This is a great read, I've been following Chris since a mutual High School friend told the rest of us he went pro at SC2. None of us believed him at first, (Chris was quite the character at our school. He was very athletic, playing football running track not your first candidate for pro-gamer however his dedication seems to have stayed the same.) but we were all huddled around the computer screen waiting for the HuK liquipedia page to open and there he was, in a Galt Ghosts hoodie.

He's come a long way since then and I've enjoyed watching it all, staying up till 6AM EST to watch Code S regardless of his performance its always fun watching someone you know play. His liquipedia entry is a lot longer now, and the picture has him in an EG jersey. I still cheer for Liquid when they're not facing Chris as I've grown accustomed to the team and community.

However I can't say I don't like the move to EG, I've always been an IdrA fan as well and having my two favourite players, who were once rivals on the same team makes everything a whole lot easier.

Keep up the good work Chris, and keep Fighting Liquid.

What a fantastic way to start my day.

I had the honor of meeting Huk at the TL meetup in Cologne and he asked me if I thought he'd be able to keep his fanbase after moving to EG. I told him that leaving TL broke a lot of hearts, but the way he plays and the way he is shouldn't be affected by the color of his jersey, and we'd stick with him for that. [TL needs a smiling smiley with a tear to insert here]

He also told me I shouldn't be buying him drinks because he's rich now.

Great post, I still think of HuK as a product of Liquid and just wish beyond all hope (and reason) that he sports the fantastic liquid pony once again.

Holy shit great write up.
The Huk situation is the first SC2 situation that reminds me of the great BW storylines like Boxer vs Oov.
This gives me hope that maybe, despite whatever I think can make SC2 better, just maybe SC2 can become the greatest Esport ever.

Hot_Bid, absolutely amazing write up.

I am really happy for HuK and all of his success that he has had, and I really hope that he continues to perform well wherever he is… I do miss him on Liquid though. ;D At the Orlando finals I cheered for him and all, but because his farewell was so recent it seemed strange to see him around all of the EG people, and not the Liquid players like Tyler, Jinro, TLO, etc, like at Dreamhack.

Best of luck to HuK in the future, still a fan c: c: c:
Great blog post 5/5

Read every word, nice write-up Ken.

I remember MLG DC very vividly last year - I had the priviledge of being in the room while the SOTG cast immediately after idra's victory was held. I was absolutely starstruck by Idra, Incontrol, Machine, Tyler... but I had very little clue who Chris was. Up until that point, I honestly wasn't too into the SC2 scene. Heck, the guys I mentioned above I knew because of BW, not SC2. But even though I barely knew anything about him, you could tell nearly instantly that he was DEDICATED to what he was doing - moreso than anyone else in the room (and that says alot given his company at the time).

Insanely hard worker and a real showman, I'll always love Huk. Like many here, I can't say I was especially thrilled about the EG move, and I rofled when I read your line about wishing he lost - I've done the same myself. But you can only try to hold onto those feelings for so long, eventually you let them go and just cheer for a damn good player.

<3 Chris.

Whenever I watch Huk play in a major tournament, I have no idea what I feel. I feel like a teenage girl totally confused on whether I love him or hate him. It's a strange feeling haha. Truth is probably somewhere in between.
