I honestly thought Serral was going to lose in every round. But he convincingly beat Inno and Dark (who are top two, if not the best vZ players from their respective races) and managed to beat Stats, who is at least top five, and his showmatch against Maru was similarly impressive. I don't think he's the undisputed best player in the world, or that anyone really is, but I don't see how he's any less dominant than Rogue, SoO or Dark.

Have you watched the team matches?

if we assume that a foreigner has to dethrone serral some time, i wonder who it'll be? showtime looks closest, maybe reynor, scarlett or special can do something

edit: bad grammar


Everyone forgets that Scarlett won a tournament in Korea and beat Serral in the ro8

try not to get totally carried away here but which koreans could really take on serral in a bo7 at the moment?

soO, Rogue, Stats, Maru, TY, maybe Trap or Dear?

She won a tournament in Korea where 14 out of 16 players weren't Koreans though.

People still underestimate TY. He'd have a good shot against Serral, especially since his biggest strength is late game, which Serral seems to like to go to

listen, Finland isn't just good at hockey and Starcraft. Finland also produces some great professional wrestlers too.

Maru got dunked on hard in that team match, and no despite it being a showmatch the level of play is still very high. They are basicaly 50/50 at the point.

But she beat Serral, much more impressive than beating a Korean

Did he? He lost 25 workers in the early mid-game and it still went late and Serral had to use up his 5k/4k bank.
