Kexx I believe you are being quite harsh, I think it was simply some of Huk's personality showing through. And thats something that doesn't happen very often within the tournaments. Huk has made me a fan.
No point in half-assing it.

So much buzz over a terrible unit. But at least some people can enjoy Huk's inevitable demise when he decided to build the mothership.

It shows that scans need a cooldown.

He could have won that game with better positioning, a better vortex, and if he defended his natural better (maybe covering the rocks while select was picking them off would have helped). This was not throwing the game away by any means.

I'm a huge HuK fan and was really cheering for him to win. I was pretty torn about him throwing the match with a Mothership, but I also thought it was really great that he keeps the crowd's entertainment in mind. Even the messages in-game just had me cracking up the whole time I was thinking "HuK, what the hell are you doing?!"

With the number of scans that SelecT had, his chances were pretty much non-existent, especially after his first counter push failed. I must agree that the Vortex was pretty fail. Carriers would have been a more serious and more effective strategy, though.

Things like off-the-wall strategies, riling up the crowd and constant in-game chat are often incredibly affective tactics in any sport. If you've got an opponent that is clearly superior in a straight up game but is obviously mentally drained having played 21 games in a row then this is actually a really good way to throw your opponent off his comfort zone and sneak a win. IMO it was a great strategic ploy by HuK, but his opponent was cool under pressure and it didn't work on the day.

I really can't wait for the VOD to come so I can see everything he said. My SD stream messed up so much of it.

I don't get it, who won this game? Didn't look like HuK won but I'm not sure.

From the beginning when he mistakenly thought the crowd was chanting "Mothership! Mothership!" when they were actually chanting "Show the game!" he started messaging about the crowd wanting him to go mothership. Trying to play it off like he wasn't doing it. So epic. I am such a Huk fan now.

Huk lost the game, but with this game he is a champion.

He threw the game in order to give the crowd what they(Or he thought they) wanted.

You know... most of the buzz is over how he tried to play it off in the chat right?
