Maru took some of the best engagements I've ever seen vs what Trap had. Any other terran would have been crushed by that many disruptor/storm/colossus. Shame not watching your army for one second is GG against disruptorrs.
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

He won two GSL seasons before the proxy meta, and won the season directly after it stopped being a thing

If he plays like he is no threat to Serral.

I'ds still easily bet on Maru over Serral, this series looked like yet another series where a teammate watched 500 replays of Maru and knew every single move before the game even started, if anything Trap's play looked more desperate than Maru's, always trying to smother him or else.
So... what that make you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie

I'm finally convinced that Trap is an elite player (I resisted the idea before). His builds were super crisp and he had excellent control, harrassment, army placement, and map awareness. Lastly, his cheese build made me hate him a little bit as a person - a hallmark of a good Protoss player.

I was entertained!

Also, quite interested in seeing a top-level Korean PvZ ahead of BlizzCon season just for information reasons.

I liquibetted on Trap based on his PvT (his best MU) rating and Maru's TvP rating (his worst MU). Aligulac wins again.

Cool match, Trap played so much better than Maru, I wasn't expecting that but staying at the top, top for very long is something few can do. Top 4 finish is still very good!

So after this tournament ends, it will be revealed that the difference between Maru's worst MU and his best MU is literally 400 pts.

The biggest gap in a player's MUs in the history of the universe.

Is there a single terran that doesn't have TvP drastically lower than their other two matchups? I don't know but I'd be shocked if there was.

There isn't a single top20 Terran that has TvP as their best MU, according to their ratings. Ouch...

Yes, within the top10 players, he does have the smallest gap betwen best and worst MU (40 pts). Serral currently has the second smallest gap (69 pts).

Funy and if you look at the matches. He is basically winning and losing vs Stats and Trap.

He lost a lot of points in recent history. That 0-3 against Stats. And although he beat Super and Neeb 2-1, he didn't really gain pts, because those are much lower rated players. In fact, he probably lost significant pts from losing one map to Super.

Speaking about points: although Liquipedia's portal says it's still possible for Zest, Solar and PartinG to qualify, they are more than 1500 points away from Stats' 8th place so I guess Blizzcon is over for them.

Dear, TY, Hurricane, RagnaroK and GuMiGod are still in the battle!
SC2 is the best game to watch and was the best to play before I grew old and slow...
