I'm really annoyed that the casters kept saying it was 'losers choice' when I was looking at the maps to be played earlier today.

^ This exactly.
You can't do a clean, hard hitting build AND play safe.
That being said, the hatch placement combined with the early gas should have been enough for a player of huk's caliber to realize what was going on and get those cannons. Huk probably should have said "i will scout with a zealot and stalker to see what's going on, but if they don't see, i'll get an extra cannon"

HuK got a free spot back in like July then qualified for up and downs then code S then stayed in Code S for 3(?) seasons before getting sent to code A
He never made it through the original qualifier (you know the hardest part of GSL where if you lose 1 series you're out).

You can watch both streams at once without a ticket asw ell
I rather watch VODs than the low quality mess that is actually getting worse and worse. Yeah, it's my choice and I will get spoiled some. Can't help it.

GG, fuck. All foreigners out of Code S. Sen doesn't count. Why wouldn't Sen count? Oo cause he's not white apparently i think its because taiwanese play on the same server as koreans, still non-korean is non-korean, so saying he doesn't count can either be laid out as a tad racist or just ignorant. Haha YES GOD YES, pull out the racism card, it always works. In all seriousness though, Sen isn't a true "foreigner" because he doesn't have the same playing conditions.
Both HuK and IdrA are training in Korea. Same with Sen. Different playing conditions? Not since a few months ago.
Sen is a foreigner. As is XiGua and MacSed, who no one seem to mention.

I laugh at blaming the pool. Huk was like the most lucky player in the entire GSL, always got away with lucky group draw/opponents throwing games. Thx god it has ended last season. Time for him to disappear into obscurity

foreigners are loosing so easily its not even funny anymore. They seem really predictable and not creative compared to the koreans.

Huks earned COde S. Hew got a free spot almost a year ago and has proved that he belonged there for many seasons. Idra is theone who got a free ride into code S

Goodjob Sen and July! Nooo Losira :'(
All of todays games have been disappointing, hope this last series displays some good play from both of the players.

i dont see huk getting back in next season... chilling on a huge salary, he doesn't seem to have the same motivation as before, that or he hit his skill cap and everyone else is just getting better, but I doubt that. Maybe dropping out of code A will motivate him again. I hope he starts grinding again, because he was doing really well before joining EG.
Or he could come back home. And by home I don't mean Canada.

HuK has been into code S since january the hard way, back then there were no free spots so get your facts straight. Idra was put into S automatically.
HuK was given a Code A spot back then though

Huk actually got a free Code A spot after he failed to qualify for Code A, but he went from A to S the "legit" way.

i seriously think only stephano has a chance in code A atm...

Idk, I agree Morrow should beat maru but he did do very well against Happy during the TAC. Sure he didn't pull off the win but he did VERY well. Given the amount of training he has I don't see him winning out of the realm of possibility I hate to say it, but Happy's TvZ record speaks for itself Then again, it's there because he does the most generic TvZ builds ever, except for his innovation through cheese
I'm not saying he's the favorite, because that's obviously happy. I just think its not outside the realm of possibility for morrow to 2-1 him

You lose one series in Code A and your out so I don't see your point

Huk was seeded into Code A and didn't have to play the qualifiers.
