Would love for this semifinals to go the distance, too, but Maru in either five or seven games. It will either be 4-1 Maru or goes the distance.

It will be a hard one for Maru, but I think he can do it, the G5L trophy has to be won someday.

As much as I love Trap, I reckon Maru has it

infamously, he gave up a disastrous upset to sOs in the semifinals of BlizzCon 2018 after an otherwise dominant year


This was actually the quarterfinals. sOs then lost to Stats who lost to Serral in the final.
There's no sense crying over every mistake. You just keep trying till you run out of cake.

Hoping for great games but for Maru to take it in the end, what else did you expect from a Maru fanboy =D
Maru, Bomber, TY, Dear, Classic, DeParture and Rogue!

It looks like it should be a crushing Maru victory, but he has a weird way of self-sabotaging the best storylines... we'll see how it goes
AdministratorHey HP can you redo everything youve ever done because i have a small complaint?

I want Trap to win a GSL, but placed my Liquibet on Maru because my impression is he is stronger in the matchup at the moment.
Stopped watching ESL content in 2022 when the company was acquired by Savvy Gaming Group. Also object to sponsorships by the U.S. Air Force. Thanks for the lively discussions about sportswashing. StarCraft II is not for me anymore.

I was saying it may happen and it did. Long time teammates, practising together, sOs read Maru like a book he knows from start to finish. There were moves you would have reported the other player for maphacking.

Sadly it's the teamkill nature of SC2. Or, used to be. Wouldn't say it nowadays.

Anyway, GO MARU GO. Either Rogue gets another title - fine with me, patchzerg gonna patch Or Maru gets the cursed G5L trophy - even more fine with me. Worst case scenario Trap gets a GSL title. Fine with me.

This can't go wrong!
I imagine France should be able to take this unless Lilbow is busy practicing for Starcraft III. | KadaverBB is my fairy ban mother.

Rooting for Maru. But I'm a big fan of Rogue and Trap too.
May the best lad win this time.

Maru to win only to have G5L cruelly denied by party-pooper Rogue - most tragic storylines always prevail!

I had forgotten about the "party pooper Rogue" story line. It seems very probable here.
