He was quite confident in ZvP leading up to the tournament but it's safe to say no-one in Europe plays that aggressive style to same level.

Well the best European Protoss generally exhibits the opposite of killer instinct.

Maru vs Serral denied again. Serral just doesn't fulfill his part

Rogue vs Maru has potential to be such a good series, hopefully it's not too short

I am just happy that Zest is at the top again, he has been a bit too weak for too long. When he is at his peak he is more fun to watch than stats imo.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

Maru could still dodge Serral technically too. He's not confirmed yet either.

the only sad thing is that these games end in a flash. No real back and forth or nothing. one attack and its over.

Zest on form is a nightmare matchup for Serral. Well played, timing lord.
Rooting for Rogue now, because I like to watch the world burn.
first we make expand, then we defense it.

I needed this to be able to cheer for Serral again, he has been dominating too hard for me to want to see him win

Maybe this will be the eve of a new rivalry, Zest vs Serral could be a cool one if he stays this good. Or just a continuation of Serral vs korean protoss I guess xD

But the deception done by Zest in the early game. The phoenix pull to cover the WP from the queens. The one-two punch done between the main and the third... i dont know. I enjoyed it.

gotta say I'd rather a protoss show me how to stand toe to toe with zerg rather than just catch them off guard, but it's something I guess

Feels like with every end of the year design patch from Blizzard this has become more prevalent. Especially in the Korean meta.

It will be super difficult for Maru given what we saw earlier in TvZ where the skill level was close. But he is the most gifted terran so he might have a shot? Hopefully he is able to beat Rogue.

Maru vs Zest in this meta might allow Zest to be deadly so it'll be a cool finals

Maru vs Serral is the Tony vs Khabib of Starcraft.
