Yessir, and he's done 4 in a row.

Mvp would have more if his wrists werent dead, feels bad.

RorO would've won 10 GSLs if he hadn't retired.


and the end of WoL went on forever

RorO made Ro8 in the first HotS GSL and was the best player on Samsung until he retired. He could have won 10 GSLs eventually.

Thank you for proving how stupid that argument is.

''but mvp would have if he kept playing'' ''life would have if he wasn't banned'' ''everyone can do what Maru has done''

Mvp got his comeback in HoTS winning WCS Europe and going the distance in the World Final afterward. Mvp had an amazing story even despite his wrist injuries with a SC1 career that came before that.

Maru is ALL Starcraft 2. He's been doing GSL since he was what? 12? His story is just as great, and now that he's in his prime, it's anyone's guess how far he can go before he stops.

Probably not. The scene got aloot more competitive got really competitive ones people like innovation etc arrived on the scene.

Insert stuchiu anecdote about Mvp going toe to toe with Innovation in his 2013 prime coming back from losing literally infinite workers to take an unwinnable game despite a destroyed back, neck and unusable wrists.

Classic's preparation was really good but Maru was just on another level unfortunately.

Yeah, I don't know about Maru v Stats match. Better prepare to be disappointed, it's not Code S

Im afraid this will get worse. There is no new blood in GSL. The cliff of military service / the body performance drop off at ~ 27 years is going to catch up everybody else years before Maru. Maru vs the grandpas who already did military service it will be.

Game 1
Blink-Stalker rush by Classic defended by Maru. Maru moves out and destroys Classic's army at the second nexus.
Classic 0:1 Maru

Game 2
Stalker rush by Classic is scouted by Maru, but it still gets 9 SCVs. Maru sends out a Widow Mine drop which is caught by Classic's Phoenixes. The Phoenixes then get 12 more SCVs.
Maru switches into a defensive stance. Classic attacks with overwhelming numbers and gets 22 SCVs.
Classic 1:1 Maru

Game 3
Maru defends early game attacks by Classic at his main. He then moves out with Marines, Siege Tanks, Vikings and a Raven. Classic is slightly out of position. Maru gets his tanks
into a good position and easily destroys his opponent's whole army.
Classic 1:2 Maru

Game 4
Tempest rush by Classic. When Maru scouts the Fleet Beacon, he starts pumping out Cyclones and builds two bunkers at his ramp. Classic sets up a siege position with Shield Batteries. With the Tempests, he manages to destroy all of Maru's defenses.
Classic 2:2 Maru

Game 5
Proxy gateway by Classic. Maru manages to set up a bunker in time and prevents any SCV losses. A long air battle between Tempest and Battle Cruisers ensues. Maru eventually uses Tactical Jump to take out all Tempests.
Classic 2:3 Maru

Game 6
Maru catches three proxied Dark Templars in the early game. His Widow Mine drop destroys 7 Probes. Classic in turn removes 14 SCVs with seven Blink-Stalkers, but Maru has already marched across the map with his army. Classic defends the first wave, but then falls to the follow-up.
Classic 2:4 Maru

If he could win 4 code S in a row then he has all the reason in the world to not give a damn about super tournament.
