Serral vs Classic will be intense.

To be entirely honest with you I'm pretty sure Classic just smashes him. He looks like he can do no wrong right now. If Serral has a close match against Classic, then.. I dunno man. He might seriously be a top 5 player in the world.

Man Trap, takes out one of the most reliable foreigner-killers only to get reverse-swept by Serral.
Well, what should I expect from the guy who allowed a foreigner to win a tournament on korean soil...


Trap is a foreigner hero. Meanwhile Hurricane knocks out foreigners and then feeds the Koreans

Trap ended Scarlett's miracle run in MLG 2014. He's still an enemy as far as I'm concerned

At least he went on to win that event instead of like beating Scarlett then going out like a buster right after

True. Fucking TRUE. I like TRUE but fucking TRUE

Sadly TL bans if you post them... so the Finnish guys have to wait for the grand final.

But when will they post them when Serral loses to Classic tomorrow? Their last chance is today ...

It's either championship or drunk santa.

Nothing in-between.

Give serral 1 more year and all his games will look like this

I’ve been hearing that Serral is a god since like 2014. I’ll believe it when I see it consistently

But he played amazing that last game that was awesome

I mean, he's been consistent this year. Dominated WCS (didn't he go like, 17-4?) and outside of the first two games here, dominated IEM WC too. He has an 88% win rate this year, going 25-4 in matches, with 3 of his 4 losses being in g5/g3 situations. He's just been a monster, and I'm kind of sad I didn't have more faith in him when I made my PR.

Idk I’m mostly just saying the “give him one more year” thing is kinda silly because I’ve been hearing “next year” about Serral for forever. Plus I think he’s already elite now.

He got the one more year already. He's by far the best foreigner.

"Zerg late game is hard but if Zerg plays it well it's very hard for Protoss to win" - Serral on point analysis.

Why is Classic's PvZ hyped so hard atm? I don't remember seeing him play many Zergs lately.

He made one mistake (a very big one though) that cost him the game. Otherwise his late game looked good.

Good players don't do big mistakes IMO :o)


Ohh, sorry, good players have to be perfect.

Look at how is Trap being devastated. Is he really that good? He lost 2 games in the lategame and goes there AGAIN and will lose AGAIN.

lmao you might be only person who will actually call players like flash and jaedong from bw bad for making mistakes

even though in this case serral was pretty much outplaying trap in terms of aggression

I don't care about BW players, I am calling out Trap being good in the lategame nonsense. He's not good.

I already said mvp and life but you didn't respond to it so i used bw examples. I guess you don't want your argument being called out

What a scintillating discussion here. I feel privileged to witness it.

I'm not sure why i'm even responding since this leads nowhere lol. I shouldn't be but the spamming of "player is bad etc" bugs me since i've seen sillier shit done by the best players of all time but that doesn't make them bad

Same thing to all other games with pro-scene really

Multi drop for zerg doesn't do well bc zerg units are very weak in small numbers.

The only time I can recall multi prop attack was when a zerg goes against showtime and drop in the main, attack the forth, then nydus in between.

Not very easy to pull off.

Classic is doing really well against all three races right now actually. Overall he's been tearing everyone apart lately.

Serral played very well in the last game even though trap made a lot of mistakes. First time in this tournament that he's been super impressive
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

Yeah I really like this quote.

What Serral pulled off is extreeeemely hard and skill intensive, but once you pull it off it's very hard for protoss

I forgot that you’re only a top foreigner if you make top 12 in whatever IEM is currently in progress

Scarlett is in top 8 of GSL no?
