HuK always has a ceremony :D. idra would probably laugh at him for celebrating after making code s but screw idra, mma is pretty skilled

Yeah. Idra would probably complain about Huk being abusive, arrogant, overconfident, etc.

Nevertheless, I'm extremely happy to see Huk make it through the Up and Down matches after Jinro's fall. Even though I got my Liquidbet wrong, it's great to see Huk pull through and with a ceremony too.

That was a very very well executed build by Huk. Super impressed right now with his play

MMA was way too greedy to expo and tech at the same time... he was basically flipping a coin and praying his opponent doesn't attack..

Contrary, in game 1, Huk expos but stays on gateway units instead of trying to tech up, which allowed him to hold MMA's push.

MMA definitely seemed to be on tilt, but part of being a great player is being able to forget previous games quickly.

Oh, and have to give Huk made props on that game 2 rush. There was about 2 seconds from that final pylon landing to the warp in starting. That build was timed out to the second. That's impressive, even if it is a 1-base rush. It's nice to see super-clean stuff like that. (And it exploited MMA's 1-rax expand, which is I think how MKP ended up in Up & Down as well?)

Sad to see MMA not make code S a day before 4 gate nerf haha

TBH the 4 gate nerf wouldn't have helped much in that situation. He was going all sentry (buffed) and didn't actually rush right when WG finished.

I really liked that strategy from HuK. So many people go greedy builds on Terminus, and the result is that when people do go for all-ins, it's usually successful. The proxy warpgates were a nice touch, too.

I'm a little sad that MMA did not advance to Code S, though. He is a code S level player but he didn't do quite enough today.
