He said on Live on 3 that he actually wanted a US/Canada combo flag.

The upgrades didn't win him the game, the micro did. Seriously if you look at that last engagement you could see all the targeting on the collosi from naniwa but MC was probably just a-moving, I mean he could have blinked forward and targeted the collosi. It was not a BO win, the micro decided who was the better player in that last engagement.


The upgrades won it more than micro did, having +2 on colossus mean they do 8 more damage per swipe which is huge.

sick series.

boring as hell game 3 though, sit back on two base and let the tech choices made blidnly without any scouting decide the winner irrespective of macro, micro, or positioning. a game that doesn't show anything about the winner unfortunately, i felt a lot better about Nani in game 1 where he outplayed MC as opposed to this crap.


Naniwa didn't outplay MC in game one. It was a build order win. That's why PvP is so stupid, most games aren't decided by skill but by which build order you blindly picked, the reason MC is so good in PvP (as opposed to basically anyone else) is that he is able to win often when his build order is worse than the others guys (see game 2 in this series).

I agree with you, first game came down to decision making but in the last game Naniwa just out-microed MC tbh.



The only reason naniwa won was because of the +2w upgrade. Pure BO loss since they were just massing army for the whole game.

Didn't you see the micro? Naniwa focussed on the colossus with his colossus. MC was focussing on the Zealots. No buildorder loss...

Go MC! COME ON! U can still win it! (wow naniwa, wow!)

Indeed he can. The Grandfinals don't give a large advantage to the winners bracket player. Only 1 map in a bo7.


Wait, what?

Double elimination tournaments have their rules for a reason. If it's 1 BO7, then if Nani and MC meet in the grand finals, that means that MC could win that BO7 and win the entire tournament after losing a BO series, while Nani hadn't lost a single one until then.


TaKe already said the one coming from the Loser bracket will be 0-1.

Is that 0-1 in games in a BoX, or 0-1 in series, with it being a Bo3 BoX?

>.<..
Imagine MC wins everything in the loser bracket and gets to play Naniwa in the Grand finals, then Naniwa will be up 1:0 in a best of 7.
Hopefully now everyone understands it!

Ah ok thanks. I think it would be better if the winners bracket player had to win 1 series, and the losers bracket player another series. That way seems to embrace the double elimination format better.

NANI is swedish dude.

I am pretty sure it was sarcastic


It is a reference from when Huk won dreamhack... Some crazy americans thought he was from the states :o
So short answer: Trolling


He's from Florida.

We need to go over this every time HuK does well in a tournament, I guess. =P

He was born to Canadian parents, but lived in Florida until he was 16. I don't think we know where he was born, only that he spent essentially all of his life up to that point in the US. That would make him a Canadian living in America, or a Canadian-American. Either one is acceptable unless we know he was born in the US, in which case I would go with Canadian-American. When he was 16, he moved to Canada (...Toronto, I think?). So, when he started playing SCII, he was known as a Canadian player, because that's where he lived.

He seems to be fine with playing under the Canadian flag, but it's not like anybody asked him before listing him as Canadian on the TLPD, Liquipedia, and other resources. People often seem to think that he's more Canadian than American, whatever that may mean, but it doesn't really matter. HuK has connections to both Canada and the US, and one day Team Liquid will have to produce a documentary with a major cinematic release to settle the matter in the minds of fans.


Can we just call him North American? People who are arguing over it just want to claim him as their own, which is kind of stupid if you think about it that way.

Except its coupled with one of the worst rappers known to man, kanye west.

Why do people think Kanye is a bad rapper? He is a baby and an asshole but is a talented as fuck rapper and artist.

Meh, some people don't like his style.
I do have the biggest respects for guys like him and 50 Cent & Diddy, using their music career to build up business empires, that's idol-stuff.
It appears I have been chosen.
