Yeah "lesser" player was probably worded badly, but i think it is fair to say that Huk should be a tier above him But reading Huk's twitter, he doesn't seem to enjoy PvT these days , hehe I think that "bias" alone makes him play way worse than he should be able to | ||

Yes, but noit against opponents of HuK's/Showtimes Caliber. No offense to Bails, PandaBearMe, Midday and Kelazhur but winning against them does not tell you that much about possible future IEM performances. | ||

I don't disagree (though some would list Bails among the top NA Protosses), but he won quite convincingly, and that tournament is quickly building a strong reputation for itself. It's a notable achievement that shows how much he's on the upswing right now. | ||

Idk about Bails, he might be one of the Top NA protoss, but that does not mean that much atm. I mean there is HuK, puck, Scarletts offrace, maybe Minigun, maybe State, but in general the NA protoss scene is a lot weaker than EU/CHina. | ||
