Nothing to do against this kind of micro, bane targetting, stutter steps and split all perfectly timed.

Solar has destroyed him in macro games recently.

This just shows you can't go LBM vs Maru. You just can't
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

To be fair, a slim map with fewer ways to run circles around your opponent is a better map for mech. If not on Overgrowth, where else?

Lets just be happy that Mech is so bad that we don't have to witness that miserable comp in Korea.

As a Jin Air fan boy, I am really sad seeing sOs and Maru being so low in the SSL ranking. But then, I imagine the feelings of Zest's fan boys.

Well iirc it was on the horrible mappool from GSL ST so it doesn't really count, it's not suited for LotV.
I perfectly remember Solar sending his 15 corruptors repeatedly against liberator harass from aLive on Whirlwind, so it is enough to assess Maru as better :D.

The standings atm are very interesting. 4 matches remain for every player, it's getting important now. If Patience actually makes top 4 at the end

Unless everyone starts losing and he somehow gets 1 or 2 win I don't think so

I mean technically he can still win 4 matches. But yeah realistically it will be tough :D

With 4 rounds left, the exact combinations are still a little too much to casually work out. But Zest can still win 4 games. There are 45 wins available that have to be distributed among the players - some configurations are outright impossible (more than one player with 9 or 0 are obvious examples) but I think something like 8 8 7 4 3 3 3 3 3 3 should be technically possible, no? So 4 wins would still net you 4th place. But it can be already excluded by the combination of games already played of course.

Edit: if Die4ever was still around, we could make him do a calculation on this

Let's just say the odds are against him :>
I hope he at least makes top 8 though (to at least have a chance to be in next premier).

Other than that, it's interesting that Maru, Stats and Dark are all at 2-3 atm.

Game 2 of Maru vs Solar was a nice display of what Maru can do.

Game 2 of sOs vs aLive was probably the best game of the day.

Game 2 of Inno vs Patience is watchable.

Yeah it's really sad because Maru shows glimpses of champion caliber play but on LotV he ultimately disappoints.
Could have been something else if he won WESG.
