You simply can't do that now. He lost TvT dominance as soon as the patch happened before Katowice, it's the obvious reason | ||

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. I was thinking like that as well.... but the fact he does this kind of early shenanigans also allows him to become harder to predict .... even at the cost of being more vulnerable early game. | ||

I mean I like Maru but he just won GS7, he'll be fine. and it's more fun for the scene when there's upset potential and competition at the very top | ||
