As a Protoss player, this game was extremely exhilarating to watch. Too bad it hinged completely on Thorzain making a mistake like not being prepared for DTs.
Actually I think it hinged more on the hidden expo that huk managed to take, and thorzain containing at huk's natural without knowing about it. Huk basically took a risk and cut units to get his hidden expo up, gambling that thorzain won't fight up the ramp. It paid off.
Well done by both players, huk in particular for that game

I hope idra watched that game and learned something.

HuK makes me want to switch back to protoss =(

Must buy coke zero.........
Huk did amazing, he used fear to stop thorzain from attacking him lol.

Tanks outrange Immortals and Stalkers?

That was amazing! Wanna see a replay of it tho to see exactly how he broke Thorzain's contain...
that's the thing, he never broke it.. thorzain just gave it up and went back home.
That game was more about thorzain throwing it away than huk coming back :/

thats gotta be one of the greatest comebacks sc2 has seen.

That was boss. Next will be 1-1-1 All-In tho :/
The last time thorzain did a clutch 1/1/1 he failed, he was denied 3rd white dude all kill ever against MVP because he tried to 1/1/1 genius and genius lol killed him he'll probably try to force a macro game and huk will probably try to shut it down quickly.

why tournaments keep using metalopolis? there are new and refreshing maps.

How is making two DT's a great comeback?  What about... ThorZaiN playing really really bad. Not pushing further, not making another CC, not making turrets in time.
There was one way for P to win and he has done it before, Im really dissapoint (!) in ThoRZaiN.

The first thing huk did after his nexus died was warping in 3 sentries
He could not break the contain, but there was no chance of thorzain getting up that ramp

HuK didn't win that because of skillfull play it was Thorzain who threw the game away. Most decent terrans wouldn't lose from that position So who do u call a decent terran?
Honestly, even some diamond terrans could have won that game at that point.
Thorzain really did some unfortunate decisions (skip the ebay for so long).

Rofl Thorzain, you had that game WON, how could you even wait so long that the DT shrine FINISHED
|
common, couldn't Thorzain give us a epic end battle, not just gg  well was really impressive by Huk! We call Marineking The comeback Terran! HuK has become The comeback Protoss!

Most decent terrans wouldn't lose from that position HuK did everything right that game, from his decision making to constant harass of the army with stalkers, there aren't many people who could've pulled that off.
Conversely there aren't many high level terrans who could have lost in that position.

If you do a contain you need to check for hidden expos
And account for the only tech switches that can somehow make you lose the game. I just don't understand it, he plays such a measured style most of the time, even in this game he realised the possibilty of a counter was high so left a siege tank and a clump of marines back to defend. I just can't understand how he didn't account for a dark shrine somewhere ><
