He beat him, yes, but the last three matches have been razor thin either way. Demolish is not an appropriate word to describe this. Budding rivalry would be better.
It should be noted that Serral was playing sick all week too. Not an opinion he said so himself. And he still pushed Inno to 7 games.

I’m not making excuses. Inno played better. But you can’t discount that either. Part of me is wondering if we didn’t just watch the top two players go at it. Right now I have Inno ranked above Serral but do you see anyone else close to either of them?
What I really want to see is the depth of the Circuit catch up to the depth of Korea. I mean right now we can’t predict the GSL but we are pretty sure who the top 4-8 foreign players are. I’d like it to be to the point where it’s at least a 50 50 chance. Other than Serral it feels right now about 80-20 Korea favored. And only a few players can even claim that much.

There was nothing unfair in that final. Serral lost to better player. If he was still suffering from sickness we all can be only thankful he even bothered to come to the tournament and managed play well enough.
If Serral was still sick/not in full health it makes some sense he was wearing three Ence-sponsored shirts, he had to then unwear when pressures began to mount. :D
There have been some 'lentsu' (seasonal flu-virus epidemic as we say in Finnish) around lately in Finland, and when suffering from it currently myself (some 2 weeks and counting) I can very well understand if that may have had some impact to Serral's overall performance. It's not excuse for the loss, but it would've been enough good excuse to skip whole tournament. Of course only if he had really that same virus.

The point is how Mariano choose to express his happiness in regard of Inno's victory; in a sea of polite and joyous "well played", "eternal champion" etc, we find him insulting Inno's opponent by saying Serral was "destroyed" and "mentally broken".
Such a language would be inappropriate even if the finals would have been a clean 4-0 sweep with Inno playing leagues above Serral and it becomes clearly offensive considering the series went to the full seven games(with Serral even winning the macro game, unlike it happened at IEM the last time they faced).
Mariano is becoming like Rodya, feeling the need to convince us the warped reality he perceives is indeed the truth.
Inno was the better player, but I'd say inno was closer to his peak performance than what I think serral can achieve with more practice, serral's ZvT just doesn't look as sharp has his other matchups, but we know he's capable of more, and I'm not even talking about about him being ill, just his raw potential.

To be fair, there’s not a whole lot of quality ZvT practice in his region... Maybe he’ll be more motivated to try a GSL after this? One can hope 😉

Yah not upvoting his post..pretty obvious bait there...just downvoting any extra reasons..other than inno played out of his mind to earn the win. Obv was a super close tight series that could have went either way..anyone saying otherwise is just mad for some reason.

The only broken mentality here is yours, apparently.
Can we all just acknowledge that soO is the greatest player in the world? He was dominating Innovation over and over on the ladder the day of and night before the Inno vs Serral final. And he defeated Serral at IEM to go on and win that tournament.

Rogue, who defeated soO twice in GSL, is clearly the greatest player in the world.
I honestly don't think any other Terran could have defeated Serral in a Bo7 at this point. Innovation's style is perfectly suited to it. Amazing games.

Close to either of them... Yes soO defeated both of them in IEM and GSL. And there are tons of players in Korea who can take down Serral and Inno.
