What lost Huk the game? Lack of ground to air to support the phoenix? Maybe more voids sooner without losing the phoenix instead of rushing collosi against a scouted 2 spire upgraded zerg air army.
Earlier voids? Maybe someone who plays P or Z can tell me.
Lost too many Phoenixes and had to replace them, then he lost time and resources which could have been used towards Void Rays for the Corruptors.

Alas, foreigners start off the day with success, but it seems like in the end, the Koreans are able to clinch it out.

Out of the 6 players that have qualified for the RO16 in WCS EU YoDa was the only one of them that I wanted to advance. I've had horrible luck with the others T_T
I was really surprised by Jjakji's results. Falling in the Ro32 is really really disappointing for him, considering how much hype everyone gave him.

at one point you will have a critical mass of phoenixes so you are trading effeciently even against corruptors but he kept microing poorly and therefore trading poorly, never reaching the amount you need, dt/archon would be also helpful at one point but he never had the room for a transition because as i said he never reached the right amount of phoenixes

He missed his window. jjakji is like a rare gem that plays well for 3 months every 2 years. He burned it on that good GSL performance before coming to Europe. Now he's back to just being an average Korean T

HerO used to be reticent to all-in, so it was a good addition to his toolkit. Hey, if I were in his position, I'd do everything I could to win as well. The worst thing a player can do is to become predictable. That being said, I'm not too worried about Hero's career despite this setback. He's talented, he's relatively young still, and he has no serious injuries. Also, Liquid is a great team for him, and you know that they will keep on sending him to tournaments and supporting him. Just a temporary roadblock for the guy. I'd like to see HerO in online tournaments again. Even if he doesn't do particularly well he doesn't have the pressure of a LAN on his shoulders and winning or going far in them boosts confidence. Or maybe it's just a mental block in WCS. He's had some stacked groups in WCS Ro32, and losing twice to Huk doesn't help. I'd like to think that Hero has become a more seasoned veteran and less prone to nerves by now, given that it's been nearly 3 years since he's been with Liquid and travelling to tournaments.
He's better than pretty much all of the people he's lost to, if both are playing to potential. He's not played well outside ATC for a while now

why doesn't anybody build storm against this mass airstyle? So you can never hit with your templar that move at the speed of a thor without the sweet hitpoints? but it's something to widdle the corruptors down so that your phoenix have a fighting chance
Templar cost a fuck ton of gas and storm isn't cheap either. You can't just throw them down to "widdle down corruptors". There isn't enough gas to go around on 3 bases.

microing poorly is being very kind to huk. corruptors flew into the phoenixes and the phoenixes just engaged directly with no micro and at least 4-5 died. that's like unacceptable submasters control. and then he just lost more and more phoenix to less horrific but still pretty bad micro, so he just didn't have enough in the end

Should have saved it for the Fall / Winter. That's when the big $$ are at: Dreamhack Winter, WCS, Blizzcon. He could have pulled the greatest Dear ever.
1st GSL
1st WCS Season Finals
1st Blizzcon
We would have people calling him bonjwa and everything

I never actually made my username in consideration of the two units, I use Phoenix a lot in my online names and I was playing around with Void here and there, so I said, "Why not combine both?" Only later would I realize my name was two Protoss units.
