My dream to see Maru and TY in the final again will be fulfilled.

Maru 4-2

Zest

May this series at least be better than their last encounter, as I'd honestly argue that that became the new worst GSL final of all time.

I did a little viewing party at my friend's house for the NesTea vs Inca GSL final, they were not entertained

Nope. Nestea vs Losira at least had 1 remotely good game (game 1). Also had some cool new tactics from Nestea at the time that were pretty big as far as ZvZ goes (remember the mass overseers?).

Maru vs Zest loses on all fronts. It was unremarkable, short, and incredibly one-sided.

Depending on how you judge the 2011 Super Tournament it doesn't even get the distinction of being the first consecutive finals win. I think the biggest reason it sucks is if you look at it in the context of who Maru and Zest are. Two players who have met numerous times and have fought hard to be considered among the top 10 GOATs. While Maru was a clear favorite going into it, you would think given Zest's ability he would've risen to the occassion and scraped something together to give us at least 1 competitive game. But no, instead he got btfo. It was a colossal disappointment.

I even liked that final a little more than Maru vs Zest. Sure the gameplay was of even lower quality from Inca, but on a comedic level it's a total classic. It forever associated Inca with DTs, even to this day.
