He also doesn t care about earning money and actually admitted, he s on an off week. That 100% has to mean, he didn t play a single game for 7 days straight and also was drunk while playing.  | ||

Really? Do you know why they changed from alternating west and central? You'll still have laglings on west btw | ||

Well, Reynor has really just recently started taking down top koreans, most of the matches I assume are old. Innovation just has played Serral way more since 2018, since he manages to perform well outside and inside Korea. | ||

Well, Inno was one of Serral's fiercest opponents in 2019, he was ahead for most of the year but after that Serral won all of their series; kind of what happened to soO. | ||

Stuff that I thought was nearly unwinnable suddenly produce coinflip series or stomps (Trap vs Reynor, Cure vs Serral). The lesson, as always—and fans should really keep this in mind more often—is that StarCraft II is more variance prone than we'd like to think. | ||

I think we have been spoiled by the extremely dominant performance of some players these last years(Serral's consistency then, Maru in GSL, Rogue in bo7), Sc2 always was a quite volatile game. | ||

There is no need to speculate because then you end up making players sound worse than they are or for lack of a better term, lazy, or that bs thing you guys say known as 'they don't care', that's not helpful at all. Of course Maru and all the other pros care, that's not for us to decide. Saying this just diminishes their value, and it is not helpful to anyone Nobody ever said they really don't care, but that it looked like Maru don't care. Care to read what people write or just react? (there's a reason why I don't reply to the other one) | ||
