Win or lose, Solar always does it with so much personality.
The world is better when every background has a chance.

The day is saved! Now if only Maru can also beat the other zergs!!
Or maybe herO manages to defeat both Dark and Reynor?
Awesome result for Maru, top 4 secured

Very sloppy attacks from Solar. Just outclassed today. But I don’t think Maru looks invincible.

Nah, I dont think Serral would lose to Solar in a Bo5, or losing to the same player twice in one tournament.

Yeah, but nobody is so far in this tournament. Maybe Reynor but he hasnt played any top tier opponent yet.

He nearly held an allin while running out of his wall non-scouted. If he didn't have 5 scvs not mining before wave 2 he can spend enough to block the choke again. I actually think Maru looked very impressive considering the early games went pretty bad for him.

I think Serral would make a better game out of situations like that but in terms of how Maru played from what he got I think that was impressive

I know mirrors are f'd, but does Serral really want to go up against Maru more than Solar?

So this is Maru's 3rd time in the Ro4 where is guaranteed to play a Zerg in the last 4 years. The one time he missed the Ro4 was last year where he lost to Serral in the Ro8.

so his last 3 Katowices.

2022 QF 1-3 Serral
2021 SF 2-3 Reynor
2020 SF 2-3 Rogue

Each Zerg he's lost to has gone on to win the entire tournament.

So one of two things is going to happen in the Ro8. He's going to break this streak and win the tournament or he's going to lose to either Ragnarok or Serral and they are going to win the tournament.

Oh and in 2018, he lost to Rogue in the SF 2-3 and Rogue won the tournament lol.

I wonder if this tournament ends up being like HSC XXI for Serral. Started the group stage looking SUPER shaky and not in form at all, but ended up looking giga dominant by the end of the playoffs.
AdministratorHey HP can you redo everything youve ever done because i have a small complaint?
