The finals is a complete shitshow because Stats wants to lose as fast as he can, but for example Serral vs Rogue was one of the best series I ever saw

He is just gifting it to Serral so bad it even looks a bit suspicious.
Yes Stats played bad, Dark played bad, Rouge did okay, Zest and sOs also played bad - Serral is just a normal SC2 player with the luck that the other play bad -_-

historically speaking, SC2 finals are usually not the best
it's rare when it lives up to the hype, semi are usually better
Well, if we are honest Rogue vs Serral is the best series of the tournament by far.

Given lots of people contest whether 4 time GSL champions or players dominating over multiple years would be worthy of the title, there's no way there's justification for Serral as a Bonjwa on the basis of a year of domination, mostly outside of the most competitive level. If he follows Blizzcon up with a run in Korea, then he can start to make the case for himself. For now, he can settle for world champion and undoubtedly a top 5 player.
nah if he wins Blizzcon he will definitely be the best player

Hot take finals like these are bad for the game. I don't think you take these finals and show it to a neutral and get them watching your game. The fights are just painfully dull on one side. At least it's fast I guess.

ONE PUUUUNCH!!!!
Serral = Saitama
IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW
He does have the right amount of emotion doesn't he?
This seems like a good time to plug the Finland Conspiracy about how Finland isn't really an actual place but a mythical one created as a cover story by the Russians and Japanese to allow the Japanese to fish the North Atlantic meaning that Serral is likely some sort of shadow government cyborg

This tournament is just a shitshow, usually LotV is much better
yeah some pretty good games sprinkled here and there but overall extremely disappointing
Well we've certainly never seen better ZvZ than we've got out of Serral the last few months.

It already happened, Korea used to be an organized scene with team houses and a constant flow of new young players
Now Korea is just another country, a small country at that, haven't gotten a new player in years
Tbh "constant flow of new young players" was only true in the first year... SC2 too unpopular in Korea. There was a huge addition of new players from the KESPA switch though.

Classic Special was awesome too
My impression of it is that it had a game in which toss was running straight on into sieged up tanks, so i cross it out.

they got what they deserved
this actually came up last week in the blizzcon thread. you shoulda been there
It's never not going to be relevant. I'm going to tell my grandkids about IPL4.
Prime deserves to be forgotten - obviously not every Prime player was guilty, but enough bad apples in that organization that leaves a bad taste in my mouth
...3?
Yea, that's pretty bad, especially since the coach was involved
So Yoda/Bboongbbong/Gerard erases MKP, Maru, Byun, the original Prime.WE teamup, and Polt?
