NOONE underrates Innovation Oo
I think many people did. Last year was really bad for him. I think he just struggled with the meta. Many people wrote things like "INnoVation is so bad these days, he should just retire". But now he understands the game again. He shows that he's a beast. I think that he's one of the best, maybe the best Terran SC2 ever had. He had ups and downs, but he had in the last years very good results, in GSL or in Proleague. And his influence is so huge. I rember that ByuN said one time, that INnoVation is a big insparation for him. Any one knows where he said that? And I'm sure that EVERY Terran player from all skill levels can learn so many things from him. The reason why he's not as hyped as ByuN or some other pros is probably because his personality. He's always so extremly calm, showing not really much emotions :D Most people prefere pros who show emotions and have a big winning ceremony. Inno just smells his flowers without any reaction XD But thats's why I love him!
I'm just happy that he's back ^^ The machine will rise again :D Very excited for WCS 2017. It will be a great year for SC2 fans. Hopefully.

People tend to underrate him when he had a phase where he wasn't doing so well/slumping (although in that case I guess it's kinda warranted because he wasn't doing great for a while), especially this year he's gotten a lot of mean commentary. On the flip side, casters often ignore it when he's in a phase where he isn't doing great and talk about him the same they would if he was peak form INnoVation, robotic destroyer of all life. So I guess that makes up for it.

People love Maru and he shows even less emotion than Inno.
I mean sure people thought he wasn't a top terran this year, but that was largely true. He still has to make people realize that he is on point again, but in general Innovation has the champion calibre appeal

yeah he has definitely been the most influental terran since HotS. he has refined so many builds and strategies for his race that every other terran copied, it's hard to imagine in which spot terran would be if INnoVation wouldn't exist. In terms of achievements I'd say Mvp and maybe TaeJa are more succesful than him but none (except maybe Mvp) had a similar effect on the metagame as him.
You can put MVP next to Innovation (but ofc, there were so many GSLs during MVP prime, if there are as many GSL as 2010-2012, Innovation could have had at least 4 GSLs), however, Taeja's success is no way near Innovation, Taeja did not win any WCS.
I set the alarm on 05:59 this morning but I fucking overslept the game.... Damn 4-0 thats hardcore! Many times been angry on SKT1 and JAGW players, since I love Zest. But I like the hardcoreness in this win, sry about Stats he reached the final but didnt go through. Where it some good games?

Why is that? I love his stream, I recommand to everyone to watch his game against soO, he made a huge comeback earlier
Link here: www.twitch.tv go to 3h09min --> I don't know why we just see ''twitch tv" but if you click on it will bring you at the good game, not just on twitch, believe me.

Was that the game that was so stupidly close Inno watched the replay?
Yes sir
EDIT/
www.teamliquid.net GSL group are here. INnoVation got Losira, Forte and Byul, it's kinda funny to see him rated as TIer 4 player :D I hope he won't choke, this group is pretty doable for him, i'm hyped for his match against Byul.
its actually a much harder group than it would look like for most people.
byul is in top form again, losira has quietly been one of the best zergs in 2016 and forte is probably the rookie that improved the most throughout the year
still think inno should go through, byul is the biggest challenge tho. i hope he can beat him since he is one of the few players left that still have a positive record against inno
