Classic won't stand a chanche, too; Dark, on the other hand, would have given us a final.

Code S is the most predictable tournament in the world with Zerg always disappointing and Maru rekting the oh so very strong Protoss players every single time.

Honestly, I don't think Dark would've made a difference either. TY was the only one who could do it imo

Maru just ran him over. I thought he was going to take at least one win against him when he managed to fend off that early push from Maru.

Artosis noted how Trap should have abused Colossus against Maru because Maru is weak against Colossus builds, especially at the Super Tournaments last year. But Trap refused to do that. That was just a poor choice of strategy and builds by Trap.

Also, some of Trap's micro against Maru was aweful. Artosis called out Trap multiple times for bad micro in game 4.

Not really, the series vs Dark were close enough in the past and Maru's TvZ doesn't seem as good lately while Dark's ZvT is still shiny. TY, on the other hand, didn't seem as impressive as always in TvT, even if he would have been a much opponent than Classic; thus said, I hope Classic does it but I would not bet on it.

I'm feeling this for Maru's 4th GSL championship in a row.

Maru would just drop marauders and mines on them. Who knows how the games look like in the team house. Also Maru showed the willingness to build vikings relatively early, maybe that took the wind out of Traps colossus sails.

It's probably the fact that Maru builds a raven every game which completely invalidates low colossus counts.

Is Maru serious or just supporting his team? No way Trap is stronger than Classic? Am I missing something

Every protoss looks like a dumpster player against Maru in GSL...

He's the same person who wanted to play against Trap instead of TY because "he never wanted to see him again". It's obvious whatever balance issues are at play he would rather play TvP than TvT, which pretty clearly indicates the balance isn't as bad as it seems.

I am happy for Maru but I feel like we are being denied best games... Maru vs Rogue or Maru vs Dark would have been a crazy finals. Instead we will just watch another mechanically inferior toss get dumpstered into oblivion in four 8 minute games :/
