HyuN Fan Club

HyuN is a former BW player who played for MBCGame Hero before switching over to SC2 in November 2011. Though a solid A-teamer, he rarely reached success as he was overshadowed by many others during his time in BW. However, he gained a little infamy by snapping Flash's 12 game TvZ streak. When he first came over to SC2 he stated that he would qualify for the first Code A of 2012, attaining Masters league within one month of playing. He would successfully do this by defeating Weekend in the 2012 GSL Season 1 preliminaries. He would then go on to lose to TaeJa in the Ro48 and fall down to Code B. HyuN was able to qualify for Code A a second time where he defeated FXOChoya in the preliminaries to go back up to Code A for Season 3 of the 2012 GSL.

Since mid-2012, HyuN has really come into his own as one of the top Zergs in Korea. He participated in a near uncountable amount of online tournaments and showed great potential in all of them, displaying his incredible mechanics, map awareness and engagement skill. In Season 3 he almost made Code S but lost to Genius in the Ro24 and coming third in his U/D groups. HyuN managed to qualify for Code S Season 5 when he won his U/D group in dominating fashion.

During the attempts at a GSL Code S spot, HyuN rose to infamy as the King of Fighters by taking out Squirtle 5-3 at the Protoss player's peak in IPL Fight Club. HyuN would play through week after week of tough opponents like GuMiho, PartinG, Tear, ByuN and in particular, Life, who was the undisputed best Zerg. This 14 week streak became immortalized in StarCraft 2 history as perhaps the greatest run in any King of the Hill tournament, and is still considered one of the greatest and memorable accomplishments in the game.

HyuN started slowly in Season 5 and just managed to get out of his Ro32 group. He progressed through the Ro16, and went on to face the freshly minted runner-up to WCS 2012 Creator, and defeated him 3-1. INoVation was next on HyuN's list, as HyuN disposed of him 3-1 handily. The stage was set in Las Vegas within IPL4 against Sniper, but ended up ultimately losing 3-4 in a hotly contested series. Simultaneously, HyuN would drop in the Ro16 against DRG in IPL4 and just a week later lost to SortOf in a massive upset in NASL Season 4 despite dominating the group stages. Despite all this, HyuN played on, but never reached the level of play he showed before, losing in the Ro32 twice in a row in GSL. After the dissolution of TSL, HyuN joined Quantic Gaming, where HyuN began his resurgence.

Perhaps HyuN realized Korea was not his ideal environment, or saw how the foreign scene was better pickings, HyuN traveled frequently to DreamHack in an attempt to regain his lost form. In 2013, HyuN came into HotS ready to play, reaching the Ro8 in Stockholm but lost in the Ro8. Next in DreamHack Summer, he lost to StarDust, who became the eventual champion. As HyuN attempted his second try at a tournament win in 2013, he would cruise through MLG Anaheim easily and nearly seal the win against Polt, but a Hellion run-by sealed his chances at winning the desired championship in the final match. Within a month in Valencia, Spain, HyuN decided to stop being a Kong and not become the first Triple Crown Kong. His numerous attempts at DreamHack often ended in a loss in the Ro8, but this time HyuN went to the finals dispatching LucifroN 2-0 in the Ro16 and defeating ZvZ extraordinaire Jaedong 3-1 in the finals, securing himself his first championship.

After it was revealed that Quantic's manager Simon had not given HyuN his $23,000 in prize earnings, including his victory in DreamHack amongst other dubious and corrupt deeds, the possibility of retirement loomed over his head. HyuN's good friends, Golden, TaeJa, San and others all organized a series of showmatches to rally the community to HyuN's aid, raising enough to keep HyuN in the game for a year more before HyuN's military service. ROCCAT would extend their help with him being part of Team ROCCAT. HyuN would take second place in the SeatStory Cup against Snute who continues to have his number.

HyuN's first WCS America 2014 started off without much fanfare, defeating Revival and favorite ByuL in some tight ZvZs. He would encounter puCK, his foreign Protoss rival who defeated him once more, and came back to defeat Heart and puCK in a rematch to reach the Ro8. Here HyuN would face TaeJa, a player with a remarkable record against him and the heavy favorite. HyuN would make the miracle win in a series involving HyuN trademark Roaches and his superb Muta/Ling/Bane. HyuN would easily bulldoze Alicia to face Oz in the finals. After a fairly strange series involving proxy Hatcheries, mass Zerg air and Cannon rushes, HyuN would defeat his Protoss opponent 4-2 to take his second championship, and secure his Blizzcon spot.

Currently in Korea competing in SSL primarily. HyuN has taken intensive practice regimes in the CJ house and as of right now in Axiom.
