TY, Rogue, and INnoVation (by far) are the players that have dominated the "best player in the world" conversation for 2017.


Alright, Inno I get, but to say TY and Rogue have dominated is just wrong. Stats has had a better year than either of them.

I'm not talking about who is actually the best. I'm talking about who the community has been claiming is the best. There is a difference.

Stats has a pretty legitimate claim for being the best player of 2017. His consistency across the whole year has been incredible. Inno probably has the best claim simply because he's won so many more trophies than everyone else, but whereas people loved to talk about TY at the beginning of the year and love to talk about Rogue now, Stats barely gets any attention despite having a better claim than either of them.

Hype isn't always tied to skill. Inno has tons of hype and skill, ByuN has more hype than skill, and Stats has more skill than hype.


TY is as overhyped as ByuN imo. He's been unimpressive (certainly not bad by any means but nothing exceptional) in the last six months yet people still consider him one of the very best. He's been on a slow upswing though, so maybe he do well at Blizzcon.

Don't you think 6 months is a bit much? Who can really say of themselves they were impressive for the entirety of the last 6 months? herO had 3 good tournaments and many weak performances in-between over 6 months. GuMiho hasn't had a single decent offline run since he won GSL. TY had his usual Ro8s in GSL, a top 4 at IEM and 2nd at GSL vs the World, but also didn't qualify for the Super Tournament, etc.

I do think people tend to overhype players, and TY has been one of them this year certainly(probably in due part because Artosis loves him so much), but I also think that TY's position in the food chain hasn't actually varied much this year. Kind of like how Stats has been the best Protoss in the world practically all year, TY has been the 2nd best Korean Terran practically all year. And being the 2nd best Korean Terran puts you pretty far up the food chain.

Fun fact about Stats also, he's arguably the most consistent player of 2017, but if you just got his winrates since his Code S win, you'd think he's a B-teamer.

I'm saying that he hasn't been particularly impressive at any point over the last six months, not that he needs to be impressive over a six month period. Even his good runs are punctuated by losses where he looks hopeless. I don't think he's bad, just not the championship contender that people seem to think he is.


The same would be said about Stats and Innovation right before their recent titles though. They both were in the same bag as TY for the most part (massive wins earlier in the year, average to reasonably high finishes since). All of them have had embarassing losses (ST for example), but they also have lot of ro8/4/final appearances. By any standard they're clear championship contenders, along with Dark and Rogue.

Assuming you define a "championship contender" the same way, someone that wouldn't be a shock if they won the event. TY having beaten all of the top (8 minus herO?) in premier tournaments in the last 6 months puts him up there.
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs
