He lost to a doom drop in game 1, fail an all-in in game 3 and get out-micro by Clem in game 4. 2 of the games were something he almost never commited.

Clem actually mixed it up quite a bit by his standards, he went for an early medivac-less marine move-out in game 1 and a heavy reaper opening in game 3. Serral also played a little strangely, going roaches in the first three games (Serral usually plays roaches once or twice in a series), but also just didn't execute as well as he needed to. Game 4 was the only normal game between them.

Man, everyone spent years trying to solve the Serral enigma, turn out all that was needed to stop him was for me to proudly declare he would sweep every single tournament this year.

I was not ready for the power of a TL writter

With great power comes great responsibility...
It was careless of you to declare such a thing

Serral is the kind of player who could win a tournament after marching thru the entire LB, so hold your tongues for a little while longer! ;}

Maru playing like hes on hard mode as well, could have lost both game 2 and 3 because he attacked into Zerg army while not maxing out /teching out

Steadfast also pointed out that Maru forgot +1 attack upgrade. But then someone in chat said that Maru's been doing the same thing for several games now, making me think if it's intentional?

That is absolutely not intentional because he built 2 EBay and had the resource to start them both. So its a "Byun upgrade" issue. Maru is playing like hes on 300 ping or a shoulder injury or something, he tends to rush for the kill and keep doing it many times.

If the winners bracket (Clem, Byun, Maxpax and Cure) switched places with the losers bracket (Serral, Dark, herO, Maru), it would have been far less surprising.

I still disagree with tournament organizers allowing race switching in the middle of a match (I don't blame Reynor for this, we actually need more people willing to play more than 1 race).

Once map vetoes and picks are made you should not be able to switch race.

Otherwise you can just play the maps that are good for Protoss and then the rest as Zerg. Our map pools often depend on vetoing the maps that are not appropriate for the current matchup, otherwise it can limit the uniqueness of the maps if you need to make every map perfectly balanced for every matchup.

If you have a map pool where like 2 maps are strong for Protoss and 3 maps are strong for Zerg, that's about normal, but with race switching you now have 5 strong maps.

Was not referring to the individual matches that created the split, more so the 4 players in each.

Supposedly, that is to make up for playing the off-race, but even then I still think players need to declare their race during the map veto/pick, not switching in the middle of the match.

If herO beats Maru we will have the rare tournament, where there are more Protoss players than Zergs in the ro6
Many of the coolest moments in sc2 happen due to worker harassment
