In game 1, Maru lost in large part because of balance. In games 2 and 3, he lost partly due to sloppiness, and partly due to the map pool.

If he hadnt lost to those things he would have lost to balance later.

I won't bother complaining even though I feel like doing so, but will just turn off my computer now and wonder how the game has come to this...

I hope Classic will play admirably and win his semi with crazy all-ins of all sort.
But my head does not believe in it.
Thus that will be the end for me tonight.
Don't want to suffer from sleep deprivation just to watch ZvZ and predictable ZvP roflstomp.

Maru got stomped....hard


Serral faced soO.

Maru faced Dark.

Go ahead and talk to me some more about how the brackets were even.

Oh yea, Serral gets superior brackets because he is the #1 point earner because he plays in WCS.

Oh yes. Totally fair seeding. TOTALLY fair.

/s



Serral got soO because 6-0d the group him and Maru were in.

Maru got Dark because well.. he lost to TIME to start.


Easily disputed. Serral got matched vs 0-6 Stats first and Maru got matched vs Time who took a game off Serral first.

Why? Seedings.

Clearly, Time was a much stronger player in that group. AND! because Time had Maru first he had much more time to prepare for him, and preparation is clearly one of Time's stronger suits as a player.

Map pool is a big part of what makes balance.

Having the worst map pool for Terran has a big impact.

Do you plan on sleeping?

well after Maru loses here i'll go to bed, not really that into ZvZ and ZvP currently. but i'll probably wake up early enough to catch some of the final anyway.


Since classic's builds are exposed, I can't see his chance to win dark, seems Dark vs Serral/Reynor confirmed. And I think Dark has no chance to beat Serral and little chance to beat Reynor, Foreinger will again win the blizzcon

i don't care for the patriotism, but yeah Serral winning seems even more of a foregone conclusion than it was before the tournament started.

good night everyone.


Then, a narrative to claim him as a GOAT player once again. LoL

Zerg wins with BL/Infestors: "BL/Infestors is so OP, it's bullshit"

Zerg wins with SH/Nydus: "SH/Nydus is so OP, it's bullshit"

Zerg wins with lings and/or banes and/or mutas and/or roaches and/or hydras: "Oh... er... well Zerg is so OP, it's bullshit"

Maybe the whiners should just say which units zerg is allowed to build. Apparently they're not allowed to punish a turtling player with the only option they have to do that, they're not allowed to attack when they see a weakness, they're not allowed to harass undefended positions and they're not allowed to build a deathball.

Oh well, just the usual wheel of balance whine I guess.

Serral 6-0'd his group. Or did we watch different games?

It's pretty obvious actually because the common denominator is the map pool.

Zergs has always had the most skilled players, unit balance has become balanced. Furthermore Zergs has become more well rounded, and deal better with the shenanigans of Terran and Protoss.

But it is not good to see so many Zergs, much like it wasn't when it was Terrans and Protoss respectively.
