Guess I really haven't been following SC2 closely enough.

he did win some of these smaller na lan tournaments. and got into the final of the red bull training grounds. it's true.

Getting to the final =/= winning.

Only thing Huk has won this year was Lan Hammer. Not to take anything away from that win but he has most certainly not won "several tournaments" this year.

And the MLG Summer Invite.

Honestly, this is all documented on SC2 earnings...

Loved the documentary!
It was awesome to get to hear what Alex Garfield said to Idra in the booth when he played Boxer!
I remember watching that tournament and noticed that Idra was tilting when he started to lose so many games to Boxer and then we got to see that Garfield went in there and talked to him and he won the game after! Always wondered what he said to Idra to make him win the final game ;D

who else is a top NA player in terms of the same accomplishments? Huk has had a good 2013, not as great as when he was winning MLGs or playing in GSL but still much better than usual.

Well, 2011 it was mostly true, with the notable exception of Stephano. At least they did show Stephano in clips.

You guys being overly critical need to look at this from the perspective of someone who knows little to nothing about esports. A documentary like this is made to bring awareness and draw attention to something, and I think this does a great job of that. It's engaging and captures the audience's attention.

I just realized the "MurloC Hwaiting"-poster we can see in the NASL season 3 clips was also present at the WCS global finals this weekend.

Thanks for the link!

Finally SC2 has its own good documentary. Reminded me a lot of the National Geographic documentary on Brood War, which is actually what got me into starcraft in the first place.

The documentary is a bit outdated, but it still gets the message across.

Sad to see Idra being so down.
True competitive player right there.

If you think you're good, you suck. If you think you suck, you're getting better.
