Kelazhur had a nice lead in game 3, but he went for the 2010 classic move known as "full foreigner". The more sc2 has changed the more it stays the same, huh?

Kelazhur's engage was terrible, but I don't blame him for committing hard to marine tank even if it was the wrong decision on paper. Maru's lategame TvT is terrifying, even if he's behind.

Despite winning game 3, Maru looked super slow. His army movement usually is very fluid, to the point that it looks like tanks siege, liberator siege and raven cast happens at thew same time. In this game however, there were several "lags" between these three actions.

Super intense game 2. Shame that Astrea lost.

Playing nothing outside of WTL really show Maru lack of awareness in these games. Losing the 4th CC to a Marine Medivac walk-in was horrendous, luckily he still has the bread-and-butter build to rely on. But I hope his conditioning will be improving in the next round.

It's so dumb that some players can win this tournament by winning 5 matches while others would have to win over double this amount. It's really bad both from a determining who is the most skilled player this weekend perspective and a viewer perspective because you barely get to see the favorites play any series. An open bracket player making top 4 will be straight up more impressive than a winners stage player winning this event.

Cyclone does make TvT look worse to watch ngl, other than helping the match to end quicker.

Maru made a huge misread on game 2, expecting Classic to went early Skytoss and has nothing to defend on the ground. And game 3 he was sending half of his army away instead of defending the 3rd, which is just plain sad.
