Scarlett seems to be one of the few Zergs that have Serral's number (including soO of course), but I'm not sure I see Scarlett beating the Terran.
her form against terran looks quite twisted as she went 1-2 in this match-up at IEM lost to TY and uThermal but beat Special twice in a row including on this tournament

Ah, the long-awaited TvZ finals, I think the last time (premier) was indeed las year's WESG with Maru vs Dark?
|
This is gonna be a great semis.

maru vs serral will be sick. hope maru will win, cause otherwise the insufferable serral fans boys like dave will be popping off and demanding that the bullying of serral stop (see power rank thread). i'm also ok with scarlett winning that'd be awesome too, there are no insufferable scarlett fan boys

So if we get a Maru-Serral finals there is gonna be some interesting voices from the community:
Maru/Serral fanboys: "you know what, WESG is not such a bad tournament after all"
Kinda reminds me of TL fans after that IBP Masters shitshow in CSGO earlier this year. (but tbf WESG actually looks pretty decent compared to that event)

It doesn't matter if we get Serral/Maru final or not. Nobody will be satisfied with the outcome anyway.
If Maru wins it will be because Serral was sick. If Serral wins it will be because Maru doesn't care about non-Korean events.
And if they face each other in a 3rd place match, the loser will be justified as not caring about 3rd place match, obviously.
There is no point in watching this tournament anymore. Everything is pointless.
+ Show Spoiler +
btw if you didn't realize yet, soO is still a Kong, because his win at IEM wasn't a Korean league.

This is exactly my sentiment.

Serral is at 666 losses on Aligulac. His 666th map lost was against Dark. Now that sounds pretty... dark.

Noo, not really. Maru winning would result in Maru being canonized with every single Serral's accomplishment being diminished("you see? He only won because he dodged Maru, that foreigner scrub"); Inno winning is somehow better even if that would crown him GOAT in the eyes of his fans.

Even if he does not care for non Korean events I'm pretty sure Maru likes money, so that would be a very bad argument if he were to lose a hypothetical grand final vs Serral.

BlizzCon was almost twice IEM's prize and people still said Maru didn't care.

Nobody said Maru didn't care about BlizzCon without trolling. Where did you see that?

A recent one, Frost implied that yesterday.

Nah he does not care about money. He only cares about the prestige of GSL. Ask his fanbois, they will explain it to you

Although I am INnoVation fan, I don't think you need to be one to think INnoVation is the GOAT. That said, I think the whoever wins the semifinal matches, the final will be epic.

Maru and Serral are two of the three elite players left at this event (compared to the 10 ish of blizzcon and 15 ish at katowice) and I still feel like we won't actually see them play eachother.
I think you are underrating Innovation tbh, even though his results have not been amazing lately I would still rate him as an elite player!

That's the reason I hope Serral will win:
cause otherwise the insufferable Maru fan boys will be popping off.
Also I'm ok (and I root for him) that Innovation will beat Maru. Because there are no insufferable Inno fanboys and he's a better player than Maru anyway.

that's what I'm worrying about yea Serral is overall the better bet in his match against Scarlett but its not a sure win but if Scarlett wins her zvt isn't looking so good right even though she herself looks to be in a very calm and peaceful place. so if she makes it to the final while she has always chance just a very very uphill to climb should that happen.
