Yeah I don't understand, IdrA's usually so on top of everything but these last few games he's really been falling apart. He's been winning handily but that won't fly against the Koreans he's gonna have to face, or even some of the top-tier Europeans.


He hasn't been practicing a lot for a long time, its starting to show

Been falling apart, but winning handily. Seems you need a new choice of words there.

What he means is even if huk takes down a korean, it's not indicative of the foreign scene moving forward. The foreigners who train in america aren't putting up a good fight.

Quite honestly, the foreigners of America (and EU) have never put up a good fight vs Korean trained. Naniwa and Idra are actually the best players out there with no Korean practice anymore (but they've been under performing this entire tournament). There is no Moon at this tournament.
the farm ends here

it's called Huk's law. Any discussion about korean players will inevitably end up as a debate between Huk's proper starcraft nationality.

nationality has nothing to do with it. simple as that.

No I don't.

Just because he's winning doesn't mean he's keeping it together. Bitter pointed out a lot of queens that had 75+ energy. That can probably be attributed to his muta micro, but still missing those injects will completely screw over IdrA if he has to remax quickly. This wasn't the case against Cruncher or Sjow but it doesnt mean it wouldn't have bit him in the ass against better players.

This tourny has actually been kind of interesting as far as training/nationality goes.

Pretty much Korean training has paid off, but it hasn't been the only thing seeing success. Nationality has seen less to do with it and it is more training.
What does it matter how I loose it?

No...you have no idea what falling apart means. Falling apart is choking your guts out and completely cracking. Not having leftover energy on queens. The melodramatic attitude here is comical.

What's surprising about that?
Who seriously thought nationality matters in terms of skill?
