I guess Maru is up there with Huk in "top 3 control".

I could maybe recommend game 4 if you want a good laugh but that's about it.

Maru is so good, if he keeps this up, he's going to be the Blizzcon champion.

So who are top 3 T then? LOL


Mvp, inno and Taeja impressed me way more. "LOL"
The same can be said about Life who will always surclass Rogue.

im sad for Zest, what a terrible way to perform in the finals although Maru was godlike. I was a little worried because Zest could surprise like he did vs TY but alas... How mistaken I was. Congratz Maru, a living legend.
i would define my style between a mix of ByuN, Maru and MKP

Meh I expected a 4-1 score with Zest taking a map with some protoss bullshit. It's okay. Zest overachieved this season. I don't think anybody expected him to reach the finals at the beginning of the season.
We got robbed of a sick finals when Rogue and Maru ended up on the same side of the bracket.

Watched it. This finals doesn't come even close to changing anything, such overhype, Mvp still goat etc. Somehow people can compare dominance in what would be the Champions League in terms of hype and competition (just use the search bar and see how many comments and views we had in the first GSLs) to dominance in Mid-Sussex Football League Division Nine era.
So... what that make you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie

Yes, players were so good the year after sc2 came out !

I'm hoping history doesn't repeat itself and a Terran player "because of his amazing skills" becomes unbeatable unless map pools change.

EDIT: I do think Maru is really good, but we have another starcraft game dominated by a Terran. Just hoping this one doesn't end up like that.

Viewership = skill

Fortnite = highest skilled game
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

It's weird to find that WoW is a game that requires more skills than BW and SC2 combined

I always find it funny when people use their imaginery concept of skill to play elitist. In general the competition is harder the more people play the game, the more new players join the scene and therefore push the status quo. You play vs other humans, not the game itself. But yeah starcraft people like to boast "hurr durr highest skill game hurr durr", nothing new.


Probably not the right thread for this argument though, gz to maru. I only catched the vods but this finals wasn't competitive at all sadly. I hope he can go for the 3rd in a row now, there aren't a lot of peope who can really challenge him atm i think, though his tvt is quite the mystery tbf.
