I like how Tastosis were praising Rain's every move as Maru perfectly zoned out Rain's harassment HTs and killed every push without losing a ghost.


Yeah, Maru didn't get to the finals by cheesing (other than innovation of course). Prior to that he played some great macro games which people seem to forget. He literally gets 0 credit.

some sc2 fans have a strange hero worship thing going on where it's almost impossible to get credit for a win unless the entire scene is already unanimously fellating you


you mean like everyone with maru right now?

maru has a totally appropriate amount of hype right now for what he's accomplished, and it's tempered by a lot of people basically saying he's a no name cheesy fluke. not sure what you're on about unless you're just rain/toss biased

Let's not give Maru took much praise for that game, he was in an auto concave due to his position and rain basically handled him the templars :p


Well, lets not give much praise to Rain for beating Maru at 2 games. One of them was just maru basically handing his bio units to storms and second game he made some funky drop play. Not a big deal.


I'll give you that, if I'm allowed to use my SKT fanness to try and discredit a win, I think you should be able to too. BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD, EAT HIS SOUL RAIN! :D

Thanks. I'm new to SC2, looked to me like a quite strong contain for BroodWar standards, but I guess Terran knew he had to spam fuckton of units to free himself and with shorter supply route, he just had much more stuff in place to break that Toss ball.

Rain picked probably the worst spot to keep pushing into. Huge wide open area means Maru just had to spread his units and wait for Rain to overextend. Rain was in a great spot being on 4 base and was probably about to spam gateways but his position on the map was wayyyyyy favored for Maru. If he went to deny the 4th he would have won by just slowly strangling Maru :3

I knew before this series that Maru can do macro game, Akilon Wastes isn´t just a map for terran to do that.


Yeah so many chokes, chokes are good for Storm and aoe damage, this map allows Terran to spread out the units. Maru won engagements in wide open areas.


Confirmed.

Akilon Wastes SUCKS for TvP.

But Starstation sucks for PvT


I bet it does.

Nothing new here, players winning on the maps favored for them. Maru cheesed on Bel'Shir which is REALLY good for Protoss in TvP.

He's playing this series like a pro. Anyone that can't see that doesn't watch enough.

One really notices the difference when Tastosis is at the venue or "piggybacking". On a live venue, they would've screamed their lungs off when Maru breaks out.

Kinda sad

They do seem a little off today overall. They praised one mediocre storm by Rain, while the true story was that he clumped his army too much and was destroyed by perfectly placed EMPs.


Tastosis is the post pro protoss casting as you can get. Even when there's no protoss playing they can praise how good protoss is. That's one of the reasons I dont like them



To be fair they've both played Protoss for years. No one can hide their biases 100%, I think they do a pretty good job.

Naniwa at 9am PST. All that matters.


I was a big Nani fan before going to Dreamhack Open in Stockholm, but after being in the crowd when he played Leenock in the finals I'm more like

NANIWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA


Can't even imagine how amazing that crowd would have been if Nani had won. He looked so good that tournament. (Leenock is pretty awesome to be fair)
