Sadly after all this time with so many tournament threads it still is not clear to many users on this site. There are several types of posts that are not acceptable in tournament threads. Any form of:
Imbalance whine/Player bashing/Caster bashing/Stream complaining
Will result in two day to a week long bans even for first offenses. Please stick to the games at hand and enjoy yourselves with a beautiful event such as this and the free service that comes with it. |

I'm pretty sure he now prefers kimchi over bacon.
Bite your tongue, knave! Bacon is the life force of the Westerner!

Not before the end of the event, because you saw what happens if you release the replays right after the games. LAAAAG!

annoying voice? its a speech impediment (rhotacism). he's doing a fine job casting.
edit: famous, successful people that also have rhotacism: Barbara Walters, Jonathan Ross, Matt Bellamy (lead singer of Muse)

It was still a great game. While he is not code A currently, Moon has had a very solid showing outside of Korea, and against other Koreans in them. In the IEM Season V championships, he dropped Squirtle, before losing to Ace in the finals 2-3. He displayed a solid showing in MLG. He is currently not a "top" Korean, but is very capable of taking a series off of one.

I'm sure he's struggled with that his entire life. He's actually a very good caster in my opinion. Intelligence is quite powerful. GO HASU SO THORZAIN CAN GO THROUGH! If Hasu wins, Thorzains out. I thought.

how is only losing to HuK considered "bad" yet someone losing to Merz and SaSe is considered "best player in world"???

I am pretty sure people won't mind you missing a game here or there given what you do. Hardest working poster in all of the LRs.

Last Code S : HuK knocked into Up and Down by InCa (no.2 PvP in the world after MC, and eventual finalist) and July (close game with a legend).
Up and Down he has 1 chance vs either MMA or MKP, and beats MMA (one of the few people that has beaten MMA in a Bo1/Bo3 in the last 2 months...).
Then he gets Polt (eventual finalist) in the R32 of Super Tournament who has the best vP in the world.
So many haters don't realise how unlucky HuK is. He could easily advance in any of those scenarios if he wasn't matched with the eventual finalists or gosus, and even then he had a good chance to beat Polt and July in those 2 matches.
Gogogo HuK fighting. My tip for Dreamhack :D
A nice post but still somewhat inaccurate. Sure he had InCa and July in his groups, but that's based on the GSL Code S selection process, not random draw. HuK had very little say in how his group would shape up, and obviously would shape up in a way that didn't benefit him (if it benefitted him, the previous players would not have selected that way)
Sure he lost to Polt in ST, but most players in RO32 are pretty good. You could also argue that he was lucky in getting the worst PvP player (San) in R1 and avoiding PvP (his worst matchup) in R2. Or that he didn't run into Nestea/MC/etc. etc.
HuK is good, but he's where he belongs, low Code S material.

Is anybody in posession of links with SASE games? I've missed them. Seen only one vs grubby ;\
