It's just a way to hype him up. Gotta just ignore that tiny detail lol. I can't believe Maru hasn't won more championships. This guy is too good.

Okay thanks for clearing that. Maru should have won IEM tappei 2015, at least.

It's crazy that Maru has been playing in GSL for 7 1/2 years, won both SSL and OSL, got to the GSL ro4 five times, and only now made it to the final.

Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

Wait are Tastosis casting this? Remotely? Since it seems to overlap with SC20 event in California.

GSL Ro4 Maru vs Dark were some of best games of this year, easily my favorite series. (Hell, both of ther recent series were amazing). Maru Fighting!

Oh, and Dark was impressive as hell too. I don't know how Maru pulled out two of those wins.. such long struggles.

I'm assuming they'll cast that from korea? I can't imagine the SC20 event has higher priority than GSL final.

Should be a good final series. Hopefully as good as IEM 2017 finals.
Neither party will be missed.

Seems like SC20 even has higher priority. They confirmed that they wont be casting finals.

I guess it's blizzard's decision not theirs. Probably Rapid and Noregret doing the GSL final in that case. Maybe Wolf or Valdes if we're lucky.

Either way, GSL finals without Tastosis is just weird.

they said it themselves in the ASL broadcast: "there will be another GSL final but there will never ever be another 20th anniversary event for starcraft"

Fuck, I'm sad about this. I've come to like Rapid, but no Tastosis for the GSL finals? That feels pretty wrong.
