You already said that once right in this live report, we got it.
Wow, those korean overlords! They crushed everyone, it was not even close! They will never be allowed on finnish soil again. Please notice koreans didn't have to play a single ZvZ and that Showtime was the only one who beaf Stats in the tournament.
On a serious note, WCS is mature enough and koreans, despite being stronger, wouldn't annihilate the scene like they did in HoTS. Everything should be completely rearranged and Code S absolutely could not be a three months tournament.

First live SC2 event. Even with the unfortunate result got Serral's autograph for my copy of the game with my extra thick marker and got to say good luck to him at the meet-and-greet so can't complain.

The current WCS champion could have eliminated the ASUS Rog champion. The games were enjoyable and moderately close, Reynor/Heromarine not advancing was kind of an upset. In a global scene, korean Zerg would learn how to ZvZ but foreigners wouldn't be behind in meta in the other matchups; it could be a new WoL, plus Serral.

Did some snooping around the practice area. Here's TIME playing zerg before his Serral match. Or at least I think it's him as I just saw the back of his head.
Only for fun and to have an idea what Zerg may have in early game I believe. Actually his Zerg's MMR is just more than 5000 on Korean server, and even the Chinese caster xiaose or F91 could beat him. I hear Maru's Protoss has 6500+ MMR which is even stronger than a lot of player's main race anyway.

On stream the other day Maru was messing around with toss and almost hit 6.7K. He also beat herO in a PvP at one point (they were both random so it wasn't a true PvP but still).

Koreans being bad at ZvZ is nonsense.
They are not bad, but they hold no advantage over their western counterparts in the matchup; it happened more than once that weaker EU Zerg beat koreans in ZvZ, do you see this happening in any other matchup?
serral ??? slump ?? i ve noticed dat dude barely reacted correctly to early aggressions also and my boi stats finally got his "best toss" title back from Classic!

Serral's "slump" in 2019 is ro8 at IEM Katowice, ro4 at ASUS Rog, silver at WESG plus WCS Winter and Summer, titles at WCS Spring, HSC XIX and both WCS qualifiers. That's how top players look like, don't you think? Serral also lost every time to the eventual champion, in very tight series.
Even then, you are right, Serral is slumping considering he won eight consecutive offline tournaments, six of which were Premiers, in the last seven months of 2018(not to mention he won other four online, losing only one to Neeb the week before BlizzCon); definitely bonjwaesque, Serral simply was the best player last year(yes, better than Maru).
Congrats to Stats. I think Serral and him will have a great rivalry through the next year or two. Serral seemed to have his number, but Stats was too strong with defensive timings.

Stats is just six months younger than Classic, who might not even get to BlizzCon this year due to impending enlistment; I severely doubt Serral and Stats will clash many times before the latter is forced to retire.
