Why do protoss players never get sentrys in late game vs this composition? They are insanely good.



It's a gas issue. Plus, sentries aren't insanely good. Sentries with tons of energy are insanely good. And if you warp them in late game they don't get that.

That said, against mass roaches, you either need good blink stalker micro or good force fields. But HuK never had a good combination for dealing with Moonglade's army, and once Moonglade had gotten that ridiculous zerg deathcloud, HuK had few options. Good HT usage would also have been a good option.


I like the expression "deathcloud".

Protoss has the original deathball, Zerg now has deathcloud, but what does Terran have?

Honestly I thought Huk was better than this, glade did not show any impressive play at all imo. Sorry to the AUS guys, no offence :D

Hopefully this series will be better.

Moonglade needs to get picked up by a new team

I don't know. Didn't he leave FXO because of life problems?

FXO kicked him out because he wasn't playing in tournaments anymore.

Wasn't it also because he was reluctant about the whole Korea thing?

Pretty much because he didn't choose to go train with the team in Korea/Indonesia or travel to tournaments due to personal issues.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

If HuK can't even beat Moonglade he will be in big trouble vs nerchio.

switch to EG > Lose games

jokes aside, amazing series and inspirational play from both huk and moonglade

He was losing games all the time before the switch, this is getting really obnoxious

Yea, it's not like weeks of negotiations and painful discussions with people who are close to you would affect a player.

When exactly do you think the deal was reached? He just won gsl matches despite all that

I don't get why people are raving about Moonglade, it wasn't like that was exactly a quality series...


people just wanted to see HuK lose


I actually thought Moonglade played pretty well in game 2 and 3. Needs refinement, but still. His timings on larva (injecting and making units) are amazing.


His injects were quite bad the last game, looked like his main queen had around 125~150 energy only 20 minutes in.


Yeah but they weren't limiting his production. He playes like a good ladder player and needs refinement in these aspects. But in general, his play is quite good. I liked how he made a point to burrow every injured roach to heal them.

Sadly, I don't think the EG curse applies to Puma, at least not when facing foreigners, but I can always hope! Need DRG in this tournament too.

So Moonglade still in good shape? I was really digging him back half a year ago, good to see he's up there still.


He's just another Zerg that abuses the broken Infestor/Broodlord combo.

Are you kidding me? Glade showed off a revolutionary style that series. Every game he went for late tech in favor of being able to reinforce quickly. Many players look for the answer to a certain problem in composition, hitting that tech unit in time to deal with the enemy's actions. Glade chose instead to bank resources and neglect tech to make sure he remaxed after engagements. I don't know if it's the best way to do it, but it certainly worked.

....except glade didn't have to remax in game 3's midgame because he didn't have any major engagements after he maxed out and still waited until 20+ for greater spire

That's not revolutionary, that's the most basic 'lets make roaches forever on 50 droens' style that zergs have used for ages
He won, not against some scrub protoss. He won against Huk. Now tell Moonglade that he didn't play well and his style didn't counter Huk's today.

I don't give a shit who he won against if the game was bad. I'll still say the game was bad.

And yes, I think sitting on 50+ drones, not expanding, delaying tech against a turtling protoss, and sitting around with a maxed army doing nothing is poor play.

I also think having an army completely untailored to handle Broodlords and proceeding to practically attack through a choke against an army that has broodlords is poor play.

Sometimes Team Liquid has the worse community I've seen so bias. Anyone in HuKs place would be stupid not to take up a life time changing chance, I'm a HuK fan before and still a very solid Huk fan. Grow up!


Im a Liquid-fan, and u r on a Liquid site


I am a Liquid-fan too, yet you have to acknowledge two facts:
a) The Team Liquid-Website is the biggest western StarCraf-Community site, as such its natural that there are many fans of other teams here. Your argument would be more valid on the TeamLiquidPro site.
b) Most of the people would decide as HuK did, if they were in HuK's position. In fact it is hard to argue that securing a good income is a bad thing.

I'm pretty sure Moonglade just played on equal bases against Huk and still won? Is that right? If so, wtf?

Not saying Huk played 100% by any means - I think he's just so much more ruthless during Code S / GSL... like ripping apart MMA's 1-1-1 with ease while TL-ers are in despair about how to defend it. Huk regularly dismantles zergs everywhere he goes. But maybe today he was in a lighter mood and wasn't at his top game (pylons in game 2 ... :p)


Take off your fanboy goggles, MMA messed up the 1-1-1 HARD and he got to ro16 this season by beating SangHo twice...
