After the raven patch he started dropping games and series to everyone. Since the raven nerf you can't reliably open 3 raven and shut down every push. And Maru still opens 3 raven a lot, it's a direct nerf to his style | ||

Mass Raven isn't as strong as it used to be, which means that having the better Raven control isn't the guaranteed way to win TvT all the time so Maru isn't relying on it as much and is instead going for more of these risky coinflip openings that have a lower success rate and backfiring on him. It's classic Maru. He is the better player, but constantly donates games or even entire series because he decides to get cute with his openings instead of just playing safe and drawing the game out. | ||
