well it's actually played at a decent time for everyone (at least for the quarterfinals), so it's at least better than Dreamhack They're matches played with cross server lag and across timezones. yea I mean across timezones is a much bigger issue when it's 5am in korea, obviously when it's 10pm in korea it isn't such a big deal So you arbitrarily decide whether or not to count matches played with cross server lag and across timezones after you know the results. lol it's not arbitrary and it's not after the fact, I never thought the online Dreamhacks were particularly fair and I'm not the only one, I'm not gonna sit here and pretend that making competitors play at 5am is cool It's not after the fact? Then why were you already preparing to excuse Maru's loss before the game? are you saying you think Serral got the harder side of the bracket? because I haven't changed my mind on that, this top side of the bracket is stacked Childishly dishonest. literally every player in the top half of the bracket had won their most recent match vs Serral, literally every player in the bottom half of the bracket had lost their most recent match vs Serral I think it was a pretty lucky draw for him that didn't pan out in his favor What does Serral's bracket have to do with you not counting matches played with cross-server lag and across timezones, specifically Maru's match in this tournament, except that he won so now it counts?
he won with a disadvantage which makes it even more impressive. Maru>>>Serral

These matches are fun, but i do miss the roach meta, where it was less about luck.

idk I don't think I made that argument, I don't think I said the match counted or didn't count, but then again I've been awake all night because of the timezone difference 
I just said historically Maru didn't do too well in similar circumstances

There you are. It wouldn't have counted if Serral had won. It does count because Maru won.
It's fine if you or Die4Ever want to believe that, I don't care about this nonsense at all, I mostly care about Protoss nonsense. But don't pretend it's some objective principled perspective.

Stop arguing LMAO, let's just wait till IEM Katowice to see who can come up with more dumbass arguments for whoever lost to whoever in the offline tournament

He put forward a pretty good case. If it wasn’t Clem, it was Maru and not by any huge margin. And only talking his vZ, he’s clearly not quite at the same level in the other two.
Not sure what people are saying elsewhere but TLers aren’t going around saying Clem and Reynor are Flash and Jaedong equivalents or all these things you’re claiming man.

foreigners are lucky they don't have to compete vs peak Innovation. They'd never win a map

Yeah I'm not sure you can say Maru is "clearly" better than Clem at tvz when they both got smashed by Rogue and both completely destroyed Serral

Production rigging the bracket every time in favor of Serral but even with that he still lost ![[image loading]](https://www.zupimages.net/up/21/37/fqva.png)

LMAO we are very close to getting the same result as in GSL in the same fashion
Rogue goes up 2:0
Dark catches up 2:0
Rogue denies the reverse sweep and wins game 5.

not like the other side complains any less. I hear somewhat frequently that Clem does worse against korean Zergs because of ping All of these excuses and accusations started my me stating that Maru was better and Serral is not good against mines. And now we are back in the timezone - lagg - any other excuse- circle. I don't agree with any statements but saying serral is not good against mine doesn't imply these are op. Like I get it, you have a very strong identification to koreans so you worship them but don't be too toxic about it, we already got the kpop stans.
I CLEARLY stated that its OP AGAINST SERRAL, aka he is weak against it, isnt that what you mean? And I dont have a problem if thats your opinion, doesnt mean I agree with it it. But stop accusing me being toxic for trying to re-phrase your own point.
In anycase, this win shows that Maru can actually beat Serral because it was quite lopsided since that WESG back in 2018. Hope that it gives Maru for confidence in the future, because before this series start, I personally feel that Maru can beat anybody in SC2 other than Serral despite I am a fan of Maru.

I wouldn't mind. It's just as entertaining as old Serral vs. Reynor, except with a bunch of short games rather than long epic games haha
