It's heated as it is felt deeply!
The key is the weight attributed to GSL when compared to WCS and BlizzCon, as mere stats are undoubtly in Serral's favor; to me(us Serral supporters) the higher difficulty of GSL is still not enough to outweight the number of Serral's achievements and his dominance, whereas for Maru's supporters(korean elitists?) GSL is so much harder than 4 wins are better than 7 triumphs.

Since Serral doesn't want to go to Korea apparently, I am now the biggest fan of region unlock(or, alternatively, of a GSL forbidden to foreigners even if i strongly prefer the first option).

I'd rather the latter simply because if we unlock now, it won't change anything for serral, but I can easily envision WCS being 6/2 kr - foreigners from the round of 8, like blizzcon. Imo the problem is not the region block per se but that we have few global events.

Region-unlock could dissolve so many problems right now. Maybe even reinvigorate the korean scene with more options for price money, sponsors on a global scale, more competitive WCS Circuits, ...

Blizz really needs to think hard on this

Regardless something needs to be done to aid the korean scene, you can't just leave them in their current position.

The form Dave4 is using is humurous but probably could appear disrespectful.

He is saying that while the poll shows a significant majority of pro-Serral votes, the actual posts in this discussion are even(and i'd add that the pro-Maru posters are in higher number or so it appears to me); this means that either many of the pro-Maru users didn't vote in the poll or that they simply are very vocal.


One could even say it's somewhat disrespectful considering we're on a thread about a serral victory. Imagine if you graduate and people come out of nowhere to tell you your university isn't even that good. Like, c'mon.

It's more similar to someone graduating and people come out of nowhere to tell you "wow you graduated from the best university in the world, you're a genius" and then others stepping in with "wait this other university is just as good/ slightly better"
Serral fans started this with all the goat/bonjwa crap


Personally in terms of achievements I think Maru is clearly ahead of Maru (3 GSLs are just more impressive than 2 weekenders (3 if you count HSC))
But the thing that speaks for Serral is his unbeaten streak which is incredibly impressive. Maybe if Serral had competed in GSL his achievements could rival Serrals but that's on him for not playing in GSL. He could have if he wanted.
As it is imo Serral showed higher dominance but Maru has better achievements.


Maru is indeed clearly ahead of Maru and don't even make me think at how Serral's achievements could rival Serral's if he played GSL! I laughed alot xD



whoops. didn't notice the typo
Many of the coolest moments in sc2 happen due to worker harassment
