Disappointed about the lack of promising to show more good games for his fans.

Great interview otherwise, props to the King in the North.

Serral improves by thinking about the game
Are we sure he isn't an AI?

Considering he showed barely any emotion after winning it, it is possible.

Really nice that they asked about his training regimen, i kinda thought he s smurfin on the Korean ladder cuz he found some good connection somehow, that s how he s so good...
But it s not the case? he s practicing on EU ladder and became the best ZvT player by THINKING about the friggin mu?
Holy hell, he s either not telling the truth or that s just flat out insane.

Aligulac.com: Maru is 3–3 (50.00%) in games and 1–2 (33.33%) in matches against Serral

So, technically, Serral is slightly ahead in h2h and thus better

Maru leads 3-1 in offline maps. The only 2-0 victory for Serral was from IEM Katowice EU qualifier where Maru played from 200+ms ping.

The fact he beat him and won the tournament they were both in is a pretty good indicator for people who have eyes and brains.

An invitational tournament, a BO1 (Serral started his final series losing 2-0 against Stats and he still won isn't it?), and Maru has 2 GSL CONSECUTIVE titles and a WESG (where Serral actually lost against him). Tell me again, how is Serral better?

Should have asked him about his pov on possibly competing in code s, missed opportunity!

Serral's thoughts on eu practice vs korean one is interesting because so far it looks like only he could and possibly can achieve this level while mostly practicing in a weaker region.

It's been done in the past just not consistantly. Taeja comes to mind, so does Snute.
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

The region is not that much weaker, the top is slightly worse but there are a higher number of decent players afaik.
