I remember playing on NA west with like 200-300ms ping, I was up against INcontrol and saw the GM icon so I was a bit afraid. He was playing fancy with phoenix killing scvs and stuff. Proceeded to all-in him with F2 a-click with scvs and stuff and it worked easily. I then remembered that NA GM is not EU GM so no reason to be afraid, even though high latency is annoying.
So your story doesn't surprise me, a lot of casters don't respect players enough especially considering the huge gap in skill between them and the players.

You forgot:
- Maru building a 3rd CC expecting the zerg to macro. - Maru canceling his first tank to make more barracks. - Maru not scouting his base in a zerg nydus meta.

i've noticed everyone does this. rotterdam and the others they always use a mocking voice whenever they answer a hypothetical question. it's like they think their audience is exclusively twitch chat

And yes this is real life.
he definitely made mistakes but I wouldn't go as far as calling him stupid. I'm sure he had reasons for doing what he did
Leenock outplayed Maru? Lol... Maru played horrendous and stupid. I mean he couldn't even raise his depos FFS... Didn't scout, no splits against banes and his reaction times were 1000x the usual. He is just horrible today so far nothing more than that
Maru never seemed as vulnerable in the last 12 months, it's Neeb's chanche to finally beat him. I predict a 43-0 for Maru in this bo3, he's the best Korean Terran after all!

That's why I stopped watching the show months ago. BTW I think he's still bitter about his "pro" end.

I hope Neeb pulls through but I want Maru to win as well so I'm screwed either way . At least Dark seems sharp, but Serral will probably be too much for him anyways

I mean, Maru would also have to beat Dark which, seeing his form today, I wouldn't expect.
