Yeah, that would help, repeated win would cement it. Let's see what's ahead of us.

Let's hope not. Apparently StarCraft regains some popularity again and with it, Homestory Cup generates more money as well. And all the guys still seem to have a lot of fun doing this event. As mentioned before: I hope there will be lots of Homestory Cups, even after the one in Vegas.

I know it seems sacred on this site, but at what point do we get to start referring to Serral as the b-word?

Dont argue with fanboys mate, he will always provide an excuse.

In 4 months so much can happen in sc2, the results back then aren't very relevant.
Rogue went from godlike to dropping out in GSL ro32 in 4 months.

I believe inno played to the best of his abilities, stayed calm throughout and for sure won the mind games, he also had insane macro, but his micro failed him whilst serral's creep spread was definitely the biggest factor in his loss.

If he wins every single gsl next year you'd make up another excuse about how the competition has really fallen off because of blizzard choking out korea. With serral's antifans there's always another excuse. Excuses all the way down.

Honestly, I do like this new dynamic of Serral being the first top foreigner and all but I"m getting tired of the fact that him and Maru basically keep winning all the tournaments. I hope next year, the competition will be more level and interesting and I think this HSC gave some indication that that will be the case.

It will be an unwise move for Serral to play in code S. I really hope he never tries.

His ZvT isn't the best in the world, but his others matchup are; Maru keeps dying to Protoss so it's not like he hasn't weaknesses. Serral wins every tournament, Maru doesn't.
Serral didn't win the WESG were he lost to Maru. Thus you're lying about Serral winning every Tournament. Also Serral didn't won Katowice.
Please stop lying, Serral really doesn't need such lies.

Why would I? Korea is still the hardest region, if he wins the Code S and continues in his great ride he's the best player. End of story.

I get that but imo I don't think this patch changed things enough (although I'll admit they changed things a lot) that Serral's recent ZvT series in the HSC are irrelevant in the discussion about his ZvT.

Maru winning 3 GSLs in a row apparently wasn't enough for bonjwa so Serral would need to win at least 4 GSLs in a row for that.

I am pretty sure it was, I watched the games maybe I am wrong
Edit: I was talking about INno vs. Dark at WESG
