Yeah what ever PvT Huk gets is bad news, First he got MVP in WCs then this. I was hoping for a Rain/Huk group.

Tester is pass his time so he's probably going to Code A but i could see him winning a PvP off san.
We got them GOM TvT's and them mlGG's

To be honest, the only two I can see almost guaranteed drop to Code A are HuK and TheWind. HuK finally drew some PvTs, but he got some tough ones (still could pull an upset).


How's TheWind guarenteed Code A, I'd fancy him to win one of those ZvZ's.

Huk's probably fucked though.

TheWind staying Code S would be so epic for the lulz. Fate doesn't want him to drop it seems

The only really positive thing about the unlucky group HuK got is, that maybe the hating will finally stop. What I mean is, that there are two options:
a) He wins: the crowd would go mad.
b) He loses: not that shameful of a loss, MMA and MKP are two extraordinary players.
HuK had to swallow some painful losses recently, maybe he can get into a "ah fuck it"-mentality, don't think too much about Code S, Code A, Code whatever and just try to play his best and most solid game. Even if he still loses, I think a good, solid performance would really help his mindset at this point. Then he can come back in the following season even stronger.

Not being able to play (and win) in "smaller" tournaments really seems to put pressure on the foreigners. I can remember several months ago when everyone was like "huh, what did IdrA really accomplish until now?". Once he was back he had the opportunity to build up confidence in smaller competitions to eventually win IPL. Not having those "smaller" tournaments is a really bad thing, even in real sports athletes need these tournaments for preparations. Just think about the grand slams, mostly those that perform well in the perparation tournaments do well in the grand slams too. If you get some self confidence by stomping nerds in a small tournament, I think this influences your performance greatly when it matters.

Rough group for HuK, going to be rough to win, but at least he only has PvT to practice for. And, of course, even if he does get dropped to code A, he should still have enough points (I believe) to qualify for the super tournament.

Rain, Huk and Check are definitely out of code S, it will be interesting how the other groups turn out, there's some pretty hardcore matchups going on

Well, when it inevitably comes down to Rain vs Rainbow it's actually a tough call. People bash on Rain consistently because he uses the "all-in", but he's not a bad player. Unfortunately, what he's good at is a style not many appreciate, so he tried to play a more standard style which he isn't as good at.

Rainbow on the other hand is all over the place. Some days he's got that spark, but lately most days he just seems to barely scrape through.

I'll be putting my liquibet on Rain. He already knows what it's like to fall down and come back, so in a way his "experience" might count for it all in the match.

Code S isn't a cakewalk. If Huk wanted to go anywhere in the GSL he has to prove he can go against players of that caliber. He shouldn't be mad he got the group he did. It was going to happen eventually.

Time to put up or shut up.

"NuKedUFirst likes this."

Hope oGsThewind stays Code S and Rain drops down :D Huk gets thrown in the group of death for the lulz.

Huk could beat MMA. I don't think he is out of it considering a lot of top Korean players consider him very highly. The question appears to be less about skill and more about comfort with dealing with the pressure of the situation. I think if Huk could zone in, then he could stand a very strong chance of moving on up.

lol if MC goes down to code A, the world would probably end... consider he will be playing a PvP even if he lost his first match against ryung, which i personally dont think he will..

Huk need to practice hardcore PvT, its a tough group but its not impossible. will be fun to see mkp fall to code A next season, he may finally get a championship then , hahaha joke, o wait, mvp got only got second place , mkp....

He can take on both Ryung and MC in a Bo3.

lol? Hongun has San-like PvP.

Huk better hope MMA wins the first match or else he's dead. I give him 50/50 vs MKP but 0% vs MMA in BO3.

It's not so much that Hongun can't do PvP well, it's that he hates doing conventional builds - and in PvP against MC, that attitude will kill you very, very quickly.
