This is a great tournament with a great format except for the final day is a bit of an anti climax with just 3 games that are played too early as well
and I just know herO is going to protoss the shit out of soO
Shame that they aren't even earlier, I have to leave around noon. Well, I could let other people drive and watch, but I am not sure that would be a good opener to 5 days of social interaction with said people ...

When I saw the fourth hatch go down, I knew the game was over. Serral had to know that soO was going to attack him at +2/+1, he just had to. I don't understand the decision making in that last game What should he have done to prevent that attack?
chain fungal his army in the middle of the map so he can't reach Serral's bases

has soo always been so good at zvz?
He had maybe the best zvz ever outside of Serral during his first final run in 2013-14 but then it turn out he couldn't be Rogue in a zvz to save his life.
Still one of the great zvz player of all time, I would put him right behind Serral

why cheer for anyone... ?
unless you mean "why do people have bias for foreigners".
for me, there is a basis in the history of brood war and of starcraft 2. foreigners have always been underdogs, and I love rooting for underdogs

has nothing to do with the break there's now

Lol, don't discuss this topic with Charoisaur. His mind has been set, cast in titanium and sunk through the litosphere subduction.

Serral certainly isn't an underdog right now

Whenever Serral falls behind, he plays so cost efficiently and always gets great surrounds. There's no other player as difficult to beat by cheesing or closing a late game. His only weakness is 100-200 supply mark (mid game basically) and that is saying a lot since his mid-game is probably one of the best.

yah pretty lame how biased incontrol is. like soo had such a bad 2018 and a long career of heartbreaking 2nd place finishes, but is any of that mentioned? nope. it is incredible soo took down serral. i'll stop watching the tournament if soo is eliminated wont care its pretty disappointing, especially after such an exciting show from the players and casters That's what Goeff does though. You should know by now.
yeah I guess, if its a foreigner winning its the biggest thing ever and if its not well might as well talk about the foreigner anyways

Serral is not an underdog by any means.

Check Liquipedia (link in the OP). The small "i" next to each match in brackets has the info - this is the most universally reliable way to know this for every tournament.

Now that Serral is gone, are we just gonna go back to 3-0 sweeps for this tournament. For whatever reason, Serral's existence in a game makes for entertaining, scrappy games.

and that makes the other 20 years of starcraft history disappear randomly
not to mention that this is the first time a foreigner is the best player in the world so obviously people are going to tune in and cheer for him, how is that weird I do not understand

historically he's still an underdog in the context of "can the foreigner continue this unbelievable streak?!?!"
but in this thread it looked like most people were rooting for soo, anyways
I wasn't invested, myself. But I do want neeb to win the tournament (and if not him, soo). But I think Stats will win.

time for Stats to stamp out the last foreigner
