Dark and then Rogue (if he doesn't tank the ro8 as usual) are pretty much the worst possible bracket for TY currently.

My money is on a Rogue-Maru finals.

If he beat Dark Rogue would be a lot less scary.

Also Rogue is 0-10 in Ro8 matches of Korean league tournaments so maybe don't put your money on anything until after the Ro8

I mean honestly would you be the guy who lets Rogue into the Ro4, knowing not even Curious and Neeb lost to him?

I’d be enjoying seeing Ragnarok, KeeN, and Zest more if Maru wasn’t still in it, this is basically the phase of GSL where he’s reached his safe point is and basically guaranteed his win, isn’t it?

Sucks the tension out of it for me, my cynical sick brain can only view these games under a “just waiting to lose to Maru,” lens.

Oh GOMTvT when will your scars heal.

Kinda feels like TY has a very good chance here.

The TY vs. Dark matchup is I feel like pretty much "Who's playing Maru in the finals," and I think that TY has a really great shot at winning Code S finally if he beats Dark in a few days.

If only beating Dark wasn't the hardest thing for TY in SC2.

Okay well I change that for you then. IF Dark chokes and he doesn't manage to choke harder.
sOs is best

Ragnarok won his group just to play against Maru in the ro8

Yes, it was kinda implied that all that was based on Rogue not Rogue'ing it

I'm pretty sure Rogue would take out Dark if he gets his shit together for Code S.

Rogue would easily beat Zest or Dark if this wasn't a ro8 match.
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

Well if it was an online event it would still be a win for Zest since he's on a 7 series winning streak against Rogue.

Lets face the reality... Rogue will just crumble as usual Besides Zest is terrible outside PvP but he seems to have Rogues number. Beats him every time online, so he definitely has a shot.

Zest is nowhere near as bad as people here seem to think, could see him winning gsl if TY beats Dark and Trap wins the other side of the bracket.

So he just has to dodge the best terran player, the two best protoss players, and the best zerg players to win this season. I can agree with that

Just have to say after another WCS sweep.....Would any of this current top-8 GSL players be able to win Serral in best of 5 or 7 ? I cant see any of them having a chance. Even not Maru, since his form has not been anything of his prime lately.

Maru's chances just got a lot better...

I think Maru would prefer TY, Zest, or Trap. Late game Z is really hard to beat and Ragnarok has been having an awesome year.

TY is literally top 1 on the list of players Maru doesn't want to play against ever.

Actually no Terran wants to play TY.

I won't argue against that, but I'm pretty sure the protoss option is better then the Zergs option. Is there any protoss scarier to Maru then any GSL zerg?

Trap is on a 15-series PvT win streak in best of 3+s. Since his loss to Maru in the ro4 on April 6th, he's 27-3 in the match up. Rogue is 10-9 since April 6th in ZvT and a few of those were against players who are nobodies at the moment.

If you extend it beyond players in the ro8, I imagine sOs is #1 on the list of players Maru doesn't want to play ever.


Maru beat Trap so easily there that Tasteless remarked "this is like someone who is just much higher level in an RPG"
