Haha, I remember some ppl saying that the ro16 pairings were to help some foreigners play in the later rounds. Maybe we should've been saying that the pairings helped some koreans appear in the later rounds

ZvZ is only behind TvZ as the best matchup. Many of the best games recently have been ZvZ: Serral vs Reynor at Montreal, Serral vs Rogue at Blizzcon, even Elazer vs Dark at this tournament. On the other hand we have TvT which sucks these days, and who wants to watch Protoss?

Given the results it would indicate that the former may have been onto something
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

Same for me. Has been a great tourney including the semis, but ZvZ finals are lame. Always the same....

just because the foreigners beat the Koreans, doesn't change the fact that they literally made the brackets to have some foreigners advance

I hope blizzard reconsiders the changes in the upcoming patch. Protoss is getting nerfed as it should but the nerfs are more PvZ focused which is obviously very Zerg favored now that they aren't dying to all-ins every game. The nerfs to Protoss barely effect PvT at all. Infested Terran nerf is nice and it will make a big difference for TvZ but PvZ lategame will still be an autowin if Zerg gets up to 20 infestors. These games were sad to watch.

Does Serral supersede RorO/Sniper as the biggest BL/Infestor abuser?

Serral's use of BL-infestor right now is more akin to Maru's abuse of Raven-turtling in 2018—it's disgustingly strong in the right hands, but it's not OVERLY distorting SC2 competition by boosting the results of other, less capable players.

Meanwhile elazer's making the finals after not being an elite foreigner for two years.

Maru's use of the ravens isn't a great comparison, literally every tournament during that patch had terran do terrible in terms of representation (with maru winning on his own). Zerg right now is at least doing very good.

Oh yeah! EU ZvZ finals on Korean soil! HYPE. Best matchup in the game in my opinion.

The korean die hard fans need to take a deep breath, it's not the end of the world.

Maru got stats'd, you give Maru a road with only Z & T and then he'd either have to hit Serral or TY to have a chance at defeat.

Stats HAD to avoid PvP basically, he's favoured vs everyone else even Serral.

Dark got ZvZ'd, it's his worst MU, and EU ZvZ is STRONK, I think mostly from training with Serral.

So that's 3 of the strongest KR contenders basically getting really really bad bracket luck, the other top Koreans were all eliminated by... Serral, it looks one sided, but all you have to do is go back to ASUS ROG to see total korean domination ( Serral being the exception).

Honestly even after this tournament, if you were to rate the top 8 players, it'd be Serral #1 followed by 7 Koreans.

Plz calm down with the recency bias, GSL is still stronger than WCS.

elazer with his 97/194 supply finally shining, 30 overlords per game is truly the highest skill era
So... what that make you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie

Isn't Stats's PvP supposed to be the strongest in the world?

Stats also lost to showtime, and Zest recently. He himself has said that Zest has better PvP than him.

I dont think Elazer had any chance vs Stats, if he makes it past Neeb....

Elazer said the true: we practice more
Easy as that. Watch Dark and soO games vs Elazer and Serral
Nothing to say more, atm gap between kr vs world is none.
And Serral himself is a pure talent and practise machine. I remember when he start to show up at eu scene. He was 0-3 by Nerchio all the time. Then it was 1-3 2-3 and after some time....boom 3-1 3-0 3-0 3-0. I was like wtf.....didnt know best sc2 player was born in from of my eyes.

Team Elazer vs Team Serral tomorrow. Is that an archon game or a team game?
