soO vs Dark is the only ZvZ i could watch and maybe enjoy. both are strong Kongs, and it could an occasion for soO to let the mantle of King Kong to Dark, who know.


at 3-3 they get a tie twice in a row and then coin will decide. It will stay hanging in the air


Then the universe will start to be ripped apart and both kongs have to jump into the space time rift to save the universe.

Mark my words, sOs will win a GSL one day

Yah lets try to be a bit more honest in the main post lol.
Thanks to "patch raven" - he's going to toe to toe with late game Zerg? Wait I mean proxy 2 rax??

He won 1 game vs Dark that a raven was built lol - and he lost to Rogue.

The foreigner "Zerg extermination" was largely won with 2-1-1 - over 50% rofl.

soO vs Dark is the obvious final here. On paper Maru vs Dark is 50/50, but Dark will be more motivated to win this time. It wouldn't suprise me if Maru slacks of a bit after becoming the highest earner in sc2.
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

Dark has the answer to ravens, in WeSG he won 2/3 games with ravens in. Maru crushed him with standard marine tank plays and proxy rax's.

I want Maru to win because I don't think either Dark or SoO could survive a lost against the other in a final.

Yeah right. Those games were won before the first raven was out. Unless your defense is that ravens are fine because they aren't broken enough to win unwinnable games.

Is this the newest variation of 'kill them before they get there'?

Stats will lead 3-2, and soO will take the 2 last maps with 2 consecutive scouted nydus. Ruyng ghost will haunt TL and reddit for days.

Meanwhile, Dark will bring back a lot of muta/ling/bane play, and win convincingly with it.

The ZvZ finale will be decided by 5 min rock-paper-scissors games, but of course, soO will manage to loose an unloosable deciding game.

Killing them before they get there is a viable strategy? The same way Rogue's response to skytoss last year was doing hydra allins when only couple carriers were out.

The fact is, the games where Maru tried to mass raven he died. So the idea that Maru only beat him because raven OP is nonsense. I'm not saying mass raven isn't ridiculously powerful, I'm just saying that Dark has answer if Maru wants to try.

And even though Dark was in winning positions anyway in those games, he still had a good response to the ravens with fungal and parasitic bomb. Something Solar and Serral weren't doing as much. Solar would literally leave infestors behind and attack with 10 stacked broods.

The only real question is who faces (and defeats) soO in the finals.


You realize your Kong force doesn't align with conformal field theory, right? The module structure over that field would break down spacetime itself.

Who doesn't? Honestly its soO whos keeping me watching sc2. But let's be realistic hes not favoured to win this gsl. Since 2017 gsl s2 he lost 2 times vs Rogue, 3 times vs Dark and even against Losira at IEM Qualifiers. So he has to find again his previously invincible ZvZ form....

If he faces Maru that will be also tough. Dark is a better ZvT-er compared to soO and Maru will have Rogue as practice partner and thats a tremendous advantage. One thing would help soO, that there will be plenty of fresh and recent maru vods to analize and against Dark he must show his absolute best,he can't hold anything back.

On top of that it's unwise to count Stats out because he can always deliver and win. People say Stats is in a bad form, but imho its a 50-50%.
Why so serious?

You think the Kong force is constrained by such petty things as the laws of physics?

Stephen Hawking tried to express the Kong force in such terms, but alas he was unable to complete it.
