Has there ever been a player who seems as invulnerable in a match up as Maru has seemed in TvT over the last year and change?

Rogue in ZvP for years.

At least that's definitely how it felt.

Thing is, Maru doesn't "just" dominate TvT, he very regularly performs above / way above other terrans throughout the years and patches. That's even more impressive imo, he is often the last hope of his race

That was really only in big matches though. His ZvP winrate was never that impressive overall. Serral and Dark ZvP winrate from mid 2019 until the voidray patch of 2020 was pretty ridiculous. But not as impressive because every top Zerg including the ones outside of the top 4 had like a 70%+ ZvP winrate during that time.

Probably. I wasn't using any data for that claim, just remembering the pain.

that was the most heartwarming interview I have seen from Maru since... ever? ByuN brings out the extrovert in him.

Solar bouncing back from his very mid results recently, or just the good non gsl event he has occasionally.

Mid results? the hell? Solar only lost to Serral and Maru. It's not his fault his bracket was fucked.

Top 6 with 4 Zerg, 1 Terran and 1 Protoss. Great race distribution despite Dark not playing.

There should be 2 Terran. Lambo shouldn't be here, he shouldn't be counted.

Not this event, every recent event he didn't perform too well in.

Curious what the reasoning is for the early start time? Basically eliminating 90% of American viewership. Sort of understood when it was online because the Korean players would be playing at 5am otherwise. But this is lan. Your not playing at prime time Europe or at a reasonable hour in NA? Pretty much every other tournament played in Europe starts 2-3 hours later.

Not trying to hate, just curious.

2-3 hours later would mean ending at or around midnight local time as the game stood today.

These were Bo5 series and they could easily still be going if they weren't all 3-0 stomps aside from herO vs Maru.

Serral's ZvP is probably the closest but still not quite Maru TvT level

I was hyped for the event but I have to work from 2 to 12 pm this week end, I was secretly hoping for that ZvZ fiesta so I have no regrets

really dont think so? Its 10pm in the Netherlands right now, and the games have been over for at least 2.5-3 hours already. Its more than likely everything would be done by now regardless.
