I think this is just ICCup.tv staff overreacting again, this is like the 5th time HuK has been in drama over his strange mannerisms and humor+ Show Spoiler +
(I am the same way as HuK and I get in just as much drama over what I said or how I said it, to who, when, what words I used etc etc)
, and like the 5th time ICCup.tv have had some drama over slightly odd mannerisms.

Maybe the casters shouldn't be chatting with the players on the stream, as it seems to be the cause of this problem all the time.

It would be cool if maybe ICCup.tv took the initiative to work on a way for their casters to throw up a 1-way overlay (only overlay on the broadcasted material, not what the caster has on his own screen) that would provide some form of entertaining images/content while the caster could chat and organize things "behind the scenes". If they can come up with a simple way to let all streamers do this I think it would catch on.

I think its possible by just getting a 2nd monitor, very justified investment for someone who wants to provide quality content to thousands of viewers many times a week.
Our posturings, our imagined self-importance, the delusion that we have some privileged position in the Universe, are challenged by this point of pale light.

The guy is really amazing and underrated. His mechanics are insane, he has an average apm near 400. IEM could be a big chance for him.

He's not banned in any way shape or form. He just got dq'd from that one match.

I think this is more of a product of the sheer amount of casts ICCUP does. Half of the time I log on TL, ICCUP is casting something. They are bound to run into some difficulties.

Edit: Chewey, read the whole thread from about page 8.

This might seem a bit arbitrary, but consider other popular pro-gamers in a similar situation having a shitty day. Could any of you imagine, for example, TLO or Dimaga saying anything like that? Probably not.

Does that make Huk a terrible person? No.
Does it make him immature? Yes.
Does it really matter in the grand scheme of things? No.

It's unfortunate that someone like Raelcun who spends literally all day every day providing this community with content has to put up with being talked to like a piece of poop if he wants certain popular players in iccup events.

If I were in Raelcun's position I would've told someone mouthing off to me like that to go fuck themselves. I'd say that the iccup staff handled themselves pretty damn professionally when compared to a lot of other tournament admins in the starcraft 2 scene right now. They were arguing over what was said. Posting proof of what was said seems fine to me when it's being disputed by the very people involved.


Edit: Listening to the stream, I don't think Raelcun doesn't seem too concerned about it and he was the one on the shitty end of the stick, so it's probably not worth any of us even discussing.

I Dunno man, ive been following the BW and SC2 scene for a good 2 years, and this kind of BM just makes him looks like a 10 years old kid who doesnt want to cooperate with his mother, very childish.

I have absolutly no problem with some BM from time to time between PLAYERS.
That creates some kind of rivalry that is fun for viewers to follow.. this was BM to a caster in a live event and actualy ruined it for him and some viewers.

If HuK wants people to lose interest in the SC2 foreign scene at a faster pace, this is the kind of shit that gets you there, imagine all the kids acting like that in a tourney? that would be total chaos.
Set an Example, ban the guy, SC2 is still very new, many pro players are on the road ahead.

Just to re clarify. HuK is not banned, suspended or anything. He is always welcome back on iCCup TV.

Was it immature and stupid? yes
Did it hurt his reputation? yes
Does his apologize make it right? Well no, but everyone has their bad days so it's just stupid to let this thing ruin his reputation completely. It's not like you or me are perfect.

On internet you can always take apologizes with a little grain of salt but HuK seems good enough guy so I don't really have a reason to start hating him now.

Lets just forget this thing and move on.
There are good games going ^^

Yet another reason to dislike HuK. If you've had a bad day and you won't be able to handle a simple Starcraft 2 tournament, don't fucking play. There's no need to act like a complete and utter asshole. What a prick.

And iCCup is trying to do everyone a favor and get better, more competitive maps in the spotlight. It really disgusts me that he called the maps shitty. Ugh.

Yeah, Fenix is from Peru. He's really good, and we've had him in a few iCCup event's lately and he always does pretty well.

His match vs select is probably one of my favorite TvTs:

great matches, LZ fails and costs me $25, and to think I was going to buy him a drink in DC, that's obviously out the window now.

Going to respond here a little bit late to the whole general thing, do I understand yes people have bad days and I fully understand it just frankly it was too much for me to deal with at the time hence why when told after the fact that he wanted Metal by other people and not by Huk I just said no and moved on.

I mean I know Huk jokes around a lot and he does make fun of me a lot but I realize most of the time he's kidding around I have thick skin I can deal with it. But when I'm trying to figure out a map to host for a showmatch and he won't straight up tell me a map then swears at me every time I guess and host one... Well it gets a little tough to deal with, host 3 different maps have him decline the invites 3 different times and then ask him straight up to tell me a map and his response is that we need new casters?

That's too much for anyone, so yes Huk jokes around in this instance it was too much and I stand by my actions 100% and at the same time fully understand that people get stressed out just don't want to have to deal with it again.

Glad the issue is resolved. I sympathize with you as I know how stressful running a live show can be. From now, I would prefer this thread to remain about the actual games rather than a superfluous moment between a player and caster. Thanks a lot.
