Game 2 was just most basic stuff that Dear didn't have an answer to. Maru literally did 3 things: Split, stutterstep and doomdrop.

So basic! All Picasso did was paint! If you can't recognise how high level Maru's play was in that game it's on you, not the game.

I actually have to disagree with tasteless on Maru being the super-uber-gosu strategic mastermind. His win was 100% micro while Dear had the neat build that failed due to him not controlling his army properly.

maybe it's also that he has an OSL win and followed that up with a RO4 appearance

I think the hype comes from him winning the GSL and then reaching the Ro4 this season. Maybe that is just me though


OSL*

Maru is one of those players that can prepare ANY build and execute it perfectly. He also has good mechanics, and insanely good micro.

Compare to a player like Innovation or Taeja, who has a couple of builds for each matchups they're using. Maru has like 20.

He was down 16-20 workers at one stage. By the time they engaged at Dear's third he was 4 workers behind....i think that is credit to Maru and his macro no?


Pretty much. He took his third too behind all that. It was very impressive.
