After the switch  TY was the best KeSPA terran if you did not know it he was seeded into Code S then he qualified to Code S by himself then in HotS he was slumping and now he is rising once again.

I guess it's going to depend what percentage of the viewership are ignorant enough to think PvZ is solved.

Edit: Times in OP would have been nice. ._.

I'm not saying TY is bad, I just think that he's being overhyped due to his (admittedly great) 7-0 streak in PL this season. I watched TY's prior games in Code S, Code A, etc, including in WoL and he looked solid but never like a "top 5 Terran" and no one was hyping him as such prior to this PL season. His record in the last PL was a not very impressive 26-26. Then he got 0-4ed by YongHwa (a notorious underperformer in individual leagues) in the Code A qualifiers.
If you look at his stats on Aligulac in HotS (offline matches against Koreans) he has a great win rate in TvZ (though not with many games played) and his TvT and TvP records are only slightly above 50%. By Aligulac's ranking of top Terrans, he's #14, behind (among others) SuperNova, Bbyong and the Danish player Bunny. I think #14 is about right for him, he's certainly top 20 Terrans but probably not top 10 to me, and definitely nowhere close to top 5.
I'm not a TY hater or anything, and if he proves me wrong and starts killing everyone, more power to him. But his level of play against RorO and CJ_herO in Race Wars are more of what I'm used to seeing from him: solid and strong but nothing spectacular.

When there is a lack of good players of any race people start rooting for every player who shows some kind of hope, in 2011 people were calling  Alicia as the protoss hope but he was not good enough to face best terrans back then coz the number of good terrans was much higher just like now the number of good just higher then the number of good which leads to dominance.

This is very true. 2011 had a lot of false "race hopes": I remember Artosis anointed SlayerS_Min the next Zerg bonjwa based on a single GSTL game, and then when Protoss were getting destroyed towards the end of 2011 (I remember a Code S RO16 with only 1 Protoss) Sage was supposed to be the savior...

HerO, Rain and Classic are in Germany.
Creator got 4 kills during regular season, the only protoss who got more was herO.

It is funny how people do not wonder why they have invited Soulkey who had worse stats then: RorO, ByuL, Shine, Rogue, Solar
