While it may not be true, I found it quite humorous. Nice interview though, go HuK! | ||

Few days ago I have translated this article into Chinese and posted on wfbrood.com, and now I bring the feedbacks from China back to here. Some think that 90% win rate of Huk is so impressive. But over time, there will be more gosu appear. Others think may be this time the western people will have some advantages compared to east (I think he means that even it is still in beta, there appears a lot of famous sc2 progamers in the western world and in this case will benifite the western e-sports). But, on the other hand, there do exists a huge distance between Korea and other countries. What's more, a netizen pointed out it is stange that Huk haven't mentioned Grrr..., who is a famous Canadian SC1 progamer. | ||

these guys don't play this game because its fun to them(it might be fun)they play cuz its a job. theres no point in putting in hours and hours of practice if you don't benefit from it. i've watched huks games and hes not very good at all. i mean when your main strat revolves around the easiest rush strat a monkey can execute ,this is coming from a protoss player who was 50th US when phase 2 went down, you got no shot. | ||

He's "hitting a slump" because other top players have figured out his rather one-dimensional style, which can be easily exploited. He's a technically good player, but people who are technically good and also creative will always get ahead in the long run. | ||

I don't think huk performed any bad in the tournament. he didn't do any bad overall. he was facing top notch players and did pretty good, tbh. of course he is not at same level of all those progammers, but if you expected someone who has never had a progammer schedule and BW background to be competting at the same level of idra, tester, white-ra, etc., you must be crazy. lol he played seriously for only a month... don't be so harsh... the only thing we could get pissed with him is his aspiration of being a boxer, but he obviously had no idea of what boxer meant to the community and to E-Sports. remember that white-ra, tester, idra and all those people have been playing as professional for years... | ||

I've seen him BM on enough streams to not like him personally. Everything I've ever heard about HuK has been negative. Between whatever went down with him getting banned for soliciting donations by threatening to quit streaming or w.e. to his very public hissyfit over not being invited to the HDH, he just always comes across as kind of a loser as an individual, which keeps me from being able to respect or support him as player. | ||

In no way am I affiliated with HuK, but you guys should ease up and cheer for the players that represent NA instead of bashing on them. I assure you HuK and many others are capable of competing and beating anyone in the EU or Asia server at this point in time. | ||
