Groups for Red Bull Battlegrounds got announced recently, and HyuN's group consists of MC, sOs and Snute. Both MC and sOs are going to likely follow the momentum from their WCS showings, so MC should not be as scary as he could be and sOs is probably going to top this group, and I believe Snute will unfortunately take last place in the group. HyuN should advance into the Ro4 at least because MC is defeatable in his current form and Snute's ZvZ probably won't hold against HyuN's ZvZ showings lately. sOs is fresh off of winning the title of best player in 2013, and HyuN is going to be challenged against him, but HyuN isn't exactly a Jaedong either. Either way, hope we get good games and of course HyuN advancing.

Nice weekend ending up second place in HomeStory Cup, but HyuN really should work on playing better overall, his play was up and down and didn't convince anyone this is a player we could see winning Red Bull or DreamHack. And by the way, HyuN takes the reputable title of Triple Crown of Kongs.

I don't think anyone can touch that crown till Jaedong wins something.

GGs this weekend, HyuN!

DreamHack Winter groups just released, and HyuN's group consists of NaNiwa, LucifroN, TLO and Patience. This should be a doable group for HyuN even with all the traveling, though of course, he needs to take caution and be serious. NaNiwa has and will win against HyuN with any means possible, and he has always proven to be a deadly assassin to HyuN's greedy builds. LucifroN hasn't been showing too much recently in LANs, but one again, a very intelligent player who has taken on HyuN pretty well, though I think HyuN should win against Luci. TLO and Patience are the players I can see HyuN winning most likely, but he should always be a bit safe against TLO because he knows HyuN's styles and HyuN's ZvP still feels vulnerable. All in all, a group HyuN should advance from if he is prepared well enough and if he comes off a good weekend from Red Bull Battlegrounds.

Decent effort at Red Bull, but against Protosses HyuN just fell flat when he had some winnable positions. HyuN has some problems with dealing against Void Rays because he just doesn't tech out of Hydras and it almost never goes in his favor. As much as he can complain about ZvP being in Protoss's favor, he does have some serious flaws in his play he should repair.

Stay strong HyuN, even though it must be incredibly demoralizing being scammed by that fraudster Simon, I hope you can hold out for at least one more year. What a shitty way to start off your last year of gaming. I'd even go far as to suggest HyuN's declining results from the summer could be explained from the stress of not receiving his money cause how could one practice and be moralized when they have the dark cloud over their head about being penniless.

HyuN is now a member of team ROCCAT! ROCCAT should treat HyuN well and hopefully keep him afloat until HyuN's military service has to begin, and it should be enough motivation for HyuN to start attending tournaments again and play with more confidence.

Progresses to the top 16 in IEM, defeating Tarrantius, viOLet and Leenock, though he lost to Patience. Expected results like this from his ZvP which hasn't been stellar recently, and I'm kinda worried from the groups cause they have strong Protosses and Terrans, and only Jaedong is the Zerg he can face. If he gets a good group he can move on, but he has to also be in full focus.

Rain, Hero and ForGG is going to be a very tough group for HyuN.

His ZvP hasn't been the best as of late but he can beat ForGG, Rain and Hero are both strong but if HyuN plays up to his full potential he should still be able to advance.
