It hurts viewership if the analysts can't discuss more than one player. Maru isn't Flash - he can't and will not live up to that comparison but he's still a legend.


You say that, but I'm still laughing from that time Flash was kicked out of MSL group stages by Ssak and Classic.
I bear this sig to commemorate the loss of the team icon that commemorated Oversky's 2008-2009 Proleague Round 1 performance.

Your vote: Most embarassing Blizzcon performance?

(Vote): Maru
(Vote): Lilbow



Not even a proper comparison. Lilbow knew his odds so he knew what he was doing from the beginning. Maru can do way better.


Honestly I think Lilbow was way more embarassing. At least we can be assured Maru TRIED to win this. Just can't stop the actual God of BlizzCon though. I don't think there's any shame in that.

I can kinda agree with this, at least Maru was trying, he lost to sOs's mindgames

He wasn't. Properly "trying" would be playing into his own strength, not bumrushing into a trap that he knew sOs will be setting up for him 3 times in a row.


Playing into his own strength??? Are you guys forgetting that Maru proxies almost EVERY game, in EVERY matchup???


Link me to a game he played recently where he proxied against Zerg.

I mean seriously?
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!

I would be guessing Maru is a player who never diverge of his planned build in a series, it bate him in the ass when playing against someone who know the build he love.

So basically Serral, Neeb and Special are on the same level as top-tier Koreans while everyone else is still full foreigner?
I noticed Fantasy chose SC2 OVER SC:BW!!!! How has he looked??
Is Mvp and Jangbi still in the military?
Where's MarineKing.Prime, PartinG, Bomber and DongRaeGu?

Serral and Neeb are on par with top Koreans but Special still has no tournament win to back his skill.
Mvp is out of military, he streamed a while ago and said he only plays sc2 for fun.
Fantasy, PartinG and DRG are back to play competitively but are still far from his top form, PartinG is probably the best among them now, managing to qualify for code S this year.
Not sure about MKP, Bomber has a KR ladder account of about 5.6k mmr.

thanks :D!
Looks like no one knows what happened to Marine King..whch is is sad because he's one of my favorite players and Jangbi.. Sucks at Mvp only plays for fun.
Not sure if 5.6mmr is good, hopefully bomber can make it back into the scene. His series vs Scarlett is one of my favs of all time.

Pretty sure MKP actually matchfixed but was somehow saved by his parents or something?
If that's the case he won't ever comeback unfortunately

MKP had some problems regarding suspicions of match fixing. After that he slowly disappeared from the scene.

I think you need at least 6.4k-6.5k to compete at the highest level.

Game 1) Why did Maru suicide a Medivac and three Mines for no damage? He could have just turned around - only way boosting straight for the mineral line would work there is if $O$ move command missclicks his Stalkers at least two times (not the first time Maru makes this particular mistake)

- he played with all 3 production buildings on the map (betting/aiming on hyper aggression). If he aligned his whole strategy on said aggression, and then when it came down to execute (the attack), he turns around that would also put him behind.
- Theres basically several outcomes:
1) risk the units and get damage
2) risk the units and get no damage (which is what happened)
3) dont risk the units and get no damage

He thought outcomes 1 and 2 were both preferable to 3.

Game 2) Why did Maru not send the Reaper across the map immediately?

- another person replied more indepth, but cannon in mineral line makes reaper useless. keeping it at home a better choice (but still futile).
