Sadly it seems I have to put this up yet again. Any of the following types of posts will be met with immediate bans:

Imbalance whine/Player bashing/Caster bashing/Stream complaining/Off topic arguing.

Stick to the games and enjoy the event and its free services and coverage.

Like I said, it's up to the intelligent people to stop this "HuK is Korean" crap. We don't need another thin red line, we can do it ourselves. Fine. He's foreigner. And Bomber will faceroll him. End of story. Keep your flavor of the month champion (yes, I'm looking at you, NANIWHATBESTFOREIGNPROTOSS fans).

It took him quite some time to be dominating WC3 aswell, and he has the work ethic to maybe become code s-class, which he isn't right now.

And I don't know whom he practices with, WMF does only have Lyn, so there have to be other guys.

Goddamn Australians always stealing our stuff. HuK's a kiwi, damnit!


How about we share him and call him an ANZ? Then everyone wins!

HuK is a foreigner. It is not Koreans who are superior, it is their training regime, is this really that hard for you to understand?

This topic is so stupid to read.

Suddendly people think the nation where you play has to determine your nationality. It isn't like this in ANY sport, so please stfu. If people move to a nation with better infrastructures for training they don't change nationality. Messi and Ronaldo aren't spanish , they play in spanish teams. Same goes for Huk, he isn't Korean for the mother of god, he play in a korean team.

I couldn't care less about who win but the fanboysm in this thread is making me puke.


Only a few clueless people thinks nationality is the focus of discussion, this including you. What people are saying is the training style of Korean versus the foreigners, which still stands and clearly proven when the top 4 players all undergo the Korean style training.

No, some people said that foreigner (non-Korean) is in top 3, which is correct. Then some people started screaming that HuK is Korean and distorting the definition of the word "Korean". So it is you who changed the focus of the discussion by changing the definition of words without actually informing others that you changed them. Very dishonest and hypocritical approach.


There are few trolls out there saying nationailty is the reason. But when we said koreans we generally talk about korean scenes. And no we didn't change it at the last second because this has been an on going discussion across many pages and threads over the past weeks. Perhaps the term Korean training is better choice.

You have issues and a lack of understanding how the real world works, you are basically trolling and it is disruptive to this thread.


Well, in terms of Starcraft 2, HuK is korean.

Who cares about where he plopped out of his mothers vagina, it's about where and whom with you train.

In SC:BW, there was the same situation with idrA, he was in Korea training and playing AND STILL he was considered a foreigner (he could e.g play in the foreign only tounament TSL2)

Mods should lock this thread when there are no games going, after all, this is a live-report thread. What's there to report when nothing's going on, off-topic content starts flooding and the thread quality just goes down.

The reason why the HuK is korean crap is back is due to the long amounts of breaks that made ppl waiting for the streams bored.

Messi plays a Spanish style of football though, even Argentinians say that while Messi is an Argentine national he is a product of Spanish football.

Just like Huk is a Canandian but is a product of Korean Starcraft.


wtf are you talking about Messi is a product of the argentinians football school.

You have no idea wtf you talking about Brazil and Argentina got some of the best football schools in the world.

Jesus crist some of you people just plain silly

barca signed messi when he was 13.


So you got no idea how the argentina schools work. The best players from age 5-6 get recruited into those schools.

Messi was allrdy a wunderkid when he was 13 just like Maradona was when he was 10. just like Ronaldo was when he was 15 and moved to Amsterdam

Plz stop talking about football stick to sc2


yes, those 6 early years obviously has meant a lot more for him than the 11 he have had in spain.
lol.

Do you see the sprints nad rythm changes where he breaks the defence? It's a product from La Masia.



yep, seems that drugs are better in Spain than in other countries nowadays (joking aside, it's a real problem in spanish sport, with a bigger extend than most of the other countries)


So you believe Barcelona are doped? Not disagreeing with you, but I think they just pay refs IMO XD

Yeh true. I wouldn't be at all surprised if he keeps improving, he's obviously naturally talented after all.

Doesn't he even still play some WC3?
