Give HuK some credit though, I guess he's a top enough player in SC2 to have a shot at the goals he wants for himself. Being from a country where gaming isn't as big, its a pretty big goal for him to make.

I want to be the guy who an up-and-coming player in the SC3 beta says he wants to be.

TLO is already the BoxeR of SC2 sorry huk

The difference being that Boxer won a lot of tournaments...


Boxer is nowhere near the top of the most tournaments won list for SC1. He's famous more for his creative play and for being the first "bonjwa".

Mmm...
Yeah, Canada isn't very big as for as gaming( there are some LANs in the west / central ) but for me I myswell be in Alaska.(NewBrunswick Canada isn't exactly a booming eSports area..)

And I agree that people should make goals, but this threads title kinda made it a doomed thread from the start.

Explain how he is not good? He's beaten some of the best of the best on a reliable basis. He's got very good mechanics, and can go one base better than any other Protoss I've seen. What makes him not good?


Vs TLO he goes 5 gate first game and wins w/e. game on LT he bascially died to 4 hellions and game on steppes he was outmatched pretty much everywhere.

Go-o-o-o-o-o-o-d, how dare he have ambitions and dreams. This kind of conceited behaviour is what ruins civilizations. He can never be the top, why even bother?! This game isn't even competitive, so why compete?! Fucking ridiculous, I tell you.

as an american of asian descent i secretly wish that somebody from the us or canada is able to dominate in a RTS game. unfortunately i just can't see it happening. even the most enthusiastic of american players always lose the motivation to play after a while. for some reason asians are just able to find playing the same game competitively for years on end fun. (hopefully somebody proves me wrong!)

The problem with some of the North American competitive players that I've seen (Artosis, Idra et al.) is they have massive chips on their shoulders. If someone flames them, they seem like they have to respond. The professional part of pro-gamer would to ignore what people say that is detrimental to your image, and praise, support, and love the fans who enjoy your content/gameplay.

If these NA Pro-gamers can do this, this would go a long way in establishing an e-sports scene in North America.

anyone see the king of the beta stream?

this is a short description of huk vs idra game 1

wall off

expand

make 9 gate ways

push and win

not saying huk is bad just found that pretty funny

game 2

make 6 gate ways on 1 base

edit: just making it clear that i think huk is probably the 3rd best toss in the world behind whitera and tester, just poking a little fun at his style. i'm a zerg and 4 gate always frustrates me

to anyone flaming HuK, stop.

its great to have such a dream and follow it. he's got guts to say it publicly, because when you admit to having such a dream, haters pop up everywhere telling you that you cant do it.

hard work > talent

haters gonna hate.

this sounds nice,
the interview itself sounds a little impromptu,
or that huk himself believes a great deal in himself
he's doing well to show his confidence! :D

I think the trash talk about him in this thread doesn't really seem justified (although lol@his attitude. calling the people who shared accounts with him 'downers', I can see he's keeping it classy!)... but this is an attack on a strawman. Nobody thinks that.

I almost always keep up to date with most threads on TL.net, and have the whole time since this first came out until now; I debated posting or not but since there has been so many issues I will.

"HuK all-ins 5gate every game"

Not really true, I use to when my computer couldn't handle 100+ supply but now that it doesn't I expand PvZ 90+%, PvT I do whats necessary (can't really FE) but almost always start off 1gate - robo, and PvP I rarely ever do this 4-5 warpgate cheese strategy most people do. I find it funny how many people consider me a "cheesy all-in" player when the truth is I rarely do either. Then again most of you don't even keep up avidly with most happenings in the scene.

I love how you write this after going 9gate 2base on BS and 6gate on Steppes of War during Day9's tournament. You are not really fooling many people when you say things like this and then proceed to do all the things people accuse you of. You are a talented player and can be one of the top NA SC2 players but I don't see why you constrain yourself to this style of play instead of improving upon other areas.
