NationWars reminds me of how much I miss proleague. I get why NationWars has to use the all-kill format, but it is far inferior to having players prepare sniper builds against a specific opponent on a specific map. (basically why team leagues are interesting in a 1v1 game)

If Serral keeps up form for all of 2018 then I think the argument about best foreigner of all time is pretty settled.
The kid is absolutely insane. I don't think he played his best games today to be honest, the long game vs ShowTime he just didn't "Serral" the engagements like he often does, but it was still so sick.


Well, you're right in terms of skill, but unless he starts winning multiple tournaments in a row he'll fall short of Stephano. To be considered the GOAT, you gotta win championships against Koreans.


Neeb still a favorite for GOAT. He was super close of beating Seral last WCS, I would not be surprise if he won at least one this year.


Neeb is still better overall than Serral of course... It's just lately ZvP is a bit Zerg favored and Neeb is not in his best Form. But Serral has a long road ahead to match Neebs achievements, although he is definitely on a right track

Tbh currently Serral is better than Neeb in my eyes, and the latest NW results from USA kinda confirmed that to me. Of course, people saying Serral is the foreigner GOAT are probably kidding. He won't be able to be that unless he keeps smashing people for at least one more year. Neeb on the other hand is pretty close to overtaking Stephano, at least if he doesn't fall behind Serral this year.

Just watched Serral's hold in game 7 (was afk during that crucial moment before). My goodness. Yeah that's a hell of a hold. The hydras weren't even really there yet. It was basically just queens and drones vs zealots. Impressive stuff.
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

I think it's almost impossible to compare Stephano to Neeb or Serral because they competed in a vastly different tournament scene.
Stephano had way more opportunities to face koreans while Neeb and Serral only have that chance a few times per year and always just vs the top top koreans.
On the other hand Neeb and Serral have a way easier time winning championships due to region-lock.


Very good points.

What a blast to watch those games. Can't help but feel for Showtime. Tough losses. Serral played like a boss though, and well played by TLO. I personally felt like he should have been called in after that super long game. Loving Nation Wars this year!

The first game between Serral and Showtime was one of the best Starcraft games ever. Just epic!
Pressure!
