It is exciting to see TIME do this well, but on the other hand Maru is probably the player who really should have the title of world champion

This very very entertaining to be honest. So this is the player formerly known as "Time" right? Who knew he was this good.


I've considered the best foreign Terran for a while (mostly because Clem apparently underperforms in the only tournaments I see him in) but I never thought he'd be able to pull this off.

Yeah, I thought TIME was a dark horse to make the playoffs/ro8 but this is actually incredible.

Also coming off a 2-3 performance in the groups (which was still a good result by TIME's pre-tournament standards), he really just got hot at the right moment.

Yeah but if everything that should happen happened it would be hella boring.

Oli making TvT interesting

Let's give the patch some credit too. Raven & Sensor Tower change definitely hold up as helping prevent turtle stalemates.

Oliveira is on such an amazing hot streak. If he manages to take down Maru here this will be the greatest upset since Greece won the Euros. But they did that playing hideous football, whereas Oliveira is playing fantastic Starcraft!
That was an interesting comparison. I feel that Maru still has another gear but I hope it goes the full 7 games.

Man, it's just a title. I've known Maru is an unparalleled player in all of StarCraft ever since he won those three GSLs in a row. Winning or losing this tournament will do absolutely nothing to my evaluation of how good he is as a player.
I bear this sig to commemorate the loss of the team icon that commemorated Oversky's 2008-2009 Proleague Round 1 performance.

There is one thing clear:

Oliveira is playing better than his opponents. Every game he has won, he has won it deservedly. People underestimated him too much.

Even if Oliveira loses the finals, major props for him carrying the foreigners this time.
