He's a bit like Polt in that way, rides the wave of glory and sucks everything positive in.
The article mentioned how he often comebacks, I think this is somewhat more what defines him. There's always struggle, but he just so happens to peservere and even when behind often gets the better read of the rest of the series between him and his opponent. Even the very "One-sided" sOs series, the Master of Mindgames sOs, gets such a mental edge over herO, but even then he doesn't let it get to him, as much as any other player would. Even in the third game he STILL doesn't scout the proxy position, he even happens to get the read that sOs with his approach to the series in such an aggressive manner, would follow up with 4gate Blink Stalker allin and gets the counter build with fast DT's in. herO was on the way of one of the often seen comebacks, only sOs changed the approach completely mindgaming the mindgame and taking back the flow of the series in a way that only sOs can.

HerO is third I hate you.
And Aligulac.
Try as I might though, I can't dislike herO. Hope he does well at Blizzcon.

When I came back to SC2 a year ago and started following the scene again after about a year break. I found herO and I was furious, whats with this guy stealing the name of HerO?! I totally dislikes herO for almost half a year.
He started growing on me, slowly at first with his play and then came the sOs vs herO match, I was cheering for sOs mostly just to watch the fake herO lose. How I laughed when I saw the proxies but at the last game my smile got stuck in my throat because the face of herO in defeat didn't make me happy like I thought it would. The situation, the proxies the defeat I pitied herO then. Then he lost and I saw the aftermath and what came after? A smiling herO, he walked out of there and, he smiled and he partied and that spirit, that sheer strength of heart blew me away.
That day through his defeat and the way he handled it he made me a fan, he really is like the sun.
I still remember so many idiots who predicted herO would lose his smile with the loss of that final. herO never loses his smile and its purely genuine as well

On that note I feel CJ embodies perfectly herO's personality and vice-versa

That day through his defeat and the way he handled it he made me a fan, he really is like the sun. I never hated herO, I was neutral not knowing him much (I didn't watch the broadcast from IEMs he won, just saw news). But I did think about him as "fake herO" at first too, since I didn't really expect a high level player with the same nickname at the same time.
But then, I went to IEM World Championship and saw that guy on stage and I can tell you that he really radiates that positive energy. The crowd was happy every time he showed up and the more the crowd cheered for him, the more he was having fun and giving more happiness back. And of course, seeing his mastery of Blink Stalkers against HyuN was amazing. It was the time when I just switched race being a bit bored with Protoss and he made me enjoy that race again (to watch at least). That one event made me a fan of him, he's my favourite proplayer now.

I'm not even sure he's favored at all. Polt will probably lose to Classic. And yes herO has a very good chance of winning it all. I would say more than 50%. Zest, Taeja are the next contenders.

Taeja has to beat soO first.

Seriously.. I bet 10€ that this guy wins Blizzcon. He will finally do it. He is one of the best players in this world, playing fantastically for months and years.. The only thing he lacks is a big championship! I bet he is training right now like hell to show the world what's in him!
Edit: The article consists of so many "smiles".. herO is skill-wise top5 in this world, playing consistently and showing awesome results, would it be Proleague-style matches or international tournaments. He is a smiling assassin, yeah, but he is more an assassin than a smiling person. Everyone who is going to face herO will be in fear, because he is an awesome player, and he is training like hell for this tournament I imagine. I am going to cheer for this guy as hell, and I think his determination and concentration will not fail him. He is no Dear, definitely not, he is with Zest one of the best Protosses in this world. Different than Classic or Rain, he has shown us in 2014 that you can always count on him - and on his consistency.
