After a series like that I imagine Maru goes and immediately reads the balance patch notes again

I don't understand how top level protosses can lose to terran right now. A-moving up a ramp against mines+liberators and still winnning is cringeworthy
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

Classic narrowly lost to Inno (2-3) in the IEM Katowice qualifiers. Aside from that he has lost 0 series against Terran since 4.0 happened.

Stats has also lost 0 series against Terran since 4.0 happened.

Come on, this match doesn't even matter, both of them are qualified for the main event, so the only consequence of Maru's loss is that Protoss is going to be nerfed MORE into oblivion in the next patch, and Maru can take all the easy Chinese money once again.

In the first two games I was like "Dude, don't 2-base all in every game".
Then the third game happened. 16 more days.

Despite the production quality, there's still 18K for first place. Almost double that of IEM Shangai or Super Tournament

I'm sure the players care (a lot) about the prize money, but I personally couldn't give a shit. It's not like I'm getting any money, nor will top Koreans like Maru starve if they don't win huge prizes. WESG and Pyeongchang are just a circus show.

Personally, I'm glad that the balance patch will drop in time for the GSL to get serious with the Ro16, and for IEM Katowice, the big tournaments that actually count for something in terms of skill.

True, but the idea that Maru doesn't lose out at all here is still wrong. And I'm hoping at least 2 balance patches before katowice at least

Such a shame no matter how many patches we get before the main event there's not gonna be a TVT final again, the OP races are literally stealing money from hard-working Terran players.

Well, the balance patch goes live on January 29.

On January 31, 2017 the Liberator was nerfed following the 3.8 balance issues in PvT. The next nerf (for WM) did not go live until March 7, after Katowice 2017 was finished. Judging by that schedule, I'd guess that we will know the contents of the next balance patch before Katowice 2018, but it will not yet be live.

And who knows where the meta will be by then? The Stalker nerf will certainly help Terrans out, and I for one hope that it will be enough.

Btw, about Has, I found a song for him:

The Has (from The Fox)

Dark goes slow,
Byun three rax,
Shin Hyung driving and Maru splits.
herO smile,
soO hatch roach,
and the TY expand too much.
polt basetrade and Solar cheese,
and Reality build town hall.
But there's one build,
That no one knows,
What does the Has play?
