Of course it is. Also compared to when Naniwa was winning.

If Naniwa was winning his games by playing like Stats does now, threads would be much milder too.

You know, it's okay to think Several is merely "really good" without all the superlatives. That's not being a hater or an elitist.


merely "really good". Lol TL korean elitists are some of the weirdest people I voluntarily deal with.
I swear if Serral was born in SK and came up through some Kespa team you would worship this guy to no end. Look at the disbelief in Rogues face at the end of game 4. The formerly best macro Zerg in the world just played his heart out and he felt helpless.

Maru was born in SK, he dominated the Korean scene the same way Serral did thr foreign and NONE OF YOU declared him Bonjwa. By far the biggest player achievement. By far the hardest competition on the Earth. And yet the discussion was closed. And now we have Serral, who won an invitational, lsot the onlly offline game against Maru, never won Korean starleague title(not talking about back to back win), is dominating the easier competition(from the 8 best players at Blizzcon only 2 advanced from groups) and he should be declared Bonjwa because his fans say so? Seriously?

go away with your logic, korean elitist - he's the first sc2 bonjwa and new GOAT and everyone who disagrees is a blind hater

I don´t dislike Serral´s play (It´s actually really good) but I hate the overhype.
Maybe I would actually support him if it wasn´t for all the victimized aura around the foreign community/commentators bias in regard to koreans.
I still like Stats to take this.

GO Stats!

really sad that serral never got to challenge korea when it was at it height in kespa, fun last game


more like really sad that kespa at it height couldn't challenge serral

Serral got really good during 2017-18, he would just get murdered during kespa era

Are you rodya's alt?

? Look at serral's history, he was nothing worthy of note during his early years. Certainly no Flash/Life

His history has just started.


If I remember correctly, Serral was actually prophesied to become a star player way, way back when it was fair to call him a kid. It's just pretty uncommon to see those predictions come true, especially like this


Yeah, for every Serral that we predict correctly, there's half a dozen Dreams in the background.

at least Dream showed us the highest level of skill we've seen in SC2 even if it was only in 2 games.


What happened to him anyway?

he retired when SKT disbanded

Not really. His personality was a much bigger issue than his playstyle.

Just let Serral fans have fun here, you can choose to ignore comments you don't agree with.

If Serral isn't that great, Stats will beat him and you'll have the last laugh. In the meantime just let fanboys be fanboys, on either side.


Being ridiculous is half the fun of being a fan. As long as it's not completely obnoxious seeing people build up their hopes and then being deflated is great entertainment.

Serral being a bonjwa is clearly not a question anymore. The question now is: is serral the king of kings, is he greater than Cyrus the second? Is he greater than Alexander of Macedonia? Is he greater than John Von Neumann. Is he the Messiah?

He is right tho... Rogue, the best Korean zerg by far, best Korean ZvZ player (maybe tied with soO) did bring our his A-game today. And it was close, but not enough. Serral is legit and deserves to be in a Bonjwa discussion at this point. Same as Maru.

Rofl that's just so untrue it's absurd. Here's a list of cognitive distortions:

Find me which ones of those you're NOT succumbing to right now.

Plenty of us called Maru Bonjwa. Deservedly so.

No matter who you cheer for, you should acknowledge epic achievements. What Serral has done is simply unprecedented in the entire history of Starcraft. Its not that he is better than other dominant players before him, it's just that for the first time we are seeing a foreigner winning like this.
