I don't really understand the plan from Serral here.
Maru only needs to hold 1 new base at a time, and this army is never gonna get the full cleanup off creep.

On this map? At one point Maru will run out of money and this time it will be sooner.

Looks like it but still I feel like Maru's defensive style works comparatively well against Serral and his high-drone/high-trade style.

It works but not on this map, you have to deny some mining IMO

He could have had a last 150+ army supply push but not on this map.

Serral is not happy with this series.

Ngl I was pretty skeptical, the style from Serral looks brutally inefficient.

Who in their right mind doesn't veto this map against zerg? This looks like the biggest 1v1 map I've ever seen holy-
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

Wow this map will be brutal. How the heck did it get selected into the map pool? Especially when pillars remained? Hmm

Yeah. Cannot imagine that style going half as well on most other maps against Maru's defence.

I can't wait to find out who was the strongest player during 2018.
Serral | Inno | sOs | soO | Has | Classic

Does anyone know what the vetoes were? I assume Serral got rid of Death Aura and Submarine

I dunno, even Reynor's been mostly avoiding the lurker style in cross server matches in favor of LBM.

Well in case you accept 1 lost game because this map pool is waht it is, maybe Maru just went - meh, fuck it, w/e.

Serral losing a drone to the reaper. That's something that can tilt him.

Zergs don't have such close relationship to their workers like other races. Until it's close to a two-digit number it's fine
