Huk, with his incredible determination and work ethic, was always going to be a scary prospect after a few months training in Korea.

I really feel that qxc could get top5 in this tournament, to bad he had to play HuK so soon.

I wish it would be bo5 at this point. Kind of sad that it's bo3 even in the semi.

Greman stream, I dont get a word,but he's still awesome to listen to when there's fights going on. Tactic and analyzing i can cover myself most of the time (atleast better than the GLHF stream where i understand something) and Khaldor makes shit entertaining. :D

Solid play, but seriously there's nothing amazing to what Huk played. He was save early game and then camped on 3 base defended until he hit an army thats not beatable by Bio Terran.

I'm not taking any credit away from Huk here, its a solid play and his defence was good - but it wasn't amazing play either.


The early game play WAS amazing. He is dimensions different from the way he was before korea.

The most impressive part was the stalker control. He is simply not afraid of terran bio, even in the early game. He actually took out marauders with concussive shells as if it was normal.

At every single turn he made the better decision and had the better control. qcx couldn't do anything. You won't see that from other protosses.

The late game however was sloppy and he built som random pylons (pylons are good for scouting drops sure, but you could tell some of them were just built for fun). He was really cost inefficient and wasted colossus and so on. But I think that was just because the game was already over.

But the early game play definitely made me think HuK is the best player here. As long as he concentrates in the late game, I have a hard time seeing anyone taking him out. Perhaps you have to be protoss to appreciate it but the early game play WAS freaking amazing.


...? I'm sorry but I see players on ladder doing the same. 2 rax pressure can be defendet especially with Zealot / Stalker. Huk used stalker only with good scouting and knew his opponent went up in tech (hellion) so a really hard Marauder/Marine push is unlikely to occur. He played good in defence, but it was nothing amazing really.

Naniwa is the same, White-rA is the same, also Adelscott can defend well with gateway units.. so yeah. I don't know your level, but I'm not impressed by things like that. I have much more respect of Zergs reading the game well than that.

And no, the early game was not FREAKING AMAZING. It was rock solid.


Edit: And please don't missunderstand this as talking Huk done. Because I think he's a really good if not amazing player. I just don't understand that hype for actions like that.

nearly all your posts lately sound very biased


Biased towards what? I'm just not hyping anyone for small actions. If Huk wins the whole thing I'm saying he did show rock solid performance and was the best player in that tournament and won deserved, but I'm not saying. Ahh no competition for Huk there, he'll win easily without a keyboard.

not just huk, towards protoss in general





Could you please see the results ... ? and the race distribution as of now?


Don't bother with him, he is not making any sense. (The other guy that is)


You mean me, or him?

IEM was a different story, when all the Protoss played A WHOLE DIFFERENT style and Terran was saying that Protoss is not playing right, being killed in early game. Now when the Protoss know how to play the early game and stay defensive or defend well early/midgame, they come ahead by a lot in late.

Obviously you can try to punish it with being greedy, but thats not an easy thing to do.
I'm not QQ'ing imba, but who denies that the following changed:

Protoss gamestyled changed from really offensive / allin to defensive expansion
Terran is behind in lategame
Protoss is amazingly strong in defence!

Just doesn't understand TvP. I have a good AoE spell with EMP and a mobile strong army especially with upgrades, but I just don't have the hitpoints to battle the Protoss lategame AoE especially with reduced mobility due to forcefields.

All I'll say is that these two games HuK vs qxc really impressed me just because it was totally one-sided. I mean, it wasn't even close. I doubt white-ra and nani could make it that one-sided. Or perhaps you think qxc is overrated?

If you want to call it rock solid, then sure. Rock solid. And I'm good enough to know what I'm talking about .

The God mode for Protoss in later game PvT is starting to get a bit tedious o watch. Blizzard already acknowledged the problem several month ago, but they still haven't fixed it.



they couldnt fix it cause P only recently evolved into more good solid play. the earlygame TvP thing kinda got fixed now by good P builds,timings and confidence(and incase of gstl maps too).

now with P learning to play games outside of 1/2base allins and new maps changing the whole game and showing new issues with some mechanics they can check again if/what they wanna change.

Yes, I think Naniwa can make it equally one-sided. Easily. He has one of the best army - controls I've ever seen of a player. I really never have seen Naniwa fuck up badly in a fight / micro situation. Thats really one of his strengths.


Edit: And yes, I do think lategame TvP is not winnable against a competent Protoss with Bioplay. But I do think PvT lategame is not winnable against 200/200 good - mech play vs a competent Terran. Its only beatable if you wear him down earlygame and get an advantage.
