The ro4 they played in gsl that year is still one of the best series of all time. The level the two had in PvP/ZvZ is untouchable as well

hots gets a bad rep but I loved 2014

I have way, way better memories of 2015 but that might be Terran bias.

2015 was the year. PartinG, herO, Maru, and Life were the best players of their races and also the most entertaining to watch.

Plus guys like Zest, INno, Rain were still up there as well even if they weren't there absolute best.

and then we had 2016 lol, now that was a bad year

The ByuN storyline was pretty cool though and with Zest vs TY and Dark vs ByuN it had two of the best individual games of all time.

And Maru had a flash level proleague season. Almost all his SPL games were incredible

and then he couldn't qualify for gsl one season, what a weird year

He was probably the second (or maybe third) best player in the world that season as well. Facing Zest (who was number one) in Code A might be the worst bracket luck ever.


Tbf, claiming that Maru was second best player in the world that year is almost Serral fanboy levels of delusion. You simply can't be second best in the world when you fail to qualify for 3/4 starleagues and exit the fourth in the Ro16.

That season =/= that year. I don't think he would have lost to anyone other than Zest in that one.
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

These games are so bad compared to yesterday... is it the lack of terrans? At least we'll have some quality ZvZ later.

Imagine scouting no 3rd at 5:30, and then building a nydus.

Is Ragnarok a peanut brain or is this not normal? Because hot damn that was bad.

If we measure it by performance vs Zest it's pretty clear Maru couldn't have been the second best

Debatable. While the score was one sided, the games were crazy. The score being 3-0 is very misleading to how close it was. TY "only" lost 4-2 , but all the games he did lose were roflstomps.

Plus Maru smacked Zest, TY, Stats, and Dark in proleague afterwoods.

Only 1 game between Maru and Zest in the Code A match was any close at all, Maru got stomped afterwards. He also did not smack Zest or TY in Proleague, unless you now smack someone if you barely come back from a deficit.

Ah okay. But doesn't change much. Can't be second best in the world if you don't play in either of the two starleagues.
