EG huge fail nothing. we all know allins do not determine skill in the aggressor side. zerg all in'd and huk happened to have 1 cannon. 2nd game was obviously z favored and huk made SO many useless sentries All ins do take skill. It's not just by being unlucky that idra's all ins seemingly fail every time. They require timing, concealment, micro, and follow ups.

I'm sorry but comments like this are very boring. This "free spot" you're referring to changes nothing, both Idra and Huk have consistently proved that they can compete on an even footing with top tier Koreans at MLG and other events.

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
The butthurt hate is strong with one. why do you get off by hating him so much.

At least build a couple more cannons. Wat. When a zerg deliberately builds a closer hatch to your base 99% of the time he is all-inning you.
Yeah, he's not putting a base closer to his opponent to go econ.

I always laugh when I see Idra say ZvP is unwinnable when at the same time some Zergs are stomping Protoss in the GSL.

So has HerO, PuMa and a range of other foreigners, but that doesn't mean they belong in Code S.

Well, Stephano is confirmed to be the only good foreigner player. Also, ouch, EG must not be very happy about losing all of their GSL players...

1+ agreed. allins need to be well designed with the exact timings and also micro.

Huk was legit code S back then, idk what people are talking about. JUST BECAUSE SOMEONE STARTS SLUMPING DOESN'T MEAN THEIR ACHIEVEMENTS ARE WORTHLESS. He won a lot of tournys and placed deep quite often, and he got code S and stayed code S. I don't think I ever considered him a top 10 player, but he was definitely one of the top foreigners. Shit changes, but saying Huk has always been bad is the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

Yes.

To all complaining about Protoss on Bel'shir, we've seen genius beat DRG on this map...
Even just today we saw ZenexAvenge beat Idra AND it looks like Seed is putting up a good fight / is looking like he could beat Monster on the same map. Please.

Depends on how ample preparation by an opponent affects his chances, I'd say. His style is very strong, but it's not standard, and being not standard there might be serious holes in them. In general though I get the sense that Stephano is a better player than IdrA and HuK - he has an X factor about him and the way he plays that I don't often see from pros.

Shows how hard the competition has gotten or how low the foreigner standard is now. :/ Sen impressed me in ZvZ, we still got morrow left to morrow going to win vs maru and probably lose vs happy. 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
I agree. I fancy Morrow's chances, especially when he plays both sides of this match-up. I hope at least, I like Morrow
