Reynor can match Clem speed on both ends, and his split against Clem mines is better in general. Also Solar would have given Clem more difficulty than Serral with his defensive style.

Peak Serral has beaten Clem several times. I son’t think Serral was at his best, but still Clem would have propably been too good. Clem has been the perfect weapon against Serral/Reynor for years.

Serral was losing to Clem a lot 2-3 years ago, then he re-invented his own ZvT specifically against Clem, by mixing in Roach opening, Queen drop and more all-in. But after having some good success, Clem "figured" him out again by countering the Roach style, and Clem developed his own lategame even better.

This has to be the most dominant finals ever, maybe outside of a couple that were completely one-sided on paper too

It’s one of the best performances I’ve ever seen, but nowhere near the most dominant.

Every set was a pretty decent, close game of StarCraft minus maybe one. There are some sweeps where nearly every set is just a massacre.

Rogue and Dark in GSL finals still haunt me as a Trap fan.

Although it didn’t happen ultimately, until Serral hit that final GG, I could still conceive of a world where he crawled his way back in. Maybe he finds yet another gear, from a spot of (almost) keeping pace. Maybe Clem’s nerves start to hit when he’s on match point, that kinda thing. Serral was the worse player, but close enough to have it be conceivable.

Well done that man Clem!

To see someone other than Serral to win a world championship so dominant like Clem just did...I did not expect to see that ever happen.
Well deserved and congrats to him, very very strong run and such a nice guy

GJ Clem, amazing play.

But Ghosts are problematic to balance. They are bad for almost all terrans in the world, but for those few who have AI like control - they is no counter.

I think the best idea would be to put hard limit of how many ghosts can be made at once, say 10 most. Another idea would be to lower their base attack, but buff survivability vs banes. It would help regular players, but then some units would start to counter them more (e.g. lings).

Nah this really has no effect on the Goat debate.
Saying he can't be Goat because he got 5-0ed here is just as dumb as saying Maru can't be Goat because he got 4-0ed by Serral. At least Serral fans can't use this argument anymore, that's the good thing

You did read that i don’t think Serral would have won even if at peak? He in the army, he is not full-time at the moment. To make it clear to you: Serral lost because Clem was much better. Please read the whole post.

I'm tired of these guys who says <insert player here> wasn't at his peak when he just literally made it into the Finals lol
