Complaining about something that has existed for almost 2 years is just a bit of a "crying wolf" to me, if MLord was saying this in the first DH tournament, then he would look better.
But I guess playing in AoE tournament with lower ping might have actually messed up his micro when getting back to SC2. But thats also more of "his fault" for not doing the proper "conditioning" for the DH tournament.
I think it‘s insane that someone manages to qualify for two tournaments in two pretty damn different games at the same time (my initial wording was a bit… weird). And judging from his stream, he seemed to have focused quite a bit on AoE IV. Which is totally fine, in my opinion. He‘s in the top 8 of AoE 4 and in the Top 16 in SC2 - a feat I did not expect someone to achieve.

Well that was a game. Or a close approximation thereof.

Well... AoE 4 is still young. We'll see how he fares in the long run. So far mostly the old AoE players and some Wc3/Sc2 players seem to be to top tier players, but that could change over some time. Some guy, I think on Hera's stream, also said that Marinelord was a good player in AoE 2(? some older AoE).

He was a good AoE2 player but the game is far less competitive than sc2

Would it really be that hard to send an email to Maru or his team for a picture of him with the NV shirt?
It's been a year...
On another note, poor Nice man

Remember that Maru once beat Nice 4-0 in about 24 minutes of in-game time. This is actually faster than that pace so far

Aah, the usual disrespect western casters show towards korean pros! Right, Tl.net?

Maru just crushed Nice...wow...

Lol actual goats getting to choose the outcome, that's pure gold.
|
Absolute snoozefest so far
|
Serral's got both corner bases, if he can hold them I expect him to win.
EDIT: Maru can't even hold the top base, he looks like he's in real trouble.
|
? Where is marus supply he was ahead going into turtle mode and now just trades bad?
|
What keeps killing Serral's bottom left base?
EDIT: Was it just Marauder hitsquads like that?
|
Destructible debris finally collapses to splash damage  .
|
Feels like maru lost this with the completely bad fights he took at the top.

Damn, Serral broke the turtle without the Spine-Brood Lord push. Great play :0

He was two bases ahead though, so he didn't need to break Maru, Maru needed to break him.

Maru went turtle way too early, he could have done more harrassment onto Serral bases. In the end, Serral outmined Maru by 2 bases, you just cant win no matter how well you trade.
