in starcraft 2, is it because the other guys are too popular ? They haven't been playing perfect, but hey, they are playing in the hardest league in the world, they can't beat everyone, i dont get why there is so little credit to their improvement.


Frankly (and this is definitely my bias shining through) but neither of them are top 3 zerg because they are incomplete players. hyvaa's mid-lategame is extremely lacking and soO doesn't dominate the lower competition enough.


IMO Hyun isn't a good candidate either, maybe if you look at short-term performance, but in the long run I can hardly imagine him doing something big. He plays a lot, wins a lot but also loses a fair amount even against mediocre opponents. But most importantly he doesn't seem to have flair, which hinders his ability to reach great heights. He looks good against decent opponents but has never looked really threatening against the cream of the crop.


I don't think Hyun is a top 3 zerg. I don't think there is a top 3 to be argued besides Soulkey being the best. Zerg players are going through the classic period of instability during the beginning of a new SC game. It takes a long time for them to figure out how to discern and react appropriately to the new meta.

Have to disagree, HyuN has been playing very consistently against the cream of the crop recently. He performed solidly in MLG and narrowly lost to Polt, defeated LucifroN in the RSL Ro8 and fared well against some of the best Koreans in the IEM Shanghai Korean qualifiers. Occasionally he loses in an upset, but these are almost always in the early rounds of online tournaments or in ATC where Quantic is basically eliminated.


Right, Hyun is not only in great shape, but also fairly stilistic with his viper usage e.g. The reason he doesn´t get as much attention is because he doesn´t play in proleague four times a week.

But that's exactly the point. He does well and does it often, but he also plays a lot. Sure he can perform on an even footing with Code-S class players (he was/is Code-S class after all), but he's never stood out as the zerg to watch out for. Like Life, Leenock, DRG, Soulkey, Nestea, Stephano - even Losira to some extent - each had their own time. His best period was probably around IPL5 when he went up against Sniper, but that season was wacky from the get-go and a lot of his hype came from the IPL Fight Clubs which was really like "oh cool this guy has had an insane run, let's hope he caps it with a big win" than "how can you even beat him when he's on".

My point is that despite his good records and competitive skill, he's never had the scary aura that other top zergs had. Maybe it's just that the stars didn't align for him or it's the way his playstyle looks, maybe he's really lacking something. TBH I don't watch enough of him (and of SC2 in general) to know, but it's the impression on a casual fan like me. Though to be honest none of the zerg stars look good at the moment except for Soulkey, so he might just make the list because of it.

Not misinformed. he was contemplating it but decided against it after getting whatever was ailing him straightened out.

Hmm what's up with the GOMTV.net logo hiding the supply counts in the top right corner in the VODs?
Is there a way to remove it or something?
