Innovation should be confident in his macro and play safer, and catch up should Maru go greedy.

I've no idea why you would be greedy when you are down 2-0 to all-ins.

It's like Fantasy v Hyvaa all over again.

Bye Innovation.

This has nothing to do with the skill ceiling, it's "just" the absurd coinflips issues of TvT.



Opening rax -> CC against a cheesy player like maru is just pure logic. Innovation has no excuse other than he isn't reacting to the play style of his opponent.


1 rax FE actually doesn't hold double 11 very well-_-

The fastest 4-0 was MC/Jinro from Open Season 3. It was about an hour.


oh yeah how could I forget that. That was such a heart crushing stomp for me :/

I had high hopes for Jinro. He got him next season though :D

Exactly, opening CC first after just getting cheesed twice is like not getting detection vs Inca, because surely he won't go DTs again this time, right...right?

Hello moron. If you can't adapt to an opponent you will never achieve greatness. INnoVation must be in fucking awe that he is down this many games. He might have gotten full of himself?

and this is kinda why i personally stopped watching sc2. things like this is just stupid.

You do know what stopped means right? You're watching it right now, right? It might be a game with a lower skill ceiling than BW and a million all ins, but it's still entertaining. A lot of people are laughing their ass off right now.

BW era equivalent too:


"He won't do it again"
"He won't do it again"
"He won't do it again"

Oh, looks like I just lost the tournament.

Maru truly outshines hyvaa, Shine, Line, Cymbal even himself in previous rounds as the most cheesy villain there is

How the fuck is this 'awesome'?

For anything other than a reaction to Innovation being overhyped, these games have been fucking woeful.

It's not an absurd coinflip three times in a row if you go for unsafe builds or miss scouting everything. Innovation looks a little bit lost, though Maru is inside his head with a sledgehammer as well. Innovation may have been on the receiving end of some bad luck, but no way was that the deciding factor all three times.

Only the CC rax gas build in this game was unsafe... And without a Reaper (which means no Marines to hold certain things), you can't scout anything before third scan without killing your own build order.

I like Maru but I'm actually hoping that Innovation wins 4-3. Winning with only cheese is boring.

Ah this is awesome.

@graNite: Please for the love of god stop ruining our community with the completly and uterly retarded mindset of only makro games being real games, or good games, or w/e kind of retarded bullshit you can find. This is a fucking tournament with a shit tone on the line, and unless you are the stuipidest player in history you will do whatever gives you the highest chance of winning. So no he shouldn't l2p makro, because guess what he could probably beat anyone in this thread in a makro game using only his mouse, you should learn to do what is necessary and ignore your views on what is right and wrong, because maru is showing us that you can literally beat anyone in a bo7 if you just prepare better and do the correct builds. If he would do what you want him to because it's more "honorable" or any bs like that he would be down 0-2 right now and not up 3-0, so honestly rather than feeling that he ruins your day you should enjoy the fact that this young kid literally out prepared the best player in the world.



So fuckin well said.

Props to him.
