EPTShould be an easy match to the finals for Maru though.
How did Maru the godlike Terran manage to beat Trap? Was scared to open that bracket

Maru just showed up how I expected him to. Armani did look quite good in ZvT, but I really doubt he can win in the Ro4. | ||

It's looking extremely likely to be a Stats/Maru final, and I'm definitely seeing a Stats victory (even though I really really really want Maru to win). He didn't stand a chance against Zest either if Zest actually took the games seriously. This series was a straight up GIFT to Armani. Someone that watches this series seriously can't possibly tell me it wasn't. | ||

Maru *just barely* won against TY in their last finals, and although he obliterated Stats in the finals in 2018, I'm not sure we'll see that version of Finals-Maru again this year. Yeah but Marus TvT look much more impressive than when he took out TY in that finals | ||

As for the finals, seeing their recent encounter, Stats would be the hardest opponent. Maru might win in bo7 finals with Jin Air preparation though, especially against Kong Stats. TY seems hard but Maru is the ultimate god of TvT judging by King of Battles. If TY didn’t beat Maru in his 3rd GSL in a row, I don’t think he is gonna beat this Maru tbh. But the preparation / weirdness of TY can carry him in the finals. Either way this is super exciting, the only « bad » match can be Armani vs Maru if it’s a quick 4-0 or something, but TY + Stats and the finals should absolutely deliver! | ||

Still think Stats has a solid chance because, well, PvT, but Maru and Rogue are two guys you don't want to play in offline BOX. | ||

There is nobody who is a smart bet vs Maru in a match vs him. He is currently good at everything. If Stats makes it to the finals and wins, he would be beating a Maru that is better than he is ever been. Pretty cool. | ||
