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.

Look, just because a guy was the only undefeated player in his pools and wins the championship title with only 3 loses over the span of three days--two of those loses only coming from the final round in a best of five--does not mean he's a good player okay?

It's not like he's the only foreigner in Code S
It's not like he's won an MLG

Why call him a good player right?

Did he just say sugar daddy?

yes, the organization Swerok he interviews gives (government) funds to associations related to gaming and roleplaying. (Swedish role- and conflict playing association (play = game in swedish)). (roleplaying and games related to conflict (boardgames and such))

so the sugar dady was a pun on the fact that he gives funds to kids playing games.

Agreed. Its absolutely awful that people have to pick holes and find excuses for every little thing that happens. why can't people just enjoy the competitive, exciting games?

So Koreans sweep top 5 spots in DH and dominate the rest of the world again. Yes Huk is korean and anyone who argues that is delusional. He's a product of korean training and honestly even if Huk had to play in a tougher group he would of still placed top 5.


So when foreigners fall out of the GSL, it's because the system sucks but when Huk bust his ass off and succeed, he suddenly became Korean? It sounds like a convenient excuse for the foreign community's lack of effort.

He's actually right in a sense. Huk is so skilled now due to living in Korea and playing in that environment. Its not opinion, its a fact

Moon knows he didn't deserve to be there in the finals. You even heard him say he was surprised to be the last Korean standing. Huk choked like always but Moon mind fucked himself even worse. Terrible, terrible finals. I'd rather watch Polt sweep MMA again.

Why didn't Moon deserve to be in the finals? Bomber didn't play exactly inspirational either. And Polt sweeping MMA was the most entertaining thing I saw since Mvp swept MKP. Twice.


I'm not making any excuses for Bomber. He really should have advanced after beating MC, but he didn't bring his A game. Since Moon beat him though, I was expecting a way better performance than what I saw. Sloppy play by both throughout and ending it with a 6 pool? Game 4 was already bad enough. People were laughing at the absurdity of a game appropriate for some kind of showmatch, not the finals of a major tournament. I just found it pretty pathetic.

it's the dreamhack curse

Yes, Huk was lucky that he scouted first, but that is why he sent out the probe scout immediately after the pylon. Though, it always seems like zerg early pools/cheeses get scouted first D:

Not to sound like too big of a dick, but saying that isn't funny and it just makes you look bad. Plus I think HuK is considered to be more of a Canadian, though everyone who supports the Koreans is calling him Korean now since he did well.

I agree. Also I still believe Bomber would have won if it was a Best of 5.

That's exactly what the foreigners vs. Koeans discussion is about. HuK is essentially a Korean -- he lives with, plays with, and does everything with Koreans in Korea and he has done so for months now.

It should be quite obvious that Korean play is far superior to nonkorean play just by looking at the results of any LAN tournament Koreans attend. Even this Dreamhack was domianted by Koreans to the point that not a single Korean (yes, I include HuK as a Korean) lost to a nonkorean at all.

Breaking revelation:

Top 4 in DH taken by players who train hard.
No players who didn't train as hard made it into top 4!

People dub it foreigners vs koreans but if you want the details about what that means i'll give it to you

foreigners (sit on their lazy asses playing 2-5 hours a day while working another job) vs koreans (train 12 hours a day with 20 other people all year round fulltime).

Simple enough right?

Huk was born in the U.S......he holds dual citizenship if you want to get technical. People from Canada/US should just cheer NA NA NA instead lol.

Except if HuK didn't get (arguably) lucky in G4 Moon would've had the series at 3-1, so in a sense he got lucky twice, while if Moon won they both got lucky.

It was Team USA who won you commies. Trying to steal USA's success.


Considering Team Liquid has many members not from America I don't think you can call them "USA"s team. They're more of a foreigner team.
