Median outcome: Maru 2-3 Monster By the way, how did Maru turn the second game around? I left the series after I saw Monster ahead by so much supply, being sure that he would take the game and the set. :o He made a lot of widow mines. Also he did an attack at the third with 3 medivacs and marine-marauder while dropping the 4th with a single medivac and microing the rest of his units at home to defend the huge ling-bling-muta attack of Monster at his natural. Monster couldn't focus on the attack at Maru's natural and so he couldn't dodge the widow mines correctly and lost his third and fourth while losing too many units in the attack on Maru and getting cleaned up by the reinforcements.
He sat in his base all game and massed widow mines, then sent out a double drop with turbovacs and won the game. What was he microing in his base to defend? The widow mines killed everything.

I think you missed that point where he used marine splits and focus fire and pulling scvs to defend against Monsters army while Monster was not able to activate or snipe the widow mines.
That was much more difficult then just 'building widow mines and sending medivacs"
Give him some credit for the game.

Because Monster lost all his drones at his nat and Maru was on 3cc.

8/8/8 into 3 CC is a very safe build.

Holy shit Monster's average apm was 440

Monster had good strategy but Maru's execution and decision making (and luck on the hellion pokes) was superb.

GG, congrats to Monster!
Disappointed to not see any vipers or more swarm hosts, but Maru's mech rolled over and died too fast for it lol

Gratz Munster! I love watcing HotS different players use so different styles. You never know what you get 
|
Actually, do we know anything about the prize pool for this thing?
|
I am working currently, just hope that VODs will be released for this.
And Monster was decent Zerg in WoL, he is just a bit unknown since he didn't attend many tournaments, but I also remember him beating MC in one of the MLGs(I think?) quite convincingly.
|
How could zerg possibly win :S:S:S:S:S:S:S:S:S:S
Congrats Monster.
