Shouldn't they give cure a bit of a rest?

If Cure wins this tournament he is clearly the best player in the world.

That was his point.

If Cure wins this, he would have had the hardest bracket possible on his road to winning. Serral and Reynor in TvZ obviously but also TY and Maru two of the most elite of TvT players.


I don't know about that. I feel online SC2 is the same as online CS:GO right now. There's no true God or best player this year due to the circumstances and the lag between servers. The time zone making it 3AM in Korean doesn't help either.

I don't like admitting it but ping matters less in a Starcraft series. FPS by their very nature can be decided much more by a random stray shot that lands or misses because of ping. Starcraft has more dynamics in it that allows you play around ping than FPS games do.

So it's not a fair comparison to make. Also, the fact it's 1v1 and not a team game means that ping is less of an issue than it would be with 10 players all with different latencies playing in the same match.

Man, just look at Maru's micro with no ping. Infinitely crisper than his series against Clem.

this lets look at the bottom part of the image type of casting is debatable. OFC Cure is going to have more supply if he is reactoring marines and Maru is pumping out cyclones.

3k more lost resources by Cure already. Maru is commanding in Game 1.

5k now.

That wasn't close at all. I want to count out Cure after that but he's been way too resilient in this tournament for me to do that anymore.

In CSGO they literally aren't playing any cross server/continent matches for that reason. In sc2 they still are, so ping is actually more of an issue here.
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

Those 3 vikings of Maru did some serious work.

Mech seems to fall off at the very highest level? Even when Maru or TY try it it never works out.

Casters talking about Maru losing all his economy when Cure was literally mining only from the from scraps in his main.

Maru still have 3 orbitals wins him this even if he lost every SCV he had.
