Solar took control of the game on both of his map wins, at that point Maru is forced to defend forever and can only hope to trade better. I'm more surprised by Maru's lack of transition in game 3. No ghosts, No libs, no armory upgrades... At least game 1 he gave himself a chance with his ghost play. Widow mines don't cut it vs ultras | ||

Because I really did not see any mistakes from Maru in this last game it just looked impossible to win when leaving the Zerg economy intact. I mean you basically can't move out because of Mutas so even doing damage is borderline impossible without some early cheesy builds. And then you just get screwed while your whole army is fighting 1000 banes Mutas just wreck the economy. And this is Maru we are talking about, best TvZ player against a solid but not that great Zerg who was always a walkover for Maru. This meta is super tough... | ||

But when ultra shows up you need either ghost, libs or both in my opinion. Libs are super good to defend bases. Then it becomes a trading game where zerg's attack become less efficient over time, and when they start running out of bases, you can usually push and win. It's just super hard. | ||

So he vetoed the better terran maps (Golden Wall and Deathaura), and lets him play Ice and Chrome and Ever Dream, aka the worst maps for TvZ? Maru or not no one expects a terran to win a lategame on Ever Dream. Dream being not an idiot just bans Ice and Chrome and Ever Dream like any other terran would and picks up the wins on Golden Wall and Deathaura. The results seemed shocking at first until I realised Solar managed to win the two best zerg maps against Maru, then lose the more even/terran favoured ones against Dream. Maru's veto choices are just bizarre. | ||

GSL is just a different level of competition. Solar is not and never was a top Zerg and was up against the best protoss in the world, probably the best terran form wise and Maru. And he almost advanced, so really not a bad performance from him. Just not quite enough this time. | ||

If Protoss doesn't win with an adept all in or some wonky timing, chances are, the Z just stomps them. How is it about maps? At the higher levels of play Zerg rolls Protoss on anything that resembles a normal macro map. Deathaura has plenty of airspace, no overlord pillar at the natural, a two building wall-off at the nat., and zerg still has a healthy advantage in ZvP on it. | ||

What makes you think Zerg still is? Broodlords and Infestors were nerfed, the buff to lurkers is minor compared to those. Queens, banelings and creep tumors were nerfed. There are less Zerg favored maps even if more than there were last season. Those changes were effective and it shows. Have you watched the last two seasons of Code S? Have you looked at the racial distribution in the last tournaments? Protoss have needed buffs for almost one year and ZvP is still not balanced but Terrans seem to have the upper hand against Zerg or, at least, are easily capable of holding their own. | ||

Queens, banelings and creep tumors were nerfed. There are less Zerg favored maps even if more than there were last season. Those changes were effective and it shows. Have you watched the last two seasons of Code S? Have you looked at the racial distribution in the last tournaments? Protoss have needed buffs for almost one year and ZvP is still not balanced but Terrans seem to have the upper hand against Zerg or, at least, are easily capable of holding their own. Terran having a ez time vs zerg? looooooooool u seem to be new to the game. terran has the least chances to win vs zerg my friend. | ||

Yes. #BaneLivesMatter On a serious note, it would be interesting to do a 'fun' poll between the pros: "If you had the power to remove a single unit from the other two races, what would it be and why?" Makes an interesting TL poll too. Imagine if SC2 tourney had a 'veto' unit function before every game. In a series, a unit can only be banned once. | ||

GSL race split seems fine to me. Sure banelings are useful in every matchup. So are other units. We'll probably end up with 3 P/ 4 T/ 1 Z for a change. But we know Zerg is not weak since Serral and Reynor keep destroying | ||

I’m glad we didn’t get Serral vs Maru for DreamHack Summer Season Finals. It would’ve been so disappointing to see Serral 3-0 Maru after all the build up over 2 years. | ||

If Protoss doesn't win with an adept all in or some wonky timing, chances are, the Z just stomps them. It's by far the worst matchup in the game right now, both to play and to watch. Protoss can't compete with hive tech so every game ends with some sort of all-in variation. | ||

Man he just dismantled Maru, wasn’t expecting that in game 2. Game 1 was a bit of trickery but he played a really solid game there in the second. Happy for Dream, really intriguing Ro8 shaping up. | ||

Why would that be the case over Maru just having a bad day in the office? Maru losing to Solar in TvZ in straight up games is way less surprising than getting taken out by Trap in TvP. Trap’s made 5 Ro8s in a row including 2 finals now, he still seems quite underrated in the community. | ||

Come on, Maru has never had a bad day in his life. He's won literally every tournament he has ever played in. | ||
