Alright, I get the intro video now.

The abandoned building is Rain's mind. Which is why you see Rain sitting atop of it at the start. As Maru walks through, dust starts to fly, showing decay and Rain's psyche crumbling under his pressure. At the end you see red dust thrown at Rain's face, Maru looking into Rain's eyes, showing that he is on the same level and has gotten inside Rain's head. The walking up of the steps is Maru's working of his way up Rain's psyche.

Deep, OGN. Deep.


This sounds like someone who convinced himself that Space Odyssey has a deep meaning.

Life got it for being a royal roader.

Was that back then when he won, or later (in retrospection of his royal road win)?


After winning the Ro32 the season after

Ah alright, big thanks for sharing! Indeed not so difficult to miss then.

Even before his ro32


The picture was taken after he won the group

LOOOOOL i loved that in wow TSG vs priest


What is TSG? Link? Played wow but was a looong time ago.


It's a stupid acronym that I don't remember the meaning for Warrior Death Knight HolyPaladin comp.


Ah, was it like the hard counter to a certain arena comp?

that picture was used by the wow pvp community featuring TSG (warrior dk holy pala) rolling over warlocks and/or priests because back in the wotlk days they were actually easy to kill targets


ty!


Yes, and it also only had 1 strategy which was to train the squishiest target, it was a no-brain comp.

TSG stood for The Steel Gauntlet I think.



TSG meant "the super gosus" referring to the first warrior dk pala team which playing in an ESL tournamant, which i believe was occelote and his crew. it was only brainless to certain extent, but this is too far from the actual topic here


It was way brainless compared to the actual hard comps to play (RMP, WLD). The Steel Gauntlet was Veevs teams name and they Blizzcon with it. Dumb comp either way the name swings.

It had bad matchups, my friends played it to the top european level during season 7 and 8.
Some comps can just litteraly outburst them, like RLS and stuff.

Still, everyone love making fun of how nobrain it was =d


Wizcleaves were equally retarded. Not to mention hybrid healing.


blizzcon was way way way later, they did dislike the term the super gosus maybe and changed that up a bit
rmp was hard at that time, but not vs melee cleaves
tsg was hard vs caster teams and easier to play vs lock/priest based balance teams

No matter what Maru does, he just can't get people to think he'll do well.


Look at the first two matches?

This is entirely Rain botching it.


we can play the game the other way around too. First two matches, nerves came to Maru and then he got focused.


No. No. no.

Ignoring the silly two rax. He needlessly suicided his army in game 4 and went for some weird immortal sentry all in.

If he can get his head back, he'll play a nice relaxed game and just out perform Maru. I've seen nothing special from Maru yet.


No, Maru really did throw game one with the anti-greed, taking a slower third than Protoss and having no ghosts at all for storm.

I want some of what you're on. Maru has as much chance of winning three games as Liquid has of winning the international.


Found this gem catching up on the LR thread.

Gonna go bet on Liquid for the international now.

that's fake right?


It's real. You do have to fight John the translator to get it though.


It's "real" in the sense that it is a sword, it is steel, and it's heavy. However, it is probably wholly ceremonial, with an dull edge and not forged to withstand actual combat.

Source - I collect sharp pointy things. I think the GSL Code S 5-time trophy they had ready in case MVP won would do better.
Yes, I email sponsors... to thank them. Don't post drunk, kids. My king, what has become of you?

good memories, i love how orangemarmalade numberone and whatever rogue they got for the next tournament always won vs the op comps


I still remember the first time they made a tournament at Blizzcon for Arenas, and Orangemarmelade finished a 1v2 in Nagrand Arena
All of that on a 240p stream.

Man, that game was so much memories.
