He had a relatively unimpressive code A run, and hasn't done exceedingly well in Code S yet. If he takes down his group, then definitely deserves to be on here. Puzzle has just impressed me greatly so far. | ||

Puzzle has just impressed me greatly so far. Yes lots of people are bised to Huk for being a foreigner, but I usually root for the koreans haha. Huk gets to train in korea with the oGs team and get mentored by MC, best toss in the world. Add that on to 1st place homestory, 1st place dreamhack, and Code S title i think it beats puzzle's Code A run this year. | ||

There are a number of foreigners who are considered to be some of the best players period (by the Koreans), like Thorzain and HuK. Thorzain in particular has a number of Korean Pro players (like MC and MMA) on record saying how amazingly good he is. | ||

Pretty sure you still stood a chance though! | ||

Line is very impressive too... he really showed me that having lots of mutalisks can be a better way to spend your gas than to make lots of banes... Mutalisks can tear apart small forces of marines/medis/tanks Thors are the big problem, but having tons of mutalisks can magic box to victory | ||
