(T)Maru 3 - 0 (P)sOs
(P)Stats 3 - 1 (T)SpeCial
(Z)Rogue 3 - 2 (T)TY
(Z)Serral 2 - 3 (Z)Dark

(T)Maru 3 - 0 (P)Stats
(Z)Rogue 3 - 1 (Z)Dark

(T)Maru 4 - 1 (Z)Rogue

I hope I'm wrong and Stats/sOs put up more of a fight but I have a bad feeling for protoss playing against Maru.
Banned for saying "zerg players are by far the biggest whiners in sc2 history" despite the fact that this forum is full of such posts about Terrans. Foreigner Elitists in control!

Map scores are boring, I will take you up on the non-score offer:

sOs>Maru

That sums us my strategy If Maru/Serral win, it's basically down to luck in guessing the scores, which is dumb, so a real competitive entry is the one that predicts something that others don't expect.

Also, I have come to the conclusion that Special winning would be the absolutely best storyline of all storylines, when everyone is so focused on Serral being the foreign hope and meanwhile there is this insanely motivated hardworking guy who basically moved to Korea to improve his chances.

I am sorry but Maru is going to go to the finals in the most 2 one series possible vs sOs and Stats and then Rogue is going to show why he is 6-0 vs Dark in offline events in Lotv by sweeping him in semis.

Then finals Rogue vs Maru is going to be a 4-2 in whatever side.

Serral is the 3rd easiest opponent for Maru at 79.44%(after Rogue at 86.89 and Special at 91.73)
Serral is the only Top 8 opponent against whom Special has positive record(6-4)
Maru has nearly 50% record against ALL the top 8 players. He is 2-1 against Special, which is as close as you can get in 3 games and a total of 113-108(51.13%).
Serral has the 2nd worst winrate vs Field at 46.34% and the least games played at 41.(Major is 26.67% with 90 games played)
Dark has the best winrate vs Field at 149-111(57.31%)
Dark is the only one with winning winrate vs Maru(27-26)

Special looks so bad just because the statistics count his "old self". Also, trying to play in GSL nets you some losses vs. Koreans for your stats no matter what ...

It would be nice if you could set a date limit on aligulac calculations. I'm guessing same is true of Maru and Serral, if you took only their 2018 results into account they would look a lot better on paper.

Were the brackets engineered to make Serral and Maru be on opposite ends, or was that random, or did it follow through their performance in the playoffs?

They announced at the last minute that there is a rule requiring Serral and Maru to be in oposite brackets. Caused quite a bit of uproar here.
