They're on Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/videos/273800422). They should also be on Youtube within a few hours most likely.



I prefer Youtube VOD s because you can skip the breaks better on 1080p

Just wanted to give a golden tip: nowadays you can just go directly to the gsl videos tab as the broadcast is going on and start watching from the beginning. I almost always miss the start, but also always go to the videos tab directly without looking at the stream. No need to wait for VODs, and if you disable chat and dont go to TL/reddit for a bit theres no way you will actually get spoiled. I guess sometimes I see how long it will still take, which is sad. On the other hand, zero downtime is pretty nice.

Instead we get a 1 hour PvT final where no game goes longer than 10 minutes, what a treat.

What other unit then? It's the only unit that allows some micro.

Even if you're not a huge long-time Maru fan like me, I think you still have to marvel at game 3.


I thought Maru played much more impressively game 4 personally.


Yeah, fair enough. Game 3 probably stuck with me mostly because I was sure he was 100% dead. I was shocked that Maru came out of that opening alive.

lol Maru is going to crush Zest
the only reason he lost a game to Classic is because he was trolling with mines

I need a serious explanation of Maru's game 1 strategy. That felt like a build he'd use in the group stage of some random tournament like WESG against a tier 7 player rather than something against Classic in the GSL semifinals. (like when he went for a 2-base Nuke rush on King Sejong in the WESG East Asian qualifiers back in 2016)

Just watched the series and Maru's hold in game 3 was actually really fucking incredible. I would've lost 500 out of 500 games facing that cheese in that situation. Even against a player my own level, no freaking chance for me to win and against someone as good as Classic too.

Ridiculous hold.

It's crazy too because unequivocally Maru's play in that game teaches like the most important aspect of holding shit like that and it's really the effective pulling of SCV's.


Edit: What the fuck happened to Tasteless' hand?

Game 1 wraps and you see only 75 minutes left on the VOD. "I guess Classic won in 4."

Maru's play was just incredible. Even in game 1 where he is getting criticized heavily, his initial drop did massive damage and he could've easily had a game-ending follow up drop if Classic's control on the defense wasn't as strong as it was.

GL Zest, you will need it.

A bit late, but I think Classic's force fields have cost him the last game of the series. Looking back at the engagement where the stasis went off and trapped Maru's mines and scvs, Classic could have trapped even more units if he had not divided the army with his force fields just b4. It's a bit sad bc if he practiced a bit more in that "sOsy" scenario, he would have known what to do.

This is extremely predictable. With the current PvT status, I don't know how anyone could predict Classic is favored. If you can't get in an unlosable early game position, entering mid game means gg for protoss. Zest approached the ro4 the right way.

Again you need to stop disappointing me. Ban me son. @Seeker.
