Damn a gg with 8k/3k bank. I don't even necessarily think it was wrong but has that ever happened before in a premier tournament?


Pretty sure there are some pvz with such outcome during the infested terran area


I remember the one with Stats where he had like 20k but I think that was just an online cup. Not sure it's ever happened in an event with real stakes.

Yes, but what should he have done here? Ghosts seem impossible to deal with when you have Clem level micro.


The good old "kill him before he gets there".

Maybe, and it's fair to just say that Clem is a step ahead of Serral at the moment and there is no counter to Clem. If nobody else is able to do what Clem does with ghosts, then that's fair. But Maru does it to zergs who aren't Serral, so it's fair to say that ghosts are a problem here.

GGing with 8k/3k bank. Yes feels like Serral has given up. Expecting an all-in in game 5.

There was nothing he coukd do against that army. The game was over before the fight. Clem is having the tournament of his life.


It was over, but compare this to his loss vs Maru where didn't leave despite it being even more over for such a long time. In every other situation against any other player he would not have left there with there with this bank. He would have confidnece in his own micro to potentially turn it around.

Clem was almost at Serrals natural. It was gg.

Well, there is still TvT that he need to improve upon, but he certainly has become the best TvZ player ever.

When Serral crushes Maru, I'm sure all the Maru fanboys will be crying imbalance

Not when Maru keep dying to early Roach attack like he did, nor when he nonchalantly doing Medivac drop against a max out army of Zerg. What Clem did here was perfect lategame execution, simple as that.

Yep, my point is that it's all about Clem's skill, not imbalance

Clem can win as many games as he wants against Serral, but nothing can stop Ryung from taking a map off him after some weird raven tank push

Have you ever been in a thread where Maru loses to a zerg in a tournament ???

Clem is playing like absolute GOD and definitely deserves this win.

You can of course enlighten us, how you counter the terran with this composition with infinite scans and ghost basically countering every zerg endgame unit.

Serral is the only one to destroy Maru regularly with burrowed Infestors and Dark does it to everyone not named Maru, so burrowed Infestors are the problem?

Ghosts really is an embarrassing unit that counter everything Zerg and Protoss throws at them

Ahahaha the salt is hilarious


Good to see you come out of your hole after crying how Maru got wrecked lol haha

I really wish this tournament would have had more open qualifier spots and less welfare region spots. It sucks not having Bunny or Rogue or DRG or Nightmare, all of whom are probably better than for example Coffee, Showtime, Spirit.

Maybe. They've already gotten nerfed 3 times now, so the zerg cabal seems to think so

Well Terran late game is op since 2010. They don’t need any scvs and can have free scans and have higher army.

His peak is insane, I feel he needs to brutalise the majority of the Zerg field more consistently to get such an honour.

He can play like a god and step up a level, but frequently lose to players far below someone like Serral’s level too.

Quite odd really!
