I don't understand why everyone was saying Huk gave in to the crowd. he planned that from the start with the map choice

We'll have to actually ask Huk himself if the big bolded italicized paragraph is correct.

I don't think HuK did anything in the wrong, he represented his team well. Played a phenomenal tournament and by the time he actually made the mothership he was already in the grave and that actually made it closer (arguably). Maybe with a better vortex we have a HuK win? Its pretty ridiculous to be flaming him.

Edit: Plus HuK doesn't need a loser's mentality to realize he has no chance of out racing IdrA in the finals when IdrA has a two game head start. Not really a good incentive to advance there, why not have some fun.

Was a very entertaining game definitely! It's nice to see a player like Huk actually have some fun and pull a strategy like that in a big tourney.

But then again thats why players like Idra (who take every single game seriously) ROFLSTOMP Huk.

We didnt watched the same game. He lost his nexus BECAUSE he was mothership rushing.

he was caught off guard by the short path. i'm not convinced he was ms rushing until after that.

The problem with Select is his predictability. He has done the exact same strat for every game. Not that i'm saying it's OP, kiwi showed some good strengths and attempted to counter with inventive play, but Idra can watch Select's game and know EXACTLY what to expect. Selects best option is to change it up and deviate from what he has done every game. Select is an awesome player but it's sad that he doesn't deviate enough. What ever wins you games i guess, so he can't be faulted for that.

I don't care if Terran haven't won all the big tournaments I still love watching Terran's lose.


Man, I'm a terran player and I agree with this. All the respect in the world to SeleCT. He's a micro beast. But, any time I'm watching a player for 3 hours and you know exactly what he's going to do from a strategic perspective, it just gets boring. Yes, tactically, he's impressive (I don't want to say "brilliant" because, even tactically, its the exact same stuff every game). But when everyone in the building knows your exact build and your tactics, regardless of the map or even the situation, and top notch players still have trouble with it, it indicates a problem.

This isn't a general character trait like "HuK is aggressive" or "IdrA is passive", the man gives you the same build order and tactics every game (yeah, yeah ... reactor against Kiwi, woweee). It'll be interesting to see, post tournament, whether top guys can poke holes in the carefully crafted and field tested SeleCT produt.

An IdrA/SeleCT finals will be a fight of the least creative top players we have in NA and, oddly, I'd still give my left nut to watch.



This is exactly the criticism people were giving Flash when he played his turtle style. How did that turn out?

Exactly.

I dont know why huk did it its almost BM to play out a game like this. Feels kinda anticlimatic to see him throw away a perfectly even game to get a mothership out 2 minutes too late?

Lol, ya. XD

Seriously, Huk probably just gained a ton of fans despite losing. ^__^

Yeah, damn that unsportsmanlike making of units that counter your opponents army!
