July is not that strong ZvZ... now you've potentially sacrificed a protoss and when you face nestea you might have 2 zergs and jinro left..
Yeah I kinda disagree with sending Huk when they should send Dimaga Preferably to snipe July. But maybe the remaining zergs or in this case Dimaga is confident that he will Nestea. Anything can happen in a best of 1 as with MC vs WhiteRa.

Maybe HuK just really wanted to play vs a Z? Hope it goes well!!

I couldn't tell exactly how many of his pylons he was able to cancel and how many of them actually were killed by lings. He was spending so much money on building and rebuilding his wall that he ended up pretty far behind. I think it could have come out to be a relatively even game if he expanded while July made a bunch of queens, but WhiteRa wasn't really in that great of a position at any point.
White-Ra was cutting back probes to stop that all in push. He knew it was coming, antipcated it well & executed his defense superbly as well.
Also July's ling did some dmg to his probes, as well as pullin' 'em off the mineral line.

We just assumed July's way behind after his early baneling push got stopped.
His supply was partially supply-inefficient roaches, and his natural was extremely late, while WhiteRa had his tech buildings up already and was completely safe from any aggression because of his void rays. He was not far ahead or behind

July wont have an answer to top 3 control

The guy is a master coach, he knows what he's doing. Yet I still question his decision here. You dont wan to throw zergs at nestea, jinro is slumpy, and versus mvp you kind of want a protoss. I suppose Huk feels insecure about facing mvp? Im so surprised >_< I was thinking the same thing. This choice seems very odd.

well,cutting probes at 18(even less probes than 19 or 20 probe 4 gate), and going a high risk-high reward strategy is the definition of allin

He lost 2-1 to Losira again on the weekend in the SK champions trophy, didn't really look like he'd changed much. Won the first game when Losira made a silly mistake and Huk capitalised on it by forcefielding him out of his natural forever, but lost close pos ST despite being well set up, and got outclassed on Crevasse.
That said it's not like July is the most stable opponent and it's a bo1, so who knows what will happen =)

On the subject of WhiteRa's all in, at the point at which he moved to sit his units outside his base while gathering up to push, they both had 26 workers with July making considerably more (along with his queens).

If HuK gets a mothership this game, I will... do something crazy.

I dislike Team USA sending out Huk, if he's defeated MvP might become unstoppable without any Protosses to chuck in his way.
