Maru last terran hope, seems like zergs figured out ZvT again! I dont think you can say that yet, maru did a lib transition in every game the last time and this time he did meh early games and then did mech and tank transitions again. I mean if top Zergs and Terrans trade series like that it’s quite healthy, the « form » of the day seems to matter with both parties having a good shot at winning if they play well
Yea i agree but figured out often means we are in for zome zerg dominance thats why i would be careful to say that :D

Unsure if serral has a better day or maru a worse day than the last time they met but today marus decisions and compositions dont feel as clean as last time. Some of both, Serral messed up basic early game defenses in their last series and was constantly behind as a result, but Maru is also looking less crisp. Ye with these 2 at this point it feels like whoever has the better day wins.
And that's how it should be between champions, very similar to rivalries in some other sports

Maru/herO could try to make a run through 4 top Zerg to win this tournament, but I doubt it would happen.

Goat Serral stomping Maru as usual when games really matters

this is just lazy and poor taste.

The guy just being a dick and a troll, a bad one at that. But I am expecting Maru to stop the all the other builds he try today and going for what has worked best. He played 2 matches against Serral doing Mine Bio pressure into Mass Libs/Ghost, and today he just did none of that.
|
Serral made uncharacteristic errors throughout the early games in their group stage match. Speaks to how good at learning he is that he rarely makes mistakes and never makes the same errors twice.
|
Jesus, that last ZvZ. Either epic clown fiestas or you get that.

Serral first 3-0'ing Maru, and then 4-0'ing Reynor. The guy is unreal.
And now whoever makes the run in the lower bracket must face Serral in a BO9 in the finals.

To be fair, whoever could beat Serral in the upper bracket would probably have to face him in a Bo9 as well, theres just not much of an advantage here for Winner Bracket, other than a couple extra day of rest. Even the Lower Bracket final will be played on the day before so attrition should not be an issue neither.

Serral had an incredible day today

Serral making sc2 History again

It sounds crazy, but I honestly think Reynor and Maru have better odds off losing to Serral in the UB and then rematching in the finals. You only get one chance to beat him.
Serral just doesn't make the same mistakes twice, he's too good at fixing his game. If either of them beat him today I think he would have 100% beaten them in the finals rematch.

Curious to see how Maru plays in the LB, he looked godlike in this tournament before facing Serral the second time. If Maru plays at that level I think he makes it back to the finals (Reynor doesn't seem to be in his final form yet.)

herO got triple forge and then not 3-3-3, just stopped at 2-2-2
at this point the 3rd forge seems like it was pointless
I was expecting a 3-3-3 timing attack
I'm pretty sure that was the plan, but when his 2-2-2 finished he was just too poor and not even close to Reynor's supply, so he had to invest his resources into immediate power.

Sweeping Reynor and Maru in succession, not bad! Any series/games worth watching from today?

Fun fact: Serral is must TV, all the fans and haters all tune in for his matches.
