nobody cared when Serral won Blizzcon that he avoided Maru. Rightfully so, you can beat only the ones that are put in front of you, if they got eliminated then they were worse on that day

Is it me or is Ragnarok's face not the most... motivated ? He looks like he's sponsored by the shrug emoji this series

It’s Maru he knows he is outclassed so it is hard to stay motivated I guess? He probably doesn’t beat him in practice

Maru is just way better than Ragnarok. It's like his earlier series vs Solar but the difference in skill is even more pronounced.

Bring it back to Aiur, herO; PvT is going to be harder for him tho.

All the strongest Zerg fell to their weaknesses here: Serral to ZvZ, Reynor to(turtle) TvZ, Dark to PvZ.


Is Dark's PvZ his weakness? I mean historically, obviously in this tournament it is.

The two GSL Code S that Dark won he won playing PvZ.

The one Blizzcon he won he won playing ZvZ.

I always thought that if there WAS a weak point for Dark, it was his TvZ.


Dark won BlizzCon in 2019 after he was eliminated left and right in ZvZ pretty often that year and for his Code S that was mostly Trap choking(and Dark playing well).
Historically, I would say that Dark's best MU historically is ZvT and his worst is ZvP.

I've actually seen TY on stream just play straight up Sky Terran on this patch. Mass banshee + vikings. That'd be histerical in an IEM semi.

Maru probably has tons of build in TvZ against the top Zergs, and now they are all out, he will put it on Ragnarok .

22-1 in favour of Maru. Best of luck to Ragnarok!

His point is broader. Serral that run beat sos, zest, stats, rogue, dark, basically four s class players and la cucaracha.

Maru might make finals avoiding anything similar, which is a shame because I would say he is favored against any single player.

He doesn't play against a single Terran in the playoffs of either of those GSL runs.

This is the problem with upsets like Ragnarok. Its really cool in the moment but often means the next match is a complete mismatch.

Not expecting the same from time though, hoping for a cool series.
