I'm not saying either player did this or will ever think of doing it, but whats to stop people in a show match series with money on the line from playing somewhere where they have a friend on a laptop or something telling them exactly whats happening via the live stream? I know not everyone is a scumbag and cheats but hey sometimes money makes people do crazy things no? | ||

Absolutely I have played mid-game PvT. You can have fake collosus with hallucinate upgraded that will probably soak up more damage from the marauders plus at the same time your bigger gateway army will do more damage than you would think to his bio army. It also can scare him off if he sees you with 3 collosus. Another benefit would be doing a different tech route while he think you have mass robo units. Im pretty sure HuKs collosi didn't really do much damage in those last 2 games. Thanks for telling me to read the first part of the sentence. | ||

I know not everyone is a scumbag and cheats but hey sometimes money makes people do crazy things no? That's always going to be a possibility with online tournaments, but if someone was doing then it would most likely be pretty obvious really. I mean, let's say someone is going to drop and while he is moving the other player shifts his defence a bit, then all of a sudden without any scouting the dropping player just stops and returns. Sure, it could have been pure game sense, but honestly I think if someone did cheat it would be pretty easy to see. | ||

Had he attacked, Morrow could have floated the fact above his units and easily killed them because all stalkers and sentries would have attacked the factory instead of MorroWs army. The floating factory also prevents you from clicking on units beneath it, which can also mess up an attack. It wasn't about bait, there's no way HuK is that naive. Watch the replay. This doesn't work. If he actually moved into the base the fact was way too far away to actually make it to the battle in time. The fact was above the ramp. The battle would of taken place near the starport/rax in the middle of the base so morrow could try and use a choke. Even if it did make it over the fight would of been decided by then. It wouldn't of even been close. This is a non-issue. It was a mistake. Simple as that. | ||

For the pros, the vast majority of them want to just play straight up games, and they know if they were caught cheating that they would be boned. | ||

I understand why some people prefer the slower methodical way of handling the camera, but I personally much prefer what Incontrol and LZ did. | ||

Tbh White-Ra really hasn't won any major tournaments in a while, and in a while I mean like beta lol. I would say that Huk is the best toss outside Korea, but I would prolly give the European server an edge in overall skill. | ||

HuK is a player who learns through conditioning, morrow is a player who just has that fuller deeper understanding of the game and can make the most outta what he is presented with. I understand practice is important, but I always respected the players with a good game sense over players that just practice a ton and can copy build orders. That's why I love jaedong and flash, cause they have the skill + they have such a good feel for the game. | ||
