I expected a much closer series, but man, Serral was on point throughout the whole series. That last game was clinical.

He saw the mutalisk swarm and knew that he was dead. Why stay in?

If you gg, you're eliminated - so why not stick it out to the end? Maybe your opponent misclicks move-command or something? If it's game1, fair enough to gg. But it goes to show that Dark was too demoralised.

Compare Dark's run to Cure's or even Maru's or Reynor's. That one bo5 against Maru was such an important win.

I agree, Dark looked scared and intimidated. Serral was "in his head" from the very beginning.
I Protoss winner, could it be?

Serral has cleaned up his play a lot, but Clem would still have a great shot at beating Serral. herO being in a finals would be cool but despite their last series being close, I'm afraid that it would go like most PvZ finals...

Is there going to be a huge break because the ZvZ semifinal ended earlier than expected?

On Point serral is honestly Just boring If you arent a fanboy.

I'm a Serral fan. I'd still not prefer matches like this. It's just so much more interesting when he gets pushed. Let's hope Clem or herO can make him sweat.

I think he dunks on herO. Not a sweep, but something like a 5-2 where herO takes a few sets, but doesn’t look like winning.

WombaT’s Law feels especially strong here. He’s played basically every Zerg in the tournament bar Dark, and Serral himself twice. Serral is good enough at scouting within games already without having all that study material.

A Bo9 versus Clem if both bring their absolute A-games could be an all-time great final. Equally, it would be Clem’s debut on the kind of stage Serral is very familiar with, so he might struggle with the occasion.

Hey I’d love to be wrong and for herO to make it through and take this for Aiur, but it’s a Bo9 in a matchup that generally favours Zerg the longer the series, versus the greatest ZvPer of all time. In a tournament where he’s had to play most, if not all his cards due to facing a bunch of Zergs.

Aside from breaking the Protoss duck of many years of WC events, being a military returnee while doing it, which already would make this an incredible story, beating Serral with all those factors in play would make this one of the all-time great championships if he could pull it off

Yeaa... his dominance makes the pro scene less exciting.

Funny. When was the last time anyone said this about Flash? And yet, many have voiced their opinion that Flash was even more dominant. I love the bias and salt around here. The tears get more delicious by the day.

in the past 1 year period Serral has a series record of 81–6. Out of these 6 losses - 4 are by Clem (1 by Maru and 1 by Solar). Really hope Clem delivers in the series with herO for the sake of fantastic BO9.

If Clem manages to beat herO, I think he'll probably win the trophy, unless nerves distract him.

I mean I said this about Flash back in the day. and I wasn't the only one. Flash's dominance reduced my investment in the BW scene a decent bit.
