No passion. Are you not hyped for the donation session before the finals!
To all the haters: you deserve to witness many, many more Serral victories, worthy of the godlike player he is.

Where you at? Because I dare to say I won't be able to fall asleep until 1 AM. Not having AC in this heat is killing my beauty sleep
I imagine France should be able to take this unless Lilbow is busy practicing for Starcraft III. | KadaverBB is my fairy ban mother.

I just launched Total War: Warhammer 2 after Serral's interview. During the super serious opening cutscene, the horns of Ring of Fire were playing and obliterated the tone. Thanks HSC for the laugh!

So Serral starts with 1 map win in the grand final? Is Liquipedia right there? Would be something I support.

Not saying TY chose a good strategy this game but saying TY is not known for his late game is stupid.

I like what Solar said - this is a built that if unscouted is an auto win for terran, and if scouted it's really hard in the lategame. serral had good scouting

Serral won by the scout 30 minutes ago and you're defending him because of this game... again, what are you smoking?

but Serral didn't win yet, you know why? cuz TY is great at late game (and mid game), get it in your thick skull buddy.
If TY was a lesser Terran Serral would've killed him already, what does that tell you about TY's Macro and late game?

Oh FFS, it's just a matter of time, the only way how to lose is to do some move command and die to stupidity.

Get your thick skull tested, not mine, jeez

You're so obsessed with hating on serral. I never even mentioned serral. You think I did because you love debating about him in every single thread.

I just said that saying TY is not known for late game is really dumb

Jesus fucking christ, multiple times I mentioned he's top 4, he's probably the best zerg but hey, I'm the hater here. Stop being a blind fanboy and read what I write, not what YOU THINK I WRITE...


You and Char and Xainon literally mess up every single thread talking about Serral. Even random threads that have nothing to do with it.
Case in point: I didn't mention serral once and you think I did and started the debate.

Let me be more nuanced: you don't hate serral. you are addicted to debating serral fanboys to the extreme.


Every time I point out he MIGHT be the best zerg in all matchups ... they come out of the woodwork.

Sc2 culture is so much worse then the bw scene was. I can't tell if it is age or just part and parcel of the whole internet getting stupider. These forums often barely differ from USEast.

... the public chat on west is actually worse then east. Dark times.


Well, not speaking about Serral when Serral is playing a ZvT. I rarely introduce the argument, but I almost always speak when senseless things are said(quite often).


I think the debate about best zerg is valid. I think many members on this forum have great perspective in both directions.

Obviously, I am not talking about people who have valid commentary, having veteran sc2 players/members disagree with me is great, obviously they have valid reasons for disagreeing with me. I am totally fine with being wrong and learning why.

It is the bandwagon of rage that shows up whenever he is mentioned.

Is korean-0-phile a thing? Korean-centric? Dick riders?
Not sure, but their is an anti-fan element that I lack good language to describe.


My two cents is that people can't stand the fact Serral was undoubtly the best in the world(and most likely still is atm) despite not being a korean. If TRUE would have won what Serral did and played just like he does, WCS titles would still be compared to Olimoleagues but the atmosphere would be much more relaxed like it happens in Brood War forums and how it used to be during HoTS(my answer to what Opisska is saying).

Serral's is not especially great at lategame ZvT considering how strong he is overall, but he still is one of the best in the world, korean level. Ej, if I'm not wrong, said ONLY Dark could win a ZvT played the way TY did and Chairo said that was because only top players can beat top players(this way, Serral not capable of beating TY is like saying Serral is not a top player, and that's what triggered me). This time specifically, I kind of agree with Mariano, TY's TvZ(including lategame) is not as good as Maru's or Inno's.

Cool. Wonder why they changed it. I don't really care either way but I'm sure they're happy about it now considering the delays.

Last HSC finals started 10:15 PM, no way we're making that with 2 more matches and the obligatory begging session.

The weird double bo3 format from MLG essentially made the final a bo7 with one player having a two map advantage.

Unlikely, yeah. Although I wouldn't be surprised if soO vs Zest is over before that if the breaks aren't big. soO doesn't like to play long games after all.

Oh there's no way soO vs Zest goes that long. On the other hand, the winner of that vs TY might take a while.
