Reynor is the last player remaining in the tournament with a chance to tie that record. But one trophy by Reynor is still questionable, right even it is legit? Because the whole tournament was conducted during the online era. | ||

I think the GG was fine, plus as RagnaroK said, the Larva issue was huge for him as he over invested in drones? At the time he shakes his head he is down 3 army supply. If he retreats with the 4 roaches he has on top of the ramp in his nat and wait for reinforcements + a temporary drone pull he holds it off somewhat easily (although the economy difference will be evened out somewhat). At the exact time he GG*ed, yeh it was pretty tough but he given up doing anything 5 seconds prior. | ||

I personally consider it half a world championship because it was online. Not a knock on Reynor, he played so well and is clearly capable of winning an offline world championship, but there will always be that asterik on that win. | ||

Of the Zergs remaining he's the weakest by far in the match up, and then there's the fact that he's scared of Maru by his own admission in the GSL finals last year. Clem destroyed Serral and Reynor as well this year, maybe not on the new patch but that doesn’t mean much? | ||

Having watched that tournament run, I don't want to give him an asterisk for that trophy but I can understand why others might. | ||

He's already further than most thought he'd get so any matches he wins from here is just adding to that run. Could mean he plays better than he ever has, or it could be he drops out 0-3. Different players handle the lack of pressure TIME is under differently. | ||

You just need to win a few seconds there. Most of them were just about to pop out. Serral not even attempting to retreat indicated he wasn't aware just how much he had in production. There is almost zero chance he doesn't survive that engagement if he does that. | ||
