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. It surely doesn't help that this season Maru's greatest weakness was TvT and all the other Terrans got taken out by other races before they got to Maru. | ||

Maru is evidently the best Code S player in history; surely not bonjwa, most likely not GOAT. I think most people would beg to differ. Even as Inno fan, I think Maru has surpassed Inno at this point. No one else won 6 starleagues along with insane amount of ro4s. Inno can still catch up but it's unlikely tbh. Also, winning 4 out of 4 GSLs is pretty incredible even by BW standards. Edit: I believe Maru won I think like 5 out of 12 premier tournaments he participated in during 2018. Unless you are comparing to FlaSh, winning 40% the tournaments sounds almost bonjwa level to me. especially since GSL is close to as prestigious as Blizzcon (some would argue that it's even more prestigious). What he's done is certainly close to as impressive as what Jaedong and Savior did in their primes (they won something like half the tournaments too) and those 2 are certainly not far off from bonjwa. | ||

I also don't feel like Terran is very forgiving to old players. | ||

Yeah i've watched that. It looked sad and i even had hopes with Trap due to that. Then Maru just ran through him i thought i was talking more in general rather than specific MU | ||

Despite that TY would have come closer to beating Maru than any of the Protoss players did. | ||

He also recalled to cannon positions. | ||
