"Just play like Innovation"
"Just play like TY"
"Just play like Byun"
"Just play like [insert any top Terran here]"

Sounds like typical shitposting to me

Well, it's true only Maru has this amount of success with proxies.
It was the same for PartinG and his soul train.

I think only Dark, TY, Stats and Classic can give Maru a reasonable match. Maybe Serral and Rogue.

If the protoss can get shield battery + immortal and hold then they win. That's a pretty big disadvantage.

Proxy reaper alone isn't really risky though. Unless it's a cannon rush or something (even then you can win as terran, just not easy).

So in this specific game, Neeb had immortal and two shield batteries. However, even before that fight took place (so regardless of whether Neeb held or not, Maru was already ahead in workers, with a second base on the way and high tier tech available.

The point isn't whether it's possible to hold or not- the point is why would you ever not do these builds if they don't disadvantage your choices?

Proxy marauder cyclone is a popular build. And if Neeb had actually defended he would have won.

You seem to think Maru could have been held off in that game and still won, which is possible with some proxies but not this one.
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

Yep. Blizzcon is such a trash tournament. HotS has it even worse.

I don't follow HotS. What happened?

I know what I said sounds crazy but if you think about it Serral hasn't had that many chances to show his ZvT skill so I reserve judgement. I do believe his ZvZ is probably best and ZvP is 2nd best or best.

And it's worth mentioning that the seal of "worth watching" still doesn't mean it was good.
