Hmm i've been thinking.
Why havent anyone changed name to chuck norris?
Technically everyone who would face him would just drop out coz he's awesome and cant be defeated, and if you kill one of his units, he will roundhouse kick you in the head

Polt is my favorite to win the whole thing but I really hope that Jinro can prove that he is still improving.

@masterkiller: He's not really in my list of the best Zerg players because of his inconsistency. Throw Korean players at him and he loses fairly consistently. He fell hard to MarineKing and MC at HSC IV. Don't get me wrong; he's a very talented player and he can get results, but I cannot consider him the best. He's not even top 5 at the moment. DongRaeGu, Leenock, NesTea, and Curious. I am actually not sure who I would put in the fifth slot; that's a tough one.
