Korean Protoss like who? Hero?

Damn, wp from maru. His control is insane!

Every time I watch Maru he does something where I'm like "NO WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" and then he just wins anyway.... This guy is just too fucking good :D

wrong. terran was prepared with 2 turrets and marines. too bad oracles can get free kills anyway because it zips around like lighting. i didn't know that probes + MSC = defended location.

Sweet old school play from Maru. This has been a good series. Time for my 4 - 2 Maru prediction to come true.

Bo7, so sit back and enjoy!
Or stand up like me and jump in excitement

Maru with the sick riposte..
I love how he poked at three different areas, found a weakness and then just drove him into that weakness. Protoss can't fight in several small groups I feel and Maru seemed to have taken advantage of that. The amount of damage that drop did, beautiful.

okay classic stop going phoenix colossus, just win normally
Pretty much go into lategame PvT where Protoss has the advantage. Problem is preventing Maru from killing you before that.

short break, so what, 20 minutes?

why wasting money on phoenix instead of cannons on the ledge of the main base? he should have like 6 cannon and be saved instead of using phoenix to kill medivacs, classic decision on this map was really bad.

By the way, I feel that Koreans in foreign lands aren't as strong as Koreans in Korea.

No fucking idea what you guys are on about. Nowhere do races have to have equal (whatever the fuck that means in SC2) harass opportunities at all points in the game. More to the point, stop the BS quibbling, please. It's a great series. Enjoy it.

Maru deserves to win this imo, what he has to do to win is more impressive than how Classic wins his games
