HSC is easily a lot harder compared to WCS stops and has players present that can win everything each time.


This is so very true.

Keep up the great work! HSC is an awesome event to watch every time, and there are lots of us who think so.

HSC is hands down the best tournament to watch since WCS has been segregated. Not sure if I will come (would be worth it only if I can convince some friends to join) but definitely will try to watch, despite somewhat having to be on July 2 already in Chile

Can we get the holy five of the best awkward cast ever? Rum, coke, 2GD, iNcontrol and Apollo, please? At least the Apollo part, please (I would love to see Apollo on the couch again)

Edit> I expect rum, coke and Goeff to be there
I imagine France should be able to take this unless Lilbow is busy practicing for Starcraft III. | KadaverBB is my fairy ban mother.

I think Rum, Coke and Kebab are always the first and most important invites :D

I manage the invites since forever and I am kind of both personally offended and sad that some people feel that HSC has seemingly bad competition and would be fun only.



No idea what you're talking about. Most of us definitely realize HSC is very competitive and not just for fun. You'll always have some people who believe stupid things about anything.

Anyway hope we have one of the best lineups ever this time =)

HSC has the best format of any tourney, bar none. 8-player groups with round-robin Bo3, with Bo5 dual-tournament playoffs. Makes the GSL or Global Finals look like a dice roll by comparison.
As for depth and breadth of field, HSC 18 was like a GSL Ro8 mixed with the top of WCS, and easily one of the best tourneys around. It had a stronger field than WCS Spring '19. HSC had four Jin Air Green Wings players and none finished in the top 8 of the group phase. GSL Season 2 '19 had five JAGW (incl Maru) and only one (Trap) reached Ro8 (Trap was T13th-16th in HSC).
I love the personalities of the players in HSC, give me Solar on the mic any day, some analysis from Lambo, or some humble, dry, boring commentary from Serral. It seems to be better for great casting with players right at hand for interviews after matches.
Bring HSC to the US!

We'll probably get the B-list of Koreans again

Bunny, Polt, Impact, MC, True, Fantasy, Alive, those level of Koreans

Please don't get offended these are just koreans I pulled from the top of my head

Now that I think about it

MC at a homestory cup again?!!??!? MAKE THIS HAPPEN TAKE


B-list Koreans again? What like last year? With Innovation, Zest, Trap, Cure, Solar & Soo?
Or Patience, Parting, MMA? Or maybe you meant Stats, Byun or Gumiho.

Point being over the past couple years HSC has had some pretty good Korean's playing. Hardly those who i'd consider B-listers. If history is any indicator Take will bring the best he can get. Every year before the event some people will comment that so & so isn't there & every year HSC ends up being one of the best events of the year.
I have no doubt that this HSC will be amazing as well... can't wait!

I don't agree with the criticism as HSC gets the best players it can, but Patience, Parting, and MMA are very much B-list Koreans.

They're A-tier names even if their skill is B or C tier right now at least. They have A tier legacy


And parting can still crown himself A-tier if he wins this GSL.
