Maru probably wins if he doesn’t kill one of the hatches vs killing the drones instead, Reynor was pretty good at pulling them away mind Yeah, I think the casters really missed that Reynor had a good amount of drones even when all his hatcheries had fallen. | ||

Doesn't historically semis tend to have more viewers than finals when the finals is ZvZ, ZvP? | ||

Buddy if Maru won with build order wins it would still be luck | ||

But the casting, jesus the casting is just to much for me to take. I get that Reynor is their friend, a nice guy and that they hang out with him and whatnot while they don't really know Maru, but listening to Clem games on the french stream was more neutral. | ||

Reynor got totally destroyed and outclassed in the first 2 games and then Maru and lady luck decided to gift him the series for some reason: - Lucky build orders - Marus play and macro slowing down due to shoulder pain - Open walls - Maru even had the last game won despite his macro being way slower than previos games. All he had to do was attack Reynor before he established his bases and built infestors but he just waited there to die Oh well, its up to you Zest to stop this nonsense now. It would be a huge disappointment and very underserving if someone won the world championship solely based off luck. Please don't watch the 2018 Katowice ro4 where Maru went up 2-0 then died to what were confirmed as meme builds to entertain the fans | ||

That said, I don't think he has much of chance against Zest considering their recent history... | ||

French cast was much better Foreign casters are too biased haha. Super sad series, I think I need a couple weeks off. Maru was the last hope for a terran champion, so sad. | ||

You want a decent series, you gotta be pulling for Zest at this point. Then again, Zest has a tendency to sometimes just not show up in finals sometimes perfect example being last year's IEM Katowice. | ||
