Rogue has to be one of the only players that prepares for his opponents.

His finals are always awful games.

Yeah, I wonder who did Maru practice against to prepare for the Finals. Because DRG just arent at the same level with Rogue in term of ZvT, and Dark is Rogue teammate so I dont think he would help Maru to practice at all.

Especially with soO gone, there's such a big gap between Rogue, Dark, and the rest of the Korean zergs that it isn't even funny. Now that those two are on the same team, I don't envy anyone having to prepare for either of them.

Maru didn't need a big practice partner though. Rogue didn't win because he prepared the best possible ling bane muta. He won because he took Maru ofguard. And not even Dark could have prepared Maru for that. It doesn't matter how good your ZvT is if you don't go for roach 1-1 pushes every time.

Rogue took over the initiative and that's the Maru's thing - being aggressive and dictating the tempo of the game.

Edit< Also DRG is one of the best TvZ players out there, but it still appears Rogue won the psychological part of the game which really doesn't rely on the "quality" of the player.
I imagine France should be able to take this unless Lilbow is busy practicing for Starcraft III. | KadaverBB is my fairy ban mother.
