Well, maybe TRUE can atleast deliver some entertaining games with lots of lings when he isn't completely outmatched. Also cheering for soO in the first round is gonna be lots of fun  | ||

Pretty cool tournament: Do we see INnoVation bounce back and crush the whole thing? Do we see Rogue go from top dog to losing in the first match and dropping out early? Do we see Classic dominate until the finals before losing? Do we see Maru flop or continue his dominance? Do we see the return of ByuN? Hype | ||

I'm not really sure if Maru vs Classic would be harder than Maru vs sOs, honestly. Classic has been in pretty good form, and he's obviously an incredible player, but those sOs vs Maru matches recently showed that sOs has some pretty good ideas for how to take Maru down specifically. I think both could be tough, but actually I have a pretty high confidence in Maru taking down Classic, whereas I feel a lot more iffy about whether sOs might find ways to catch him off guard. | ||

What surprised me most is that Artosis never mentioned soO's lack of tech, even saying "I don't see how Maru wins this" when it was 3/3 against 2/2 and Maru down only like 20 supply lol | ||

Amazing value! Seriously, if Rogue was at that position he would go into mid game with such advantage from Swarm Hosts that he would probably end the game there. But well, SoO waited for late game, now we are doomed to watch these crawling game in which he is going to lose. | ||

It's Maru (!) beating soO (who isn't a monster in ZvT), not every zerg foreign included that smash other races, nor Sniper beating players better than him. We'll have to wait and see if there is a real problem. For now Maru still hasn't beaten Rogue with it. | ||

Yeah, true. Dark won by keeping him economically strangled. But it still went late enough that we saw these kinds of unit comps, iirc. Didn't they both get maxed in like two of those games? My memory is kinda terrible sometimes. | ||

I'm actually seriously considering stopping playing for a while because I can't stand boring camping mech. Anyway, I'd be glad to face some more protosses ^^ Same for me. Mostly get matched vs Terran, some Zerg and very rarely a Protoss. Anywho. Cool series from Classic and sOs. Some nice mind games from Classic in the final game | ||

Once ultras got out in decent numbers (and with strong upgrades), there was no way aLive could pressure. That's why I said earlier it was still Dark favored | ||

He decided to back off and re group even with units coming in to the fight from rally points. Was just odd decision. Then went for drop in the main which sniped the ultra cavern and spawning pool. To again sit back and do nothing xD Put Maru or Byun in that position and they defo "all in" or go for the throat as a put it in that situation. The game on Catalyst was over when Dark cancelled the natural. Nothing else to say. | ||

Maru vs Dark might become a neat rivalry at this point, something competition always needs. | ||

On the other hand Dark will have his hands full with True. I actually think True might be able to beat him, that would be something indeed. | ||

I remember him being reeeaaaally bad after he'd been in NA for too long. Like mid-tier foreigner kind of bad. | ||

Seeing him win with a style that usually doesn't was particularly tasty Classic vs sOs games 1, 3, 4 and 5 were all pretty good. TRUE vs Trust were all interesting games between two underdogs of the tournament. Dark vs aLive was somewhat one sided. aLive had chances here and there but Dark snuffed them out. None were particularly amazing though; just Dark doing Dark things | ||

Classic's PvT has looked flawless since 4.0. Unless Stats' PvT. It's still the only matchup Maru looks to be losing in right now | ||
