its not impossible. nada was an amateur before he turned pro. oov was pubstomping the ladder before scouted by boxer. and so were all progamers.

When I watched the replay myself his mechanics amazed me and he had such good map control, I hope to see more from him! I just hope if he joins a team he doesn't change his name so we can all follow him

Yeah and NEX isn't strict which is why it is so big. They often accept frankly, bad players, gold/plat, etc. Zenex is very professional though, at least before they fell apart.

And to elaborate on streaming, his internet isn't very good so you'd be looking at a 360-480p stream and that's only if he doesn't experience a lot of "jittering" like the stream constantly freezing because the servers are in california. Not to mention that he would be streaming at a very awkward time for most Americans and some Europeans, because of the time difference. Kind of surprised people went from thinking he's jaedong to not caring that much.

haha I remember the thread being full off "he must be an ex-BW bonjwa!! no one else could do this!!"

Scary what some overenthusiastic fans + groupthink + confirmation bias can do to a thread.

I guess the replay must be really impressive as the decision making and Arias play was rather underwhelming from the Vods point of view.
If you're not getting better faster than everybody else, you're getting worse.

That's a bit different then, I think By. only accepts top amateurs, though not too sure about the Korean amateur BW scene.

but what he says doesnt make much sense, the way he played it was either for fun or he didnt understand how archpm toilet works(how come someone who aspires to be a sc2 progamer doesnt know that?), thats why everyone speculated about bw pro because his mechanics on this replay (multitasking/apm) is better than ANY else available. Drg/nestea isnt even close to this mechanics.

Can someone contribute anything to this post? Is it true?

2. How can you call someone amateur and not mention that he is on NEX? you make it sound like he just picked up starcraft and plays like an hour a day.....

Is it just me or does Huk doesn't seem to play like Huk? 0 aggression, very very very slow rise to 200 pop, etc.
If you label every single aggressive strategy 'cheese', you are officially declaring yourself an incurable mental retard.

How aggressive do you wanna get with a fast third and an completely unharassed zerg who has a pack of mutas on the map.
He used a warpprism and didn't build colossi until very late. Enough of a sign of huk for me.

I love how everyone's speculation regarding his playstyle was proved to be complete nonsense, just as I suspected. People were saying that he plays like someone with BW pro mechanics but with no understanding of SC2. Just further evidence that nobody actually knows what they're talking about, even Day9 a lot of the time.

If there's anything I learnt from Mass Effect 2, it's don't f**k with Aria.

While I wouldn't say he is quite Code S (yet), he definitely looked very promising in that famous game, solid mechanics, impressive map control and awareness, excellent multitasking (never missing unsynced injects), and overall great play to go toe-to-toe with HuK.

He's better than most non-GSL pros.

For those who haven't seen the Huk vs Aria game, it caused a lot of silly speculation in the community from husky's cast to Day9's daily, as well as everything else in general.


A lot of speculation about what?

Cool interview. At least that ends the speculation about AriA.

I really hope oGs picks up AriA, they're lacking on the Zerg front and AriA clearly has some pretty awesome mechanics.
