It is overrated quite a bit. Maru showed vs top protosses that his TvP is awesome. Yes, he lost today to HerO, but you can't have 100% winrate all the time. Dream << Maru.
And no, I am not Maru fan, I am Life fan. Bittersweet day for me

Maru was #1 before today. Dream just moving up the ratings because he's 7-1 in offline TvP so far this month. His win rate in TvP in the last year is actually higher than Maru's but Maru's 2 most faced opponents are herO and PartinG who he's 11-13 and 7-15 against respectively so I'm sure that has some effect. I still think Maru is the better of the two. Dream just happens to be higher rated at the time

Maru's TvP rating on Aligulac is too low because he rarely ever plays more than a bo1 against Protoss, and usually those are then players he's highly favoured against so the rating increase afterwards isn't much. The last time he played and lost PvT in bo3+ was in his Code S group where he lost 2 series to the two best PvT players in the business, which probably cost him tons of points because Aligulac.

Nope. Dream actually does smart things and adapts to what the other payer does in a series.

If it was almost any other player instead of Life, they would have followed up with a hatchery first, not a 9 pool. So that was actually pretty smart from Dream.

Life and Maru are still better players than Dream and herO, who is better than Parting.
They hate us 'cause they ain't us.

Actually before Maru started his recent unstoppable form against protoss, TvP was his big weakness, he kept getting sniped in TvP during proleague. Dream has a much more standard TvP and is the best in terms of understanding the matchup, and has incredible ghost control Maru's TvP is insane because he has the ability to micro vs collosus non-stop, and very few protoss have played against such a style so they can't cope with it.

I think dream's TvP is better than Maru, it's just that Maru's style is incredibly flashy and it's rare to see.

kryptonite makes you play weak. Life played pretty godlike and Dream faced him head on and won.
