I'm not sure considering his form and the fact that Dark will likely be in his way.

Are you really that surprised?
He also avoided Scarlett/Reynor (who many times almost beat him already) and Special, who is the closest thing to a korean Terran. Not to mention Neeb, who already beat him this tournamet (and b4 blizzcon)..And also Lambo, who seems to be in good form.

The draw was shown live and completely random. There was no WCS style rigging. So yes, I'm surprised. Or rather disappointed.

He did not avoid Scarlett and Special. He will have to go through them or whomever beats them.

Reynor has never beaten Serral, and Serral is on the same side of the bracket as both special and scarlett.

He said almost beat him. Reynor went 3-2 into 3-4 against Serral so he could take him out in bo5 I guess.

Then finally, we shall have our Serral vs Maru Finals dream be almost fulfilled, except right before it happens, the power goes out and we have to cancel the Finals match.

Cause ya know, we will never be allowed to have our dream.

We got Maru Serral in a best of series last year. It was Maru 3-0.

You can't even say Serral wasn't in form at that moment as he had won a WCS and finished top 4 at Katowice or that TvZ was Terran favored. (Maru had to cheese out Dark in the last 2 games to win)

Playing SpeCial in the ro4 is the same as soO in a GSL finals: a free win.

Don’t count Scarlett out just yet. She’s beaten Special plenty of times before.
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

Yeha, it's disgusting, rigging level luck, how he didnt get his own group-winner or some other 2nd place finishers as his first opponent. And it s revolting how the completly randomly drawn bracket has just the 1 korean isntead of the 2 on his half.

And if that blatant favoritism / luck / cheating wasnt enough, he dodges Lambo as well, i mean untill the finals, cuz our Gemran boy who won literally nothing, gonna surely clean up the lower side of the bracket cuz he seems to be in good form.

Reynor's shape is even relatively worse than Serral's at the moment, I doubt he could win at the moment.

You guys just forgot to say Serral managed to avoid Drogo, SortOf, Rail and Toodming but probably that's because there are only other fifteen players left in the tournament.
The upper bracket seems less stacked but it would be foolish to think it's an easy one.

As for the ro16 draw, Serral could have had three hard matchups(the koreans), a challenging one(Scarlett) and three apparently easier opponents(Mana, Drogo, SortOf).

This is actually a really awesome bracket. But I’m pissed by the special/scarlett and Neeb/reynor matchups. Will be fun to watch, but also heartbreaking for me.

(Z)Serral 3-0 (P)MaNa
(Z)Dark 3-0 (Z)TooDming
(P)DnS 3-2 (Z)SortOf
(Z)Scarlett 3-2 (T)SpeCial
(T)Maru 3-1 (Z)Elazer
(P)Neeb 3-0 (Z)Reynor
(P)PtitDrogo 3-2 (Z)Lambo
(T)INnoVation 3-0 (P)Rail

That game again? It happened when Maru was starting to peak, months before Serral reached his best level; he clearly wasn't even the best zerg in the world at the time while Maru was on the way of becoming the best player in the world.

Everyone would have loved to see them play against at their peak form(which it was the case for bo1 in GSL vs the World; on the other hand, that game didn't have much at stake and didn't happen in a 1v1 tournament).

I mean Mana is a good match for him but at some point "avoid" isn't really a good term, it's not like Reynor/Special/Lambo/Scarlett are bad matchup for Serral.
It's kind of like saying that Dark dodge Elazer, sure he lost to him once but Dark would still be a big favorite.

Also: Maru lose before the round of 4 I think. INno may get to the final with a perfect record he has the absolute dream bracket

Serral got a disgustingly good half of the bracket. The players I'd give a good chance of beating him are all on the other half (Maru, INno, Neeb, Reynor). I guess Dark and Scarlett are tough but I don't see him losing a bo5 to either
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

Why do i get the vibe from you that you'd be posting this exact same comment if the bracket got mixed up and say, Serral had Inno, Reynor, Neeb on his side and Maru, Dark, Scarlett on the other side?

So as a reward for winning his group MaNa gets Serral and if he pulls a miracle, Dark. Luck wasn't on his side this day.

Well I could see him losing a bo5 to any of Neeb/INno/Maru/Reynor so probably not. Scarlett likes to choke even if her ZvZ style usually does well against Serral. And Dark's ZvZ usually isn't sharp enough to beat him.
