I've always felt that EGMachine has been really solid all throught his sc2 career(didn't follow his bw career).

He's fairly good but he's a chokemaster.

The most underrated player imo is Kawaiirice. He's never really in the conversation when it comes to top NA terrans, but has an absolutely sick TvZ, which at this point in time seems to be the most mechanically difficult matchups for terran. If he works on his other two matchups and gets them to the status his TvZ is at, he should be top tier.

I know Vibe has already been mentioned but I think he exemplifies what I see as a player on the rise. He just seems to have improved vastly in his game play. I think it is obvious to many that with his super high apm he has the potential mechanics to be a top player but his strategy and execution has really been lacking. After watching his progression in NASL all I can say is that I would be afraid to meet him in a tournament. If you haven't heard about this guy check him out, I really enjoy his stream, he is on Sixjax an up and coming team, and he has a creative style despite what you would expect from his ridiculous apm reputation.

Overhyped: Destiny
Underhyped: DRG. And he does get a lot of hype but because he is ranked poorly he isn't called the ZergoAwesome as he should be called.


actually, at the time of your posting, mOOnGLaDe wasn't mentioned once. But honestly, he's the most hyped SEA player out there, basically owns the scene, and still a KR Grandmaster while playing from Australia. That, and qualifying for IEM again, well, i'd like to see if he post up good results again.

Vibe was definitely underrated pre-NASL. But with all the attention he gets now, I don't really think anyone can consider him underrated. Same goes for majOr (underrated pre-MLG columbus, now not underrated anymore).

I am very, very sad that we won't see him at MLG Anaheim, but he's going to prove my point by winning GSL instead (go Huk!).


I tought about mentioning him.
Many consider him Top10-15 overall. But IMO he is Top3 (with MVP and Nestea). He just hadnt posted a big win.
He`s been #1 in ELO for a long time and his record is amazing. (51-16 and he only lost Bo3 against Nestea and Cezanne)

IMMVP. I dunno why nobody likes him. His fanclub is smaller than the ones for MKP and MMA even though he's better than them. His fanclub is the same size as Bomber's and Puma's even though he's more accomplished and been around longer.

How do you put MVP above MC at this point? I don't get why people exclude MC from top 3, he is undeniably best protoss and is the most successful player of all time.

I think Tester/sSKS/Trickster is underrated by a lot of people. He was a beta star, for sure, and has posted solid Code S results ever since.

It's hard to think of an underrated Terran or Zerg. Maybe it's just my player knowledge, but they all seem fairly hyped as of recent.

I was going to say him but he hasnt been doing well as of late. He is up and coming but not underratted.

I feel like ScFou is sort of underrated by foreigners, the guy is pretty talented.

Also, fucking Ryung man... The guy is overlooked by so many people because of the number of Terrans in SlayerS but the guy is easily comparable with MMA and more consistent than MMA right now.

lol mma beat ryung pretty convincingly in the GSL.


Yeah, but who is in the up/down and who is in Code B?

MMA hasn't shown consistency just yet, I feel like Ryung is a damn good player and has been pretty strong for a while now. There are arguments for both sides, but I don't see why Ryung gets overlooked so much, he doesn't even have a fan club.

I love MC and he is the best protoss and most successful player.
Both MC and MVP were struggling a bit lately. I just feel MVP is so solid all around and many other Korean pros mention him as the best player. He gets the slight edge over MC.

Me! Just kidding...
I feel like NaDa is better then most of the people think. The problem is that he has to struggle against his own achievements of BW-Times so people tend to demand to much from him.

If you watch MC's losses you'll notice his opponents always have a difficult time taking him down. I could see MC being an overrated player to some people. However, the guy is a tough opponent through and through and has the results to back it up. I honestly don't see MC falling off the radar anytime soon.
SC:BW has a higher skill ceiling than SC2? SC 64 is where it's at brah.
