Shout out to Rapid, who sticks around and watches most sc content live in the studio. This guy must have made the most cheerfulls by now.

Yes I was surprised to see how on point he was calling out the builds. He called out the doudle robo proxy and the 5 rax in games 1 and 2. Well played to Valdes and Rapid.


Cool series overall. Maru has grown a lot recently (huehue)

Congratulations to Maru, the first and only OSL, SSL, and GSL champion!

It's been a long time in coming, but the guy completely deserves it.

So solid for Maru. First korean triple crown and the third player to win three starleagues. Shame we didn't get any longer games

edit: although Stat's play was kinda underwhelming after seeing all 6 games. The only maps he won were defending allins (which he did very well).
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

As for today, in that last engagement in game 6, Stats clumped 3 High Templars together against Maru. I mean, I don't know if it's because Stats is lazy or what, but you don't clump 3 High Templars together when ghost is out for Terran. Do other top Protoss pros clump 3 HTs together? That is just lazy, unrefined play.

He was moving across the map at that point. Nobody splits them up while you move and then there wasn't enough time (not a fast unit).
Well and/or he didn't know that ghosts were on the field.

Yiss, Maru!!!

And the commentary was surprisingly good, since I skipped the intro, I don't know who was there with Valdez, but he handled it well

Rapid did really good. I was never a huge fan but I always respected the fact he's been improving since the start.

Don't know who that guy is but as long as he's not ruining my Starcraft he can talk me through any game he wants I hope he reads TL.

No. The games themselves were very high-level, but not particularly entertaining.

I think the first 3 games or so had some entertainment value. The series taken as a whole, though, felt pretty one-sided, despite Stats' two wins. When he lost, he looked completely outclassed. Like, comprehensively dominated.

I've been seeing a lot of hate towards the series, but rest assured that anyone who says that this was a bad series is a noob and has absolutely no idea what they are talking about.

Games were excellent and very entertaining. Casting was top notch too.

No, the games themselves weren't good with the exception of maybe game 2. Putting people down because they don't like the things you do gets you nowhere.

Does that even need explaining? By and large they were extremely one-sided with Maru pushing Stats (who made a lot of mistakes) around in the early game, and easily converting those leads into wins.
