I don't think Huk got too destroyed by Tester. Sure he lost 2-0 but the games kinda looked like Huk could have won them. So there's definitely hope.

Definitely. He just got way too aggressive. He tried to play the whole game with a 'win NOW!' mentality and it bit him in the ass.

Just another example of how Korean players have a superior understanding of the strategic/tactical/psychological elements of Starcraft.

HuK did have the Xel'Naga tower, but Tester blinked inside the area with the high grass. Watchtowers can see through high grass (ala Steppes high yield expos), but on Lost Temple they don't have enough of a radius to see where Tester blinked.

Unless you're talking about the Xel Naga closer to HuKs base, in which case it would have been too late anyway probably.

Seriously? + Show Spoiler +
The first game was a thrashing if I ever saw one. The second one was kind of one sided, too, if you considered that Tester repelled an all in while having an expansion.
Be versatile, know when to retreat, and carry a big gun.

How was it close exactly?
+ Show Spoiler +
Game 1: HuK lost to proxy pylon due to lack of scouting for cheese. Tester killed almost all of his workers successfully. Game over. Not close.
Game 2: Of course it's going to be "close" if Tester expands early while HuK masses for a push. HuK had the advantage but even then lost because Tester outsmarted and outmicro'd him.

However, HuK played reasonably well in game 2.
Tester is on another level but as HuK actually had a chance, HuK could still be a great player.

I'm not sure why so many people are trying to bring HuK down... cuz he says he wants to become a pro? I see nothing wrong with ambition, and so far his results have been pretty decent

Tester used resources to expand.
HuK didn't.
Therefore, HuK has tech and unit quantity advantage as Tester's expansion economy advantage hadn't kicked in. HuK should have won the game when he denied Tester's expansion but Tester outplayed him.
Tester was on the back foot for most of the game but managed to come out on top.

Blink Stalkers are better at base racing. Had those Sentries not existed to delay HuK's army for an additional 30s, it would've been in his favor.
