I can see that. But Losira, DRG and Nestea are all better than sen.


Clearly the best foreigner? Maybe the best foreign Zerg, but Huk has clearly established himself as the top foreigner at the moment.

No, huk isn't the best foreigner at all. I'd take dimaga/throzain/sen/naniwa/idra before huk because they've been much more consistent.

Really? How so?

Because results over a long period of time is what separates you in starcraft....it's a marathon not a sprint. It's more like tennis or golf because there's so many events and few players can win consistently.

Does anybody DEFINITIVELY know if the NASL is making money?


50,000 stream viewers, ads after open stream and after games, sponsors, premium tickets and much more... I think so


I think what he meant was "profiting". Is the NASL turning a profit from this season, aka can they continue business. Not obvious considering the sponsors are kinda small.


Season 2 starts next week apparently so you would assume it has been a success thus far.

His english is really improving. I like that he is making the effort to do it on his own, just like how Jinro learned Korean. I guess Huk said he is trying to learn Korean too, but he's not very good at it or something

It's an incredibly difficult language for native English speakers. It's SO different.


Wouldn't it be just as hard for Swedish people?


Asian languages are not as hard as people make them out to be. The truth is that ALL languages are hard to learn. Asian languages might be slightly different, but like all other languages it's a matter of practice and application.

sen played soooooo well this series. this is a must watch.
but in the end mc really deserves to be in the finals. he pulls off amazing comebacks with his unitcontrol and decision making again and again!

Why do people say Huk is Korean. He is a foreigner who trains with Koreans... What is not to understand. If you are in the same environment you will adapt. He trains as hard as they do... that is why he can compete.


foreigners are people who train outside of korea. and "Koreans" are people who train in Korea. Therefore, select is a "foreigner" and Huk is a "korean"

Also English is a myriad of rules and exceptions to those rules. But I understand MC perfectly.

I wouldn't go that far. Rember when Jinro was dominating...look what happened. This was also during when there was imbalanced maps. Lets stop making generalizations off a few tournaments. Sen could have been Code-S but he decided to stay in taiwan to help promote e-sports there.


Jinro was never dominating, he had a single good run through a tournament. Huk has a much more meaningful list of accomplishments already.

Ok, too all the zerg's saying sen outplayed mc. I am a high masters zerg and I will occasionally delve into balance, but that is just not the case at all. MC outplayed sen, Sen got nervous and made a few hasty decisions that lost him the game. both player played brilliantly, but MC had to make soo many very tough decision in that game. He HAD to delay his gold expo on meta, he made incredible descision on when to attack and a incredibly smart void switch on terminus. So many good decisions by MC. MC was moments away from losing it all at many points but he made the correct descisions every time. The first two loses, was because he was unprepared to deal with that relatively new style sen showed.

Ps: I must be ahead of the curve meta game wise, because I do the exact same thing sen did, in most those games, However, Sen did alot of things I didn't think about, spine crawler walls, brilliant :D

I think most are referring to game 4 where sen lost it for himself... and after that win things woulda been different.

MC is officially a bonjwa


Says his YEARS of dominance? nope
Says his GOLDEN MOUSE? nope
GOLDEN BADGE maybe? hmm doesn't got one
His ability to always carry his team through team league? hasn't done that either
Maybe is 70% win rate in everymatchup? oh wait he doesn't have that either

please stop tossing the word bonjwa around when the game is way to young to even have a player of that caliber yet. No player is a bonjwa yet and it will most likely be quite a while before we see someone that good show up.

You are nuts if you're saying huk is less consistent than those players as of late.

Really? How so?

Not at all now, HuK just won two very big events. But before that all he had to his name was MLG.

Wow when did NASL get so good all of a sudden? Yesterday was a car crash today its a Ferrari!


It's just by comparison, it looks great only because of how shitty yesterday was. Not saying they haven't improved but still the worse organized tournament I've ever witness in sc2.


Someone didn't get any hugs from their mom. The games were great, played on time, and they were streamed to everyone. I can think of several tournaments that didn't do that.


No where in there did I say anything bad about the games, only the organizational skills of the nasl running it, don't try any make shit out that isn't there

Idra consistent? Is that a joke?

Huk won Dreamhack, HSC3 and is doing fantastic in Code S. Yeah, what a sloppy, inconsistent player.


I'd consider Idra the most consistent of that group.

Can someone tell what does a zerg make against blink stalkers/ high temp / colossi? (This is not a question of balance). If the answer is "dont let them get that far"..ok that was plan A, whats plan B?
