Nobody cared about GSL vs the World. There's a reason Serral chooses not to go to Korea to play against the big boys in a preparation style tournament. It requires actual skill as opposed to marathon style. Everyone knows this. Its why GSL is considered more prestigious than Blizzcon/WCS/IEM Katowice

Nah GSL has been the B league since 2018. Serral came and conquered GSL twice. Just too ez for him and not worth his time and effort

Blizzcon and Katowice are kings

GSL was the golden standard back during Kespa era

Couldn't he say the same thing about you? I think GSL Code S is a legitimate test serral hasn't even attempted yet. It's a different style tournament and u can't say for sure it would go as smoothly.

What does Zerg actually have to prepare? Outside of the occasional map-specific cheese, it's... standard -> scout -> react to whatever the P or T player has prepared against you.

Also, lol @ Serral being afraid of the "big boys". He is the big boy

I’ve long wanted to see Serral give it a shot, and Reynor to try again. More for hype and seeing something different than feeling it’s a hoop they have to jump through to prove themselves.

And at this stage they’d also flesh out a tournament struggling with real depth like it never has before, it’s a win-win really.

Serral’s pretty well regarded by the top Korean players who actually have to play him, I’ll take their read on it:

Enchant: Speaking of this, I'm curious. You used to use green in the game. Why did you change it to white later.

Zest: I followed Serral because he did that.

Enchant: hahahaha, people always learn from strong players, even Zest.

Zest: It's a good habit.

Enchant: so how do you evaluate serral? Do you think he is the best player.

Zest: Of course.

Good read.
Thanks for explaining why Serral didnt participate.
Him not qualifying for such a big event is quite unexpected.




He could have participated all he had to do was go there.

GSL was the golden standard back during Kespa era



TOP 16 Korean code S players are all capable of taking convincing series against Serral and Reynor , in Europe that number is near 0.

You also forget Zergs massively favored in online play because they don't need good micro just good army movement.


Rogue if he is not on his A game get's instantly eliminated from GSL, happened many times over the years, that tournament is brutal in how high the skill level is on average across every player.


Foreign SC2 has never had a higher level then Korean SC2 , we just have a Serral and a Reynor who can compete with them and the rest would never win a stacked Korean tournament by a long shot so yeah, was fun schooling you.

Saying Serral and Reynor are the only ones who truly compete with KR players isn't wrong it's a fact. Look at every single open qualifier event from the last few years. KR was still extremely dominant in every way besides Serral/Reynor winning sometimes. I don't think KR has ever made up less than half of a top 16 in any open event that wasn't forced that way due to region locking. At Katowice the worst they've ever done in top 12 representatives is 8. Foreigners would still literally never win open events if it wasn't for Serral/Reynor.
