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


True story! It's not like Maru failed six times by placing lower than Serral in tournament where they were both present already.

Also, a player reaching the finals in Katowice has to be washed up.

Why do you have to be such an unreasonable hater?

Pretty sure that when he "failed" terrans performed super poorly, whereas zergs were doing hella fine.

So there's that.



Sure, just like when Inno won WESG.

Thats good for Zest. He has info on Maru while Maru has none on him.

you mostly gain nothing from observing a TvZ series as a protoss

Maru played Trap, sos and Patience.

Eh our gimmicky race can knock pretty much anyone out of a weekender any time. It's our function.

Would be super funny if the finals end up being Rogue vs Zest.

That would be the best case scenario I think, got a feeling Maru would crush Zest.

To get a big reaction from you, I think. You should just stop reacting to unreasonable haters :p


I'm never doing it, they are actually one of the reason for which I started posting there.

It‘s Charoisaur.... in u look up all of his posts, u‘ll c he is here to hate - especially against Serral / foreigners. We should just ignore his posts, otherwise the troll gets too much attention.

I mean, why bother giving credit to zest for big brain plays amirite

Not sure who I’m rooting for here, I guess of the three remaining I’d like Zest to win and his PvT is a relatively unknown quantity.

Also is Maru the single most boring interviewee in the history of SC2? Number one that I can recall but I’m probably blanking some from the past

Serral's skill is still very high but he's become considerably less clutch than he was in 2018. But also this PvZ meta seems to suit the Korean style of well executed aggression so Serral's ZvP struggles this tournament isn't too surprising. 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.


Lilbow at his best was actually a nice change from that.
Zest fanboy.
