Idk what else it could be, way too fast a turnaround for my personal tastes | ||

Is GSL that Special that Even in its reduced format the top foreigners disappoint? I thought herO + Clem was a given in this group Otoh SHIN beat Maru after 33 series losses so that’ s the beauty of StarCraft | ||

Damn it Clem! ayayay. I would never expect him to finish last in this group. He did so well in qualifier. Especially he was favored against Cure, I thought. Every good foreign player that tries gsl, seems to be somehow cursed by default. The more kudos to Scarlett, Neeb for reaching playoffs. am still so unsatisfied Serral has never tried. | ||

Imo that also shows that all these statements that player xyz would do well in gsl is nothing but talk as the tournament always manages to prove that it just isnt that easy. | ||

I thought herO + Clem was a given in this group Otoh SHIN beat Maru after 33 series losses so that’ s the beauty of StarCraft G1: Clem goes for 4 gate blink against 2-base push from Cure. Clem gets a good backdoor attack into the main before recalling back, but gets wrecked when he tries to clear out the Tanks sieging him. Cure wins with follow-up attack. G2: Clem plays Charge-first with Immortal and beats a different version of 2-base all-in. G3: Cure plays for Mine-drop into another Marine-Tank push but there's a 3rd CC behind it this time. Clem's charge and zealot warp-in are just barely too late to stop his third base from going down, and he's screwed from there. | ||

But it is what it is and so we are likely to get some set of the usual suspects in the playoffs. Let's see if Shin can repeat his success against Maru tomorrow. | ||

Let's see if Shin can repeat his success against Maru tomorrow. honestly it defies logic for me, but I very much appreciate this narrative being preserved for entertainment's sake | ||

Massive respect to the chad Clem for trying, his reaction made me feel super sad for him. Hope he doesn't give up and tries again. | ||

I guess at this level everything can happen in bo3, plus knowing your opponents in advance help players prepare accordingly. Maru is still somehow the best / 2nd best terran in the world even when playing shaky, impressive | ||
