I partially agree with Olli, Zest beats Maru in the winner's match. Then Maru dominates Solar in the final match.

I'm really hoping for more than 1 Terran in the round of 8. This better be good!

Maru is only going to practice for protoss matches. Solar is the only one in the group who has even the slightest chance in hell against him because of this. It's the same advantage Zanster had. Actually, I take it back. He might only practice for Zest and lose to Patience because of it. But I think if there's one player in the group he won't lose to, it's Zest. That's the only player he might take at all seriously.

This group is so easy that Maru is going to practice only TvT for INnoVation, ey?

I was mostly joking, but I can see it happen. Zest is very good online right now, if that translates to offline performance then he can beat Maru.

I feel like this has been consistently said for the past year.
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

Probably because that's exactly what people have been saying for the past year.

Yes, but he kept getting eliminated by Zergs who everyone knew he was bad against even online. There's no distinct weakness like that now.

To an extent yeah. But his form online > offline was still significant in the other matchups. He frequently beats herO online for example yet managed to get sweeped by him two supertournaments in a row.

Solar has a terrible record against Maru. I love the guy, but I don't see him taking out Maru. Then again, it's a Bo3, so higher probability for upsets.

As for Zest, provided he has a great practice partner and practices, I can definitely see a him winning against Maru.
